Description Dan Horák 2019-07-01 15:48:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
Seems that after switching to using network-manager module instead of network-legacy, dracut can't setup networking on s390x breaking the installation process. The main install.img file can't be downloaded.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
dracut-049-27.git20181204.fc31.s390x

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start an installation
2.
3.

Actual results:
Warning: anaconda: failed to fetch stage2 https://...

Expected results:
install.img downloaded


Additional info:
it's difficult to debug network setup related issue without the "ip" tool available under the emergency shell.
Comment 1 Dan Horák 2019-07-01 15:51:24 UTC 
Question for anaconda devels - why is anaconda unsuccessfully retrying to get stage2 (install.img) for 1+ hours (and still trying)?
Comment 2 Dan Horák 2019-07-01 15:56:28 UTC 
kernel command line used during the installation, I wonder if similar parameters would break dracut on other arches as well

Comment 3 Dan Horák 2019-07-01 19:58:49 UTC 
I suppose the real problem is with nm-initrd-generator. The address1 entry in the generated enc800.nmconnection file doesn't look right. It doesn't honor the netmask from the ip= parameter (21), but uses the default (8) for the IP class instead. Ping me for non-obfuscated data.

Thanks for the report.

The fixed build is now in Rawhide.

Thanks for the prompt fix. Now to wait for the next compose to verify everything works again.
Comment 6 Dan Horák 2019-07-04 10:14:38 UTC 
All looks good with Fedora-Rawhide-20190704.n.0
