Troubleshooting
Start with the failed layer instead of rerunning everything.
1. Read the installer log
The common log records step boundaries and command execution results. See State & Logs for locations.
2. Run Full Configuration Validation
Validation can reveal missing packages, unavailable libvirt resources, networking prerequisites, image problems or configuration mismatches.
3. Re-run only the failed step
Use Execute Specific Step after correcting the issue. Because the installers are step-based, a failure does not require a full reinstall.
Common checks
Virtualization / IOMMU
Verify CPU virtualization support and IOMMU status before passthrough-dependent steps.
libvirt
Confirm the libvirt service, VM definitions and virtual networks are present and healthy.
Host networking
Review interfaces, addresses and routes before and after network conversion.
Storage
Review disks, physical volumes, volume groups and logical volumes before provisioning.
Recovery principle
Do not force state forward. Preserve logs, correct the failing prerequisite, and re-run the specific step.Last modified on September 22, 2026
