The branch for “CentOS Stream 10 bootc” can be found here, while Stream 9 bootc is here.
An atomic system that doesnt require updates every few days is a sweet spot I imagine a ton of people want.
I am curious: in what state is this? Can it be tested already?
I find the communication around it pretty intransparent for outsiders and would love some updates!
And, can I add a bootc
tag? How are tags dealt with in this category? Just SIGs?

I would be very interested in an atomic CentOS.
Ping. I saw some people use bootc Fedora.
Some time ago I tried to rebase from Fedora IoT or something slim, to CentOS Stream 9 bootc.
That resulted in a black screen.
I see how bootc is currently less efficient than rpm-ostree, as it downloads OCI container chunks, that are bigger than OSTree diffs.
But that wouldnt matter that much on CentOS Stream, as it is stable.
I see this Doc, supposedly moved twice but leading to a 404
It uses the standard CentOS Anaconda installer, with a custom Kickstart file to deploy the image.
I will experiment with that in a VM.

It’s ready. Base images :: Fedora Docs
You can even pull it and install it.

@admins could you add a bootc tag here? I dont have the permissions for some reason
Interesting, and deployment works by building an anaconda ISO locally? I already built a qcow2 image which worked fine.
