There are proposals in Fedora to implement bootable container images as an image mode for the operating system.

* [Fedora change proposal](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OstreeNativeContainerStable)

## What needs work?

Broadly there are several areas where we haven’t yet reached our [goals](mission.md), and where you can help:

* At present, bootable container images must be built from a specific base image despite it being a goal to use standard base images.

* At present, we can only update a bootc enabled system with a bootable container image. It is not yet possible to use “bootc update” on a stock Linux system.

* When using “bootc install” to update a non-bootc Linux system, it is not possible to roll back to that previous behavior.

* The cryptographic trust chain is possible based on composefs, overlayfs, fsverity and UKI use to mount both application containers and the operating system bootable container images. However a working complete trust chain from hardware through to the app containers is not yet implemented.

* When rebooting these image based Linux systems, all transient changes made to the optional overlay are lost.
This would be confusing to a developer or someone trying to adopt these images.
The behavior is different from the behavior of containers, where you can make changes to a running container, stop and start that container without losing those local changes.

* Currently when we deploy a bootable container image to a stock Linux system, without bootc already present, it is not possible to rollback. We should fix this.

* Currently the tooling and the base images are limited to using RPM components in the container images. (bootc #468)
