This is a temporary workaround to disable auto updates. As we move out of the alpha there will be a nicer method.

Add a unit file to stop update-engine-reboot-manager

There is a single simple script called "update-engine-reboot-manager" that does an automatic reboot after update-engine applies an update to your CoreOS machine. To stop automatic reboots after an update has been applied you need to stop this daemon. You can do this via a service file that is started at boot.

Create a file called /media/state/units/stop-reboot-manager.service that has the following contents:

[Unit]
Description=stop update-engine-reboot-manager

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/systemctl stop update-engine-reboot-manager

[Install]
WantedBy=local.target

Enable it immediatly

sudo systemctl enable --runtime /media/state/units/stop-reboot-manager.service
sudo systemctl start stop-reboot-manager.service

Have fun!
