Getting started with Remixes?
by Andreas Hartmann
Hello everyone,
I'm Andreas and currently working with a group of volunteers on making
Fedora run on handheld devices, mainly the Pine64 PinePhone. Currently
we have a bootable image (and some people already daily-drive it), but
it is made entirely by hand (and some shell-scripts).
Today I searched the wiki on guidelines to "implement" Anaconda and
found out that it's probably easiest for the moment if we label our
effort a Remix of Fedora.
Currently I'm looking for guidance on how to create Remixes. I have
read through the Anaconda docs and searched the wiki already. So far I
can tell that Anaconda works based on images that it installs to a
host. Now I wonder how to create the images, because the Wiki mentions
a plethora of tools for the job: livecd-tools, pungi, livemedia-creator
and lorax. I also found a lot of mentions of kickstart everywhere...
Could someone kindly recommend which of these tools to further look
into? Or is there something like an example step-by-step guide that I
can follow to get a grasp of how to create the images or even a whole
Remix (possibly including how to fulfill legal requirements around
fedora-logos etc.)?
I've never done anything like this before, and I'm pretty new to
contributing to Fedora in general. However I'd really like it if we
could produce a handheld-Remix with an installer and such.
I'm thankful for any help or advice!
All the best,
Andreas
