How can I enable transient /etc? · bootc-dev/bootc · Discussion #1265

I have spent a lot of time trying and it seems like I'm just doing something wrong.

I am building a container like this:

FROM quay.io/fedora/fedora-bootc:41
# ...
COPY <<EOF /usr/lib/ostree/prepare-root.conf
[composefs]
enabled = true
[etc]
transient = true
EOF

and nothing happens, any changes that I make to /etc after installing that image through kickstart remain.

Have you tried running dracut, as suggested in the example?
