Good Morning,
I'd like to bring something to attention. I just downloaded Server Boot Media (Netinstall) from: https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20221209.n...
I made a USB boot disk out of that and it failed to boot.
Here is what I get after choosing to install at the GRUB Menu:
error: ../../grub-core/fs/fshelp.c:257:file '/images/pxeboot/vmlinuz' not found error: ../../grub-core/loader/i386/efi/linux.c:258:you need to load the kernel first.
Press any key to continue ...
The ISO was registered as "last known good". This can't be good.
Which one really works?

Please note that "last known good" for rawhide nightlies actually means that it installs to VM, not via usb. Thanks for the report though, either myself early next week or somebody else will try this, it might be an actual bug of something specific about your configuration.
Just to be sure, did you create the usb media via Fedora Media Writer?

Interesting. That should be explicit on the page then. Some people still run server editions outside the cloud.

Kinda saw this coming. Short Answer: NO I used Rufus and never had issues with that prior to this image. The last Server edition I tried in November worked.
Thanks for the heads-up

It is.
"This is not as strong an indication of quality as official Alpha or Beta status, but at least indicates that the image successfully boots, completes a system installation, and boots to the installed system, in a straightforward virtual machine configuration."
That's right there at the top of the page.

Please try with straight dd or Fedora Media Writer. We can't be sure how any other tool writes images or if it's causing the problem.

How did I miss that?

So I did. I created the USB with Fedora Media Writer and it worked! I am sending this mail from the box. I now have added respect for Fedora Media Writer, more than ever before. I always ran to Rufus in the past.
On that note, I tender my apologies to the QA team for my baseless complaints. It is was all good.
Regards Onyeibo

That is interesting. Maybe you could open an issue with the Rufus, because they might be doing something differently and maybe they could profit from your report.

No need to apologize, it is great that everything settled so easily. I feel relieved :D
