Hi, Because Anaconda doesn't support my usual partitioning scheme (root on Btrfs in LVM in LUKS in LVM in GPT, /boot on Btrfs, etc.), I created the entire layout manually and tried to install Fedora using dnf. The same layout works perfectly fine in ArchLinux. I basically followed this howto, with adjustments for s/yum/dnf/ and for EFI/GPT: http://dustymabe.com/2014/05/29/manual-linux-installs-with-funky-storage-configurations/ The initial filesystem installation (dnf install -y --releasever=23 --installroot=/mnt/sysimage filesystem) already got a few glitches of this form: Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package filesystem This^^^ happened to roughly half of the installed packages. I tried to proceed with the rest (i.e., to install @core @standard kernel grub2 grub2-efi sihm grub2-tools), but it failed with scriptlet errors that prevented a few key packages from getting installed at all: error: %prein(selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-157.fc23.noarch) scriptlet failed, exit status 126 Error in PREIN scriptlet in rpm package selinux-policy-targeted Packages with those errors are reported as failed after the verify step. What I tried next: * setenforce 0 * upgrading the installation environment and/or the sysimage with dnf and rpm from rawhide * --releasever=22 instead of 23 * ...and checking for a few other common points with this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1270663 * a plain sysimage directory with no predefined Btrfs subvolumes in it * unmounting, remounting, checking that everything has seclabel on, no weirdness in dmesg, etc. Well, nothing of the above helped; the error is still the same. How can I diagnose this? Where can I dig out the exact reason why the scriptlets are failing? Provided that Anaconda actually does some steps that I'm missing and can carry out the installation correctly, is there a way to *force* it to just accept whatever is mounted into /mnt/sysimage at the moment, without trying to make sense of it? I'm pretty sure dracut can handle my partition layout just fine, so the entire issue here is about getting the basic installation done somehow. Theoretically I could create a simple-and-stupid layout that Anaconda can handle, proceed with the installation and reshuffle the partitions afterwards, but that's sooo cumbersome that I thought I'd first ask whether someone knows a workaround to the scriptlet problems.
