`ostree admin deploy` OPTIONS REFSPEC

## Description

Takes a commit or revision REFSPEC, and queues the new deployment as default upon reboot.

## Options

`--os`="OSNAME"

  Use a different operating system root than the current one.

`--origin-file`="FILENAME"

  Use FILENAME as the origin, which is where OSTree will look for updated versions of the tree.

`--retain`

  Do not delete previous deployment.

`--karg-proc-cmdline`

  Import current /proc/cmdline.

`--karg`="NAME=VALUE"

  Set kernel argument, like root=/dev/sda1; this overrides any earlier argument with the same name.

`--karg-append`="NAME=VALUE"

  Append kernel argument; useful with e.g. console= that can be used multiple times.
