1.2. Enabling extended support repositories for image building

Procedure

1. Create the /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories directory by running the following command:

   $ sudo mkdir -p /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories

2. Copy the /usr/share/osbuild-composer/repositories/rhel-9.4.json file into the /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories directory by running the following command:

   $ sudo cp /usr/share/osbuild-composer/repositories/rhel-9.4.json /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories/rhel-9.4.json

3. Update the baseos source by modifying the /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories/rhel-9.4.json file with the following values:

   # ...
   "baseurl": "https://cdn.redhat.com/content/eus/rhel<9>/<9.4>//baseos/os",

4. Optional. Apply the baseos update by running the following command:

   $ sudo sed -i "s,dist/rhel<9>/<9.4>/$(uname -m)/baseos/,eus/rhel<9>/<9.4>/$(uname -m)/baseos/,g" \
   /etc/osbuild-composer/repositories/rhel-<9.4>.json
