Talk:RiftWare installation (release 0)

Questions:

- Clarify what exactly means "on any recent fedora system"

• (JLM) currently fc20, but soon fc23

- What is the command "./scripts/vm_image/mkvmimage -c -m build -e 8" exactly doing? Is it generating a new VM image to use from that point?

• (JLM) Yes. It using loop mounts to build a VM image without booting it

- Clarify exactly which image to download from https://open.riftio.com/download/. I guess it is rift-build-latest

• (JLM) a specific link was added to the wiki
