Description of problem:

When installing Fedora 27 Beta 1.2 x86_64 as an guest (over the same LVM in which Fedora 27 Branched 20170901.n.1 was installed) I get:

Comment 2 Jiri Konecny 2017-09-26 08:44:43 UTC
Hello,

In most cases this will happen when you mix initrd and vmlinuz versions, or you have broken one of these.

Could you please try this with a different image / boot.iso ?

Thank you!

Comment 3 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 2017-09-29 15:41:20 UTC
I tried a brand new ISO:

Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-26-1.5.iso

And still seeing it.

Comment 4 Jiri Konecny 2017-10-02 08:03:13 UTC
This should work.

Could you please give us logs from /tmp/*.log and content of the /proc/filesystems file?

Also could you please try the "modprobe xfs" command and write here output of this command and its return code?

Thank you for your cooperation.

Comment 5 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 2017-10-07 12:28:17 UTC
I am going to close this as CLOSED as I can't reproduce this
anymore.

I think the issue was an operator error - mainly that I somehow managed to over-write the ISO with a symbolic link to an much much older version of the ISO (like pre-Alpha). And naturally this was happening _after_ I downloaded the ISO. <sigh>
