Hi @schen,

Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, `mkosi` has been known for some time now to be problematic, see also [Help Automating OS Image Creation with Mkosi for Mender-Compatible Deployment? - #6 by bssi](https://hub.mender.io/t/help-automating-os-image-creation-with-mkosi-for-mender-compatible-deployment/7337/6). Maybe `debos` as mentioned might be a viable solution for you?

Greetz,  
Josef
