Description Roman Plevka 2020-07-15 11:14:13 UTC

Description of problem:
it looks like the bootdisk plugin is unable to use mkfs.msdos due to enforcing selinux.

On creating a new host, it just throws:
Failed to format the ESP image via mkfs.msdos

putting selinux to permissive mode unblocks it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.8.0 snap 8

Please always attach denials with SELinux failures. This one was easy to find tho :-)

Comment 2 Bryan Kearney 2020-07-20 12:04:30 UTC

Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite since the upstream issue https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/30422 has been resolved.

Sorry and thanks for the fix.
I also noticed the dosfstools package is not pre-installed - i had to install it manually.
Is this a packaging bug with foreman-bootdisk or is it by design?

Thanks!

We have added dependency upstream, we need to pull it into downstream packaging.

VERIFIED
on sat6.8.0-14

the iso can now be successfully downloaded without any issues (tested host image, full host image and subnet image)
