#482 Kinoite: "This iso is not supported" during F39 install "test this media and install"
Closed: Deferred to upstream by farchord. Opened by boredsquirrel.

Recently installed Kinoite on a friends laptop, fresh boot, image burned with fedora media writer.

Clicked on "test this media and install" and it exited with "this image is not supported". Instead of allowing to install it requires a reboot (different issue).

Is Kinoite/Atomic/KDE generally not supported by this tester?


@jgrulich do you know what's up here?

I've just tested in a virtual machine and it passed the hash check and started the installer so it's likely an issue with the way you moved the iso to you installer device.

I used this kinoite 39-1.5 iso and burned it with Fedora media writer for Windows.

So either it is a Fedora media writer issue, or an issue with the latest ISO

I'm trying to reproduce this right now. I first tried to boot directly from the ISO on qemu (virt-manager), works fine. Then, I used a USB key, and used Fedora Image Writer (On Linux) to write the image on it, and did a device redirection to boot from that usb key. Worked fine too.

Now I'm trying the same thing, but using my Windows VM and burning it on the USB key, then I'm gonna try to boot from it both from the VM and from bare metal.

I'll let you know.

Yep, writing the image from the Windows version of Fedora Image Writer fails:

Gonna see about submitting a bug right now.

Actually, I'll close this considering this isn't related to the KDE sig, but I'd recommend following that bug report. Thanks!
