Ian McLeod has a system for firing up an EC2 instance and running anaconda in that. See: https://github.com/imcleod/anaconda-ec2. I think this is probably the best approach for your use case. The alternative is to use appliance-creator, which is what we're currently using for the cloud images, but it's increasingly painful. Dennis Gilmore from Release Engineering has been patching it (and putting out new releases; there is no other active upstream) so it's still functional, but it's inherently a temperamental and fragile approach. A real-anaconda based solution is better, whether Oz, livemedia-creator, or this. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
