Hi, I tried to rewrite virt-rescue from C to OCaml. Goals were feature parity with C implementation, smaller codebase and hopefully better maintainability. I still don't know if I've covered everything right. So, please check it out. PS: my git send-email seems to be broken, so I'm sending it from thunderbird Thanks! maros

Hi, is there anybody understanding HAL? I use CentOS 4 (RHEL 4) I need set specific mount options for USB flash disk. I found I can do it in /usr/share/hal/fdi/95userpolicy/storage-policy.fdi <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><!-- -*- SGML -*- --> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="volume.fstype"

All - I''ve put together a new integration branch based on Chris''s new master. This includes the userspace patches for qgroups, restriper, and Josef''s restore utility, plus a bunch of other things with mostly minor impact. The shortlog is attached at the end of this email. As always, it''s available from:

The first three patches were posted previously: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-July/msg00082.html The last two patches in this series change guestfish -i to use this new code.

These three patches (two were previously posted) can do simple operating system inspection in C. Example of use: ><fs> add-ro rhel55.img ><fs> run ><fs> inspect-os /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 ><fs> inspect-get-type /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 linux ><fs> inspect-get-distro /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhel ><fs> inspect-get-arch

Previously posted: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-December/msg00038.html Inspection now really succeeds on a small number of simple guests. To test it out: $ ./run guestfish -v -x -a /tmp/centos-6.img ><fs> run ><fs> debug sh "guestfs-inspection --verbose" Rich.

This is a more working version. Inspection (partially) succeeds on a real guest this time :-) You can test it out on a real guest (in this case, a CentOS disk image located at /tmp/centos-6.img) by doing: $ ./run guestfish -v -x -a /tmp/centos-6.img ><fs> run ><fs> debug sh "guestfs-inspection --verbose" which will print lots of debugging, and at the end the
