[CentOS-devel] CentOS for ppc64le bare-metal install failed on S822L

[Yan Hui Tan]

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?

Best Regards,

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
