Bug 1172390

I only get forbidden when trying to login to openqa, therefore I cannot update the test to reflect this bug. Please, someone with permissions do this for me.

Nobody can login at the moment: https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/66703

@Josef:
Sounds like either cfa_grub2 gem is missing or search path issue to me. Could you comment please?

for me it looks like system ruby version is not switched. Bootloader has dependency on cfa grub2

https://github.com/yast/yast-bootloader/blob/master/package/yast2-bootloader.spec#L36

Can you please inspect in openqa image what is output of 

ls -l /usr/lib*/ruby/gems/*/gems/cfa_grub2-*/

azouhr@opensuse.org: This is waiting for input from your side. Please check.

Unfortunately, I am not a suse employee, and thus unable to access any of the openqa machines. However, I try to get this solved, and thus used qemu-system-s390x to initiate an installation and look at the output:

0:install:~ # ls -l /usr/lib*/ruby/gems/*/gems/cfa_grub2-*/
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 26 May 12 00:00 lib

Since you probably wanted to see the path there:

0:install:~ # ls -ld /usr/lib*/ruby/gems/*/gems/cfa_grub2-*/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 26 May 12 00:00 /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/cfa_grub2-2.0.0/
---------------------------------
Just for reference, and maybe also to help getting this forward, I add a small script to this bug that allows to start qemu-system-s390 into the installation system on your local x86 workstation. Before starting, get the latest qemu-s390 package from the Virtualization development project.
osc repourls Virtualization

To prepare a raw sparse disk with 20G, use the command:
dd if=/dev/zero of=tumbleweed.raw bs=1G count=0 seek=20

Then get the latest untested ISO from 
https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/openSUSE:Factory:zSystems/000product:openSUSE-dvd5-dvd-s390x/images

The last thing before firing up is to fix the name of the iso image. By default, you get a port forward to your local machine to port 10022 for ssh. That is how I got into the installation system.

command to initiate s390x installation with qemu-system-s390

Unit tests for yast2-bootloader are failing in s390, see [1]. Possibly, the old yast2-bootloader package (with old Ruby 2.6 dependency) was used, and for this reason we end up with a mixture of ruby 2.6 and 2.7 versions. Thanks Ladislav for your research!

Note: We touched the XEN detection method only few days ago [2], but this bug was reported earlier, so that changes should not be the source of the problem.

[2] https://github.com/yast/yast-yast2/pull/1062

Unit tests have been improved to avoid the failure [1]. This should be fixed with yast2-bootloader 4.3.6. A new submit request has been already sent [2]. Please, wait for a refreshed iso and try it again.

Please, don't hesitate to reopen the bug if the problem persists. Thanks!
