Description
In the past we had used both the Readme and/or a kickstart file to build the appliance build machine. Both of these are outdated since they are based on CentOS 8 (now EOL).
ToDo:
- The package list should be the same on RHEL/CentOS Stream 9 (confirm this)
- We can probably remove the kickstart file entirely since it hasn't been used in several years and consolidate all information to code blocks in the README.
- Update python commands to v3.9
- tigervnc is not needed
- https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-appliance-build/blob/master/kickstarts/centos8_build_machine.ks#L49-L53 is not needed
- ipxe references can be removed
- the source iso should be changed from CentOS Stream 8 to 9
- docker is not needed
- https://github.com/ManageIQ/manageiq-appliance-build/blob/master/README.md#optional-setup-apache-for-sharing-built-images can be removed
