Hi, Rich
What do you mean by "find that many packagesare missing?" xCAT packages?
Fedora 26 is supported, but there are some modification needed for the basic osimage, mine Fedora 26 ppc64 osiamge definition looks like this:
# lsdef -t osimage fedora26-ppc64-install-compute
Object name: fedora26-ppc64-install-compute
     imagetype=linux
     osarch=ppc64
     osdistroname=fedora26-ppc64
     osname=Linux
     osvers=fedora26
     otherpkgdir=/install/post/otherpkgs/fedora26/ppc64
     pkgdir=/install/fedora26/ppc64
     pkglist=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/fedora/compute.fedora21.pkglist
     profile=compute
     provmethod=install
     template=/opt/xcat/share/xcat/install/fedora/compute.fedora21.tmpl
Pls fell free to let me know if there is any issue.

Thanks Er
        The xCAT fedora packages are ok it's just that they now
seem to only put a limited number of Fedora Linux packages on the
download iso - e.g. the Fedora iso is 2 GB while those for RHELS are 6 GB.
I was wondering how others might have gotten around that doing automated builds.

Thanks again,

Rich


Thx!

    I haven't used Fedora with xcat for a while and am now interested in using 
it
    again.  I don't see it on the supported OS list though - are others still 
using
    this?  I loaded the latest Fedora 26 Server iso but find that many packages
    are missing?  Any additional assistance would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Rich
