Hey all. Thanks for the great feedback so far. As Mark mentioned above, please start new discussions for specific issues with the beta. This will help us more easily keep track and respond to you.

I like the new GNOME Helper, easy to read. Getting Started has great Video Demo.

GNOME Boxes is cool, a new virtualization tool.

Installed on a Panasonic CF-C2 but wireless isn't working.
The rest of the system seems to be working just fine :)

Hi,

I see its mentioned before but I am also unable to boot up RHEL 7 Beta on RHEVH (RHEV Hypervisor 6.4-20130528.0.el6_4)

right before crashing I get the following error:
[ 3.700445] ioremap error for 0x3ffff000-0x40000000, requested 0x10 got 0x0

I'm using Satellite 6 to deploy (tftp + dhcp) through the oVirt API. This however should not matter.
Boot parameters:

default linux
label linux
kernel boot/RedHat-7.0-x86_64-vmlinuz
append initrd=boot/RedHat-7.0-x86_64-initrd.img ks=http://{server}/foreman/unattended/provision?token=859a2199-fee7-4328-9412-f3f7276f10ab ksdevice=bootif debug

As the "comment" button on my previous post gives me lots of garbage I will add a new comment:

My eralier posted problem regarding the VM to crash near an IOREMAP messages is nog solved.
For this I had to do the following:

TFTPserver:
add following boor paramaters: "nomodeset console=ttyS0"

On the hypervisor I had to edit the domain "virsh edit {domain}" and add:





after that I could use "virsh start {domain} --console"

After that I ofcourse found out the the RHEL6 kickstart template had to be adjusted for RHEL7 purpose. This was a minor issue and now RHEL7 is running on KVM with Satellite 6.

Cheers

I see my XML part has gone:

&ltserial type='pty'&gt
&lttarget port='0'/&gt
&lt/serial&gt
&ltconsole type='pty'&gt
&lttarget type='serial' port='0'/&gt
&lt/console&gt

Having big issues changing video driver to proper Nvidia.
Can't find any information and using guidelines for fedora 19/20 with creating a new initramfs fails.
modprobe: FATAL: Module nvidia not found.

It should be easy to switch to proper Nvidia drivers or preferable to have them integrated from start. Nouveau drivers are horrible :-)
