No need to patch Anaconda
There is no need to patch anaconda-10.91.14-1 In Fedora Core 5 Test 2.
A patch submitted to the anaconda devs has made it into anaconda-10.91.14-1 which allows Kadischi to be used without patching Anaconda by users, and without the --livecd switch, eliminating the partitioning screens.
This of course only applies to FC5 Test platform testers.
anaconda-10.91.14-1 ------------------- * Fri Feb 03 2006 JeremyKatz <katzj@redhat.com> - 10.91.14-1 - Skip more steps in root mode (JasperHartline)
kadischi-fc5tx.patch
This patch provides functionality by correcting the URL displayed in the usage for kadischi.py, enables mkzftree parallelism if available and allows Kadischi to run under >= FC5tx Anaconda. It also removes the --livecd switch from kadischi.py for now, until more things develop that is what is needed for test platform users.
Without this kadischi-fc5tx.patch , anaconda will fail like this:
*** running anaconda *** Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 514, in ? flags.livecd = 1 File "/usr/lib/anaconda/flags.py", line 30, in __setattr__ raise AttributeError, attr AttributeError: livecd *** Fatal error: anaconda returned non zero (256) exit code. Aborting execution. Cleaning up temporary files... Done
Hence, kadischi.py needs to be patched,
# patch -b /usr/local/share/kadischi/kadischi.py /home/KADISCHI/kadischi-fc5tx.patch
Broken Elements
In the next meeting JasperHartline will go over other patches: e.g. The mkinitrd patch, linking in the libsepol.so libselinux.so and libdl.so, plus switching /sbin/nash with losetup.
