• RHEL 8 terminated support for some hardware devices that may still be relevant. The solution may be to use the centosplus kernel and prepared by the ELRepo project iso images with additional drivers;
• The automatic procedure for adding AppStream-Repo does not work when using boot.iso and installing over NFS;
• The installation media offers an incomplete dotnet2.1 component, so if you need to install the dotnet package, you must install it separately from the repository;
• PackageKit cannot define local DNF/YUM variables.
