[Bug 303857] New: Installation on DM-RAID fails due to missing packages " kpartx" and "dmraid"
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=303857 Summary: Installation on DM-RAID fails due to missing packages "kpartx" and "dmraid" Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: aosthof@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development If one tries to install openSUSE 10.3 Beta 2 on a device mapper raid (aka fake raid aka bios raid), the installation fails while "Finishing Basic Installation". An error message pops up saying: An error occured during initrd creation. Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.3-7-default Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.22.3-7-default Root device: /dev/mapper/nvidia_eeifagch_part3 (mounted on / as ext3) cp: cannot stat `/etc/udev/rules.d/70-kpartx.rules': No such file or directory Script /lib/mkinitrd/setup/51-kpartx.sh failed! You may now have to update your boot loader configuration. A screenshot of this error message will be attached. Taking a closer look reveals that both necessary packages "kpartx" and "dmraid" are missing: inst-sys:~ # df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/nvidia_eeifagch_part3 10325780 3402620 6398640 35% /mnt /dev/mapper/nvidia_eeifagch_part1 101086 11447 84420 12% /mnt/boot inst-sys:~ # rpm -q --root=/mnt kpartx package kpartx is not installed inst-sys:~ # rpm -q --root=/mnt dmraid package dmraid is not installed Selecting those 2 missing packages in the initial package selection solves the problem. IMHO it should be a problem related to patterns. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(not sure, and Alex in on vacation for the next 3 weeks) I was able to reproduce with stable-x86, so the reason most probably is, nothing attracts those packages. The packages defininitely were available on the medium.

So the three above boot scripts will only be executed if there is currently demand for them that means if there is a DMRAID device, a MD device or a LVM Volume groupt present in the system. If these are not present, there will be a call "insserv -r" for the according boot script, if at least one of the corresponding devices is present there will be a call to "insserv" (without -r). This should fix the problem with slower startup while it allows the packages to be installed by default. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
