September 2009 - test - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by Joachim Backes

I installed F12 alpha from the DVD and had the feeling that the network is used during installation. So the installation was awful slow. For confirming this, I tried to install again after having de-activated the LAN chip in the BIOS, and, indeeded, the installation was cancelled (after the install partition had been formatted). Is there any option for installing F12 without accessing the LAN (I have DSL with 1 Megabit/sec)? All comments are welcome. -- Joachim Backes <joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de> http://www.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~backes

F12-Alpha-Live does not work

by Antonio Olivares

Dear folks, I downloaded F12-Alpha-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso to test on an EMachines ET1161-05 machine and it fails to work. I get the login screen, I click enter to get into KDE and I get message: BoX appears with message: Could not start ksmserver. Check your installation. Okay I have to select Okay and it cycles me back to login screen :(, I wanted to test live install, but not possible at this time :( I see line the following lines too : grep : ]: no such file or directory sbin/real-init: line 487: [: missing ']' transferring control to /sbin/init I wanted to install Rawhide on this machine and keep up with the testing, but I guess I should try another option? Regards, Antonio

If you have suggestions, you are welcome to update the test cases in the wiki directly, and respond here with the changes. Alternatively, feel free to call out the cases which could stand to have additional details. We can work updates from there.

Cannot install gcc in F12

by Joachim Backes

After having installed F12 (without devel packages), I tried to install gcc, but getting some repo issues: Error Downloading Packages: ppl-0.10.2-5.fc12.i686: failure: Packages/ppl-0.10.2-5.fc12.i686.rpm from InstallMedia: (256, 'No more mirrors to try.') binutils-2.19.51.0.14-31.fc12.i686: failure: Packages/binutils-2.19.51.0.14-31.fc12.i686.rpm from InstallMedia: (256, 'No more mirrors to try.') binutils-2.19.51.0.14-31.fc12.i686: failure: Packages/binutils-2.19.51.0.14-31.fc12.i686.rpm from InstallMedia: (256, 'No more mirrors to try.')

SoaS Test Day Team: Please sign up!

by Sebastian Dziallas

As announced before, the SoaS QA test day [1] is coming up quickly and will already take place tomorrow. We're still looking for people willing to join the team, which will support the testers in #fedora-test-day. If you'd like to jump on the train, please enter your availability here [2] so that we can schedule from when to when the test day will run (so that we don't run out of developers while testers are still around). --Sebastian [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2009-09-03_SoaS [2] http://whenisgood.net/soas-test-day

How to know if a bug has been reported before?

by He Rui

Greeting guys, Hi, when a bug is found, is there any way to check out if this bug has been reported or not? I did it just by searching the key words in bugzilla. But I think there may be other ways better than that. do you have any idea to share with me? Thanks, Rui He -- Contacts FAS name: Rhe IRC nick: Hurry(rhe)#fedora-qa Email: rhe(a)redhat.com

F12-alpha: superblock always in future

by sean darcy

I've just installed F12 alpha. My system clock is set to local time. F12 must think it's set to UTC. But when I try to boot, I end up in fsck land, with a last mount time in future error. If I then run fsck and reboot, I get the _same_ error, but now everything is 4 hours earlier! How can I get it to boot? sean

Fedora Test Day Summary - Dracut

by James Laska

Greetings, As you may recall, last Thursday was the Dracut Test Day [1]. The event was well attended. Thanks to all participants for lending their time, feedback and bug reports. Also, kudos to Alex Todorov and Jan Stodola who helped write and execute the root=nbd [2] and root=nfs [3] dracut test cases. And ... extra thanks to Harald Hoyer who stayed up well into the evening/morning to provide dracut debugging guidance. As always, the full test results matrix can be seen on the wiki, but I've tried to highlight the test configurations, bug reports and test documentation created from the event below. The following root device configurations were requested for testing. * root=/dev/sda1 - PASS * root=LABEL= - PASS * root=UUID= - PASS * root=nfs - PASS * root=nbd - PASS * root=iscsi - PASS * root=lvm+encryption - WARN (see 520109) * root=lvm+raid+encryption - WARN (see 520109) * root=/dev/md0 - FAIL (see 513267, 518793) * root=live_image - FAIL (see 520207) * root=udev-path - UNTESTED * root on cciss - FAIL (see 520125) The following bugs were filed on by participants of the dracut test day. * 519720 NEW - /dev/loopX File exists errors when using dracut * 519733 NEW - LUKS password prompt clobbered by loading module output * 520109 NEW - LVM + RAID + LUKS fails to boot using dracut every other time * 520125 NEW - Dracut fails to boot on cciss storage hardware * 520207 NEW - Filesystem label does not match kernel command line parameter * 519681 ASSIGNED - system hang at set up after reboot by using dracut ramdisk * 513267 ASSIGNED - dracut leaves unbootable system with lvm-on-RAID * 518793 ASSIGNED - Newly installed kernels have initrd-generic that doesn't work with raid * 519537 CLOSED CURRENTRELEASE - Fails to find root on laptop with luks pv The following wiki pages were drafted by test day participants on, or leading up to, the dracut test day. * Dracut Debug guide drafted (thanks Viking_ice!) - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Dracut_problems * 7 Dracut test cases drafted - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Dracut_Test_Cases * 1 Anacaonda test case drafted - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_anaconda_encrypted_lvm_on_raid [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2009-08-27_Dracut [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Dracut_root%3Dnfs [3] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Dracut_root%3Dnbd
