I hadn't swapped out all the instances of rawhide in the instructions in my previous PR. Also remove `enforcing=0` since SELinux should work now. And graphical boot should work fine now as well, but just inherit whatever is the default from the current `/proc/cmdline`.

Installing inside an existing system
A really neat feature of OSTree is that you can parallel install inside your existing OS. Let's try that, we first make sure we have the ostree packages:
yum -y install ostree ostree-grub2
Next, we add /ostree/repo to the filesystem:
ostree admin init-fs /
Add a remote which points to the Fedora 27 content:
ostree remote add --set=gpgkeypath=/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-27-primary fedora-ws-27 https://dl.fedoraproject.org/ostree/27/
If you do not have the Fedora 27 GPG primary key, you can get it from
https://getfedora.org/keys/. Alternatively, if you really need to, you can turn
off GPG verification using the --no-gpg-verify option.
Pull down the content (you can interrupt and restart this):
ostree --repo=/ostree/repo pull fedora-ws-27:fedora/27/x86_64/workstation
Initialize an "os" for this, which acts as a state root.
ostree admin os-init fedora
For EFI systems: currently ostree uses the presence of /boot/grub2/grub.cfg to detect a BIOS system, but that can be present on systems booted with EFI as well. If you boot with EFI (/sys/firmware/efi exists), then you need to move /boot/grub2/grub.cfg aside:
mv /boot/grub2/grub.cfg /boot/grub2/grub.cfg.bak
Since this file is not used on a EFI system, this won't break the operation of your current system. While you are at it, back up your existing grub config:
cp /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg.bak
Deploy; we use enforcing=0 to avoid SELinux issues for now, and --karg=rghb=0 to avoid a hang with Plymouth (these aren't needed if deploying Fedora 26 currently).
ostree admin deploy --os=fedora --karg-proc-cmdline fedora-ws-27:fedora/27/x86_64/workstation
To initialize this root, you'll need to copy over your /etc/fstab, /etc/locale.conf, /etc/default/grub at least, along with the ostree remote that we added:
for i in /etc/fstab /etc/default/grub /etc/locale.conf /etc/ostree/remotes.d/fedora-ws-27.conf ; do cp $i /ostree/deploy/fedora/deploy/$checksum.0/$i; done
where $checksum is whatever the checksum of the deployment is; there should only be a
single directory there if this is your first deployment.
If you have a separate /home mount point, you'll need to change
that fstab copy to refer to /var/home. If you don't have a separate /home mount
point, then you need to make sure that a symlink will be created:
echo 'L /var/home - - - - ../sysroot/home' > /ostree/deploy/fedora/deploy/$checksum.0/etc/tmpfiles.d/00rpm-ostree.conf
You'll also need to copy your user entry from /etc/passwd, /etc/group,
and /etc/shadow into the new /etc/, and add yourself to the wheel group
in /etc/group. Don't copy just copy these files literally, however, since
the system users and groups won't be the same.
For BIOS systems: while ostree regenerated the bootloader configuration,
it writes config into /boot/loader/grub.cfg. On a current grubby
system, you'll need to copy that version over:
cp /boot/loader/grub.cfg /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
