Thanks to the python 3 unicode surprises I'm guessing blivet needs to start opening a bunch of things in binary mode.
David, is there any way for me to work around this so I can proceed to test F23 on this platform? thanks.
Who is the manufacturer of the system and what does the output of this look like: hexdump -C /sys/class/dmi/id/chassis_vendor Since this is a value provided by the manufacturer there is no work around other than fixing it or using an updates.img
Also, try this updates.img, add this to the kernel cmdline when booting: inst.updates=https://bcl.fedorapeople.org/updates/1256072.img
It's an Intel NUC. Model NUC5i3MYBE Chassis vendor shows: 00000000 ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff |................| * 00000020 ff 0a |..| 00000022 I'll try the update and report back.
updates image worked, installation just completed successfully.
