In previous CentOS releases, virt-what was included in the install image. This made it easy for me to spin a custom ISO with my package set and a kickstart that would add open-vm-tools or ovirt-guest-agent as appropriate (when installing the respective guest environments).
I updated my ISO to 7.2, and virt-what is nowhere to be found. I assume this is copied from RHEL; anybody know any explanation?
For now, I'm falling back to matching strings in /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name. Is there some better way to determine what (if any) virtual environment the installer is running under?
Which ISO .. virt-what is on the Everything ISO and in the os/ directory.. you can use that.
Again, I'm talking about the install image itself, not the package set. Previously, I could run virt-what from %pre in a kickstart because the executable was included in the installer runtime (LiveOS/squashfs.img), but now it is not.
