Unattended deployment of an RPM-based guest
virt-install
is a command-line utility that can be used to create virtual machines. It comes preinstalled with Phyllome OS.
Deployment using a hosted kickstart file
- The following command will create a virtual machine with a 10G virtual disk and deploy an RPM-based operating system with a stripped-down GNOME desktop environment inside. Most settings can be modified after the installation.
Please verify the content of the kickstart script used to automate the installation. You may replace the kickstart script by a kickstart script of your choice. {.is-info}
- Copy the command below, open you favorite terminal, paste the content, and press enter.
virt-install \
--connect qemu:///system \
--os-variant detect=off \
--virt-type kvm \
--arch x86_64 \
--machine q35 \

--extra-args="inst.ks=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PhyllomeOS/phyllomeos/main/dishes/virtual-desktop.cfg"
Deployment using a local kickstart file
- Use the following
wget
command to fetch a standalone kickstart file made to deploy a stripped-down desktop system with GNOME Shell, and put it in the working directory
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PhyllomeOS/phyllomeos/main/dishes/virtual-desktop.cfg
Please verify the content of the script if you intent to use this virtual machine in production, for instance by using the following command
cat virtual-desktop.cfg
{.is-info}
- Deploy a stripped-down desktop based on GNOME Shell using the local kickstart file previously downloaded
