Hey all, As a follow up to Chris' thread on hybrid BIOS/UEFI images[1], it was pointed out that in order to build images that actually boot, I need to make sure that the protective MBR boot flag isn't set. To implement this for Fedora Cloud images, I'm using parted in %post[2]. However, that has a major problem: I don't necessarily know what the block device name is going to be. I'm making an educated guess, but for third parties attempting to rebuild our images, that guess may be wrong.
What I'd like to see is the clearpart command getting a --no-gpt-pmbr-boot-flag or similar that would allow me to do this without having to write a magic snippet that includes a guess on how this works. I imagine this would also be useful for RHEL/CentOS 9, since it would simplify making hybrid boot images. What do y'all think? Thanks in advance and best regards, Neal [1]: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2021-May/msg00000.html [2]: https://pagure.io/fedora-kickstarts/pull-request/820#_3__29 -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
