Hi, > Hmm. Is there a HOWTO for setting up a 32-bit container? Containers > aren't something I've had the time to become familiar with so far.
systemd-nspawn manpage has a few examples in the examples section (and is worth reading anyway). For fedora it boils down to "yum/dnf --installroot=/dest/dir groupinstall core", possibly with --config $cfgfile where you list your repos in $cfgfile, especially when installing fedora on rhel so you don't want the host repos. Use "systemd-nspawn -D /dest/dir passwd" to set the root password, otherwise you can't login. Boot with "systemd-nspawn -bD /dest/dir". With --bind you can make host directories visible within the container. For debian there is debootstrap which you can use (is packaged for fedora and epel too). Alternatively you can fetch a cloud image and run that. HTH, Gerd
