Problems with CentOS 8 kickstart
by Hooton, Gerard 23 Jun '25

Hi All, I am having problems with a kickstart install of CentOS 8 When I try to do a completely automated install using PXE/UEFI it get to the point where it reads the kickstart config file. Then I see the following message "kickstart install Started cancel waiting for multipath siblings for nvme0n1" This is what I have in the kickstart file # Clear the Master Boot Record zerombr # Partition clearing information clearpart --all --initlabel autopart --nohome --type=lvm --fstype=xfs ================ When I install from a USB drive it works OK and I have the following in /dev/disk/by-id lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 13 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVL2512HCJQ-00BL7_S64KNE0R161810 -> ../../nvme0n1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 13 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-eui.002538b11102f46d -> ../../nvme0n1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 wwn-eui.002538b11102f46d-part3 -> ../../nvme0n1p3 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVL2512HCJQ-00BL7_S64KNE0R161810-part3 -> ../../nvme0n1p3 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-eui.002538b11102f46d-part3 -> ../../nvme0n1p3 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 lvm-pv-uuid-5Dg4mg-saHa-hJJ6-n5a8-MxBS-gdFi-5jPoNn -> ../../nvme0n1p3 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 wwn-eui.002538b11102f46d-part2 UNG_MZVL2512HCJQ-0-> ../../nvme0n1p2 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVL2512HCJQ-00BL7_S64KNE0R161810-part2 -> ../../nvme0n1p2 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-eui.002538b11102f46d-part2 -> ../../nvme0n1p2 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 400 Jul 5 10:28 . lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 wwn-eui.002538b11102f46d-part1 -> ../../nvme0n1p1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-SAMSUNG_MZVL2512HCJQ-00BL7_S64KNE0R161810-part1 -> ../../nvme0n1p1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 15 Jul 5 10:28 nvme-eui.002538b11102f46d-part1 -> ../../nvme0n1p1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-uuid-LVM-qQok4M7AOo1TxZZ42GwZcbuVNBs0hnkKtEdtLjwJQyIdxJcSvPv8TEAjwYGMv6yU -> ../../dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-uuid-LVM-qQok4M7AOo1TxZZ42GwZcbuVNBs0hnkKAooqrczySYJyiHvUAUji9oScPN2cVi7J -> ../../dm-1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-name-cs_uews027-swap -> ../../dm-1 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-name-cs_uews027-root -> ../../dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-uuid-LVM-qQok4M7AOo1TxZZ42GwZcbuVNBs0hnkK5HZXbR2ow5xKGuD7jVe4UPzZm2qRLLXI -> ../../dm-2 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 10 Jul 5 11:07 dm-name-cs_uews027-home -> ../../dm-2 It's looks like that I am not doing the disk drive stuff in the config file correctly. -- Gerard Hooton.

cryptsetup luks
by lejeczek 17 May '25

17 May '25

Hi guys. Is this a misbehavior of some sorts? I encrypt: -> $ systemd-cryptenroll --tpm2-device=auto --tpm2-pcrs=0+7 /dev/nvme0n1p3 but unless there is only one keyslot (my even have any ID) or perhaps if it was first - but have not tired it - then 'cryptset' does not open the device @boot. From what I understand 'cryptsetup' tires all keyslots - no matter TPM provider/device is absent - I was thinking of 'timeout' but cryptsetup does not report any such issues, simply boot stops, waiting for a passphrase. I other words: it seems I need to remove all keyslots, old ones, enrolled in the past for which TPMs do not exists any more, except for the one I know is valid, only then system boots with TPM, no passphrase prompt. any thoughts much appreciated. many thanks, L.

module from repos
by lejeczek 10 May '25

10 May '25

Hi guys. 'modules' are no longer, in 'dnf'? I get none. Is there some 'changelog' on v. 10 - where important changes are covered? I searched but failed to find any. thanks, L.

How is EPEL doing for ver. 10?
by lejeczek 02 May '25

02 May '25

Hi My second question is - how is EPEL doing somebody knows? I wonder is it still early ? or something else is up. I'm asking because it seems that quite a few & useful - to me at least - packages are absent. eg.: lsyncd, monit, probably more, but one whose absence rose my eyebrow is 'certbot' So I guess I wonder: should I go on a "discovery" process & then report to BZ, or perhaps some major changes to "repos" took place while I was absent. thanks, L.
