rootfs creation going forward

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So to date root filesystems have been created by a small bash script that sets 
up a couple of things and uses yum to install into the new root then you tar 
it all up. the yum repos used are defimed on the host system. its not very 
repatable or controlled.  

Attached is the script i used for making the xfce rootfs for the smartbook, i 
then put the modules etc in place and tarred it all up.

All other parts of fedora's release engineering take in kickstarts and spit 
out the output.  I think that for going forward we should look at using 
appliance-creator  which is part of the appliance-tools package to create the 
root filesystems. it will let us feed in kickstarts and help make it easier for 
those at home to play.  anyone want to start taking a look at what we would 
need to do?
