[Bug 1532062] [NEW] Drives mistakenly reported as removable

 

Public bug reported:

I have multiple servers which report their drives are removable, even
though the drives are the main drives in the device (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb,
etc). One of such machines (an IBM system x3650 M1) I have pulled a
report from lsblk and lshw below and included them. These are configured
using the RAID controller that came with the machine. I can provide any
other information needed. I am seeing the same on a HP proliant DL100
g2. In this case the removable tag is triggering a problem with curtin
since curtin currently refuses to install to drives reported as
removable by lsblk.

output of: lsblk -l
