This should result in arm64 RedHat 9 but results in aarch64 passing through and it hits a 404 on the key.

Looks like it uses $basearch and the repositories only have arm64 but even $basearch is aarch64 so it looks like some missing support here?

May i know which hardware architecture was imported well on AWS for Alma Linux 9

@driskell Suggest you try Salt 3006.5 at a minimum, if not the most recent 3006.8, https://repo.saltproject.io/salt/py3/redhat/9/aarch64/minor, no support for 3006.4

If this addresses your issue, please consider closing this issue.

@driskell Can you try with the latest bootstrap script, which was recently updated with PR #1987, and released today, 2024-07-12. If this resolves the issue, please close this issue.

Problem may be fixed with this PR #2005, which was merged today

I will close this as I do think a newer version was fine - I don’t think related to any of the changes recently and just a case of the older versions of Salt didn’t have aarch64 folders, only arm64 folders.

I have been successfully using in last few months on latest Alma Linux 9 the latest versions of 3006 and simply forgot about this. Will close it
