How to create a OS-in-container tutorial updated
There has been some discussion recently on the forum. I think it
was a Puppy-Ubuntu variant, that was converted to a EasyOS-compatible
SFS, ready to be installed as a container, as per steps explained in
this tutorial:
https://easyos.org/dev/how-to-run-a-linux-distribution-in-a-container.html
Except, as the person was unable to upload the SFS to my ibiblio repository, they didn't know how to just test it locally.
Yes, the tutorial was unclear on that point, so I have added explanation about local testing.
I received an email, someone wanted to convert the 'Tails'
distribution to run in a container. I have added clarification to the
tutorial that currently only Puppy-derivatives are supported.
Also, Tails is a special secure operating system, and is unlikely to
"play nice" in an EasyOS container. The container has its own security
restrictions, which may conflict with or neutralize those of Tails.
Tails will also have its own special kernel, whereas in a container it
will be using the EasyOS kernel.
