fails to install packages/scripts/profiles with "macOS Installer Disk Image URL:"

[Brandon Walter]

Build 30108

10.15 recovery

Installing via “hdiutil mount http://mywebsite.com/mds.dmg” results in only the OS being installed and skips the Imagr installer. Imagr doesn’t even show at boot, just goes to setup user screen. It’s the same as installing from a regular Recovery image.

‌

It DOES WORK if you include the DMG as a “Local Installer”

Interesting. The log shows that the installer does not include the packages:

‌

"/Volumes/Install_macOS_10.14.6-18G103/Applications/Install macOS Mojave.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall" "--agreetolicense" "--rebootdelay" "5" "--pidtosignal" "688" "--volume" "/Volumes/Macintosh HD" "--nointeraction" 

‌

I’ll look into it and get it fixed. thank for reporting (and for all the details).

@Dave Lebbing

can you see if you can replicate this and update imagr as needed? It definitely seems related to Imagr. We’ll get the fix in an update.

Confirmed this issue results from a bug in Imagr when machine has enough ram to run startOSinstall with ramdisk option. Pushed proposed fix to Imagr repo.

Can also workaround this by manually editing Deploy/Config/config.plist to set workflow ramdisk option to false.
