Hi there, I'm fighting with a really weird issue. I've been building ISOs with Kiwi for years. I use a VPS running openSUSE 15.2 and whatever is the latest version of Kiwi to build live ISOs based on Tumbleweed or Leap 15.2. My most recent successful builds based on Tumbleweed were on 2020-07-29. But during the past week I have tried to build ISOs based on the Kiwi descriptions that I saved from that last date, and I haven't changed them. The ISOs generate successfully and they boot, but there are corrupt files and dmesg complains about bad blocks in the squashfs. Newly generated Leap-based ISOs are fine. I generated an ISO from the http://download.opensuse.org/history/20200807/tumbleweed snapshot, before kernel 5.8.0 appeared, which does not exhibit this bug. I'm almost sure that this is the culprit, but I'd appreciate it if someone more knowledgeable could confirm it: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=93e72b3c612adcaca13d874fcc86c53e6c8da541 Here are more details on this bug that I filed with the Kiwi people: https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/issues/1531 Thanks a lot!
