Hi, I'm trying to install the ovirt-node iso image on a SATA disk and when it gets to the screen where it shows 25% completed the kernel hangs. I can't connect using a serial console to see what has happened. If I reboot using a usb linux disk I see that the SATA disk has been formated and the partitions that existed before disappeared, being there just one partition of type "ee"
Is there any error displayed when kernel hangs at 25%? And it can take some time to pass the 25% (up to ~2min or so).
No, I think it's a kernel hang because the lights on the keyboard halt and I can't change to tty2, etc.. I even changed to tty2 and waited to see if there were some errors but nothing. I've read that "tty8" was the logging console but no luck also. BTW, I tried with an IDE disk and the result was the same.
If I use a 8 GB usb pen-drive instead of the SATA disk, the installation comes to an end and I reboot but then I get some error about not getting /dev/mapper/by-name/Root and the boot fails to a dracut shell. Any ideas?
In the dracut shell, could you run blkid and post the results?
I noticed that the USB Disk was named RootBackup instead of Root... I then rebooted and chose uninstall and then installed oVirt Node from scratch and now it worked. I can't activate Networking because I have that "no hostname" error mentioned in another post. I think it's related to that...
