What exactly do we mean by lightweight?
What exactly do we mean by bootstrapping?
It is a wrapper around "yum --installroot <dir> install", but you should end with a system that boots, root can log in and yum is available. It can work with USB devices (flash, harddisk), LVs, LUNs from SAN, etc, generally anything you can mount on a running system.
Like Mock?
yes, it's inspired by mock, only the target is a standalone system
So why can't you just use mock? Or, for that matter kickstart?
But AFAIK mock can't create fstab (required by mkinitrd) or reset the password for root.
Can I run a kickstart install on my workstation (while doing regular work there) to install a system on a new device that will be then pulled out and used somewhere else?
