Anaconda problem with Fedora 18/19

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello folks,

This is my first posting to this list. I have an own Fedora(16,17,18,19) spin. My customers have reported that F18, F19 based kick start installation fails soon with "black screen" or "no video" and then it just hangs. I got information that usually adding "xdriver=vesa nomodeset" will help to black screen problems.  After adding basic video parameters, then installation goes a little bit further, but then it crashes with message: Error accessing file for config file:///tmp/anaconda-yum.conf. Please see the picture from http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=291451. The file tmp/anaconda-yum.conf exists and the content looks like reasonable:

8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----

[main]
cachedir=/tmp/yum.cache
keepcache=0
logfile=/tmp/yum.log
metadata_expire=never
pluginpath=/usr/lib/yum-plugins,/tmp/updates/yum-plugins
pluginconfpath=/etc/yum/pluginconf.d,/tmp/updates/pluginconf.d
plugins=1
reposdir=/etc/yum.repos.d,/etc/anaconda.repos.d,/tmp/updates/anaconda.repos.d,/tmp/product/anaconda.repos.d

8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----

I can install my F18 spin successfully to Dell Optiplex GX620 Desktop and Dell PowerEdge 540 hw. Usually dvd based installation fails with HP Proliant servers.  My older F16 and F17 spins have worked fine with all HP hw.

I would be very grateful for any help.

Br,
Jari
