Kickstart files and scripts for building minimal VM images for OpenStack
The images created will have the following features:
- minimal installs excluding the common 'base' groups
- timezone is UTC
- single root filesystem, grows to size of disk on first boot
- latest cloud-init is installed
- rng-tools is loaded to take advantage of host virt entropy if available
- build timestamp in /etc/.build
- create image : oz-install -d3 -a centos-6-x86_64.ks -u centos-6-x86_64.tdl -x centos64-libvirt.xml
-
oz-install -d3 -u centos-7-x86_64.tdl -x centos-7-libvirt.xml - open centos64-libvirt.xml to see where the image has been created
- run : virt-sysprep -a centos-6-x86_64.dsk on your image after it's created
- convert .dsk to .qcow2 : qemu-img convert -f raw -O qcow2 centos-6-x86_64.dsk centos-6-x86_64.qcow2
- OpenStack Glance import : glance image-create --name="CentOS 6.4 Final" --disk-format=qcow2 --container-format=bare < centos-6-x86_64.qcow2
- login name is 'fedora'
- EPEL repo is enabled
- login name is 'centos'
- postfix is installed (prereq for cronie) but not enabled
- if you use image for openstack login as root with your private key
