kickstart storage configuration hangs
by Leon Fauster 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

While playing with some CS9 kickstart installation attempts (manually/graphical works) I noticed following: What ever I provide as ks file "anaconda" outputs (text mode): <snip> Saving storage configuration ... Checking storage configuration ... . . .......................................................... <filling multiple lines> The ks file has nothing special, the storage related lines are: ignoredisk --only-use=nvme0n1 zerombr clearpart --all --initlabel --drives=nvme0n1 and then the part/volgroup/logvol lines. Does someone have the same issue? I guess anaconda is not ready? Because even the ks file from the manually installed system does not work ... -- Leon

Two labels, one mount point
by Kenneth Porter 01 Apr '22

01 Apr '22

I have a systemd mount unit that mounts an external drive by label. What happens if I plug in two USB external drives formatted with the same label? Does the last one discovered mount on top? I'm rotating backup drives and the backup software assumes the drive to be at a particular directory. Normally I'd stop the service, umount the drive (via systemd stop), unplug, plug the other one in, then start the service. (An automount unit will mount the replacement drive when the service touches the mount point.) But I'm wondering what happens if someone isn't careful and plugs in the 2nd drive before shutting down the service and removing the first one.

SELinux relabeling for a diffeerernt mount point
by Kenneth Porter 01 Apr '22

01 Apr '22

I'm preparing a disk mounted at /mnt/tmp to later be mounted at /var/lib/BackupPC. Is there some magic invocation to get the selinux labels for the structure I create to assume the final mount point, so that I don't have to relabel it when it's finally mounted at its target location? Or is there an argument to restorecon that will do the equivalent of chroot so that restorecon assumes the final location?
