#!/bin/bash

# Simple script that runs a Rocky Raspberry pi creation (via appliance-creator), then inserts a UUID to the kernel boot line of the image
# after-the-fact
#
# Usage:  ./createRocky8_Image.sh  /path/to/outputfolder/
#
# Needs to be run in the same directory as the rocky rpi kickstart, as it relies on it!
#
# Exit with error if we don't have an output directory:

OUTDIR=$1
LOGDIR="logs"
LOGFILE="/create_image`date +"%y%m%d"`.log"
LOGFILE2="create_image`date +"%y%m%d"`.log.2"

if [[ -z "${OUTDIR}" ]]; then
  echo "Need to run this script with a path to output directory.  Like:  ${0}  /path/to/output/"
  exit 1
fi

# Actually create the image.  Our kickstart data should be in the same git repo as this script:
