[Bug 496316] New: NFS Installation broken when NFS drive is NFS V4
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496316 Summary: NFS Installation broken when NFS drive is NFS V4 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: alpha096@virginbroadband.com.au QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=286672) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=286672) Yast2 Logs for Installation User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.8) Gecko/2009032600 SUSE/3.0.8-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.8 During the Network Configuration phase of a non automated NFS 4 Installation, the Network connection will fail with the response that a NFS V4 session is already present. If the user continues to ignore the error in connecting to the internet and proceeds none the less connection to the Internet is granted, however the configuration of a update server will be missed/the on-line update will be skipped or erred out. The user needs to skip past this phase and complete the installation before re-booting a performing an on-line update and configuration Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start an NFS Installation via an NFS Server V4 2.Continue until network connection test which will fail. 3. Actual Results: No online update and update server configuration is skipped. The *NON* automated version will fall over completely broken as a result. Expected Results: 1. An automated Installation should revert to a non automated session at the point in which it falls over. 2. The presents of an NFS V4 is not an error in the connection test of the Network configuration phase With the huge potential of errors in an automated Installation, we need to revert to a manual config at the point the current automated install falls over. I cannot understand the premise that we currently allow an automated install to completely ABEND if it finds *****ANY***** environment condition that is outside a very very very narrow scope of environmental conditions. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

ifstatus exit code 12 means that DHCP client is running on the interface, but did not receive IP address(es) so far. Probably because the interface is set to dhcp4+6 mode (the default) and there is no DHCP server on the network that could provide IPv6 address the iface is waiting for.
Anyway, this is a duplicate of bug #460093, which also contains description of workaround. It is probably not accessible to general public, so I'm pasting it here: "Workaround is not to choose dhclient6 for installation, or set the interface to DHCPv4 only mode by editing the interface parameters in the proposal"
The broken ifstatus code reported in bug #460093 is fixed in sysconfig and released also for opensuse-11.1 (sysconfig-0.71.11-7.4.1). Please add the update repository: http://download.opensuse.org/update/11.1/ as additional source at the beginning of the installation - this should fix (avoid) this and another problems. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 460093 *** http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=460093 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
