I’m not having any luck with the SL 7.2 .iso images published on the 26th.
When using the Everything .iso and the cdrom install method, the packages log
has lines like
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/$slreleasever/$basearch/os/repodata/repomd.xml:
[Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found
The install completes but the updates are not applied.
The relevant Kickstart lines are
cdrom
repo --name=sl-security
--mirrorlist="http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/mirrorlist/sl-security-7.txt";
repo --name=sl-fastbugs
--mirrorlist="http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/mirrorlist/sl-fastbugs-7.txt”
When using the net install .iso, and the url install method the anaconda log
has the line
23:01:26,368 INFO anaconda: setting
<pyanaconda.ui.gui.spokes.source.SourceSpoke object at 0x7fbb17b96650> status
to: Error downloading package metadata
The relevant Kickstart lines are
url
--mirrorlist=http://ftp2.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/mirrorlist/sl-base-7.txt
repo --name=sl-security
--mirrorlist="http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/mirrorlist/sl-security-7.txt";
repo --name=sl-fastbugs
--mirrorlist="http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/mirrorlist/sl-fastbugs-7.txt";
The install stalls on the first hub.
Any suggestions?
