Hi, my name is Jerry Amundson. I've been involved with the Redhat, Fedora, and CentOS distros in various forms since 2002 (Redhat 7.3). I'm working on a commercial product based on Fedora 15, and my responsibility is it's migration to Fedora 20. For the last few weeks, a critical aspect of my planning and development has been based on a key feature that I've read about on several current Fedora web sites, and had understood to be true all along - that anaconda can do unattended installation with an iso and a properly set kickstart file. Quoting the /Anaconda fp.o wiki: "Installation can be scripted with kickstart to provide a fully unattended installation that can be duplicated on scores of machines." Sadly, I realized within the past few days, this is *only* true with a WIRED network connection attached to the machine!!!!!! [1] I'm still evaluating the scope of this setback to my project. o As of today, the fix has been committed, which is good. (thank you, rvykydal!) [2] o The fix targets RHEL 7rc3 and Fedora 21, which unfortunately doesn't help my use case. So now, more of my time is required to shoehorn in a custom anaconda package for F20 to accomplish what I need, and I'm darn unhappy about it. Thanks for listening, jerry [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1061497 [2] https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/anaconda.git/commit/?id=d8c4d790940cfbb642468f426949b8906bc7e793 _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
