RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

.RHEL for Edge installer ISO image can now boot on BIOS VM Previously, when building an RHEL for Edge installer image and booting it with ISO on a BIOS VM to install the Edge system, the image could not boot because there was no BIOS configuration support available. As a consequence, the Installation would hang when installed on the BIOS VM. This update adds support to BIOS, and as a result, boot and install Edge system without error.

Description Xiaofeng Wang 2022-07-26 04:38:31 UTC 
Description of problem:
Build edge-installer image and boot with this ISO on BIOS VM to install Edge system. Can't boot with error:

Booting from DVD/CD ...
Boot Failed: Could not read from CDROM (code 0009)

This ISO image can boot on UEFI VM.

After discuss with @bcl, I summary some consolutions:
1. $ sudo xorriso -indev 81dad475-5d3b-40fb-9ab7-e0e42d29b59f-installer.iso -report_el_torito plain -report_system_area plain
xorriso 1.5.4 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project.
No BIOS and UEFI configuration

Drive current: -indev '81dad475-5d3b-40fb-9ab7-e0e42d29b59f-installer.iso'
Media current: stdio file, overwriteable
Media status : is blank
Media summary: 0 sessions, 0 data blocks, 0 data, 47.1g free
xorriso : NOTE : No El Torito information was loaded

2. Another command have the following output:

El Torito img path :   1  /images/efiboot.img
On a bios bootable image it will also have entries for
