Description Milan Kerslager 2010-02-24 08:45:16 UTC 
I tryed to install Fedora 13-Alpha.RC2 (builded yesterday) from ISO image mounted on my FTP server, booted off PXE.

I'got the error about missing information in kickstart file (Bootloader configuration) even I'm able to install from this KS file older versions of Fedora and teher is "bootloader --location=mbr --append="rhgb quiet"" line in KS file.

My KS file: http://ftp.pslib.cz/pub/local/ks/pslib.php?rel=fb&arch=i386

The error message is the same (see previous screenshot). It seems like Anaconda did not mounted your image. Maybe it is corrupted or Anaconda did not uncompress it before trying to mount it.
Comment 7 Milan Kerslager 2010-03-11 12:27:44 UTC 
Sorry, I see two files /tmp/updates/kickstart.{py,pyc}, so it seems like your patch worked but did not fixed the problem.
Comment 8 Milan Kerslager 2010-03-17 08:08:36 UTC 
13-Beta.TC0 has the problem still. No traces about whats wrong on other consoles.
Comment 9 Milan Kerslager 2010-03-17 19:33:19 UTC 
I had misconfigured kickstart for 13-Beta.TC0 and when fixed, the problem is gone. The bug could be closed.
