uki type

This is a preview feature. Its API and behavior is subject to change. You must enable this feature by specifying uki in the previewFeatures API.

Enables the creation of Unified Kernel Images (UKIs) and configures systemd-boot to add UKIs as boot entries. UKI combines the Linux kernel, initramfs, kernel command-line arguments, etc. into a single EFI executable, simplifying system boot processes and improving security.

If this type is specified, then os.bootloader.resetType must also be specified.

Example:

os:
  bootLoader:
    resetType: hard-reset
  uki:
    kernels: auto
previewFeatures:
- uki

Added in v0.8.

kernels

Specifies which kernels to produce UKIs for.

The value can either contain:

• The string "auto"
• A list of kernel version strings.

When "auto" is specified, the tool automatically searches for all the installed kernels and produces UKIs for all the found kernels.

If a list of kernel versions is provided, then the tool will only produce UKIs for the kernels specified.

The kernel versions must match the regex: ^\d+\.\d+\.\d+(\.\d+)?(-[\w\-\.]+)?$. Examples of valid kernel formats: 6.6.51.1-5.azl3, 5.10.120-4.custom, 4.18.0-80.el8.

Example:

os:
  uki:
    kernels: auto

Example:

os:
  uki:
    kernels:
      - 6.6.51.1-5.azl3
      - 5.10.120-4.custom

Added in v0.8.
