Bug Description
Tinycore has been the base for the Ironic Python Agent ramdisk (TinyIPA) used in the tests in the Ironic CI for a long time. Unfortunately it has become less and less tiny during the years, it lacks mirror https support, it uses a lightweight libc which caused issues multiple times, and we need to maintain a very specific series of scripts to be able to build it.
We’d like to explore alternatives to it, the main candidate being a gentoo based image that has also support in DiskImage-Builder.

while locally that works for me, more work on DIB upstream is needed to make gentoo actually work
