Hello, I am deploying VMs via kickstart files, so the process can be completely non-interactive.
Right now I'm stuck with Fedora 33. The following command works completely fine on F32, F31 and so on, but not F33. Can you please help me fix it?
virt-install \ --connect qemu:///system \ --network bridge:virbr0 \ --initrd-inject /var/local/minimal.ks \ --name test_name_3 \ --disk /VMs/test_name_3.qcow2,size=10,format=qcow2 \ --memory 2048 \ --location https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/32/Server/x86_6... \ --hvm --vcpus=2 --check-cpu --accelerate \ --graphics none \ --extra-args 'ks=file:/minimal.ks console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200'
Just change the URL to point to F33 repo. It will fail, after the whole installation is complete and the VM should start one last time, with following error:
Failed to start Switch Root. Failed to switch root: Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing.
I checked that the file "/etc/os-release" is in place and populated.
I uploaded the used Kickstarter file, as well as some logs here: https://gitlab.com/Faramos/vm/-/snippets/2042979
I also tried to force installation with EXT4 partitions (instead of F33 default BTRFS), but it hasn't made any difference. Nothing else in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:ChangeAcceptedF33 seems suspicous to me.
I am using an F32 host.
