Note: Install on a multiboot test system, separate boot partitions
for each distro.
1. Normal startup booting from cd 1.
2. To partition, used create custom layout. Anaconda did not see all
of the logical volumes nor all of the raid disks. Had to use a
terminal and re-create them. All had been in existence before the
install.
File this against Anaconda
3. Install failed when it decided that the logical volume mounted for
/home "probably" wasn't formated or some other error--reboot.
4. Reinstall repeating step 2 above, but didn't mount anything from
the logical volumes except for the ones originally seen.
5. Rest of install seemed normal.
Above in bug 174047.
6. Reboot showed a strange screen with double icons, and lots of junk.
Possibly audit output.
7. xorg.conf showed the device driver as "vesa." Corrected to
radeon, restarted X and all was well.
Note: I have installed every FC Test since 1 and never has this
happened. Haven't filled a bug, but will. Where? Anaconda or X?
Anaconda.
8. Selinux was activated even tho I explicitly unselected it during
install. Bug??
Anaconda again.
9. Yum update...dependencies not resolved due to libslang-utf8.so.1
being needed by multiple programs. Took some doing, but --excluding
the selinux items, etc., got system up-to-date.
10. Reboot to test and initrd barfed, couldn't find my root partition
which is on a LV. Rebooted with install kernel and initrd, forgot
Selinux was on. Rebooted with selinux=0, old kernel and then on to 11.
Yum remove slrn newt would have a workaround. No need to exclude SELinux.
11. Shut off selinux, removed mkinitrd-5.0.11 (--nodeps), installed
mkinitrd-5.0.10 from install CD, recreated new initrd for the 1707
kernel, rebooted and all is well again. Have seen a similar problem
with mkinitrd and will update that bug (169059).
12. All in all, things are not bad and installed system looks nice.
Everything on this test box is on LVs, except the boot partitions, so
this will be a good test.
12. Good work all you dudes who made it possible.
Welcome. Thank you for the reports. Keep them coming!
13. Still testing and having fun between cooking the turkey, eating
the turkey, and visiting with family.
Happy Thanksgiving.
regards
Rahul
