tools like singularity (https://github.com/hpcng/github) can be used to create containers of older distributions, like sle12 or centos-7. What I'm missing in openSUSE, is the possibility to cross-bootstrap. In Debian, we have a script called rebootstrap [1] and it allows to bootstrap Debian for any supported from x86_64 completely from source.
Yeah. Something similar would be fantastic! Bastille (a FreeBSD jail management system) also uses it to create Ubuntu Linux jails under FreeBSD. I did a dirty hack to install openSUSE, but that's really a hack, and not something elegant: https://peter.czanik.hu/posts/opensuse_in_bastille/ Peter
