Edge Image Builder
- elcritch 2y agoSounds promising! I was literally just evaluating OpenSuse MicroOS for upgrading an embedded sensor. The whole buildroot/yocyo thing gets tiresome. Anyone else tried this yet? However, it had the same pitfalls of Canonicals Ubuntu Core / snap stuff. They all seem to require booting the device with full internet to run the setup. Then updating the local OS without internet seemed infeasible.
- yjftsjthsd-h 2y agoOdd; the page explicitly claims that's supported: > The resulting image contains all of the configuration and binary artifacts (RPMs, container images, etc.) necessary to provision the node at first boot, providing true zero-touch provisioning even in the case of low-bandwidth connections and air-gapped scenarios.
- elcritch 2y agoThis is new in the enterprise image builder, not part of MicroOS itself.
- thebeardisred 2y agoI fear this will cause the same problems I've predicted with Red Hats "Image builder": monotonically increasing storage consumption driven by teams not knowing "what's safe to delete" just like "shared drives" for the past 20 years.
