genhdlist aborts with a traceback that points to one package. I run dependency-check.py and it says "possible problem with package <its_name>". I delete the package name from the comps file and run genhdlist again. Aborts with a different package identified. I delete it from comps. Run genhdlist again, same thing except ANOTHER package. And so on. And so on. -- ---------- vince.skahan@xxxxxxxxxx -------------- Connexion by Boeing - Cabin Network -----Original Message----- From: Liza Alenchery [mailto:lalenchery@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, June 21, 2002 8:41 AM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: minimally changing rh72 disk-1 What is the error you are getting?

I did a minimal test, where I mounted the rh72 cd-1 as /mnt/cdrom, cd'd there, and did "cp -a . /rh72" to try to slurp all the contents to spinning disk. I changed nothing (no steps 2-3 above), and ran 'genhdlist' but anaconda aborts complaining about a package. I ran check-repository.py (after commenting out the include todo line) and it reports possible problems with the same package. Note that if I run genhdlist against /mnt/cdrom it appears to work (returns immediately saying nothing) and if I run pkgorder against /mnt/cdrom it returns a good list. How could a totally 'un'-modified rh72 disk1 that was simply copied to spinning disk fail genhdlist ? Am I missing something here ? -- ---------- vince.skahan@xxxxxxxxxx -------------- Connexion by Boeing - Cabin Network _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list _______________________________________________ Kickstart-list mailing list Kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/kickstart-list
