B2Docker Fedora Remix

A fast moving, minimized operating system acting as a Docker host.

Features

• Tracking latest Docker builds and testing
• Built using Fedora RPM technology on the server side for a known base, but with OSTree on the client side for fully atomic upgrades.
• A familiar Unix environment, with a writable etc
• The ability to choose between multiple variant trees, with additional RPM content.

Installation (Prepared VMs)

The latest release is 20140131.0. You can download preinstalled virtual machine disk images here

Vagrant: (Coming Soon)

Inside the system, use ostree admin upgrade to download the latest code, and then reboot. Upgrades are GPG signed for security.

Installation (Inside existing Fedora/EL 7 Beta)

A unique ability of OSTree is to safely parallel install operating systems into the new /ostree directory. This will on at least Fedora 20, or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Beta. First, ensure you have OSTree 2014.1 or newer.

    yum install ostree
    ostree admin os-init fb2docker
    ostree remote add --set=gpg-verify=false fb2docker http://FIXMESERVER/repo
    ostree pull fb2docker fb2docker/20/x86_64/buildmaster/core/docker
    ostree admin deploy --os=fb2docker fb2docker:fb2docker/20/x86_64/buildmaster/core/docker
    cp /etc/fstab /ostree/deploy/fb2docker/current/etc
