Bluefin GTS installer missing udev module

[cablespaghetti]

Describe the bug

Related to JasonN3/build-container-installer#151

I downloaded the latest GTS image today and tried to boot the installer on an old laptop (BIOS not UEFI if it’s significant).

Anaconda failed to start due to a missing udev Python module.

Here is a “screenshot”

What did you expect to happen?

The anaconda installer starts so I can install my Bluefin goodness.

Looks like there's already a PR in the works to fix this in the upstream build-container-installer action: JasonN3/build-container-installer#152

Investigating now, what image did you download? I can get you a backup link to an older ISO in the meantime.

[cablespaghetti]

No stress I'm happily running stable on the laptop now. Just the basic GTS image.

Evidence of successful stable deployment:

I'm copying over the known-good backups into the cloudflare bucket now while we investigate the installer, thanks for catching this!

This should take a few minutes, I'll update this issue when the copy is complete, then a redownload should do the trick, thanks!

[castrojo]

Ok copy complete, if you wouldn't mind giving it a shot now!

[cablespaghetti]

I think you've copied over a Fedora 39 based image. Is that by design?

(But yes it boots the installer)

[castrojo]

It's the backup we have, after installation it'll upgrade you to the right version (either automatically or you can run the update manually). We've confirmed this is a GTS-only problem.

I've added a note on the website in the meantime. We'll freshen them up when we find a fix!

[cablespaghetti]

Sounds good. Maybe I can be useful and make a PR to store some number of historical images in the build pipeline depending on your appetite for cloud storage bills?

[castrojo]

Yeah it's about 4 bucks now, wouldn't hurt to hold another set or two! We'd only need this in gts and stable.

We make ISOs for latest but don't post them on the website so those we can probably remove them entirely.

Also might be prudent to just do a run of them during a release instead of building them weekly.
