Use a Gentoo cloud image as the baseline for built disk images. The images are
|
|
located in profile specific sub directories:
|
|
|
|
http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/autobuilds/
|
|
|
|
As of this writing, only x86_64 images are available.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
* There are very frequently new automated builds that include changes that
|
|
happen during the product maintenance. The download directories contain an
|
|
unversioned name and a versioned name. The unversioned name will always
|
|
point to the latest image, but will frequently change its content. The
|
|
versioned one will never change content, but will frequently be deleted and
|
|
replaced by a newer build with a higher version-release number.
|
|
|
|
* In order to run the package-installs element you will need to make sure
|
|
`dev-python/pyyaml` is installed on the host.
|
|
|
|
* In order to run the vm element you will need to make sure `sys-block/parted`
|
|
is installed on the host.
|
|
|
|
* Other profiles can be used by exporting GENTOO_PROFILE with a valid profile.
|
|
A list of valid profiles follows:
|
|
|
|
default/linux/amd64/13.0
|
|
default/linux/amd64/13.0/no-multilib
|
|
hardened/linux/amd64
