Yes, this is happening when using the ISO and anaconda. It should be listed
as a supported installation method, if not we should correct the documentation.

Seems to only happen with some media. Samsung EVO 16G cards are fine for me,
but using brands like Adata or Silcon & Power fail. Perhaps we recommend
only using certain media?

This was fixed by removing all consoles from the kernel args. Oddly, in the
most recent images we still have 'console=tty0' which causes all output to
go to the display and none on serial console (at least on the rpi). The
original issue is fixed, but I included it to keep track of the new console
issue, apologies for the confusion.

Boot fails when no wired network is available.


Thanks for testing!
