Hello,

this seems like you’re using bootdisk plugin. The error has been fixed in foreman_bootdisk 12.0.0, which has landed to our nightly repos. @lzap is there a plan to cherry-pick this to older versions of bootdisk? With Foreman 1.16, there was bootdisk 10.0.2.

More details can be found at

I currently don’t have plans, the workaround should be pretty easy, just replace bootdisk_raise with raise in both bootdisk templates and you will see the error which prevents you from generating the image.
