Unfortunately we don't have a lot of documentation on Petitboot.. Contributions are always welcome.
The basic concept for petitboot configuration is that it tries to parse grub(2), pxe, syslinux etc configuration so you'd need to refer to each of those documentations for the proper syntax. You can check some of the configurations examples being used in by the automated testing here: https://github.com/open-power/petitboot/tree/master/test/parser/data
For the native format, again no formal documentation but the format is extremely simple:
# OpenPower Petitboot "Native format" example
# Use it with the "Retrieve config from URL" in Petitboot
# rough syntax:
#
# label this is your label
# kernel http/https/ftp://url-to-vmlinuz
# initrd http/https/ftp://url-to-initrd
# append command-line-options
#
label Linux Fedora 33 ppc64le
kernel https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/33/Everything/ppc64le/os/ppc/ppc64/vmlinuz
initrd https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/33/Everything/ppc64le/os/ppc/ppc64/initrd.img
append inst.repo=https://download-ib01.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/33/Everything/ppc64le/os/ inst.vnc inst.sshd
Note you might need to pass additional command-line options (append
line) so that the Distro installer can find your network, disks etc..
