Solved FIPS and Red Hat
-
Anyone had to deal with FIPS before? The grub.conf file has
fips=1
and I've rundracut
to rebuild the initramfs. However, I still get an output offips_enabled = 0
. Prelinking is turned off and I've even completely removed the prelink package.If I run
dracut -f
it boots back up and just gives mefips_enabled = 0
. However if I rundracut -f -m fips
I get a kernel panic and it shuts off. Not sure where to being troubleshooting. -
Well I figured it out in case anyone cares. The
/etc/grub.conf
wasn't being copied to the/boot/grub/grub.conf
file. Not really sure why, but we have a password on grub so that might possibly be it. I didn't create this kickstart, so I'm not sure what post install junk is happening that might limit this also.
