yum-minimal¶
Base element for creating minimal yum-based images.
This element is incomplete by itself, you’ll want to use the centos-minimal or fedora-minimal elements to get an actual base image.
Use of this element will require ‘yum’ and ‘yum-utils’ to be installed on Ubuntu and Debian. Nothing additional is needed on Fedora or CentOS.
If you wish to have DHCP networking setup for eth0 & eth1 via /etc/sysconfig/network-config scripts/ifcfg-eth[0|1], set the environment variable DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_CREATE_INTERFACES to 1.
If you wish to build from specific mirrors, set
DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_BOOTSTRAP_REPOS
to a directory with the .repo
files to use during bootstrap and build. The repo files should be
named with a prefix dib-mirror-
and will be removed from the final
image.
If you wish to include extra repositories, set DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_EXTRA_REPOS
to a directory with the .repo
files. The repo files will not be removed
from the final image.
If you are bootstrapping a custom or unsupported OS, and need to install
additional packages to setup the base chroot, set
DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_BOOTSTRAP_PACKAGES
to the list of additional packages to
install.
