Hi,
Is there any chance to fetch IncusOS from the incus images repository? And is there such a thought?
Regards.
There are a few options to get IncusOS:
- Online image customizer
Easiest but since each download is custom, it can’t use the mirrors. - Using the
flasher-toolfrom the IncusOS repository
Will effectively do what the image customizer does, but locally. You need to build or download the flasher-tool binary yourself though. - Direct download an ISO and use a separate seed media
We’ve also added support for using a pristine image (.iso or .img from the image server) and instead putting the seed files (.yaml) on a separate media. Doing this requires the use of a separate GPT partitioned USB stick with a vfat partition using GPT label “SEED_DATA” containing the seed files.
One thing that’s worth noting about the online image customizer is that it looks like you’re downloading 3.2GB of data from it, but you’re really not. It uses your browser’s built-in gzip support to stream a compressed image which is decompressed in your browser, so the actual download size is closer to the compressed size of 550MB.
