How to install Alpine linux in EVE

[alanngo]

Hello,

I would like to know is there a way to install Alpine linux in eve. I want to install it as Alpine linux is a very light-weight distro and it is very suitable to use as host node. VPCS is light-weight as well but is has been known as has some error such as DHCP process and it has no telnet function.

Appreciate for any advice!!

like any other Linux.

I have tried that guidance but cannot create. That's why I am looking for another way here.

After I created new HDD virtioa.qcow2 with the below command, I cannot see the node in Add a new node windows. Please see the details steps as belowL



Because the Alpine is very lightweight so I just assign it 2Gb of disk.



When I use the image that recommend by EVE here https://mega.nz/#F!y5YCwZCA!42_S__9wwPVO0zHIfC4xow I can see the node available in Add a new node windows, for example Tinycore Linux.

Can anyone advise my case ?

Hello,

I have failed because I don't follow the qemu image folder rule http://www.eve-ng.net/documentation/images-table.

I have re-tried with the folder name format /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/linux-alpine-3.8.1/ it works well.

Hope it helps someone who has been experiencing the same issue like me.

Thanks for reading, cheer
