Installation Issues

The following are known installation issues for Oracle Linux 9.

(aarch64) Minimum XFS File System Size During Install Is 300 MB

The more recent version of the xfsprogs package that's included on the Oracle Linux 9.7 ISO for Arm platforms sets a minimum XFS file system size of 300 MB. This limit isn't applied when installing on x86_64 platforms.

Because the x86_64 ISO includes RHCK, an earlier version of xfsprogs is available to maintain compatibility. On aarch64, only UEK is available and a newer version of xfsprogs is included. The 300 MB limit is set by the newer version of xfsprogs included with UEK 8.
