I have been using 2.4.0beta2 for a while successfully. Wishing to keep up with
cobbler's evoluation, this evening I decided to try (in a fresh SL 6.3 KVM
guest) 2.4.0 beta 3.
Upon importing Fedora 17 x86_64, I immediately noticed that the distro object
has a new attribute:
(A) 2.4.0 beta2
[root@cobbler ~]# cobbler distro report --name=fedora17-x86_64

(B) 2.4.0 beta 3
[root@sl0 ~]# cobbler distro report --name=fedora17-x86_64
Name : fedora17-x86_64
Architecture : x86_64
TFTP Boot Files : {}

Kernel Options : {'repo': '$tree'}
Kernel Options (Post Install) : {}

The Kerneal Options now has {'repo': '$tree'} which now causes koan to fail.
See below the virt-install output by koan:
- ['virt-install', '--connect', 'qemu:///system', '--name', 'zalb0', '--ram',
'512', '--vcpus', '1', '--autostart', '--vnc', '--virt-type', 'kvm',
'--machine', 'pc',
'--extra-args=ks=http://192.168.123.2/cblr/svc/op/ks/system/zalb0 ksdevice=link
repo=$tree lang= kssendmac ', '--location',
'http://192.168.123.2/cblr/links/fedora17-x86_64/', '--arch', 'x86_64',
'--os-variant', 'fedora17', '--disk',
'path=/dev/vg/zalb0,size=5,bus=virtio,driver_type=raw', '--network',
'bridge=br0,model=virtio,mac=00:16:3e:14:13:99', '--network',
'bridge=virbr1,model=virtio,mac=00:16:3e:3f:9c:ed', '--wait', '0',
'--noautoconsole']
Note that the unsubstituted repo=$tree after the '--extra-args'.
I checked the man page but didn't see any clues as to where to set the tree
parameter. cobbler system dumpvars also shows this unsubstituted parameter. I
would be appreciative of any hints.
Regards,
