<p>The installer is happy to work with Red Hat, CentOS, and Rocky.
It won't proceed when it finds Alma. Red Hat/Rocky/Alma should be
binary-compatible, so I just tweaked a file so the installer was
convinced I was running Rocky:</p>
<p><font face="monospace">echo "RockyLinux release 8.10 (Green
Obsidian)" > /etc/rockylinux-release<br>
rm -f /etc/redhat-release && ln -s
/etc/rockylinux-release /etc/redhat-release</font> <br>
</p>
<p>When the installation was complete, I switched it back</p>
<p><font face="monospace">rm -f /etc/redhat-release && ln -s
/etc/almalinux-release /etc/redhat-release</font></p>
<p>Can we get the installer logic adjusted so it will directly
handle Alma ?<br>
