noob wants open-suse "same as" suse LES 11 and 12
by robert.lugg from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4WS8K)
I have a task to create a docker container (a recipe) based on SUSE 11 SP 4 in it. The host OS must be SUSE 12 SP 5. I realize these are really old distributions.
So, I want to set up a VM and container to emulate as close as possible to what a customer has. The final delivery is a docker recipe which the customer will use. I want a setup that has a good chance of working at a customer's real site. I promise I did try to figure out what and where to download, but it is confusing as heck. I believe I want openSUSE equivalents of the SUSE enterprise builds, but I don't know. I also don't mind using SUSE or openSUSE although I'll likely need more than 60 days to complete the work.
Perhaps the problem is that these versions are old. Would someone be willing to provide simpleton instructions with links to the exact location (ie link and also name of distribution) of what I want? Presumably, this would be a location of an install *.iso image for the 12SP5 host and a docker base build for 11SP4.
Thank you.
