Fedora Asahi Remix KIWI descriptions

This contains the KIWI descriptions for building the Fedora Asahi Remix.

Spin variants

  • Server (image type: oem, image profiles: Server)
  • Workstation GNOME (image type: oem, image profiles: Workstation-GNOME)
  • Workstation KDE (image type: oem, image profiles: Workstation-KDE)

Spin build quickstart

Pre-requisites for non-AArch64 hosts

On non-AArch64 hosts, install qemu-user-static and restart the binfmt service:

$ sudo dnf --assumeyes install qemu-user-static
$ sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt.service

Note that building non-aarch64 is untested and likely to expose bugs.

Podman

The instructions below will use the podman command. Only Podman is supported for this workflow.

First, pull down the container of the required environment (Fedora Linux 36 or higher works). We'll use Fedora Linux 37.

$ sudo podman pull registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:37-aarch64

Assuming you're in the root directory of the Git checkout, set up the container:

$ sudo podman run --privileged --rm -it -v $PWD:/code:z -w /code registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:37-aarch64 /bin/bash

Once in the container environment, set up your development environment and run the image build (substitute <image_type> and <image_profile> for the appropriate settings):

# Install kiwi
[]$ dnf --assumeyes install kiwi
# Run the image build
[]$ kiwi-ng --type=<image_type> --profile=<image_profile> --color-output system build --description ./ --target-dir ./outdir

For example, to build the --profile=Workstation-GNOME profile:

[]$ kiwi-ng --debug --type=oem --profile=Workstation-GNOME --color-output system build --description ./ --target-dir ./outdir

We also provide a script to generate an Asahi Installer package from the raw image that kiwi produces:

# Install prerequsites
[]$ dnf --assumeyes install fatcat gawk util-linux zip
# Build the package
[]$ ./make-asahi-installer-package.sh outdir/Fedora-Asahi-Remix.aarch64-0.0.0.raw package.zip
