Graphical setup of LXD (if needed on first run) #7

Open marbetschar opened 4 years ago

marbetschar commented 4 years ago

Right now Boxes expects LXD to be installed and initialized on the host system:

sudo apt install lxd
sudo lxd init            # use default values for everything

We should provide a graphical way to do so to improve the first run experience.

Just in case you didn't know, you can apply a configuration file to lxd init, via: lxd init --preseed # Pre-seed mode, expects YAML config from stdin

Or use the auto flag for non-interactive configuration: lxd init --auto (you can also specify values for that, like [--storage-backend=dir])

from lxd init --help.
