A default stack in PCF Dev is cflinuxfs2 (based on Ubuntu 14.04). But I would like to use a custom stack (specifically cflinuxfs3 based on Ubuntu 18.04).

I have built it successfully (also created a corresponding BOSH release), but I am unable to register it to my PCF Dev environment. The problem seems to be that PCF Dev does not support BOSH Director.

I have also tried to use the CF Stack API, partially succeeded in registering a new stack (name and description), but was not able to upload the actual rootfs tarball.

Could anyone help me how to properly upload a custom stack to PCF Dev?

It has been my experience that PCF Dev is mainly suitable for application development. If you want to create any bosh release, you should be using bosh lite.

I highly recommend you do a bosh lite setup with cloud foundry, and you can adjust anything you want in that setup. I have been able to do that based on bosh lite instructions and cloud foundry instructions. And I recommend you use https://github.com/starkandwayne/bucc to help you get started with bosh lite, and then add cf on top.
