Documentation on creating local (libvirt) VMs using cloud-init

Open kastl-ars opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

Do you think Clear Linux documentation needs a new document? Please describe.

As a user, I would like to be able to deploy ClearLinux using libvirt, but with automatic configuration via e.g. cloud-init. I found that ClearLinux uses its own ucd implementation. But apparently it is not included in the kvm image.

I found a reference to a cloudguest image, that is not linked on the downloads page.

The existing documentation for virt-manager uses the ISO and runs the installer.

I'll see if the cloudguest image contains cloud-init and if this works. If not, at least a hint on cloud-init would be nice.

Should the new document be a guide, a reference, or a tutorial?

It should be similar to the existing pages in the getting-started section.

Describe or provide examples of similar documents, if possible, from other web sites existing pages in the getting-started section
