Description Jim Meyering 2010-03-15 07:18:57 UTC 
Description of problem: preupgrade F12->F13 text-mode fails: no "disks to clear"


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
preupgrade-1.1.4-1.fc12.noarch

How reproducible: at least one time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run preupgrade-cli "Fedora 13 (Branch)"
2. it completes normally and tells you to reboot.  do that
3. graphical boot fails (don't know why yet), and text mode does, too,
with this diagnostic: "Error parsing kickstart config.  The kickstart configuration file is missing required information that anaconda cannot prompt for.  Please add ..."  The missing info was:
Disks to clear
  
Actual results: as above

Expected results: text mode gives me a chance

Comment 2 Maximiliano Bertacchini 2010-03-15 15:50:53 UTC 
Same bug here on an x86_64 notebook, although from running preupgrade GUI.
On the other hand, preupgrade from fc12->fc13 worked flawlessly on an i686.

This actually just a different manifestation of the bug I'm duping this one to.  It's fixed in anaconda-13.33-1.
