How to find previous images earlier than rpm-ostree rollback or the boot screen allow you to access

Unfortunately rpm-ostree doesn’t parse version strings and associate them with commits. I think there is an RFE bug for that.

You’ll want something like this:

[dustymabe@hattop ~]$ sudo ostree pull fedora:fedora/29/x86_64/silverblue --commit-metadata-only --depth=5
