Hi,
Is there any install ISO (not USB) image for x86, or plan for provide? many VPS requires ISO image to install, and it is freindly for vitrual machine such as VirtualBox and QEMU.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
Here is the method that I could run umbrelOS USB installer on VirtualBOX.
losetup -P /dev/loop0 umbrelos-amd64-usb-installer.img
mount /dev/loop0p2 /mnt
mksquashfs /mnt squashfs.img
I think MBR bootloader support is required. And umbrelOS is not suitable for VPS. I tried and learned that the OS is strongly-aimed for home server.
Sorry, something went wrong.
Can you share the exact steps you took (down to individual commands), so I can make a script out of this?
I may be able to make a script from the information you already provided
here is my shell script to build ISO image. (extension is .txt but actually .sh)
make_iso.txt
But I think mounting un-xz'ed installer image as virtual hard disk is no problem and easy solution for EFI-capable virtual machine. It is special case to create ISO image.
Thank you. I'll try to make it into a dockerfile
I had a hell to install it on x86 as well. Managed to do by changing the Virtual Machine BIOS to UEFI and disabling Secure Boot inside the VM Bios. A traditional pre built ISO could make this much simpler really. Also is the EFI-capable something that must exist in this context ?
Is this ISO not compatible with VM? I am struggling with both VirtualBox and VMWare, "Operating System not found"...
Released ISO (and umbrelOS itself) is for UEFI system only. No BIOS system supported. Please check "Enable EFI" at VirtualBox' System Settings -> Mainboard tab. I don't know about VMware.
Seems the recent changes on instalation method are making things more dificult to several people. Can't simply another ISO which doesn't depend on UEFI be built to make things easier for people that don't necessarily are using Raspberry Pi.
Or ever better return the previous instalation method that allows to install in on the top of an OS ans allow people to have their own OS customizations with further security where it apllies ?
