Hey Guys,
I'm trying to use the RHEL5 EAL4 IBM kickstart for s390x, and having
issues during the installation. When the process begins I get prompted
to validate my installation media source. Regardless of my input
(enter, white space, full value) the script only processes the first
character of my input. Example:
Using volume group 'VolGroup01'.
(Answer '!' at any prompt to get an interactive shell)
Installation source
[http://192.168.5.216/kickstart/dist/ks-rhel-s390x-server-5-u3/] ?
(HITTING ENTER, OR GIVING THE FULL URL AGAIN, HERE)
sh-3.2#
(HITTING ENTER, OR GIVING THE FULL URL AGAIN, HERE)
After which, the install errors out saying "invalid installation
source", specifically:
+ die unsupported installation source ' '
+ echo_user FATAL: unsupported installation source ' '
+ echo FATAL: unsupported installation source ' '
Note that in the above snip, there is a white space between the two '
marks. In reality, the kickstart script only captures the first
character that is inputed.
In the kickstart script, here is the code that performs this check
gen_instsrc () {
local Src
Src="$INSTSRC"
case "$Src" in
cdrom*) Src="cdrom"
;;
nfs:*) Src=$(echo "$Src" | sed
's/nfs:\(.*\):\(.*\)/nfs --server=\1 --dir=\2/')
;;
hd:*) Src=$(echo "$Src" | sed
's/hd:\/\/\([^\/]*\)\/\(.*\)/harddrive --partition=\1 --dir=\2/')
;;
http:*|ftp:*)
Src="url --url $Src"
;;
*) die "unsupported installation source '$Src'"
;;
esac
Note that I receive the same error regardless of inputed choice [cdrom,
nfs, http, ftp...].
Has anyone been able to use the common criteria kickstarts? I can't find
anything on google about this being a known problem.
My full log is attached. If helpful, a screen capture of me going
through all this is available at
