In December 2024, the upstream Kiwi team dropped the md5 checksum for generated
images and went with sha256, for good reason:
d4d39e481a
These changes have recently been reflected in updated `dracut-kiwi-oem-repart`
and `dracut-kiwi-oem-dump` Dracut modules, bumping to a 10.2 codebase, which
expect the sha256 checksum to be available at install time on SelfInstall ISO
images. However, in the current branch of the Kiwi builder, we use 10.1, which
generates md5 checksums, resulting in an error at deployment time as the Dracut
modules cannot find the sha256 checksum file.
NOTE: This is being put into the 3.2 branch *only* right now, as it relies on
Micro 6.0; the Kiwi changes have not yet permeated into Micro 6.1, so we'll
need to forward-port this into 3.3 when 6.1 has the new modules. Micro 6.1
images can still be built successfully on the Kiwi 10.1 branches with md5.
