Hey Jorick,

thanks for the informations from this and your last e-mail.
I think we need some deeper debugging, could you please do the following
to get more debugging informations:
1. Boot the ISO as usual
2. When the installer TUI comes up, press F" and drop to a shell
3. Set a password for root
4. Now run: ovirt-node-installer --debug
   This will run the installer in debug mode (writing tons of infos
to /var/log/ovirt-node.debug.log).
5. Continue the installation as usual until you reach a problem, then:

6. Switch to a second console and login (the setup tui should come up)
7. Drop to shell by pressing F2
8. Please send the files
* /var/log/ovirt-node.debug.log
* /var/log/ovirt.log
* /tmp/ovirt.log (if available)

That would really help us to find out what the problem is.

I think we should also open a bug for this.

Thanks and greetings
fabian
