Hello Tan,
We have an infrastructure which takes the iso and extract the kernel initrd infos in order to have petitboot happy. So it is basically a nfs mount of the everything iso.
Let me know if you need more info

HI Thierry, Thanks for your quickly reply. The ISO was downloaded from community, as the size is a little big, and we don't have an enough volume CD, so we made a bootdisk with an U flash disk, then used the U disk to install. I suspect maybe there is some issue when made the bootdisk. We will have a further check.
How did you install it? use network install?

Hello Tan,
I was able to do a bare metal install with timezone Europe using vnc. Then I tried a new install without vnc and using timezone asia
and I had no issue - so I suspect you had a trouble during copy of the iso - have you checked checksum ?
Let us know how it goes
Thx
Regards Thierry

Hello Tan
I know some tests have been done (I also successfully did a PowerKVM one ) but as I don't know which one, I am going to try myself and let you
know.
Thanks for the feedback.
