Ping? where are we with this?

*** Bug 1449391 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Implementation of the fix is described in the the commit message.

An scratch build for easy testing:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=19509426

Note: Due to an unrelated Anaconda bug you need to run Initial Setup in reconfig mode:

touch /.unconfigured
then reboot

Otherwise only a single spoke will be displayed on the Initial Setup TUI hub, triggering the Aanconda side bug.

I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3.
I created an SD card using arm-image-installer with Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-26-20170504.n.1-sda.raw.xz. 
After that I mounted the SD on my PC. Then downloaded the 4 files from github, and copied them in the related paths:

sudo cp common.py /run/media/alessio/__/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/initial_setup/common.py 
sudo cp initial-setup.service /run/media/alessio/__/usr/lib/systemd/system/initial-setup.service
sudo cp __init__.py /run/media/alessio/__/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/initial_setup/__init__.py
sudo cp tui.py /run/media/alessio/__/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/initial_setup/tui/tui.py

Booted the Rasperry with such SD card I can confirm that the initial-setup process starts and it works.

Thanks.

mkolman: what's the deal with the 'unrelated anaconda bug' you mention when only one spoke would be displayed in i-s? Is there a bug report for that?

As no one reported anything my theory is that it's something that has been introduced since the latest F26 Anaconda build. But I'm afraid it could also be that no one just hit it yet, as you need to:

- run the Initial Setup TUI
- there needs to be just a single spoke present (usually the user creation spoke)

This means people on ARM won't hit it as they have more than one spoke on the hub due to the reconfig mode. And most of regular installations also won't hit it as tehy are using the Initial Setup GUI, Gnome Initial Setup or nothing at all (if user is created during the installation).

In any case this is the PR that should fix it:
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/1060

I've just merged it, which means that Rawhide & F26 should be fine once a new build is done. I can also cherry pick it to a F26 build during freeze if it *does* happen on current F26 & gets a FE/blocker.

initial-setup-0.3.46-2.fc26 tui working on beaglebone black, password issues are now fixed.

Tested F26 Beta 1.3 (with initial-setup-0.3.45-1.fc26) on Raspberry Pi 3 (serial) and Banana Pi (serial and hdmi), works for me with the exception of the password issue.
