Springdale LXD image

[Jérôme AVOND]

Hello,

Thanks to the " breathtaking " work of the LXC team https://github.com/lxc/

They made up a distrobuilder (https://github.com/lxc/distrobuilder)

Unfortunately, they keep maintaining only a CentOS image (despite the news...), and they doesn't take care of building an alternative,

My own search for an alternative brings me to Springdale Linux, this distro is - imho -

the only credible alternative to CentOS. You guys (and gals of courses) ROX to infinite and beyond ! :p

So I decided to check if it will be possible to create a LXD image for Springdale with this distrobuilder tool, #spoileralert I made it :D

So please check this out : https://github.com/lxc/distrobuilder/pull/435

You can try this first image I made : https://transfer.sh/Ta/image_Springdale.tgz

Please feel free to ask and tell !

Regards,

[Jérôme AVOND]
