Demonstration bootable container base images

The intention is to introduce "bootable" base images that pair with existing "application" base images, e.g.:

  • quay.io/fedora/fedora-boot:39
  • quay.io/centos/centos-boot:stream9

These images are technology demonstrators, not for production use. The intention is that these images are generated by the OS vendor or distribution. Or, you can fork this repository and generate your own via rpm-ostree compose image.

Available images

Fedora 38

registry.gitlab.com/cgwalters-playground/bootc-demo-base-images/fedora-boot:latest

CentOS Stream 9

registry.gitlab.com/cgwalters-playground/bootc-demo-base-images/c9s-boot

What's in them?

The current manifest definitions 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
