Fedora CoreOS template for proxmox with cloudinit support
- vmsetup.sh
TEMPLATE_VMID="1000" # Template Proxmox VMID
TEMPLATE_VMSTORAGE="thin-ssd" # Proxmox storage
SNIPPET_STORAGE="local" # Snippets storage for hook and ignition file
VMDISK_OPTIONS=",discard=on" # Add options to vmdisk
- fcos-base-tmplt.yaml
The ignition file provided is only a working basis. For a more advanced configuration go to https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/
it contains :
- Correct fstrim service with no fstab file
- Install qemu-guest-agent on first boot
- Install Geco-iT CloudInit wrapper
- Raise console message logging level from DEBUG (7) to WARNING (4)
- Add Geco-iT motd/issue

Convert VM 900 in proxmox vm template... [done]
Before starting an FCOS VM, we create an ignition file by merging the data from the cloudinit and the fcos-base-tmplt.yaml file. Then we modify the configuration of the vm to add the loading of the ignition file and we reset the start of the vm.
During the first boot the vm will install qemu-agent and will restart. Warning, for that the network must be operational
Only these parameters are supported by our cloudinit wrapper:
- User (only one) default = admin
- Passwd
- DNS domain
- DNS Servers
- SSH public key
- IP Configuration (ipv4 only)
The settings are applied at boot
