We do have Fedora CoreOS, which may or may not fit your use case (i.e. run software in containers, automatic updates, rpm-ostree as the update mechanism), which can re-provision the root filesystem on first boot and does provide images for various clouds: - https://fedoraproject.org/coreos/download?stream=stable - https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/storage/#_reconfiguring_the_root_filesystem This may or may not be an option for you, but figured I'd mention. > > Our images are now defined here: > https://pagure.io/fedora-kiwi-descriptions/blob/rawhide/f/teams/cloud/cloud.xml > > If you want to use something else, you'd want to have your own version > of the definitions and modify that file to use the filesystem of your > choice. > > Is there a particular reason you want to use ext4 or xfs for your > rootfs?
