RHBA-2014:1058 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated lorax packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 7.

Description

Lorax is a tool for creating the anaconda install images. It also includes
livemedia-creator which is used to create bootable livemedia, including live
isos and disk images. It can use libvirtd for the install, or Anaconda's image
install feature.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the xfsdump and xfsrestore commands were missing in Rescue Mode,

which is created on installation media by lorax. As a consequence, the user
could not restore XFS root file system when he needed to restore the complete
operation system. To fix this bug, the xfsdump and xfsrestore commands have been
added to Rescue Mode, and the user can now restore XFS if necessary.
(BZ#1129556)

Users of lorax are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.
