I checked with GenericCloud images (in case it was related to the images I was building with kickstart)

http://185.231.100.123/rocky-linux/9/images/x86_64/Rocky-9-GenericCloud-9.0-20220830.0.x86_64.qcow2

https://repo.almalinux.org/almalinux/9/cloud/x86_64/images/AlmaLinux-9-GenericCloud-9.0-20220527.x86_64.qcow2

It looks like the issue is only with Rocky.

><fs> inspect-os

/dev/sda5

><fs> inspect-get-distro /dev/sda5

rocky

><fs> inspect-os

/dev/sda4

><fs> inspect-get-distro /dev/sda4

redhat-based

I assumed it would also affect AlmaLinux since it affected Rocky – sorry!

(Not sure if related but I tested this on AlmaLinux host)

Thanks!
