Show Notes
With SUSE's ALP stirring up discussions how Linux distribution may look like, we decided to try different approach how installer may work.
Part of these installer try-outs is **Iguana** - installation initramfs where all heavy lifting is done in containers.
Moving installers to the containers and by leveraging container infrastructure, we are trying to solve ever changing requirements or need to have security and other fixes in installer, which was always a bit of challenge for relatively static things like OS installers.
