[Adam Williamson]

As per the Fedora 22 schedule [1], Fedora 22 Beta Test Compose 6 
(TC6) is now available for testing.

Content information, including changes, can be found at
https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6132#comment:10 . Please see the
 following pages for download links and testing instructions. Normally 
dl.fedoraproject.org should provide the fastest download, but download-
ib01.fedoraproject.org is available as a mirror (with an approximately 
1 hour lag) in case of trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with  
"download-ib01" in the download URL.

All Beta priority test cases for each of these test pages [2] must  
pass in order to meet the Beta Release Criteria [3]. For the Fedora  
22 cycle we are also trying to run the Final tests at this time, to 
try and identify later release blocker bugs as early as possible.

Help is available on #fedora-qa on irc.freenode.net [4], or on the  
test list [5].

I'm trying a Server kickstart install on a VM with updates-testing enabled.
It hangs near/at the end of package installing.  top reports a crazy high load
average (106) and machine basically locks up.  systemd appears to be in D
state.  Last journalctl message is:

unknown: <audit-1327> proctitle="load_policy"

Does it happen without u-t? What's the kickstart? Thanks!

It happens without u-t.  More debugging seems to show a hang trying to access
the systemd process image:

http://sw.cora.nwra.com/tmp/Screenshot_vmf22_hang.png

But unclear if that is cause, or just symptom.

Next attempt to get more info resulted in a successful install, so yay, some
kind of race.  It appears to be hanging in the post rpm transaction scriptlet
stuff and probably in the glibc.i686 %post scriptlet, which is
/usr/sbin/glibc_post_upgrade.i686 - and yay, a binary.

Seems to be here:

  if (check_elf ("/proc/1/exe"))
    verbose_exec (116, "/sbin/telinit", "/sbin/telinit",
"u");

in check_elf()

But again, all IO seems to be stuck at this point, so could be symptom, not a
trigger.

Install is a x86_64 system, but I install some 32bit libraries as well.
