How do I install Fedora CoreOS on my VPS?

Fedora CoreOS runs in your VPS's RAM after installation. In this tutorial we show you how you can then install Fedora CoreOS (FCOS) to your VPS's hard disk. Fedora CoreOS is the CoreOS' successor, which reached an end-of-life state in may 2020.

Fedora CoreOS can only be installed on an X4 or larger.

Step 1

Geef bij de bestelling van een VPS met FCOS, of herinstallatie van een bestaande VPS een SSH-key op.

ssh key fcos order


 

Step 2

You'll receive a confirmation of your order. Connect to your VPS via SSH with the username 'core' once you see your VPS and a login screen in your TransIP control panel.


 

Step 3

Use the following commands to install FCOS to your hard disk:

curl http://pxe.frontend.transip.nl/fedora-coreos.ign/ -o ignition.json
sudo coreos-installer install /dev/vda -i ignition.json -s stable
sudo reboot

Please note: This instruction applies to Fedora CoreOS Stable. If you'd like to install FCOS testing or next, replace the 'install' command as follows:

sudo coreos-installer install /dev/vda -i ignition.json -s testing

or

sudo coreos-installer install /dev/vda -i ignition.json -s next
