Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Not sure, whatever comes with Satellite 6.11 / RHEL 9 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: Run provisioning Actual results: Dropped to emergency shell Expected results: The actual error is shown Additional info: The failed installation is tracked in support ticket 03333044 and bug 2138320 but the missing initrd_errors.txt might be a general problem, masking the actual problem. I also filed a bug with dracut but they referred me to you guys: https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/issues/2047
