I don't believe what I just saw ...
So after a bit of live CD jiggery pokery, I was able to run through an F21 RC5 installation. I installed it in a separate logical volume, alongside my existing F20 installation. /boot is a shared ext4 partition on top of my IMSM RAID volume. I still use GRUB legacy, so I told anaconda not to install a bootloader. After the F21 installation completed, I was unable to boot back to F20. GRUB still worked, but the initramfs was unable to find the F20 root filesystem, which is an LV on top of a bcache device. After a bit of investigation, it appears that the F21 installer rebuilt all of the F20 initramfs files on the shared /boot (and omitted the bcache dracut module). Of all the anaconda weirdness I've experienced over the years, this has got to be the strangest thing I've seen. In fact, I have a hard time believing the evidence of my own eyes. Why would it do this? Am I crazy? Anyone else seen this? Expected behavior? -- ======== Ian Pilcher arequip...@gmail.com "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

The RAID device (md126) is composed of sdb and sdc. md126p5 is the bcache backing device. sda is an (un-RAIDed) SSD; sda2 is the bcache cache device. As I just posted to the Bugzilla ... I did some playing around with running "anaconda --askmethod" from a live CD, and the results were ... interesting. At first, I got the expected crash, so I edited /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/blivet/ devicelibs/mdraid.py and added some additional logging to both name_from_md_node and md_node_from_name. Just to ensure that the updated version was used, I also deleted the mdraid.pyc and mdraid.pyo. Once I did this, the crash went away

Prevent F18 anaconda from overwriting bootloader
As of "smoke 4" it looks like I am finally able to install Fedora 18 onto a new LV within an existing VG (a VG built from 2 separate software RAID devices no less)! I did this in a test VM, and I'm darn glad that I did, because it looks like it would have trashed the existing (grub "legacy") bootloader setup on my system. Indeed, the CentOS installation that I "pre-staged" into the test VM is nowhere to be found in the new Grub menu. I just ran through the installation workflow again, and I am never asked where I want the bootloader installed (or if I want it installed at all). How can I prevent anaconda from overwriting my existing bootloader?

Am I interpreting this correctly to mean that a beta can go out without support for software RAID and/or LVM, as long as they are not offered in the Anaconda interface? If so, uugh. Also if the intent isn't to support "every bizarre permutation", what combinations are required to work (if any)? My specific concern is LVM on top of software RAID. I've been running said configuration since at least RHL 8, and I'm getting pretty tired of having Anaconda break on it every 2 or 3 releases.

Another option is to simply not bother with RPM for this: 1) Grab the source from kernel.org (git clone) 2) Copy the most recent kernel config-* file from /boot to .config in your kernel source tree. 3.) Apply patches 4) Run 'make oldconfig' and hit enter until it completes. 5) make -j bzImage 6) make -j modules 7) sudo make modules_install 8) sudo make install When the time comes to clean up, simply remove the unwanted files and directories from /boot and /lib/modules. -- ======== Ian Pilcher arequip...@gmail.com "Sometimes there's nothing left to do but crash and burn, or die trying" -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Thanks! You probably want to be clear that /boot is RAID-1 only (unless grub2 has *really* come a long way).

It's certainly true that the release of KDE 4.0 was terribly mismanaged, and the buggy/incomplete state of the code caused huge pain for KDE users. But releasing a "product" which is buggy and incomplete and telling users that they'll just have to wait to get their old functionality back is not the same as deliberately removing functionality and discoverability with no intention of ever restoring it. As incredibly (and unnecessarily) painful as the KDE 3.5-to-4.x transition was, the current incarnation of KDE is actually very usable. I can think of only one KDE 3.5 feature that I used that isn't present in KDE 4.6 -- different wallpapers per virtual desktop -- and I think it may actually be possible to achieve that by using activities. By comparison, if one believes the statements that have been made by GNOME developers in various blogs, mailing lists, etc., most of the features that people miss from GNOME 2.x are never coming back.

systemd: how to list enabled services
I'm in the habit of running chkconfig --list | grep :on to list all of the services that are enabled on my system (usually right after an installation, so I can disable all of the stuff that I don't need). What is the systemd (systemctl equivalent)?

Alternatively, reset your system, boot into runlevel 1, start networking (systemctl start network.service), yum downgrade rsyslog, and reboot.

KVM modules not being loaded
I'm not sure when it started happening, but I just noticed that the KVM modules (kvm and kvm_amd in my case) are not being automatically loaded when I boot Fedora 15. I'm not sure what mechanism is supposed to autoload the modules, so I can't file a bug against the correct component. Anyone know where the magic is supposed to happen? -- ============ Ian Pilcher arequip...@gmail.com -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Count me among those experiencing serious problems with the r300 driver (since I upgraded from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14, in fact). Do you have any bugzilla numbers?

Annoying IMSettings notification
Every time I log in to KDE, I'm greeted with the following notification: No modules loaded IMSettings won't affects anything on your desktop. please make sure if you have proper...

SPICE crashing qemu-kvm 0.14.0
Is anyone able to run a SPICE guest with qemu-kvm 0.14.0? qemu-kvm-0.14.0-0.1.201102107aa8c46.fc15.x86_64 crashes hard (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=677169).
