debian:12 — packaged as a smolmachine
smolvm pack pull registry.smolmachines.com/library/debian:latest This command uses a tag published for this package. Confirm that its platform entry in the tags table matches your host architecture; :latest is not universally multi-platform.
Verified steps — with the smolvm CLI installed:
# Pull :latest — linux/amd64 only
smolvm pack pull registry.smolmachines.com/library/debian:latest -o debian.smolmachine # Run a one-off command — ephemeral, the VM is discarded when it exits
smolvm pack run --sidecar debian.smolmachine bash # Or run it as a persistent machine — create, start, exec, stop
smolvm machine create --name debian --from debian.smolmachine smolvm machine start --name debian smolvm machine exec --name debian -- bash smolvm machine stop --name debian | tag | digest | size | platforms | created |
