Description

To simplify this to a single sentence kernel-install should not assume /boot is a XBOOTLDR unless its fat/ESP. For systemd-boot of course.. if that wasn't clear. FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58 (sdubby-1.0-8.fc40) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 40. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58 FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58 has been pushed to the Fedora 40 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 40-final by Fedora user jlinton using the blocker tracking app because: Without this inst.sdboot is again broken in the default filesystem configuration anaconda uses. There is a workaround, which requires the user to delete the /boot partition but that isn't ideal since it was working before systemd/kernel-install changed the way it detects XBOOTLDR. I should have pushed to get this in under the freeze date but it missed by one day since it was sitting in -testing for a week. This change should be transparent to non systemd-boot users, so the chance of breaking grub/etc systems should be ~0%. +3 in https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1568 , marking accepted. FEDORA-2024-8c23e98d58 (sdubby-1.0-8.fc40) has been pushed to the Fedora 40 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. Is there still anything to do here or can we close this? Looks good, I just retested with the server dvd too. Thanks everyone. |
