Known Affected Versions:

Opened: Nov 09, 2018 Severity: 3-Major
Running a bare-metal installation via image2disk (IE, 'image2disk --format=volumes <ISO>') may fail due to a missing command in the maintenance OS.
Unable to perform bare-metal installations/installations from MOS in affected versions.
The version of MOS installed on the system is from a v14.1.0 or newer ISO, and a user attempts a bare-metal installation via the 'image2disk' command.
The installed version of MOS can be removed with the command '/usr/lib/bpdiag -a mos'. After doing this, installing a version older than 14.1.0 will re-install an older version of MOS without this issue. You can then reboot to MOS and manually run the installation using 'image2disk' from there.
