[ 10.494035] dracut-initqueue[555]: cp: error reading './proc/144/task/144/mem': Input/output error Looks like either a kernel or a hardware failure, and since the hardware is fake assigning to kernel.

After changing the memory from 16384MB to 32000MB it works. Menanteau Guy, could you please try to change the memory and test again if it works for you? For the record, the same issue also affects bare-metal P8 installation. Seems similar to BZ#1215669 (bug for issue mentioned in comment #2). Ngo Than, not sure of what memory you are talking about. In "qemu guest create command" indicated in comment 1, you can see that the guest is done with -m 6G . I also tried with 8G memory without better result. Keep in mind it is a transient problem. I do agree with comment 2 of Dan and I suggest to wait a better compose with a product.img not empty to see if this problem is still alive.

I changed it to 3200MB and it works for me. Afterthat I tried to create new VM again with memory 32000MB and it failed this time. It seems this problem is randomly. I have investigated but still haven't found the cause. > I do agree with comment 2 of Dan and I suggest to wait a better compose with > a product.img not empty to see if this problem is still alive. i do agree too. From my testing it seems that with F23 Alpha RC2 this problem went away, but please recheck too before we will close this bug. Fixed in Alpha RC2 Problem not reproductible after several tries with Alpha_RC2. http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/compose/23_Alpha_RC2/23/Server/ppc64le/iso/Fedora-Server-DVD-ppc64le-23.iso i can comfirm that the bug is fixed in alpha rc2. http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/compose/23_Alpha_RC2/23/Server/ppc64/iso/Fedora-Server-DVD-ppc64-23.iso it's fixed in ppc64le-rc2 too. http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/compose/23_Alpha_RC2/23/Server/ppc64le/iso/Fedora-Server-DVD-ppc64le-23.iso |
