Out of curiosity is there a central account database fedora can use similar to Active directory to synchronise user accounts (i.e. one place to change an admin password instead of per machine)

Hec, even something like windows live login would be awesome

Active directory, freeipa, so on there are few options

If I can enroll an admin account to FreeIPA running on a Docker based server, with minimal human interaction for the workstation OS install, that's the route that's probably best. I'm hoping a single point to change the Admin/Root password across all machines would be pretty useful

AlextricalOP•12/3/23, 5:10 PM

I'm familiar enough with setting up a Windows domain, just doing something similar on Linux is rather new to me

Just want to fully get rid of M$ rubbish from my life and the communities I'm helping out, where possible

AAlextrical Good shout, thank you for the heads up. Hopefully we can collaborate

Howdy! I've got some public discussion over here

Universal Blue

Building a bootable qcow2 virtual disk image from an OCI OSTree image

Hi folks

I’m with ii.nz

and am trying to build bootable USB drives for things like education for classes and shared team development environments. Recently I came across GitHub - osbuild/osbuild-deploy-container, where a qcow2 image can be built, given an OCI OSTree image (i.e: a Universal Blue image). I built a qcow2 image for my u imag...

Awesome, Is the intended application you are aiming to achieve something similar to a LiveBoot (On par with Windows to Go?)

AlextricalOP•12/4/23, 1:48 PM

Can anyone advise how to apply a RPM file hosted in GitHub into the Recipe.yml

I'm trying to get "STL Thumb" intergrated into the system.

AlextricalOP•12/4/23, 2:11 PM

To answer my own question, Looking at the Bling for devpod shows how to use rpm-ostree to install a RPM file directly from a URL

AlextricalOP•12/4/23, 3:52 PM

So. It's installed, as it shows as a conflict if I try to install from the updated OS image, woop. However I cannot get the command to run from terminal, presumably wherever it's installed to isn't the correct location.

The counter problem is it's also an application I've had to compile as a rpm too, so that is also a likely place for the issue. Why do rabbit holes always go so deep in projects

le_melon•12/4/23, 6:40 PM

I think so!
Not completely familiar with Windows to Go but it sounds familiar.

Pretty much an install preloaded with a default user and default software for a specific purpose, being an education resource

AlextricalOP•12/4/23, 8:04 PM

I would be happy to collaborate, it could be useful for some makerspaces out there wanting to allow users to use their own laptops with a pre-loaded system too.

Making an atomic Live USB boot device with persistent storage should be pretty useful to some people ^_^

That sounds great!

I'm keeping track of progress here
https://github.com/ii/uedu/issues/1 and the discourse as linked before.
Also talking to folks in the image-builder channel of the Fedora project Matrix

Some of which are here too I think

at the moment im going down a rabbit hole trying to get a STL thumbnail generator working. (good news, it works for Fedora KDE Workstation, but not Kinoite)

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:36 PM

@bsherman tomorrow is 37 day but if we wanna start nuking from orbit asap that wouldn't hurt either

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:36 PM

(It's the only way to be sure)

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:38 PM

@beekabop I tried the new release-please action in kera and it broke with the major upgrade

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:38 PM

I was hoping we could skip all that breaking change stuff

beekabop•12/4/23, 9:39 PM

wow

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:42 PM

oh we just need release-type: simplerelease-type: simple

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:43 PM

that one was set to node

beekabop•12/4/23, 9:43 PM

i see! good to know

j0rge•12/4/23, 9:44 PM

we should be good with the dependabot ones

beekabop•12/4/23, 9:56 PM

can we change the type in the pr itself, as suggest change, and commit, or do we need to set it afterwards in a new pr

beekabop•12/4/23, 9:56 PM

i see some are type node, and some are simple already

beekabop•12/4/23, 10:46 PM

well anyhows i have submitted release-type: simple pr's everywhere

j0rge•12/4/23, 10:57 PM

ok I'll check when I get back from dinner unless someone else gets to them first. The kera one failed but I think it's for another reason.

beekabop•12/4/23, 10:57 PM

oh otherwise just close all the pr's lol

j0rge•12/4/23, 11:00 PM

we jsut need to test a release in one

ChaiQi•12/5/23, 1:41 AM

a new soft-reboot mechanism was added that only reboots user space, leaving the kernel running, which is useful in image-based systems for updating from one image version to the next with minimal latency or loss of connectivity and state.

Fascinating

bsherman•12/5/23, 2:33 AM

I think I could work on that tonight.

j0rge•12/5/23, 2:54 AM

release please updates complete, looks like it worked on the repo I tested it on so everything else should be ok

bsherman•12/5/23, 2:54 AM

I'm actively working on F37 EOL PRs for akmods, main, nvidia... as a start

j0rge•12/5/23, 2:55 AM

bazzite and fin don't have 37 so that should be just about all of them

bsherman•12/5/23, 3:23 AM

This should be good to go... the 2 failed checks have been failing for a while, unrelated to removing 37: https://github.com/ublue-os/akmods/pull/101

bsherman•12/5/23, 3:38 AM

These are also good:

https://github.com/ublue-os/main/pull/442
https://github.com/ublue-os/nvidia/pull/176

j0rge•12/5/23, 3:44 AM

ok, first round of acks in!

no worries, and thank you!

Thank you for killing 37 lol

We have successfully done a full iteration now!

bsherman•12/5/23, 3:50 AM

Universal Blue lived for all (or nearly) of F37!

EyeCantCU•12/5/23, 3:51 AM

38 will be EOL before you know it
