Hi there all you happy rawhide users! I need some souls to test the
rescuecd.iso that got plopped into
<mirror>/fedora/linux/development/isos/
Right now it is only i386, tomorrow we should see x86_64, and I'm
working on getting a ppc/ppc64 one created too. I just would like
somebody to boot up that bad boy and see if they can get into rescue
environments on their systems, including mounting the install root. I
don't believe there is a bugzilla component for rescuecd, so I'll take
bug reports in email for right now. Thanks!
Having probs with thunderbird, so lets see if I can get a msg out.
Cannot use the Continue or Read-Only selections, can only use the skip
button. Continue and Read-Only causes the following error, hand
transcribed (partial since it scrolled off the screen and what was left
did not have CRs).
File "user/lib/anaconda/rescue.py"' line 38, in progressWindow
return ProgressWindow(self.screen,title,text,total)
TypeError: __init__ () takes exactly 6 arguments (5 given)
Install exited abnormally
then some msgs about can now reboot.
When selecting skip and going to a shell, could not chroot to a good
installation because none of the raidsets were started and therefor none
of the LVs the good installations were on could be mounted.
Had to use mdadm to assemble the arrays. LVM then saw the LVs but I had
to activate them. Once all of this was done, was able to mount the good
installation and bind dev, sys and proc to it and chroot. Did not try
to do much more except on a whim startx which failed since the radeon
module x wanted was part of the rescue /lib/modules (I think).
Could a raid autorun be added and scan for logical volumes? If so,
great. Otherwise, useable as a rescue CD with the manual labor described.
