LXD Alpine Linux image builder

This script provides a way to create Alpine Linux images for their use with LXD. It's based off the LXC templates.

The image will be built just by installing the alpine-base meta-package. Networking and syslog are enabled by default.

Usage

In order to build the latest Alpine image just run the script (must be done as root):

sudo ./build-alpine

For more options check the help:

sudo ./build-alpine -h

After the image is built it can be added as an image to LXD as follows:

lxc image import alpine-v3.3-x86_64-20160114_2308.tar.gz --alias alpine-v3.3
