[pve-devel] PVE Minimal Debian Appliance

[c.monty at web.de]

It is clear that the tarball resulting from Bitname's makefile is
running on Docker only.
Therefore I was asking if you know a way to migrate this tarball to LXC
or to verify if this makefile can be "ported" to generate an LXC appliance.
 
I also understand that the PVE shipped Debian Appliance contains
packages that are essential and should not be removed.
However, the same requisite is valid for Minideb Docker container, and
this is running with additional packages if required by the application.
 
My intention is to deploy single applications, e.g. Radicale
(Open-Source CalDAV and CardDAV Server) on a single LXC with a minimal
footprint.
This is feasible with Alpine Linux Appliance, and it's not clear why it
should not work with Debian.

BTW, the Bitname Makefile you refer provides a tarball for running
Docker Containers, not LXC containers.

See
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/docker-support-in-proxmox.27474/page-5#post-188828
for the relation between these.

Concerning the Debian tarballs we distribute, the only hardware related
stuff we ship is hwclock, which comes from the package util-linux, which
is mandatory for any Debian based system.
