  1. Gain SSH Access to the Single Harvester Node
  2. Once Shelled into the Single Harvester Node edit the /usr/sbin/harv-install
  3. Using: harvester-installer’s harv-install as a reference edit around line #362 adding exit 1:
exit 1
trap cleanup exit
check_iso

save the file.

  1. Continue to configure the node, when asked to Optionally provide a Harvester Configuration URL, do so and have the config.yaml have debug enabled on install like:
install:
  debug: true

  2. Untar tar xvf the *.txz file
