[BlueOnyx:24952] 5210R: ISO image updated

[Michael Stauber]

Hi all,

AlmaLinux 8.4 has been released. An updated ISO image for BlueOnyx 5210R
has been published.

We released an updated ISO image for BlueOnyx 5210R, containing all
updates and enhancements that had been published to the YUM repositories
since the last release. As always: Existing BlueOnyx 5210R installs can
of course be YUM updated to the latest version without the need for a
reinstall.

Newest 5210R version (EFI and non-EFI support):

BlueOnyx-5210R-AlmaLinux-8.4-20210527.iso

Please note: This is a somewhat bastardized image in so far that it does
install BlueOnyx 5210R and AlmaLinux 8.4, but for that it uses the
AlmaLinux 8.3 installer from the previously released ISO images.

The installers from the AlmaLinux 8.4 ISO have inherited an issue from
upstream where the installer might sit for ages waiting for the answer
from a DHCP server before it finally times out with a Dracut error
message that terminates the install. Using the first and second stage
installers from the older ISO helps us to get around this issue for now.
