Some questions about the new (wip) generic kickstarts

[markVnl]

In the buildscript, does --cache /root/cache work if one runs as a privileged user with sudo?

What about just "cat" the little rootsf-expand script in /root/bin or /usr/local/bin?

Is this correct : echo no chroot selected ?

then just a few habits of my:

• always include nano in the package list (rpi users are a kind of used to that..)
• personally I find it incomprehensible the el8 core pulls in nearly 400 packages and bash-completion is not among them.
• would repeat myself by giving my opinion on the swap partition

Forgot to say I'm happy this work is done!

BTW are you familiar with armbian, I like their approach offirst boot / setting up a user;
it done in a script with tty overrides so nomatter how you login (serial, ssh. regular console) you always start there .

It should, since it is handled by appliance-creator

Yeap, that's coming up "soon"

That looks like leftover from debug, I'll remove it

  I can try to add those too
• would repeat myself by giving my opinion on the swap partition

I'm planning on doing this at a later time, I'd like to get zram into epel, then I'll be able to remove swap without feeling guilty

I haven't used armbian a lot, other than to compare a few things, but I'm open to suggestions for improvements ;)
