Product: Installation
Component: Installation
Summary: "truly minimal" install onto loopback is unbootable,
even with patch.pl
Version: 1.809
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Problem: If a "truly minimal" install is done onto loopback, with the patch to
make sure that aes.o is used, the result does not boot properly (the bootloader
is either not installed or not installed properly). This problem does not affect
typical non-minimal installations, nor does it affect non-loopback "truly
minimal" installs.
Workaround 1: Choose to select packages, and find and click on "grub" to add it
to the otherwise "truly minimal" package set. The resulting installation then
boots properly.
Workaround 2: On the summary screen, click the bootloader button, then click
Next to go through the screens without actually changing anything. The installer
pulls another package (I assume grub) off the CD when this is done, and the
resulting installation boots properly.
