Doesn’t RHEL support kexec, which allows the old Linux kernel to pass
control to the new one without actually disrupting the userland?
I don't know, it might.
The last openSUSE install I did, some years ago, I remember it switched
almost seamlessly from running off the installation media to running off
the just-created (minimal) installation, and continued adding packages
from there. There was no perceptible reboot stage at all.
Just to point out this is a common Linux kernel feature, not something
specific to a particular distro.
Not sure why that would need kexec -- more likely, it used
chroot(8) or pivot_root(8).
