The current design of the documentation does not allow for continous improvement and development. It's missing a basic structure and concept for documenting step-by-step workflows and generic explanations.

Build a Virtual Disk Image
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
.. hint::
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have checked out the example image descriptions
|
|
For details see :ref:`example-descriptions`
|
|
|
|
The following example shows how to build and run a simple system
|
|
disk image based on SUSE Leap
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ sudo kiwi-ng --type vmx system build \
|
|
--description kiwi-descriptions/suse/x86_64/suse-leap-42.1-JeOS \
|
|
--target-dir /tmp/myimage
|
|
|
|
Find the image with the suffix :file:`.raw` below :file:`/tmp/myimage`.
|
|
For testing the disk image a virtual machine with the disk image attached
|
|
can be used. The following example shows how to use the Qemu system to
|
|
run the image:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: bash
|
|
|
|
$ qemu \
|
|
-drive file=LimeJeOS-Leap-42.1.x86_64-1.42.1.raw,format=raw,if=virtio \
|
|
-m 4096
