- Configure FCoE on live server install environment
- Install server and at the end not restart, got to the shell
- Chroot inside /target
mount -t proc none /target/proc
mount -t sysfs none /target/sys
chroot /target
- Install base dependencies:
apt install dracut dracut-network fcoe-utils
- Edit
/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/95fcoe/fcoe-up.sh
Add below variable definition (line 20)
if [ "$netif" == "eth2" ]
then
netif="eno3"
elif [ "$netif" == "eth3" ]
then
netif="eno4"
fi
This is because on boot dracut get the network interfaces as ethX, but at same time the kernel rename the interfaces to enoX, so not found it.
- Edit
/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90lvm/64-lvm.rules
Add this on top of RUN lvm_scan sentences
RUN+="/sbin/initqueue --settled --onetime --unique /sbin/kpartx -u /dev/mapper/mpatha"
- Download & Install sg3-utils version > focal_version deb
http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/s/sg3-utils/sg3-utils-udev_1.45-1ubuntu1_all.deb
apt install ./<downloaded_file>
This is because the focal version has a hard dependency of initramfs-tools that dont work with dracut.

Remove dracut: and put in one line all the config to the kernel line boot on grub.cfg.
- Modify grub.cfg and put the new reference to the iniramfs created
- Unmount all and reset
