Bug Description
Description:
Autoinstall config file can't be recognized and read by installer
Steps:
1) Create file autoinstall.yaml as attached
2) Create iso with lable "CIDATA" and add the autoinstall.yaml to iso
with the following command
mkisofs -J -r -V "CIDATA" -o autoinstall.iso -v ./autoinstall.yaml
or
mkisofs -r -V "CIDATA" -o autoinstall.iso -v ./autoinstall.yaml
(Note: try both upper two commands)
3) check the autoinstall.iso:
1) mount the iso and find the file autoinstall.yaml in direcotry "/"
2) it has label "CIDATA"
3) umount autoinstall.iso
4) Create a VM in ESXi with two CD/DVDS
5) One CD/DVD is mounted with focal-live-
6) power on the VM, the focal-live-
7) the installer stop and wait to input . It seems like the autoinstall.yaml can't be recognized.
Expect:
For step 7: we wish the installer can read file autoinstall.yaml and finished installation without interaction
