With the move of CentOS8 to stream Rocky Linux has come out to replace it as the go to RHEL Clone.  When can we expect to see Rocky Linux as a supported OS?  Currently it detects Rocky Linux as SUSE which is weird as I would think it should detect it as CentOS or RHEL.

Hey, Scott - I haven’t heard anything specific, but I can do some digging & ask around to see if it’s on the roadmap. 

Hi, Scott - I talked to one of our Sr. Tech. PM’s last week, and he’s running it by some engineers. I’ll let you know what I find out!

Bump, still unable to install for Rocky Linux 8, here is the error:

Installing package...
bash: line 297: zypper: command not found

Any update of Rocky Linux support for Automox?
