  I installed a 9-stream VM from kickstart today, so I don’t think it is a general issue. Did you look at the logs to see what is happening?

  Also here, installing a couple CS9 VMs with the same ks file works flawless.

  For the sake of extending the view field I tested this ks with F35 and F36 images. The same result on this hardware. Speak, “Checking storage configuration” forever. Also a “wipe -a /dev/nvme0n1” beforehand didn’t help. So, it must be a low-level issue specifically to this hardware (dell notebook). Its just strange that a graphical installation done manually works without such issue.

  Someone with any idea?
