List, In order to explore the behavior of Anaconda, and pave the way for changes which would allow one to install from a device specified by it's "LABEL" or "UUID", I am currently trying to install from a known configuration with a specified hard drive. I am installing with my kickstart file inside of my initrd, and my installation media is a hard drive connected to the system via USB. My kernel line (in grub) is as follows: "kernel vmlinuz ks=file:/kickstarts/install.ks stage2=hd:/dev/sdd1:/images/stage2.img". As near as I can tell, this is a valid installation method, with valid syntax. I am, however, unable to perform the install. The error I am seeing indicates that the system was unable to mount the stage2 image because the loop device it was attempting to use (/dev/loop0) does not exist. Here is the actual text of the error: 16:04:21 INFO : mounting device sdd1 for hard drive install 16:05:51 INFO : Path to stage 2 image is /mnt/isodir/images/stage2.img 16:05:51 ERROR : failed to mount loopack device /dev/loop0 on /mnt/runtime as /tmp/install.img: /dev/loop0: No such file or directory 16:05:54 INFO : unmounting loopback /mnt/runtime /dev/loop0 16:05:54 ERROR : LOOP_CLR_FD failed for /mnt/runtime /dev/loop0: Bad file descriptor Can anyone please help me with this. Am I doing something wrong, or does this code just not work? Has anyone else had success with a similar setup? Thank you, Jason Maestri -- Jason C.
