This project is a CentOS Stream Remix (like a Fedora Remix) and aims to offer a complete system for multipurpose usage with localization support. You can build a live image and try the software, and then install it in your PC if you want. Other goals of this remix are:

• common extra-repos
• multimedia apps
• office automation support (printers and scanners)
• and more...

CentOS Stream is an LTS operating system which offers sofware for many purposes. It is flexible enough to get a custom version by using the installer (see here for more details). The build process can be described through Kickstart files and can be modified to get new variants.

See a detailed description of how to build the live media. First, install Lorax to create the virtual environment:

# dnf install lorax-lmc-virt

Prepare the target directory for build results:

# mkdir /results

# chmod ugo+rwx /results

Create a bootable .iso for building environment:

# lorax --product='CentOS Stream' --version=<version> --release=<version> --nomacboot \
 --source='http://mirror.centos.org/centos/<version>-stream/AppStream/x86_64/os/' \
 --source='http://mirror.centos.org/centos/<version>-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/' \
 --logfile=/results/lorax-centos-<version>/lorax.log /results/lorax-centos-<version>

Install live media tools:

# dnf install pykickstart

Choose a version (eg: KDE workstation with italian support) and then create a single Kickstart file from the base code:

$ ksflatten --config /<source-path>/kickstarts/<version>/l10n/kde-workstation-it_IT.ks \
 --output /results/centos-<version>-kde-workstation.ks

Then you can build the .iso image using the kickstart just obtained:

# livemedia-creator --nomacboot --make-iso --project='CentOS Stream' --releasever=<version> \
 --tmp=/results --logfile=/results/lmc-logs/livemedia.log \
 --iso=/results/lorax-centos-<version>/images/boot.iso \
 --ks=/results/centos-<version>-kde-workstation.ks

You can create a bootable USB/SD device using the .iso image:

# dd if=/results/lmc-work-<code>/images/boot.iso of=/dev/sd[X]

The Anaconda installer does not remove itself after installation. You can remove it to get space by running this command:

# dnf remove anaconda\*

Questo è un Remix di CentOS Stream (analogo ad un Remix di Fedora) con il supporto in italiano per lingua e tastiera. Nell'immagine ISO che si ottiene sono già installati i pacchetti e le configurazioni per il funzionamento in italiano delle varie applicazioni (come l'ambiente grafico, la suite LibreOffice etc). Nel sistema sono presenti anche:

• repositori extra di uso comune
• supporto per le applicazioni multimediali
• supporto per l'ufficio (stampanti e scanner)
• e altre funzionalità ancora...

Il programma di installazione Anaconda non rimuove se stesso dopo l'installazione. E' possibile rimuoverlo per recuperare spazio utilizzando il seguente comando:

# dnf remove anaconda\*

All notable changes to this project will be documented in the CHANGELOG.md file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.
