Feature Request: Enable systemd-boot configuration on installation from LIVE image #1842

Closed MrPippin66 closed 13 hours ago

Describe the enhancement

Current doc indicates configuration of systemd-boot (sdboot) during initial installation is only an option via the netinst image.

Attempting to configure systemd-boot, even with "inst-sdboot" kernel option from LIVE image on x86 installation via Fedora41 fails with "Systemd-boot cannot be utilized with the current type of payload. Choose an installation media that supports package installation."

Request is for "Install to Hard Drive" option on Fedora LIVE image to support systemd-boot for boot loader vs. GRUB2.

I'm aware you can change the boot loader configuration after initial install, but would desire to not have this extra manual step be a requirement to use systemd-boot.

System details

Fedora 41 x86 LIVE USB image

UEFI based 64-bit host with UEFI boot enabled.

This is the issue tracker for Fedora CoreOS and we don't support using systemd-boot nor Anaconda for installing it.
