Hi everyone , if you want to install salt stack minion on your Rocky Liunx , please consider this workaround:  
open the file  
/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/grains/core.py and:

- into the list \_OS\_NAME\_MAP add at the end “rocky”: “Rocky” ,
- into the list \_OS\_FAMILY\_MAP add “Rocky”: “Redhat” ,  
Don’t forget to remove the comma if you adding that at the end of the list.  
Then restart salt stack minion
