I would like to figure out if anyone has proposed any kind of standard
for storing metadata about a system image.
We need to track metadata about an image that has been flashed to a
device. /etc/os-release is really good for tracking information about
the operating system, but it doesn't allow us to distinguish between 2
images of the same operating system having a different set of packages
and configurations.
Our idea was to ship a /etc/base-image file
What's wrong with using /etc/os-release as intended along with the keys
in the spec e.g. IMAGE_ID and IMAGE_VERSION ?
Thanks
