Create qrexec dracut module #1310

Open marmarek opened 9 years ago

marmarek commented 9 years ago

Create small (?) dracut module to allow having small, initramfs based service VMs with just qrexec agent (and the service scripts itself). Such VM may or may not have its /rw partition. And probably have no GUI.

This would be useful for creating really small and fast:

GPG vault VMs (with split GPG) - /rw required for keys storage, needs some solution for GUI confirmation
PDF converter - no /rw required
FirewallVM (?) #806
probably many more

This is yet another prerequisite for #1006

This is somehow middle road to unikernel.
