Bootstraping a Local KernelCI

on YouTube ↗32m

" summary

Shows how to run a minimal local KernelCI in under a day by using the KernelCI docker image plus separate lava containers, connecting their Docker networks, and creating API tokens and a lab via kci-admin. Builds use kci-build to compile, push artifacts to the storage API, and register metadata; tests use jobs_from_api + lava-cli to generate and submit LAVA jobs. Official kernelci docker lacks storage so a more complete fork is recommended; manual token/callback setup is still required.
