Can Fedora 28 be installed from an ISO file on an LVM partition?
I am attempting a medialess installation of Fedora 28, using an ISO image stored on an LVM partition.
After struggling for a while I found this post which helped a lot, but I am now encountering the following error :
dracut-initqueue; /sbin/iso-scan: line 35: rmdir: command not found
From dracut emergency mode I can see this is triggered by
rmdir "/run/initramfs/isoscan"
(which is created at the beginning of the script).
I guess I could comment this line, however I also found this warning on F20 documentation :
You cannot use ISO files on partitions controlled by LVM (Logical Volume Management).
I don't see this warning for more recent Fedora versions, though. Is it still accurate ?
installation fedora iso-image lvm

FWIW, I ended up using an external disk instead of the LVM partition, and didn't encounter this error. – Skippy le Grand Gourou Jun 21 at 7:25
