8.2 Operating System Images

An image, in short, is a file containing a file system with data. If the structure
of the data within this file system is based on a set of files and directories
needed to prepare an operating system, it is an Operating System Image.

8.3 Installing imageBuilder

To use the scr command line tool, install a set of POS_Image RPM packages
as already mentioned. For example, to build and run the minimal standard
image on a cash register system, install the imageBuilder, the netboot image
description, and the minimal image description package.
This step is performed with the following commands
rpm -Uhv POS_Image-Builder.rpm
rpm -Uhv POS_Image-Netboot.rpm
rpm -Uhv POS_Image-Minimal.rpm

Note: The imageBuilder packages are installed during the installation of the admin server.
