Manifests for rpm-ostree based Fedora variants

This is the configuration needed to create rpm-ostree based variants of Fedora. Each variant is described in a YAML treefile which is then used by rpm-ostree to compose an ostree commit with the package requested.

In the Fedora infrastructure, this happens via pungi with Lorax (templates).

Fedora Silverblue

Fedora Kinoite

Building

Instructions to perform a local build of Silverblue:

# Clone the config
git clone https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config && cd workstation-ostree-config

# Prepare directories
mkdir -p repo cache
ostree --repo=repo init --mode=archive

# Build (compose) the variant of your choice
sudo rpm-ostree compose tree --repo=repo --cachedir=cache fedora-silverblue.yaml

# Update summary file
ostree summary --repo=repo --update

Testing

Instructions to test the resulting build:

simple-http-server --index --ip 192.168.122.1 --port 8000

  • Then, on an already installed Silverblue system:
# Add an ostree remote
sudo ostree remote add testremote http://192.168.122.1:8000/repo --no-gpg-verify

# Pin the currently deployed (and probably working) version
sudo ostree admin pin 0

# List refs from variant remote
sudo ostree remote refs testremote

# Switch to your variant
sudo rpm-ostree rebase testremote:fedora/rawhide/x86_64/silverblue

# Reboot and test!
