β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
okay so real talk: this one creates a custom live PXE boot config. that's it, that's the whole vibe. π
π OPTIONS π
--dest-ignition <path>β Ignition config fragment for dest sys. lowkey magical: it automatically runs the installer and merges the Ignition config you picked into the config for the destination system. no cap.--dest-device <path>β Install destination device. automatically runs the installer and installs to the destination device you named.
β οΈ bestie listen: the resulting boot media will overwrite the destination device without confirmation. no "are you sure", no takebacks. it's giving irreversible. π
--dest-console <spec>β Kernel and bootloader console for dest. automatically runs the installer and configures the kernel and bootloader console for the destination system. the argument uses the exact same syntax as the parameter to theconsole=kernel argument. iykyk.--dest-karg-append <arg>β Destination kernel argument to append. automatically runs the installer and adds the kernel argument you gave it to every single boot of the destination system. every one. iconic consistency. β¨--dest-karg-delete <arg>β Destination kernel argument to delete. automatically runs the installer and deletes the kernel argument you gave it from every single boot of the destination system. bye bestie π--network-keyfile <path>β NetworkManager keyfile for live & dest. sets up networking with the NetworkManager keyfile you specified. the network settings get applied in the live environment, including when Ignition is run. and if the installer is enabled through the other options, the network settings also get applied in the destination system β including when Ignition is run. π¦--network-nmstate <path>β Nmstate file for live & dest. sets up networking using NetworkManager keyfiles that were generated from the Nmstate files you specified. network settings get applied in the live environment, including when Ignition is run. and if the installer is enabled through the other options, the network settings also get applied in the destination system β including when Ignition is run. π¦--ignition-ca <path>β Ignition PEM CA bundle for live & dest. tells Ignition to trust some extra TLS certificate authorities, in PEM format. they'll be trusted by Ignition in the live environment, and β if the installer is enabled through the other options β in the destination system too. π€--pre-install <path>β Script to run before installation. if the installer runs at boot, this script runs before installation.
π¨ and if the script fails, the live environment stops at an emergency shell. so yeah, it's giving consequences.
--post-install <path>β Script to run after installation. if the installer runs at boot, this script runs after installation.
π¨ same energy: if the script fails, the live environment stops at an emergency shell.
--installer-config <path>β Installer config file. automatically runscoreos-installerand applies the installer config file you specified. and here's the tea: config files are applied in the order that they are specified. order matters bestie π«Ά--live-ignition <path>β Ignition config fragment for live env. merges the Ignition config you specified into the config for the live environment. π-o,--output <path>β Output file. where the good stuff goes. π-h,--helpβ print help (see a summary with-h). yes, there's a whole summary version, very demure, very mindful. π-V,--versionβ print version. π<path>β CoreOS live initramfs image. the main character of this whole operation, honestly. β
