Re: Install of beta f18 on bl685c g1 blade freezes (SOLVED in TC2)

2012-12-18 Thread Gianluca Cecchi
Hello,
just to say that testing again with TC2 netinst.iso it now works if I select
Troubleshooting--> use basic video drivers
I get the grpahic inital setup and both keyboard and mouse work.
I don't know what changed in kernel/anaconda, but nothing changed on my side...

Now I have to check if and how I can set vlan id during install

To try it what should I run?
perhaps adding at kernel line
vnc vncpassword=qwerty ip= netmask=... gateway= dns=.
?
Also, my server is on vlanid 65
In other tests it seems it is not honored as none of the 2 interfaces
that are on this lan succeeded in getting the netwrk connection...
WHat is the switch for specifying vlanid in anacondo if present?

Re: Install of beta f18 on bl685c g1 blade freezes

2012-12-12 Thread Gianluca Cecchi
Another test I've done with final TC1 is to select
Troubleshooting --> Install with basic graphics mode

It arrives at language selection screen and blocks.
Could it be perhaps not a video issue but something related to my
input devices (aka mouse/keyboard)?
Neither Ctrl-Alt-Del sorts any effect in this state
This is a blade and  I'm using onboard administrator to install.
So I think iLO 2 (2.12 fw) emulates usb channels for keyboard and mouse

Any way to debug or give options related to input devices?
Or options related to iLO 2?

Thanks for your help

No.

Seriously, install using vnc and capture the X log after installing.

Did you leave nomodeset off the line?

The problem is that with and without "text" option, it freezes
The best I get is (with beta) to go to a dracut shell with a boot line
such as, after removing "quiet"

... text ks=http://x.y.z.w/f18ks.cfg ip=... netmask=... gateway=..
dns=... vlanid=65

questions:
is vlanid usable?
I presume it is a video problem but it could also be something related
to SAN disks I don't want it to see, but
blacklist=qla2xxx
seems it doesn't work...

Gonna need to see an X log from this to know why it's failing, I think.
If you can't extract it from the install environment, you might try
installing through text or vnc and seeing if X fails at runtime too.

Tried graphial and text but they both freeze...

See for text
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0BwoPbcrMv8mvQlpTYmVKUUlYTmM

tried nomodeset and leaving off quiet but no way...

Anything to further understand...?
No keyboard at all..


Had similar issue; xdriver=vesa acpi=off replacing quiet in linux line, got me 
to graphical install.
