## Installation
**Please read the [CoreOS installation guide](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/bare-metal/)** before attempting installation. As uCore is an extension of CoreOS, it does not provide it's own custom or GUI installer.

> **Read the [CoreOS installation guide](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/bare-metal/)** before attempting installation. uCore extends Fedora CoreOS; it does not provide it's own custom or GUI installer.
There are varying methods of installation for bare metal, cloud providers, and virtualization platforms.
**All CoreOS installation methods require the user to [produce an Ignition file](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/producing-ign/).** This Ignition file should, at mimimum, set a password and SSH key for the default user (default username is `core`).
> [!NOTE]
> It is highly recommended that for bare metal installs, first test your ignition configuration by installing in a VM (or other test hardware) using the same bare metal process.

Once a machine is running any Fedora CoreOS version, you can easily rebase to uCore. Installing CoreOS itself can be done through [a number of provisioning methods](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/bare-metal/).
To rebase an existing machine to the latest uCore:
> [!WARNING]
> **Rebasing from Fedora IoT or Atomic Desktops is not supported!**
> If ignition doesn't provide a desired feature, then Fedora CoreOS doesn't support that feature. Rebasing from another system to gain a filesystem feature or GUI installation is very likely to cause problems later on.
To rebase an existing CoreOS machine to the latest uCore:
1. Execute the `rpm-ostree rebase` command (below) with desired `IMAGE` and `TAG`.
1. Reboot, as instructed.
