Dear all,
I have a channel in spacewalk which is of architecture type PPC. It
appears that when creating a channel-ppc and channel-ppc64 both result
in a channel of architecture type PPC. I had expected the channel-ppc
to create a PPC channel and channel-ppc64 to create a PPC64 channel.
I can't imagine that hosting PPC64 packages in a PPC channel normally
causes an issue. However when bare metal kickstarting a PPC64 host from
a PPC channel, it appears to expect ppc.rpm packages rather than
ppc64.rpm packages (even when booting from a 64bit kernel). There does
not appear to be any method of overriding this in the kickstart file.
Is my observation correct? Should channel-ppc64 create a channel of
PPC64 architecture? Is there any way of converting my PPC channel to
PPC64 without having to recreate a new channel (it would take days to
upload the ~16000 packages to a new channel).
