Description Richard Ryniker 2010-02-20 21:38:48 UTC 
Created attachment 395292 [details]
/var/log/secure  shows failures in root login.

Description of problem:
After bug 566948 stymied graphical install, tried installation with 
basic video driver.  This generated complaints about missing dependencies for:
 initscripts
 openssh-server
 coreutils
 policycoreutils
 pam
 lvm2
 dracut
 udev
 ncurses-libs
 ncurses-base

Chose to continue installation.  179 packages installed.
After installation completed, and subsequent reboot, could not login
as root.  Rebooted to runlevel 1 successfully, and found in /var/syslog/messages:

Feb 20 13:57:18 localhost init: tty (/dev/tty1) main process ended, respawning
Feb 20 13:57:57 localhost init: tty (/dev/tty1) main process ended, respawning

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
13.26

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from alpha-RC1 DVD
2. Select "install with basic video driver"
3.
  
Actual results:
Dependency failure messages during installation; unable to login
as root.

Expected results:
Correct packages on install media.
Successful login as root.

Additional info:
The following files are available:
 anaconda.syslog
 anaconda.xlog
 anaconda.storage.log
 anaconda.program.log
 anaconda.log
but they say nothing about failed dependencies.

I encountered the same problem with anaconda 13.28 and it was 100% reproducible.

Comment 2 He Rui 2010-02-21 09:22:57 UTC 
Set it as F13 alpha blocker bug according to Alpha Release Requirements: 2. No file conflicts or unresolved package dependencies during a media-based (CD/DVD) install  and (for root login issue) maybe 12. In most cases, the installed system must boot to a functional (graphical) environment.
Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2010-02-21 16:33:31 UTC 
Please attach all the anaconda log files to this bug so we can see what's going on.  Thanks.

Comment 10 Chris Lumens 2010-02-22 14:35:31 UTC 
Looks like the underlying problem is that system-config-firewall-base is not included in the install media, therefore we can't install it and run lokkit to configure the machine for logging in:

13:47:01,285 DEBUG anaconda: no package matching system-config-firewall-base
...
13:54:26,197 ERROR anaconda: Error running /usr/sbin/lokkit: No such file or directory
Comment 11 Jesse Keating 2010-02-23 02:16:53 UTC 
this appears to be a problem with pungi during the compose.  Looking into it now.
Comment 12 Jesse Keating 2010-02-23 02:22:52 UTC 
This could have been a yum problem, or just a problem with the state of the repos at the time, but I cannot duplicate it at this point.
Comment 13 He Rui 2010-02-23 11:33:30 UTC 
Verified fixed in F13 alpha RC2.
