## Available images
# Operating system sources
### Fedora 38
At the moment these demonstration builds use Fedora 38 and CentOS Stream 9.

# Tiers
## Tier 0
### CentOS Stream 9
This is the basic tier; it has effectively just:

- kernel systemd selinux-policy-targeted bootc
## What's in them?
You are generally going to need to generate derived images from this; installing
it on its own will boot to a system with no automatic networking support, no SSH,
and no default passwords etc.
The [current manifest definitions](tier-1/) were forked from Fedora CoreOS, but significantly
## Tier 1
This is larger system.
- NetworkManager, chrony
- rpm-ostree (to install packages and in case it's useful "day 2")
- openssh-server
At the current time, it does not include Ignition or cloud-init; so you will
still need to derive from it in order to inject a mechanism to log in in many
cases. However, it will work to install it using e.g. Anaconda and set up
users and passwords that way.

## More about image sources
The current manifest definitions [tier-0](tier-0) and [tier-1](tier-1) were forked from Fedora CoreOS, but significantly
cut down.
The existing content set is obviously subject to change and debate.
Ideally, we support a workflow where even `rpm-ostree` can be removed after builds.
# Building
Here's an example command:
```
$ sudo rpm-ostree compose image --authfile ~/.config/containers/myquay.json --cachedir=cache -i --format=oci fedora.yaml fedora.oci
$ sudo rpm-ostree compose image --authfile ~/.config/containers/myquay.json --cachedir=cache -i --format=ociarchive centos-tier-0-stream9.yaml centos-tier-0-stream9.ociarchive
```
In some situations, copying to a local `.ociarchive` file is convenient. You can also push to a registry with `--format=registry`.
