Hello everybody,
I am trying to resolve an issue about anaconda but I need some clues in
order to do that. I am building a custom Fedora Distribution. The
installation is made using anaconda. For the kernel, I made my own RPM
with my specific spec file.
My RPM seems to be OK : when I install it, mkinitrd is created and it is
possible for me to boot on the kernel installed with this RPM.
But when I put this RPM on my CD and when I try to make a fresh
installation, the initrd file is not generated and as a consequence, it
is impossible for me to boot on the kernel.
I tried to look at the anaconda code but I am not a python specialist.
That's why I would want to know what is the necessary condition for
anaconda to create the initrd file while the installation.
When I searched on the code, I found that the initrd is created when
some modules are present (foundModule variable set to 1 which launchs
the recreateInitrd function) but I can't find precisely what is needed
in order to modify my spec file.
Does anybody can give me more precisions about this issue ?
Thank your for your answers
Best Regards,
Olivier BONHOMME
