were these "Flatcar" images in GovCloud actually pushed by Flatcar? #257
Comments
Hello, good that you filed a ticket, thanks! We only publish the official AMIs listed in the docs and under In addition we included a section of unofficial AMIs where we linked the Giant Swarm China AMIs because even though we don't publish them ourselves, we think they are trustworthy. Maybe we could do this for GovCloud, too, depending on how published them there…? In the mean time create your own AMI Compile
However, I can't test this because I don't have a GovCloud account. There may be something in I guess you can also just create an AMI in the web interface since it's a one-time action. |
@pothos thanks very much for the quick reply and helpful notes.
From a potential user perspective, I would be fairly upset if those images were linked on that page without a very clear warning that those images were not published by the Flatcar project and are not trustworthy.
I went to download the binary, but the assets on that release only specify a
(I could spin up a Linux VM to do the build but I'm out of time for now). |
Maybe it's easier to create your AMI by hand in the web UI or with the Yes, I meant that depending on who ("how" was a typo) published them this can be considered I think it would be nicer if we publish official AMIs there. |
We don't publish images to GovCloud, if anyone wants them they'll need to upload them themselves. |
Description
Flatcar has a list of AMIs https://docs.flatcar-linux.org/os/booting-on-ec2/#choosing-a-channel
and there appear to be images in GovCloud West and East, but those AMIs are not listed on the site.
Those AMI names are
Flatcar-stable-2345.3.1-hvm
which are listed as Stable on Flatcar's site: https://www.flatcar-linux.org/releases/#stable-release...but how do I actually trust or validate that image?
Impact
I can't move forward with Flatcar.
Environment and steps to reproduce
there is a Flatcar image in
us-gov-west-1
:there is a Flatcar image in
us-gov-east-1
:Expected behavior
I believe the project would list the AMIs in GovCloud.
