Description Dan Callaghan 2014-08-22 03:18:04 UTC

Add something to the docs about how you can use custom distros (ones derived from Fedora, RHEL, or CentOS but named differently) and what you need to do in order to get them usable in Beaker.

Specifically symlinking harness repos in /var/www/beaker/harness.

These docs are now available here:

https://beaker-project.org/docs-develop/admin-guide/distro-import.html

("Fetching harness packages" and "Install options for distro features")

Have checked the doc, "Fetching harness packages" and "Install options for distro features" are there.

Change it to verified.
