Problem with finding kickstart file from the cdrom

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

 



Hello,

I was using a kickstart distro with kernel 2.6.18. Recently I have decided to change this distro cd to use kernel 3.4.52. I have prepared all new rpm files and produced iso.

I am testing the iso file on proxmox environment with qemu. With tha same guest vm the oldu distro succfully boots and find kickstart file and installs. With the new iso I have problems.

"unable to find the kickstart file...."
cdrom:/isolinux/ssd.cfg

In tty3 I can follow:
[    1.620980] sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0
[    1.621253] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 33554432 512-byte logical blocks: (17.1 GB/16.0 GiB)
[    1.621359] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off
[    1.621401] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
[    1.628975] scsi 6:0:1:0: CD-ROM            QEMU     QEMU DVD-ROM     1.4. PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
[    1.628978]  sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 < sda5 >
[    1.629546] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
[    1.630073] usb 1-1: new full-speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd
[    1.634874] sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 4x/4x cd/rw xa/form2 tray
[    1.636220] cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

When I add loglovel-debug in to anaconda boot cmdline I can see error log.

ERROR: No CDROM devices found!


I have also checked the previous iso file. It was correctly recognizing cdrom as hdb while problematic new kernel iso recognizes it as sr0 device.

hdb: QEMU DVD-ROM, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14

mntloop loop0 on /mnt/runtime as ....

got url from cdrom://hdb:/mnt/source


If I write ks url as "hd:scd0:/isolinux/ssd.cfg" then anaconda mounts and reads the ks file.


getting kickstart file from harddrive

Loading ks from device scd0 on path /isolinux/ssd.cfg

...

file copied to /tmp/ks.cfg


However ks.cfg includes "install" and "cdrom" lines. Then it againg tries to find Cdrom and gives error.


This problem occurs in stage1 and this stage does not enable tty2 debug shell and sshd options. So I have limited debug options.


Anaconda version is 11.1.2.168 , kernel version 3.4.52.


What do you suggest on the problem?
