Fedora IoT Bootc Images

As part of Fedora’s initiative towards bootable containers, you can now create Fedora IoT bootc images. These images use standard OCI/Docker containers as transport but contain all components needed to boot a Fedora IoT system. This allows you to ship updates to your Fedora IoT system using container images.

bootc is part of the standard Fedora IoT distribution. After setting up a Physical Device you can use the bootc tools to update the system.

Essentially, Fedora IoT bootc images retain all the functionality you’re used to in Fedora IoT, while leveraging the flexibility and ease of maintenance provided by bootc.

For more information, please check out the official bootc documentation, as well as the Fedora Bootc Base Images Git repository.
