One of the sub-headers is "BTRFS is good for "pet" systems".

The defaults *really matter* here in particular, even more than Workstation.

It works today to boot up a stock Fedora CoreOS AMI, OpenStack qcow2 etc. and provide an Ignition config that changes it: No need for "ignition". This has worked since grub and anaconda were created by using '%pre' scripts in anaconda to pre-partition the file-system and potentially insert other pre-configuration steps in it. If ignition has new integration features rather than the manual scripting I used to do, great. But ignition is not required for this. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
