This patch fixes inconsistent calculations of the rootfs size. For `du` and `df`, `-B 1MB` is different from `-BM`. The former is the power of 1000, and the latter is the power of 1024. So comparing them doesn't make sense. The bug may result in a larger image than needed. Fixes: #2560 Signed-off-by: Yujia Qiao <rapiz3142@gmail.com>
Kata Containers image generation
A Kata Containers disk image is generated using the image_builder.sh
script.
This uses a rootfs directory created by the rootfs-builder/rootfs.sh
script.
Creating a guest OS image
To create a guest OS image run:
$ sudo ./image_builder.sh path/to/rootfs
Where path/to/rootfs
is the directory populated by rootfs.sh
.
Note
: If you are building an image from an Alpine rootfs, see the important note here.
Further information
For more information about usage (including how to adjust the size of the image), run:
$ ./image_builder.sh -h
