Add a bash profile that tells systemd to not use a pager for output.
|
|
|
Add a systemd dropin to override the default `serial-getty@ttyS0.service`.
|
|
|
And check on `zincati.service`, which communicates with our update server and tells `rpm-ostree` when to do an update and to what version to update to:
|
|
|
And finally, of course we can use the `podman` (or `docker`) command to inspect the current state of containers on the system:

Depending on your version of `virt-install`, you may not be able to use `--os-variant=fedora-coreos-stable` and will get an error. In this case, you should pick an older Fedora variant (`--os-variant=fedora31` for example). You can find the variants that are supported by you current version of `virt-install` with `osinfo-query os | grep '^\s*fedora'`.
