2024-04-05 18:12:45 <ncopa> I am playing with tinkerbell to provision local bare metal machines. Tinkerbell appears to have some sort of cloud-init support
2024-04-05 18:13:12 <ncopa> i think it would work out of the box with tiny-cloud, more or less
2024-04-05 18:13:42 <ncopa> the only question is if it is possible to easily overwrite the metadata url with a file?
2024-04-05 18:14:19 <ncopa> looking at https://tinkerbell.org/docs/concepts/templates/#full-example
2024-04-05 18:15:16 <ncopa> it looks like it has an Ec2 cloud-init data source, but expects to replace the metadata_urls: ["http://{{ .hegel_ip_port }}"]
2024-04-05 18:15:39 <ncopa> basically so cloud-init fetch the metadata from other ip
2024-04-05 18:18:23 <ncopa> if we coudl override the IMDS_ENDPOINT somehow, in some config file, it would probably just owrk out of the box with tinkerbell
2024-04-18 15:19:15 <bsteven> Hi. We been using an "/sbin/assemble-interfaces" script provided by the "tiny-cloud-network" package which came in "alpine-3.18.5-aarch64-uefi-tiny-r0".  This seems to have been removed in 3.18.6 and beyond image and "tiny-cloud-network" isn't available to install.  Does anyone know the reason and it there something equivalent? I did find a brief mention of that file in this issue https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/cl

2024-04-19 02:40:18 <tomalok> bsteven - the tiny-cloud-network stuff was (a) just for AWS and (b) mostly rendered obsolete when we switched to using dhcpcd in alpine-cloud-images because it supported ipv6 out of the box.  so yes, it's been deprecated as of 3.x-ish
