Mh, okay.
Could you try booting without the rhgb and quiet kernel
arguments. I
hope that some errors will be displayed on the screen so we
get an idea
about the problem.

Glad it worked the second time. There should be 4 partitions on the
disk.
Partition 1 is for UEFI or bios_boot depending on your machine type.
Partition 2 and Partition 3 are Root and RootBackup. So seeing a
RootBackup is correct. Not seeing a Root is incorrect. If you rebooted
the host in the middle of the install, or if the install hung for some
reason, I can see that situation happening and see it working after
uninstall/install.

You can't activate networking at all? That is news to me. The node
should work perfectly fine with or without a FQDN.
Yes, I've also seen the hostname error. And I've also seen
some problems
with the rootfs lately.
Have you seen these issues with the 2.5.2 build? Or only master branch
builds?
Could you provide a screenshot/dump of the console with that
error?

Ok! I'll send them as soon as possible.
