Hi Pravit,
my guess is that you need to specify the URL to the installation source (or at least to the location with stage2) in the boot entry:
options inst.repo=URL
or
options inst.stage2=URL

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:
