Hi,

Just an update on Oracle Linux. Updated Maas to version 3.5.1 as mentioned here:

But still had errors when deploying OL: Oracle Linux 8 and 9 not being deployed

It seems to be complaining about netplan and cloudinit not being installed.

Hi,

please make sure the name of the boot resource has the ol/ prefix (as shown bellow), otherwise it won’t by-pass these checks

maas $PROFILE boot-resources create \
    name='ol/8.8' title='Oracle Linux 8.8' \
    architecture='amd64/generic' filetype='tgz' \
    content@=ol8.tar.gz

Hi,

Thanks. I have tried and it doesn’t throw the errors now but still fails after the last reboot getting stuck here:

image

and jumping into grub:

image

I need to use two bonds in the server , one of them with a vlan (all configured from MaaS). Could it be some incompatibility at this level?

image
image979×513 63.7 KB

The same network setup works with Ubuntu 20,22,24 custom images as well as debian one.

I’m seeing the same problem with custom/almalinux9 image. I understand from previous posts that it won’t attempt to do this if the prefix custom/ is used but clearly it is.

I would deeply appreciate any advice you have.

Looking at the source, I’m curious if it is possible to have custom rhel versions? You seem to know what to do for RHEL images. But it doesn’t seem to accept rhel/almalinux9 as input…
