Project Discussion
1

Hello,

We are working on Imx8 NXP board and trying to port Fedora-IOT on the same.

We have extracted the Fedora-IOT rootfs from the raw image Fedora provides for Rpi3 board. We are able to up the NXP-imx8 board with Fedora-IoT rootfs.

However, we are unable to use the libostree as it throws the error for the same as below.
[root@localhost ~]# rpm-ostree status
error: This system was not booted via libostree; cannot operate

Could you please suggest how to integrate libostree over here?

Regards.

Are you doing something like chroot into the target rootfs? Or using a container tool like bwrap/systemd-nspawn -D/podman --root ?

If so, why? What is your goal?

Hi @walters,

Our goal is to port Fedora-IoT on imx8 board and to run various IoT demos on the same.

What is the role of this command? Also, we have not used this command, from where we should run this command?
