aurora-bootc
kind: vm entity that pairs with the /ov-foundation:aurora container image. ov vm build aurora-bootc runs bootc install to-disk against the aurora image to produce a bootable qcow2/raw disk.
Composition authority: /ov-foundation:aurora. Layer stack, base image, tests, and OCI labels all live there. This skill is a pointer; it only documents the VM-specific delta (disk_size / ram / cpus).
VmSpec (from vms.yml)
vms:
aurora-bootc:
source:
kind: bootc
image: aurora
disk_size: 80 GiB
ram: 12G
cpus: 4
Resource sizing rationale
| Setting | Value | Rationale | |---|---|---| | Disk size | 80 GiB | Aurora DX ships full KDE + NVIDIA drivers + toolchain; baseline image footprint is ~30 GiB uncompressed | | RAM | 12G | KDE desktop + NVIDIA stack + ov toolchain working set | | CPUs | 4 | Standard workstation-class dev VM allocation |
Firmware, machine, network, and SSH settings fall back to VmSpec defaults (see /ov-vms:vms). Override locally in vms.yml if the paired image changes its init system or boot requirements.
Build + run
# Enable aurora in image.yml first (disabled by default)
ov image build aurora # container image must exist before the VM disk install step
ov vm build aurora-bootc
ov vm create aurora-bootc
ov vm start aurora-bootc
ov vm ssh aurora-bootc
See /ov-advanced:vm "Known bootc-VM caveats" for the rootful storage split (engine.rootful=sudo needs sudo podman load of the saved tarball to reach root's storage) and the nested-container --transport containers-storage pattern.
