Description Antonio Murdaca 2023-03-13 08:40:08 UTC

Description of problem:

https://issues.redhat.com/browse/THEEDGE-3181

Burning an RHEL 9.x iso generated as edge-simplified-installer does not provide a UEFI bootable disk. Only boots to shell

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

8.x, 8.9

How reproducible:

always on hardware with some hiccup in UEFI firmware

Steps to Reproduce:
Minimized, easy-to-follow steps that will trigger the bug. Include any special setup steps or specific tools you used

setup nginx image repo in podman 
create a blueprint for producing a minimal edge image
cat <<EOF > blueprint-fdo.toml name = "blueprint-fdo" description = "Blueprint for FDO" version = "0.0.1" packages = [] modules = [] groups = [] distro = "" [customizations] installation_device = "/dev/sda" [customizations.fdo] manufacturing_server_url = "${FDO_MANUFACTURING_URL}" diun_pub_key_insecure = "true" EOF
build image
sudo composer-cli compose start-ostree blueprint-fdo edge-simplified-installer --ref rhel/9/x86_64/edge --url http://192.168.122.86:8090/repo/ 
Export image using: sudo composer-cli compose image xxxxxxx
Burn image to flash using various installer softwares or the recommended dd command. Same results
Set device to boot from USB and boot with flash inserted. 

Actual results:

Device boots to UEFI Shell 2.2.

Expected results:

Rhel installer should run and onboarding proceed

Working and tested patch https://github.com/osbuild/osbuild-composer/pull/3327

Comment 5 Hendrik van Niekerk 2023-03-13 09:38:48 UTC

Tested scenario using OnLogic HX500, which was one of the 2 devices confirmed to display the behaviour in question.
Using RHEL 9.1 build image and output a simplified-edge-installer, using pr 3327 as base, the issue was confirmed to be resolved and the HX500 system booted successfully. Verified that other devices, a NUC11k also still boots from the same image.

Comment 12 Mario Cattamo 2023-08-17 09:21:31 UTC

In order to verify this bug, tests on Onlogic bare-metal hardware HX401 and K410 have been performed.
Following lines summarize test results:
- RHEL-9.3 iso generated as edge-simplified-installer provides UEFI bootable disk for  K410.
- RHEL-9.3/CS9 iso generated as edge-simplified-installer provide UEFI bootable disks for HX401, but an issue has been found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2232406
