Re: CentOS7 Raspberry Pi4 PXE-boot root on iscsi

Well, I've never done anything like that, but I have a couple of suspicions/questions,
1) initramfs/dracut are not used to boot the rpi from the sd card or from ssd, so I'd start by testing that while still using the sd card.
2) Where is the rpi actually booting from? using what method?

it said it can't find /dev/mmcblk0p3 , when changed cmdline.txt it could not find PARTUUID=f83320a7-02
Boot partition for partuuid is -03, not -02, you could also change it to /dev/sda3 (that's what I normally do)

Re: CentOS - Raspberry PI 4

Would you be willing to change the cmdline.txt to use the PARTUUID? Then the image won't need any modification to work between sdcard vs usb. Yeah, I need to find a way to do this dynamically, because I'm guessing that the prefix would change every time the image is created, but that would solve th...

Re: Virtualization (for KVM) not available on Raspberry 4 ?

I have the same log and everything works as expected, I'm not that familiar with the internals of libvirtd to know if this a problem or not, though from the way it works, it doesn't seem to be

Re: Can centos 8 boot from usb for raspbery pi 4

Hello Pablo, I am using your image for the Rpi4, do you think you can rebuild the image with encryption support to let say boot from an encrypted device? This option is not available because we cannot normally select the encryption options like we would on a PC installation of CentOS. Thanks Which ...

Re: CentOS - Raspberry PI 4

Hi there, Thank you for packaging CentOS 8 for Raspberry Pi 4 ! I've installed it properly on mine. How should I go about adding support for KVM ? As far as I understand I would have to compile the raspberry kernel from source on the raspi (or cross compile) and create the image as you did. You hav...

Hello.. :) . Is there an image for a raspberry 3+? :roll:
The same image should work without issues in the 3B+ if you want to use it in aarch64 mode

Re: Virtualization (for KVM) not available on Raspberry 4 ?

You don't see kvm with lsmod because it is built as a part of the kernel, not as module (CONFIG_KVM=Y).
I just booted an aarch64 VM inside my 4G rpi4 without issues.
Aside from that, most of what you linked wrt kvm, has too many references to the x86_64 arch, so you may need to ignore that

Re: Can centos 8 boot from usb for raspbery pi 4

Yes, it can, right now the mainline kernel support for the rpi4 is not great (but it is getting there), so it is much easier to do it using the foundation's kernel. You basically need to dd this image https://people.centos.org/pgreco/CentOS-Userland-8-stream-aarch64-RaspberryPI-Minimal-4/CentOS-User...

Re: CentOS - Raspberry PI 4

After a couple of days poking around (I'm new at this) I got it to boot. Hurray! Now, if I want to use your image to boot the Pi off of a USB attached drive, instead of the microSD, how do I do that? You dd it to the disk just like you did to the microSD card, then you edit the cmdline.txt in the f...
