# Installation
|
|
|
|
`image-builder` packages are available in [Fedora](https://fedoraproject.org). You can also get a copy from other places listed here. After you have `image-builder` installed take a look at its [usage](./01-usage.md).
|
|
|
|
## Fedora
|
|
|
|
Install `image-builder` with the following command:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ sudo dnf install image-builder
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ sudo image-builder build minimal-raw
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## COPR
|
|
|
|
If you want to get a more recent version of `image-builder` you can enable the [COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/) repository, this provides builds from the `main` branch.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ sudo dnf copr enable @osbuild/image-builder
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ sudo dnf install image-builder
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ sudo image-builder build --distro fedora-41 minimal-raw
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Container
|
|
|
|
We build a container for the `x86_64` and `aarch64` architectures directly from our `main` branch. We need to run a privileged container due to the way filesystems work in Linux. The below command will build a Fedora 41 Minimal Raw disk image and put it into the mounted output directory.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ mkdir output
|
|
$ sudo podman run \
|
|
--privileged \
|
|
--rm \
|
|
-it \
|
|
-v ./output:/output \
|
|
ghcr.io/osbuild/image-builder-cli:latest \
|
|
--distro fedora-41 \
|
|
build minimal-raw
|
|
# ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Source
|
|
|
|
Another option, and this might be most useful while hacking on the source is to run directly from a source checkout.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ sudo dnf install go git-core osbuild osbuild-depsolve-dnf osbuild-ostree osbuild-lvm2 osbuild-luks2
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ git clone github.com/osbuild/image-builder-cli
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ cd image-builder-cli
|
|
$ go build ./cmd/image-builder build
|
|
# ...
|
|
$ sudo ./image-builder --distro fedora-41 minimal-raw
|
|
```
