[BlueOnyx:24757] Re: OpenVZ 7: AlmaLinux OS template cache

[Michael Stauber]

Hi all,

We just released an unofficial "AlmaLinux 8.3 beta 1" OS template cache
for OpenVZ 7 and Aventurin{e} 6109R.

If you set up a CT using this OS template cache, it'll connect to the
AlmaLinux beta repositories to install a CT with a minimal "AlmaLinux
8.3 beta 1". This doesn't include BlueOnyx 5210R.

Aventurin{e} 6109R users can simply install the OS template cache this way:

yum install almalinux-8-x86_64-ez

OpenVZ 7 users w/o Aventurin{e} can grab the RPM here:

http://updates.aventurin.net/pub/Aventurin/6109R/EL7/aventurin/x86_64/RPMS/almalinux-8-x86_64-ez-1.0.0-1BX01.vl7.noarch.rpm

Caveat emptor: This is an unofficially built installer of an OS that's
currently in beta. Use it to give AlmaLinux a quick spin and test ride.
I cannot guarantee that CTs set up with this OS template cache will
continue to YUM/DNF update once AlmaLinux leaves beta.
