I just installed CentOS 8 in a VirtualBox VM, to explore it. Immediately, I noticed something strange. I insatlled it using a kickstart file, whose partitioning section is this: zerombr clearpart --all --initlabel reqpart --add-boot part pv.01 --ondisk=/dev/sda --size=1 --grow volgroup vg01 pv.01 logvol / --name=lv_root --vgname=vg01 --size=1 --grow bootloader --driveorder=sda On CentOS 7, this resulted in an XFS-formatted /boot filesystem. In CentOS 8, this created an EXT4-formatted /boot filesystem. I looked thr...

...mplete contents of the CentOS7 grub2-efi-x64-modules rpm under /tftpboot/EFI/centos/x86_64-efi. These changes will lead to a successful PXE boot. If a kickstart installation is used, one also needs to add a /boot/efi partition. Looking at a CentOS7 machine, type vfat and size 200MB should be fine; reqpart is not support under CentOS6. Last, and this untested as of yet, it looks like the bootloader location needs to be partition because the resulting disk is in GPT format.
