F36 Silverblue Installation Fail

Thought I’d give Silverblue a try. Booted the USB, checked the iso and started the install. Everything went well until the actual install moved on to ‘Deployment starting… etc.’, then a quick fail with 'The command ‘ostree admin --sysroot=/mnt/image/deploy… etc. exited with code 1.’

I tried again with the same result. Any idea what might be going on?

Hello Joe,

Well, that looked like what I was seeing. I tried the workaround, but still no joy - same error. I will go through that thread more carefully to see if I can come up with something else to try.

Thanks much for the pointer to the bug report!

I had the same error on a PC with Windows and a previous Fedora Workstation install.

This recommendation in that quite long bug report worked for me:

rm -r /boot/EFI/fedora
