Rick, I've been following your work with rebar3 and considering adapting it into distillery (https://github.com/bitwalker/distillery). I'd love to be able to generate an image (AMI, or whatever format) that is the combination of OSv, Elixir, BEAM, etc. in a single easy step. Thanks for digging

[osv-dev] Another filesystem, maybe ext2/3/4?

2021-10-12 Thread Gregory Burd
