centos8 docker image and rootfs tarball construction blocked by user interaction

  • 772

When trying to build a centos rootfs tarball the hard way (see centos docs) my livemedia-creator run hangs with:

Command

livemedia-creator --make-tar --iso=/root/boot8.iso \
--ks=/root/centos-8.ks --image-name=centos8-docker.tar.xz

Stall point

Domain installation still in progress. You can reconnect to 
the console to complete the installation process.
  • Cannot connect with virsh
  • Cannot use vnc option

So, I can't make a rootfs tarball which I'd use to make a base docker image. I let it run for a few hours, nothing of use in the logs and I gather something interactive is going on but I can't reach the console

    Centos recently released the centos8 image. It is delayed from the rest of the release by a week+ probably because they generate images once per month. Seems weird to me but it's their free OS which I'd like to use, so gratitude.
