CoreOS Installation¶
A mirror should be setup firstly before installation. For CoreOS, there is only one way to setup mirror currently.
- Local ISO mirror: Download CoreOS ISO image, mount ISO image in a local server as the repository, http service for this repository is provided so that a node could access without proxy.
mkdir ~/iso && cd !/iso
# Download iso file
wget https://stable.release.core-os.net/amd64-usr/current/coreos_production_iso_image.iso
# Create mirror folder
mkdir -p /var/mirrors/coreos
# Replace {on-http-dir} with your own
mkdir -p {on-http-dir}/static/http/mirrors
# Mount iso
sudo mount coreos_production_iso_image.iso /var/mirrors/coreos
# Replace {on-http-dir} with your own
sudo ln -s /var/mirrors/coreos {on-http-dir}/static/http/mirrors/
