Installer patches to fix this issue was already submitted, but the ISOs built don't contain them.
The pxe-network-installer RPM is not looking for the patched files.

[Ghada Khalil (gkhalil)]

Marking as release gating as this issue was recently introduced by changes related to the installer.
Scott Little is working on a fix.

[Scott Little (slittle1)]

Found a second hard coded reference to the 0.2 postfixed kernal and initrd in the CENGN build scripts.
This has been corrected. Should be available in builds after Jan 5 2018.

Juan Carlos, can you please retest?

[Juan Carlos Alonso (juancarlosa)]

I use the latest ISO CENGN build http://mirror.starlingx.cengn.ca/mirror/starlingx/master/centos/latest_build/outputs/iso/

the issue is still present:

system host-show controller-1 | grep install
| install_output | text
| install_state | None
| install_state_info | None

The ISO generated has the scripts updated right?
Do I need to do something else to enable and see install states?

[Scott Little (slittle1)]

Directory also needed to be renamed from tis-installer to stx-installer in the jenkins scripts.
I should have an image to test in 3 hours.

[Scott Little (slittle1)]

Image is ready at.

http://mirror.starlingx.cengn.ca/mirror/starlingx/master/centos/20190109T162801Z/outputs/iso/bootimage.iso

Mounted the iso and verified checksums, this one does has the modified image.

Juan Carlos, please retest one more time.
