CentOS image missing some packages to boot successfully about distrobuilder HOT 7 CLOSED

https://github.com/lxc/lxc-ci/blob/master/images/centos.yaml

That's what we use for the official images. @monstermunchkin may want to tweak the examples a bit.

from distrobuilder.

Yes, I can tweak the example and fix networking in the container.

I don't have access to a CentOS 7.5 image, but a CentOS 7.6 image boots perfectly without having to change anything.

Hi,

Stéphane, thank you very much for that link. Yes, this file looks a way better than the default one. I will test it, if it is working for me for CentOS 7.5.

Thomas, which centos.yaml file have you used for CentOS 7.6? The one from distrobuilder or the one from Stéphanes link?

from distrobuilder.

I used the CentOS example we provide, but added systemd to the package list. You're right, that it doesn't boot without it. I'll fix that.

Using the yaml file we use for our official images, everything works. It boots and provides networking.

I will also update our example to make networking work out of the box.

Hi Thomas,

thank you very much!

Perhaps you can help me with one more issue I have?
I want to inject our own CentOS repository before the packages will be installed in yaml file or packages should be used from CD-Rom, but it should not be installed from internet repo.
I have tried with trigger pre-packages, but this is not available.

Is there a possibility to do this?

from distrobuilder.

Yes, there is a kind of pre-packages trigger called post-unpack. Perhaps that's what you're looking for.
