action #26978
closedautoyast/gnome installation stuck on grub
0%
Description
Observation¶
openQA test in scenario opensuse-Tumbleweed-DVD-x86_64-autoyast_reinstall_gnome@64bit fails in
installation
Reproducible¶
Fails since (at least) Build 20171022 (current job)
Expected result¶
Last good: 20171021 (or more recent)
Further details¶
Always latest result in this scenario: latest
Background¶
This test was long failing on https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1053863, which is now addressed
Snapshot 1021 passed it, and since 1022 it is failing again (but definitively with a new issue)
From what I understood, we disable the grub timeout now - but the autoyast setup test is not aware that it might have to confirm grub and expects grub to move on and reach a desktop without manual interaction
NOTE: this is not true for all autoyast setups, but only for the one created as a clone from a running system. The autoyast profiles published in openQA directly do not cause grub to stop

Needle added in the code to the loop that handle the set of potential matches. "ret" key sent when matching the grub screen to be able to continue to the next screen, the Desktop.

that did not seem to work yet. E.g. see https://openqa.opensuse.org/tests/513659#step/installation/14 . The test finds "bios-boot" and therefore aborts the loop. Now the new tag you added is not checked anymore. Can you take a look again please?

It is looping in second stage of this test. In my local machine hitting 'ret' in first stage solved the problem, but prod environment seems to have different speed and in the test code both loops have similar exit-condition. I can also add the condition in second stage to avoid this problem.

bootloader is not included as exit condition of any of both stages in the test, as we want to end the test with gnome desktop.
Problem with hitting 'ret' only on first stage:
- Local machine: only works on local because is going faster and does not match bios needle and instead it matches the bootloader needle, in turn hitting 'ret' and going to stage 2 and finds the desktop successfully.
- Prod: on production matches bios first and exists first stage without possibility to hit 'ret' in second stage. PR: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/3809 Regarding my local test: http://10.100.51.227/tests/263# autoyast_reboot test seems to be broken too.
