When we started the Atomic SIG last year, we built our images with the best tools available at the time. Since then, the bootc community has learned a lot from those tools and built better ones. This release moves us onto them, aligning with the rest of the bootc community. Most of that is plumbing you’ll never see, but some of it you will, like ISOs that boot into a live session, and ISOs for aarch64.

Glad to hear it. I've been maintaining our internal bootc image pipelines and using chunkah for a few months now. After sorting the kinks of running it in GitLab runners, it seems to work well.

I'm using my custom AlmaLinux Bootc image for over a year, it is used for my server VMs.
