UniFi OS Server installs just fine on Fedora CoreOS when doing "rpm-ostree usroverlay" before starting the installer.

This will allow it to create symlinks in /usr/bin which are not needed and don't need to be persisted. Without temporarily enabling usroverlay the installer will leave UniFi OS Server in a broken state.

Coreos is a great match for UniFi OS because the base system will upgrade automatically while application upgrades are managed by UniFi.

#UniFi #fcos #fedora #coreos

Aaaand it won't. Of course it wants to write in places where it's not even sane to write to on a mutable OS.

#UniFi #fcos #fedora #coreos

"UniFi OS Server" is the successor to #UniFi Network Application.

Is actually not a OS but supposedly a collection of podman containers and scripts that fuck around in the base OS as it pleases. 👀

Will this work in a dedicated #fcos VM? I'll find out.

Fedora CoreOS Release Notes

See the major changes and components version for latest Fedora CoreOS releases.

Major learning curve to use #fedora #coreos is how to create ignition file. #FCOS installation use that for installation configuration. There's no menu or wizard like other #linux distros.

Why? Because one of major goal of #FCOS is to enable easy mass deployment of similar configuration.

After you learn and solved that problem, remaining else is just systemd and #podman #quadlet (most #fcos deployment is to run containerized applications)

@zrail I've managed some #fedora #coreos to run dozens of #podman container. Works nicely.

I can depend zincati to auto-update os, and podman-auto-update systemd service to update container isafely. #fcos update is atomic update.

No need to doing manual major distro upgrade because zincati take care of that.

Yes, u should monitor memory usage. You can run #promotheus & grafana container to monitor it. Also there is prometheus-podman-exporter to monitor podman container with prometheus easily.

@aku dibilang distro-hopping jg gak om.. itu2 aja kan.. kalo skrg ya intinya workstation #fedora, server ya #rhel clone kayak #almalinux atau #rockylinux, kombinasi dikit sama #fcos (fedora coreos). Ada juga opensuse tumbleweed. Tp itu semua kan bisa dibilang satu aliran

I figured out how to make a Fedora CoreOS template for XCP-ng that supports unattended installs by supplying an ignition file through Xen Orchestra's cloud config templates!

Fedora CoreOS XCP-ng XO Template - LetheData

Create a Fedora CoreOS template for Xen Orchestra with ignition support through cloud config templates.

Now, #fedora is still my daily OS on my workstation (PC and laptop). On my servers, #centos had been my primary server distro, but changed to #rockylinux and #almalinux because #redhat policy changes.

There are some of my servers also use fedora #coreos aka #fcos and i love it.

Also touch #ubuntu or #debian, but only because some of my company's customer use that on their servers.

Also touch debian because it is base distro of #proxmox VE and #raspberry #pi #raspbian.

@Wiulinu #fcos provides safe atomic and automatic updates, that's why I recommended it
