📝 Description
This PR addresses Issue #1280 and recent discussions in the E2B Discord community regarding build failures with non-Debian base images.
Currently, the provisioning scripts rely on
aptand Debian-specific filesystem layouts. Users attempting to use images like Alpine or CentOS often face cryptic build errors. This documentation update explicitly states the requirement for Debian/Ubuntu-based images to prevent this confusion.🛠️ Changes
apt.🔗 Context
💡 Motivation
To save users time debugging build failures caused by incompatible package managers (e.g.,
apk,yum) and to set clear expectations for custom template creation.
