Hello,

I was performing a test install of CentOS Stream 9 using the latest[1] available dvd iso from the mirror[2].

I manually select "minimal install" from the selectable packages. The install seems to go smoothly. Upon reboot I am greeted with:

[FAILED] Failed to start Switch Root

Further examination of the switch-root service shows the following:

Failed to switch root: Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing.

Booting into rescue media shows that the os-release file(s) actually do exist:

ls -l /etc/os-release lwrxwrxwrx. 1 root root 21 Apr 6 08:27 /etc/os-release -> ../usr/lib/os- release

ls -l /usr/lib/os-release -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 391 Apr 6 08:27 /usr/lib/os-release

Is there anything I can do to help? What is the best way to address this issue -- open a bugzilla or something else?

I can confirm this, though I'm using diskimage-builder from OpenStack and getting the same error.  Imported images do not boot and leave the console at an emergency prompt.  First noticed July30th.
