History

Andreas Florath 3636b40f74 Introduce manual setting of DIB_INIT_SYSTEM The current implementation evauates the dib-init-system script too early. Also it looks that there is no simple way of getting the info about the init system automatically: another element can install (later on) a different init system. Therefore the only reliable way of setting this is manual. Change-Id: I6e9ffa1bdb3154f488f4fd335b197699b86aacd4 Signed-off-by: Andreas Florath <andreas@florath.net>		2019-11-21 12:38:15 +11:00

=============
redhat-common
=============
Image installation steps common to RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora.

Requirements:

If used to build an image form a cloud image compress with xz
(the default in centos), this element uses "unxz" to decompress
the image. Depending on your distro you may need to install either
the xz or xz-utils package.

Environment Variables
---------------------

DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE
  :Required: No
  :Default: None
  :Description: Use the local path of a qcow2 cloud image. This is useful in
   that you can use a customized or previously built cloud image from
   diskimage-builder as input. The cloud image does not have to have been built
   by diskimage-builder. It should be a full disk image, not just a filesystem
   image.
  :Example: ``DIB_LOCAL_IMAGE=rhel-guest-image-7.1-20150224.0.x86_64.qcow2``

DIB_DISABLE_KERNEL_CLEANUP
  :Required: No
  :Default: 0
  :Description: Specify if kernel needs to be cleaned up or not. When set to
   true, the bits that cleanup old kernels will not be executed.
  :Example: DIB_DISABLE_KERNEL_CLEANUP=1
