Using Anaconda's rescue mode doesn't work with image mode installations, i. e. installations with ostreecontainer or bootc commands using a bootable container as a payload. In such a case, Anaconda doesn't find an installed system during a scan in rescue mode, as it uses different paths within the filesystem, and therefore the only option is to access it manually.

Affected version

anaconda-40.22.3.39-1.el10

Steps to reproduce

• Install a bootable container image using ostreecontainer or bootc kickstart command.
• Start Anaconda in rescue mode.
• When presented with the rescue mode menu, choose to scan for existing linux installations.

Expected results

The system installed from bootable container image is found and made accessible (even with some limitations based on its nature).

Actual results

No installed system(s) found.
