Hi,
Alpine Linux is a distribution for secure light weight
servers/firewalls, based on uclibc/busybox, built using Gentoo
framework.
Attatched is initpre and initpost scripts to allow easy installation of
Alpine Linux guests. It is done in seconds. Create directory
distributions/alpine and save the attatched files there.
To set up a guest:
wget http://dev.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v1.7/base.tar.bz2
vserver alpine-guest build \
--context 1001 \
--interface eth0:<ipaddr>/<mask> \
--hostname alpine-guest -m template -- \
-t base.tar.bz2 \
-d alpine
base.tar.bz2 is 700-800 KB and the alpine guest is 2.5MB.
To list available packages, log in and:
export APK_PATH=http://dev.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v1.7/apks
apk_fetch -l
To install a package:
apk_add <package>
It would be nice if next release of util-vserver could include support
for Alpine.
Thanks!
