I'm struggling with a strange issue. I'm trying to create a
self-installer environment based on F10, grub, local ISO and kickstart:
- created a /dev/sda5 filesystem and copied the DVD ISO onto this
- extracted the images/install.img file onto /dev/sda5
- created a grub.conf:
title Install F10 kickstart
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz ks=hd:sda1/ks.cfg repo=hd:/dev/sda5:/iso
initrd /initrd.img
- in the kickstart I defined the hd path:
harddrive --partition=/dev/sda5 --dir=/iso
When I started the installer, it stopped almost with the same issue at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473351: anaconda can't find
install.img
Here's the anaconda's relevant log:
09:45:23 INFO : Searching for file on path /tmp/mnt/ks.cfg

superblock on /dev/loop0,

(could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
But when anaconda asks me and I give exactly the same repo path to it
(sda5, /iso dir), the installation continues well:
09:45:48 INFO : partition /dev/sda5 selected

Am I wrong?
