similar to: fedoostrap or deboostrap requirement

As part of the oVirt Node[1] project, I'm going to P.O.C. a version of the node using febootstrap 2.x instead of livecd-creator. The main reasons in doing this is for allowing a r/w root filesystem without some hacky overlayfs and just to see if it can be done. On IRC, rwmjones mentioned a few issues he ran into with febootstrap 2.x where some rpms had %post scripts which aren't really

Systems such as Debian (and thus Ubuntu) operate with 64-bit programs in /lib, with /lib64 a symlink to it: as a result, they apply a patch to their glibc adjusting the default search path of the 64-bit dynamic loader (only used if the library is not found in ld.so.cache) to look in /lib, and instruct the 32-bit one to look in /lib32. Because fakechroot is implemented via LD_PRELOAD, it ends up

These small fixes are required to fix the build and tests on Debian (using the debootstrap/debirf appliance). There is currently another bug in the Debian tests which I'm looking into. hexdump always fails as follows: libguestfs: error: hexdump: hexdump: /test123: hexdump: /sysroot/test123: Bad file descriptor Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat

Hi, just a short heads up about the current status of libguestfs on Debian: Current git master builds and works fine on Debian sid. The only change you have to make is to use a custom kernel instead of the one in squeeze/sid by pointing DEBIRF_KERNEL_PACKAGE in appliance/debian/debirf.conf to something recent enough (>= 2.6.35) like:

Previously posted here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-December/msg00041.html I can't get aptitude to work under debirf (not on Ubuntu anyway), so using apt-get is necessary for me.

Previously: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-December/msg00044.html we had to disable a lot of packages which were missing in Ubuntu Karmic. However with the patch I just posted: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-May/msg00132.html we don't need to remove packages just because they are missing. But there is still one package which is present but doesn't install

Hi, I have a Ruby class in "nagios" module - it''s located in nagios/ manifests/ssa_nagios_checks.rb and looks like this hostclass :ssa_nagios_checks do ... end In nagios/manifests/init.pp I have class nagios::server { ... include ssa_nagios_checks ... } And I get the following error .... debug: importing ''/etc/puppet/modules/nagios/manifests/

So I got a lot further building libguestfs on Ubuntu, up to the point where I can boot the appliance and run some simple commands. We need to push some patches upstream, and there are still some things in Ubuntu itself which are broken. This documents how far I've got. (1) libguestfs from git, Ubuntu 9.10, all updated to the latest versions. You will of course also need to read the README

Hi, Since I've never succeeded to compile libguestfs from source on Gentoosince the build process of the appliance based on debootstrap fails, I'm wondering how can I tell the compilation process to use a precompiled blob appliance? Also can I use non fedora & debian but use some minimal gentoo based appliance I have? Thanks Alex

This is a repost of a previously posted set. It's been updated following review comments. [PATCH 1/4] Add a core_pattern debug command Added missing return statements. [PATCH 2/4] Call sync after guestfsd exits Remove redundant sleep 1; sync [PATCH 3/4] Shut down the appliance cleanly [PATCH 4/4] Ignore launch() error in virt-rescue These were previously 2 patches. They are otherwise

[PATCH 1/3] Add a core_pattern debug command The first patch is just a rework of Rich's earlier core dump patch. It turns it into a debug subcommand so it can be called at any time. This also has the advantage of explicitly labelling an extremely untidy API as debug. [PATCH 2/3] Call sync after guestfsd exits The second patch seems to be required for cores to be dumped reliably. I was able to

I spent the last couple of days rethinking how we go about building the appliance, and the difficulties we have porting that to other Linux distros. I've come up with a much better way that works better and faster on (so far) Fedora and Debian (probably on Ubuntu too, not tried it), and should be much simpler to port to other distros. The current way is to do: +------------------+

Hello, does anyone have a vbd file of these 2 Operating Systems ? So far I only managed to get Debian Sarge installed properly with deboostrap. I would be more than happy if anyone had a DiskImage or a good howto for at least FreeBSD.
