To install Rancher 2.7.1 (Latest) do i need to "INSTALL_K3S_VERSION=v1.24.6+k3s1"? Can't i use the lastest k3s?

no, you need to use a version of Kubernetes that Rancher supports.
you can check the Rancher support matrix to find out what that is

Thank you! OHH! So that's why I never got Rancher to work. Is that a big deal to use v1.24.6+k3s1 instead of v1.26.3+k3s1 or is it always like that, "common practice" with Kubernetes? I thought latest was always the best path. I did understand that is the requirement for Rancher specifically.

the patch level isn’t as important as the minor version
Rancher only supports up to 1.24 at the moment

the main reason is the end of PSP in 1.25
