Hi,

Below is the meeting minutes for OS Distro & Multi-OS meeting of Oct 4th:

Oct 4, 2023

Attendees: Charles Short, Davlet, Elaine, Juanita, Mark A.

1.2 Log into the git before download the source.
How to pass the credential through the tooling layer when log into git repo.
workaround: currently use repo sync outside of the containers.
AI: Scott to write up a feature request for the tool - file a request in Story Board.
Created: https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2010777, (create a jira for it)
1.3 Pre-patch ISO:
The Prepatched ISO will contain an ostree-repo with a ‘single’ commit containing the final state of the rootfs after all the patches have been applied
i.e. note that for size reasons, we should not have a commit for each patch and metadata for all the patches that have been applied.
In summary, the GA ISO and Prepatched ISOs will generally be the same in that they both have an ostree-repo with a single ostree-commit, the prepatched iso
will have the GA content + all patches and will use apt-ostree (Charles Short).
Open Questions: How to patch grub and other files that are not managed by ostree
A: this is covered in the upstream generic OSTree documentation. OSTree can cover the /boot directory when needed.

2. ARM Support

3. 3. StarlingX 8.0

Next Meeting: Oct 18, 2023
