Hey everyone, I have a Fedora question but really an overall RH OS question: I am running Fedora 32 on x86_64. I used to be able to boot into the installer using the vmlinuz and initrd.img from the isolinux directory. IIRC I had to specify a boot entry like title loader linux /vmlinuz inst.vnc initrd /initrd.img grub_users $grub_users grub_arg --unrestricted grub_class kernel but that no longer seems to work and I see a hang during systemd. I do see that the bootlog has [ 26.758433] dracut-cmdline[1226]: Warning: anaconda requiring network for vnc so I know I'm on the right track. Does anyone know the magic incantation to get this to work? I have a remote system I'm trying to install. TIA for any help, P. P.S the hang occurs here: [ OK ] Started cancel waiting for multipath siblings of sda.
