Per the inline comment, a machine-id is required for kernels to install correctly (this may well be a bug, but the linked issue remained inconclusive). Add a call to make the machine-id before install packages. Change-Id: If75d04376e62bfdfe14ee3ca4d0bd5c8b383c1b0 Redhat-Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737355 |

rhel
Use RHEL cloud images as the baseline for built disk images.
Because RHEL base images are not publicly available, it is necessary
to first download the RHEL cloud image from the Red Hat Customer Portal
and pass the path to the resulting file to disk-image-create as the
DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE environment variable.
The cloud image can be found at (login required): RHEL8: https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/479/ver=/rhel---8/8.0/x86_64/product-software RHEL7: https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/69/ver=/rhel---7/7.1/x86_64/product-downloads
Then before running the image build, define DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE (replace the file name with the one downloaded, if it differs from the example):
export DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE=rhel-8.0-x86_64-kvm.qcow2The downloaded file will then be used as the basis for any subsequent image builds.
For further details about building RHEL images, see the rhel-common and redhat-common element README files.
