Glad it worked the second time. There should be 4 partitions on the disk. Partition 1 is for UEFI or bios_boot depending on your machine type. Partition 2 and Partition 3 are Root and RootBackup. So seeing a RootBackup is correct. Not seeing a Root is incorrect. If you rebooted the host in the middle of the install, or if the install hung for some reason, I can see that situation happening and see it working after uninstall/install. > > I can't activate Networking because I have that "no > hostname" error > > mentioned in another post. I think it's related to that... You can't activate networking at all? That is news to me. The node should work perfectly fine with or without a FQDN. > > > Yes, I've also seen the hostname error.
