|
|
|
qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b base.img -F qcow2 after_arch_install.img
|
|
|
|
qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b after_arch_install.img -F qcow2 after_ssh_init.img
|
|
|
|
qemu-img create -f qcow2 -b after_ssh_init.img -F qcow2 ready_for_ansible.img
|

|
## Steps to install
|
|
|
|
- find a new name for the device eg. blackjack
|
|
- install with `archinstall` to initialize the computer
|
|
- use the profiles defined in `archinstall_configs`
|
|
- connect to the internet
|
|
- enable an ssh server to access it from the ansible runner host
|
|
- on the host, generate a private ssh key
|
|
- add the public key on the target host
|
|
- create a target directory in `target` directory
|
|
- configure `vars.yaml`, see example vars file
|
|
- create on the host, the private ssh key that will be installed on target
|
|
- add this sshkey to your forge that host your dots file, eg. forge.lefuturiste.fr
|
|
|
|
### Generate a unprotected default ssh key
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "mbess@blackjack"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
no passphrase
|
|
|
|
> ECDSA-SK, Ed25519 and Ed25519-SK keys have a fixed length and the -b flag will be ignored.
|
|
|
|
### Configure ~/.ssh/config
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# set as default
|
|
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/unprotected_ed25519

## Known issues

You need to keep updated the known hosts in your profiles to not have this info erased each time you play the ansible book.
