Description of problem: When installing Fedora-Rawhide (future Fedora 34) in Beaker, the following warnings are printed by the installer: [ 9.574010] dracut-cmdline[299]: Warning: 'ks=<URL>' [ 9.584962] dracut-cmdline[299]: Warning: ks has been deprecated and will be removed. Please use inst.ks instead. [ 9.596929] dracut-cmdline[299]: Warning: 'ksdevice=00:00:1A:1B:0B:8C' [ 9.604937] dracut-cmdline[299]: Warning: ksdevice has been deprecated and will be removed. Please use inst.ks.device instead. [ 9.637034] dracut-cmdline[299]: Warning: 'ksdevice=<MAC>' is deprecated. Supplied BOOTIF takes precedence. ... Boot argument 'leavebootorder' is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Please use 'inst.leavebootorder' instead. Also a warning is present in anaconda.log: anaconda.log:08:46:50,377 WRN misc: /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pykickstart/base.py:216: KickstartDeprecationWarning: Ignoring deprecated command on line 29: The install command has been deprecated and no longer has any effect. It may be removed from future releases, which will result in a fatal error from kickstart. Please modify your kickstart file to remove this command. The "install" kickstart command has been deprecated since Fedora 29 [1] and will be removed in Fedora 34, see [2],[3], which will cause aborted installations due to an unknown kickstart command. * Please, use the proper kernel command line arguments with the "inst" prefix instead of the deprecated arguments. * Do not include the "install" kickstart command for at least Rawhide, Fedora 34 and RHEL-9 and later families to avoid aborted installations in the future.

Martin, just the kickstart part of this bug was fixed, but not the part for the deprecated kernel boot arguments. I've created a new bug 1907566 for the boot arguments.
Oh you right. Thank you for the ticket. Can you please open it in GH? I guess I will do the work anyway. I believe that the Beaker team is using JIRA now for their work and BZ is obsolete.

Using deprecated kickstart commands and command line arguments can lead to various issues and inefficiencies. Firstly, deprecated commands are no longer supported or maintained by the developers, which means they may contain bugs or security vulnerabilities that can pose risks to the system. Relying on such commands can result in instability, unexpected behavior, or even system crashes. https://rankdle.pro
