There are several different Alpine versions available. Docker images should probably be based on the Mini Root Filesystem version; Minimal servers should probably be based on the standard ISO, but check the descriptions.
Once the installation disk boots up, a passwordless root
user will be
available. Also available will be a setup-alpine
script which will allow
for a diskless
(ram) data
(ram, with disked swap) or sys
(‘standard’
install) types of installation.
