container-create-debootstrap
============================
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Create a basic Debian based container with debootstrap or mmdebstrap
--------------------------------------------------------------------
:manual section: 1
:manual group: Open Infrastructure
Synopsis
========
| **container create -s debootstrap** ['OPTIONS']
| **cnt cr -s debootstrap** ['OPTIONS']
| **container create -s mmdebstrap** ['OPTIONS']
| **cnt cr -s mmdebstrap** ['OPTIONS']
Description
===========
The debootstrap container creation script uses debootstrap(8) or mmdebstrap(1)
to create a Debian based container.
This script creates a pure Debian system with three modificiations:
* apt cache of packages downloaded during debootstrap is cleaned
* hostname is set (container name) in /etc/hostname
* root password is set (user specified or 16 random characters)
Options
=======
The following script options are available:
-n, --name='NAME':
Specify container name.
-a, --architecture='ARCHITECTURE':
Specify the Debian architecture, defaults to the host systems architecture.
-d, --distribution='DISTRIBUTION':
Specify the Debian distribution, defaults to 'bullseye'.
-m, --mirror='MIRROR':
Specify the Debian mirror, defaults to 'https://deb.debian.org/debian'.
-p, --root-password='PASSWORD':
Specify the root password, defaults to a random 16 character password.
Examples
========
Create a Debian 11 (bullseye) based container with same architecture as the host
system using debootstrap:
sudo container create -s debootstrap -n bullseye.example.net
Create a Debian 11 (bullseye) based container with different architecture as the
host system using mmdebstrap:
sudo container create -s mmdebstrap -n bullseye-i386.example.net -- -a i386
