 # Kickstart to build Rocky 8 image for Raspberry Pi 4 hardware (aarch64)

+# (it is very similar to how the other kickstarts are built, but aarch64 must be used, and the livemedia appliance option)

+# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --init
+# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --install lorax-lmc-novirt vim pykickstart git
+# sudo setenforce 0
+# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --shell --isolation=simple --enable-network
+#
+# Inside the shell:
+# git clone https://github.com/rocky-linux/kickstarts
+# git checkout r8
+# cd kickstarts/altarch

+# Finally, run the image creation:
