According to https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/htm... a lot of hardware is no longer supported. Specifically SAS1 drivers are my concern. Does the CentOS team plan to include those drivers in a centos-extras kernel? Likewise, would anaconda's environment have support for them or is it expected that people will have to generate their own kernel and install image?
Traditionally we've solved missing driver issues with the centosplus kernel, and we'll continue to do that with el8 as well. Additionally we're working a bit more closely with the elrepo folks who can provide driver update disks so that these drivers are available at install time.
DUD images in my opinion are a better solution than carrying added drivers in multiple anaconda/install images.
