This document will guide you through installing the Bare Metal Service (ironic)
using Bifrost.
Requirements
============
Supported operating systems
===========================
Supported operating systems:
1st tier support (fully tested in the CI, no known or potential issues):
* CentOS Stream 8
* Ubuntu 20.04 "Focal"
* Debian 9 "Buster"
2nd tier support (limited testing or known issues):
* Ubuntu 18.04 "Bionic"
Tested in the Bifrost CI, but no longer tested in the ironic upstream CI.
* RHEL 8 and regular CentOS 8
Only tested indirectly via CentOS Stream 8.
* openSUSE Leap 15.2
Tested in the CI but has frequent issues.
* Ubuntu 18.04, 20.04
* CentOS 8 Stream (normal CentOS 8 and RHEL 8 should work but are not tested)
* openSUSE Leap 15.2 (15.1 is supported but not recommended)
* Fedora 32 (30 is supported but not recommended)
* Debian Buster
Only the latest Fedora is tested in the CI.
.. note::
Operating systems evolve and so does the support for them, even on stable
branches. This especially concerns Fedora, which is evolving faster than
other distributions.
