Description of problem

when i use kata on a ubuntu node,i want to run a container with centos img, can kata support that?

the config:
[hypervisor.qemu]
path = "/usr/bin/qemu-vanilla-system-x86_64"
kernel = "/usr/share/kata-containers/vmlinuz.container" //this is centos kernel
initrd = "/usr/share/kata-containers/kata-containers-initrd.img" //this is cenos img
machine_type = "pc"

It should, but it depends on the configuration you're using, which CentOS version you're using, etc.

Please, provide all the configuration and versions of what you want to use.

Shouldn’t be an issue. Give it a try. If you use github/kata-containers/osbuilder, you’ll see that centos is a supported target for the rootfs builder. I’m not sure you’ll have requirements on the kernel, versus rootfs?
