Is there a way to install RPM's? Even just extracting the contents into the usr folder would work, though i cant seem to achieve that with 'rpm2cpio' either

I believe that Explicit Sync is also needed for AMD & Intel too.
Will test this new update when I get home on AMD system.

I have a project in the cncf with a dockerfile in need of a github action to publish the container in ghcr.io. I did something similar for another project and can walk you through it. But if someone has "contribute to a cncf project" on their goal list, lmk.

Would love to help with this. Will be busy for the next couple hours but I'll certainly have the time later this afternoon to look into it

I'll have more over time, but if someone is going to claim it do it on github so it's clear who's got it

What terminal out of curiosity?

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 3:37 PM

Onyx images seem to have an issue following a rebase. It's impossible to login

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 3:38 PM

Even via TTY oddly

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 3:39 PM

Going to try changing the target run level. Imagine this is somehow related to lightdm

I know, it's awesome too!

j0rge•12/6/23, 4:40 PM

you can grab the flatpak from ci and install it via the instructions in the readme

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 5:12 PM

Absolutely awesome. Would be amazing to integrate this into Bazzite/Bluefin DX images

I'm fully switching bluefin to it when it gets pushed to flathub

Robert•12/6/23, 5:18 PM

Could this be useful for populating /opt or similar during container build-time?

I don't know if my interpretation of the changelog is correct, but my understanding is that if you shove stuff in /usr/share/factory/var (such as 1Password stuff or RPMs that expect to be able to write to /opt?), it will be copied to /var on boot

RRobert Could this be useful for populating /opt or similar during container build-time?...

akdev•12/6/23, 5:20 PM

The easy solution would be to create a symlink in /opt -> /usr/share/factory/var/opt in the container during build time and remove it at the end of the build

le_melon•12/6/23, 7:41 PM

Does this have positive implications for including pre-installed Flatpaks and Homebrew?

akdev•12/6/23, 8:47 PM

Flatpaks probably not a good idea

akdev•12/6/23, 8:47 PM

As it would require double the storage

le_melon•12/6/23, 11:00 PM

However, it may work yeah?

Lle_melon However, it may work yeah?

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 11:07 PM

At one point I was doing something similar to this but caching it in a different directory. Suffice to say it led to monstrous image sizes that toppled over what GHCR could handle. I would say no as is. There's some work being done to make this process better though

EyeCantCU•12/6/23, 11:09 PM

The problem is you're not just bringing.in the program. You take in the deps too. Which as you can imagine, especially for systems that use the NVIDIA driver, this can be huuuge

Kyle Gospo•12/6/23, 11:11 PM

makes every update bigger too untl diffed downloads is complete

Lle_melon However, it may work yeah?

akdev•12/6/23, 11:29 PM

Yeah but it is already possible to do that with Lorax (not sure about osbuild)

Fedora upstream does it like this: https://github.com/akdev1l/mkociso/blob/main/src/mkociso/lorax_templates/lorax-embed-flatpaks.tmpl

EyeCantCU•12/7/23, 7:04 PM

Even if it could handle the larger image sizes, Kyle makes a good point. Bigger and bigger updates would be a hurdle as well

le_melon•12/7/23, 7:08 PM

I'm interested in how this can be solved in a way where the image size isn't through the room and at least some Flatpaks are pre-installed. Does the standard Fedora Silverblue ISO not include any Flatpaks by default?

EyeCantCU•12/7/23, 7:11 PM

Standard GNOME version does but only in the installation media

EyeCantCU•12/7/23, 7:11 PM

They are not shipped on the image itself

EyeCantCU•12/7/23, 7:11 PM

We can do this with lorax

EyeCantCU•12/7/23, 7:11 PM

But the isogenerator we have in place doesn't support it

le_melon•12/7/23, 7:26 PM

OK, gotcha

le_melon•12/7/23, 7:28 PM

The purpose of what I'm trying to achieve is to have a pre-installed OS on a bootable USB media to have software, a user account all there.
I'm wondering if it's possible with osbuild, given I'm using this
https://github.com/osbuild/bootc-image-builder and bootcbootc (trialing each for the purpose)
