Disabling Users modules fixes it :
[customizations.installer.kickstart]
contents = """
text
zerombr
clearpart --all --initlabel
"""
disable = [
"org.fedoraproject.Anaconda.Modules.Users"
]

I build bootc images. I use bootc-image-builder to generate iso Anaconda refuses to auto-install if neither a root password nor a user is set in the kickstart file. But the root password is set in the image. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Containerfile : FROM quay.io/fedora-ostree-desktops/silverblue:43 RUN echo "passwd" | passwd --stdin 2. Kickstart : [customizations.installer.kickstart] contents = """ text zerombr clearpart --all --initlabel """ 3. sudo podman build -t testosbuild build/ && sudo podman run --rm -it --privileged --pull=newer \ --security-opt label=type:unconfined_t \ -v ./output:/output \ -v /var/lib/containers/storage:/var/lib/containers/storage \ -v ./config.toml:/config.toml:ro \ quay.io/centos-bootc/bootc-image-builder:latest \ --type anaconda-iso \ --chown 1000:1000 \ --rootfs=btrfs \ localhost/testosbuild Actual Results: Anaconda will wait for a root password or create an user Expected Results: Anaconda auto installs the system Additional Information: Anaconda 43.44-3.fc43
