Kickstart to RootFS Builder

This project provides the ability build rootfs file from kickstart input file in a docker/podman container environment. Output rootfs files can be used create base images for different OSs (AlmaLinux, Cent OS, Rocky Linux) etc.

HOW-TO

Image yet ot published in hub.docker.com, until then use local build.

Building local

docker build -t srbala/ks2rootfs:alma .

Using Image

Following command under tests folder. Run command uses the kickstarts/almalinux-8-default.x86_64.ks file to build.

Use command below to create default docker files

docker run --rm --privileged -v "$PWD:/build:z" \
    -e BUILD_KICKSTART=kickstarts/almalinux-8-default.x86_64.ks \
    -e BUILD_ROOTFS=almalinux-8-docker-default.x86_64.tar.gz \
    -e BUILD_OUTDIR=default \
    srbala/ks2rootfs:alma

Use command below to create minimal docker files

docker run --rm --privileged -v "$PWD:/build:z" \
    -e BUILD_KICKSTART=kickstarts/almalinux-8-minimal.x86_64.ks \
    -e BUILD_ROOTFS=almalinux-8-docker-minimal.x86_64.tar.gz \
    -e BUILD_OUTDIR=minimal \
    srbala/ks2rootfs:alma
