Description Dan Horák 2022-07-20 11:57:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
Starting with the Fedora-Rawhide-20220616.n.1 compose the Server ISO is not bootable, thus I suspect something related changed in lorax. The netinst ISO boots OK. Everything was OK up to Fedora-Rawhide-20220615.n.0

https://openqa.stg.fedoraproject.org/tests/1921915#step/_boot_to_anaconda/3 is screen from a recent ISO. Like the grub binary would be completely missing from the ISO.

When trying to open Fedora-Server-dvd-ppc64le-Rawhide-20220719.n.0.iso in Midnight Commander it complains about "isoinfo: Unable to find Joliet SVD" (and doesn't show any directory structure), but Fedora-Everything-netinst-ppc64le-Rawhide-20220719.n.0.iso opens OK (showing the directory structure).

Could the grafting go wrong in recent lorax?

Comment 2 Brian Lane 2022-07-20 17:02:53 UTC 
The DVD is created by pungi adding content to the boot.iso, and in rawhide pungi is using xorriso to 'pass thru' the boot config so I'm guessing this doesn't work right for ppc64le.
Comment 3 Brian Lane 2022-07-21 00:27:49 UTC 
I tracked this down to xorriso needing to add the -U command (long filename support) when replaying the iso.

I've got a PR for this in mkksiso here: https://github.com/weldr/lorax/pull/1251

And commented in the pungi PR: https://pagure.io/pungi/pull-request/1613

Huh. I thought I already reported this somewhere, weeks ago, but can't seem to find it right now.
Comment 5 Adam Williamson 2022-08-03 00:02:32 UTC 
Oh, there it is.
