Thanks for writing down here your self-notes, it’s useful for distribution developers to have an insight on what users do when provisioning FCOS instances.
That said, I see you are installing RPMs from a CD and manually tweaking them. I fear that is a very fragile approach and likely to break at some point during an auto-upgrade cycle.
The same RPMs seems to be available in Fedora 32 repos. Did you try just installing those? Is there a reason to carry custom/older ones via a CD?
