I ended up just installing CentOS.

If you don't have a raid controller with battery-backed cache - disable the raid in bios. Fake raids are just like software raid, use the cpu for calculations and could be a potential problem if the Motherboard dies. Software raid (controlled by mdadm) and lvm raid (sane driver but controlled from lvm) can easily be recovered on any type of linux (as long as it is not too old ofc) and do not have the minuses of the fake raid.

So, following your advise, what I did was "dd status=progress if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=1" and that did indeed fix the anaconda starting up issue. By the way, when I said mirrored, it's raid 1, so if I do to one, I do on both at the same time. The raid is being done and managed on the bios. Maybe poor wording on my side. The thing is, as soon as I try to create partitions/LVMs it returns me an error. Here's the three different outputs: LVM Thin Provisioning https://i.imgur.com/tfbi0oo.jpg (curiously, it's the same output error as when it crashed) LVM https://i.imgur.com/nJXo3aK.jpg Standard Partition https://i.imgur.com/j6gNRpo.jpg After taking the screenshots above, I tried the same process using a CentOS7 minimal image on text mode to see the output, and there's no error output what so ever. Out of curiosity, I tried with a 4.3.3 ovirt node image and I had similar error as above(above I'm using 4.3.4) with a slight different wording, but still the same issue. ___ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/23EXVASBCCERKQYRV3XNE3POPWX5DWDQ/

Can you wipe the beggining of both SD cards via 'dd' ?I have seen similar issues on CentOS's anaconda with extraordinary disk setups. Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov В сряда, 3 юли 2019 г., 20:34:58 ч. Гринуич+3, rubentrind...@live.com написа: Hello there! I'm trying to install an oVirt node(the most stable recent one) on a machine(just in case you didn't figure from the title :P) and anaconda just crashes \o/ I've tried to start anaconda in text mode, but the error is the exact same. Here's a screenshot of the event(text mode, although it shouldn't matter): https://i.imgur.com/ihO1xWP.jpg The only "disk" attached to the machine has no partitions, it's absolutely clean. The machine in question is a PowerEdge M520, if that matters, and I'm trying to install on top of a pair of 32GB mirrored SD cards. I installed CentOS7 on a machine that's virtually the same(they're the exact same, but aren't the same machine) and didn't have any problem. I just have no idea. Never encountered such problem. So any help would be very appreciated.
