@Sispheor Why is there no need for a bootloader in the image? Is that not needed to be able to boot once the install is done?

I reproduced what is already there on other Rocky images and RHEL based image.
Actually there is a post install script that expect to have only one partition. Adding the bootloader make the install fail at this step.
On MaaS the deployment is wrapped by Curtin which seems to add a bootloader in the end if not present.
