3. chroot to mnt.
# chroot /mnt
4. Disable apparmor and you will get the odd output bellow, but don’t worry it means it worked:
# systemctl disable apparmor apparmor.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install Executing /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install disable apparmor insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script apparmor' overrides LSB defaults (S). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (S) of script
apparmor’ overrides LSB defaults (empty).
5. Eject the DVD from the server and reboot back to local and server should boot right up.
