Hi there! I recently read about MicroOS and meet the immutable idea to be a great way to have a clean and safer operating system. However, many cloud providers in my country don’t support network boots, so I have to use images that are available from these providers. As a result, I’m planning to create a script that can make Debian as similar as possible to MicroOS.
**my first question is, how can I do this? I need a roadmap to follow! ** and my second question is what is the main repository link for the MicroOS core project?
You’re correct – there ain’t no Roadmap – only the openSUSE Conference sessions: <https://events.opensuse.org/> – click on “Older Conferences” to view the sessions at the previous conferences.
@ njfamirm If your VPS provider provides a rescue instance you can boot your rescue instance, make a ramdisk, download the MicroOS ISO into the ramdisk, install qemu, run qemu, and forward a port via SSH tunnel. Use spice to access your install. I used to do this while installing SUSE on my VPS host.
Sorry for bumping an old thread - but here are my notes for installing an unsupported iso (e.g MicroOS) at a VPS Provider from a rescue CD.
If a VPS Provider has netboot.xyz as an option I usually boot an Alpine Linux image. The VPS needs enough RAM for your custom iso + whatever image you boot for the install (Alpine is probably the lightest)
