I do exactly that. That is the reason why I am so confused. Why is the
SL6 installation trying to contact an outside repository when the
installation repository is inside the company network?
Anaconda tries to download a file from an SL security repository. It's
come up on the list recently in the context of a kickstart install.
This is an anaconda issue. I reported it as a bug on the SL-devel list,
however I have yet to hear any progress on what has happened.
The outcome is that without a live network connection, the install will fail
- even on the standalone install DVDs.
Maybe Connie can comment on this?
The sl-release rpm contains /etc/yum.repos.d/sl.repo . The anaconda in
SL 6.1 was using the information from this file in a different way than in
SL 6.0 . I am researching this issue.
Thanks for reporting this .
