NAME¶

bootc - Deploy and transactionally in-place with bootable container images

SYNOPSIS¶

bootc [-h|--help] [-V|--version] <subcommands>

DESCRIPTION¶

Deploy and transactionally in-place with bootable container images.

The `bootc` project currently uses ostree-containers as a backend to support a model of bootable container images. Once installed, whether directly via `bootc install` (executed as part of a container) or via another mechanism such as an OS installer tool, further updates can be pulled via e.g. `bootc upgrade`.

Changes in `/etc` and `/var` persist.
