[Users] node iso installer drops into dracut with Supermicro Virtual CD drive

Hi, I'm still having the same problems booting from a virtual CD problems with the latest node iso (ovirt-node-iso-2.6.0-20130125090303git3839439.566.fc18.iso). The node boots into the installer and then drops into a dracut shell: dracut-initqueue[488]: Warning: Could not boot. dracut-initqueue[488]: Warning: /dev/disk/by-label/ovirt-node-iso does not exist dracut-initqueue[488]: Warning: /dev/mapper/live-rw does not exist dracut:/# blkid /dev/sr0: UUID="2013-01-28-01-35-21-00" LABEL="ovirt-node-iso" TYPE="iso9660" PTTYPE="dos" I'll use foreman to deploy it for now but it's making casual testing a bit harder. -- Kind Regards, Jorick Astrego Netbulae B.V.

Hi, You should alter your grub command line. This is a bug on Fedora. Instead of /dev/mapper/live-rw, it should be /dev/sr0, for instance... Alex 2013/1/29 Jorick Astrego <jorick@netbulae.eu>:

Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hi,
Ok I can do that, but how do I do that on boot? I could modify the iso but I don't have the normal grub bootscreen so I can edit it. I tried replacing the CDLABEL parameter in the kernel arguments but this gets me nowhere. You state it's a bug on Fedora, but from a user perspective that doesn't matter.... it just doesn't work properly. And this hasn't worked for nearly a year now. An installer where you have to manually enter parameters on boot in a limited time window (a couple of seconds otherwise you have reboot again) doesn't make us admins happy. -- Kind regards, Jorick Astrego Netbulae B.V.

I'm also hoping that these issues get solved in the future.... 2013/1/29 Jorick Astrego <jorick@netbulae.eu>:

Hi, You can change boot options using the following steps: 1. Boot from CD 2. Press "Tab" when you see "Start Ovirt Node" 3. Change "root=live:CDLABEL=ovirt-node-iso" to "root=live:/dev/sr0" Regards, René

I've seen it on bugzilla when trying to solve this issue but didn't write down. Today I found this one: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=824617 - might be it and there is a post with the solution. Alex

Hey, thanks - maybe we should see if adding the pollcdrom darcut module [1] to oVirt Node's default dracut config solves this problem for virtual cdroms like in your case.
