Hi, i’m trying to install Rocky-8.9-x86\_64-dvd1.iso burned into a USB with Rufus. The checksum is correct and the mount on usb has been done twice, but once i get to the same point once it doesn’t continue. ```auto [OK] Started cancel waiting for multipath siblings of sda. ..... [203.906597] dracut-initqueue[981]: Warning: dracut.initqueue timeout - starting timeout scripts [203.906734] dracut-initqueue[981]: Warning: Could not boot. ``` Why is this happening? ---

Rufus is not supported. If you want to use Rufus, use dd mode and try again. > **[Rocky Linux ISOs and Images - Rocky Linux Wiki](https://wiki.rockylinux.org/rocky/image/#notes-about-writing-the-isos)** > > The wiki for the Rocky Linux project ---
