Hi Folks, Hopefully this will be of interest to some of you. I''ve put together a debian-installer preseed setup, that allows (among other things) one to do a non-interactive install of Xen with a minimal Debian as it''s Domain0, sets up LVM so that one can create disks for other domains and then lets you run the debian installer in a new domain so that you can then install

Hi all. I am trying to use debian package preseeding within my modules. Therefor I have created a preseed_package.pp like: define authentication::preseed_package ( $ensure ) { file { "/var/local/preseed/$name.preseed": source => "$module_path/files/$name.preseed", mode => 600, backup => false, require => File["/var/local/preseed"], } package {

22:06 < adam12> rwmjones: If you're still around, just curious - any reason why the ubuntu14 image doesn't come with `dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server` already configured for firstboot? The reason is because I couldn't work out how to automate this in the preseed script. If you want to have a go, then see:

By default the installer will set the hostname to what the DHCP returns, exposing details of the machine where make-template.ml runs. Instead, force "unassigned-hostname.unassigned-domain" as hostname, so plays nicely with the hostname setting code in virt-customize. --- builder/templates/debian.preseed | 2 +- builder/templates/ubuntu.preseed | 5 +++++ 2 files changed, 6

Hi, this series improves the generation of Debian templates, automating basically almost all the steps needed. Also, it fixes the generation of aarch64 images with NVRAM, which is currently removed too soon, and thus not saved and compressed.

Hi, I'm using PXELINUX and I'm getting "Out of memory parsing config file" when network booting. I have a lot of entries in my default file under pxelinux.cfg and if I delete some entries the error disapear. Is there a limit for number of entries? How can I increase them? My entries are like these: DISPLAY boot.txt LABEL debian-Debian6.0.6-amd64 ??? kernel

Hi, I would like to set the puppet labs repository on my preseed ubuntu file. So far I think i can use only the* late_command* as a post installation process but wondering if there is another way of adding this repository. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

The deb-oriented package providers (and others perhaps, it''s only debian I''m looking at right now) allow one to set a seedfile with the appropriate debconf responses when installing a package. However, there doesn''t seem to be a tidy way inherent to puppet to handle reconfiguring the package if the seedfile changes. It can be done quite easily with something like the

Hi all, Just reading through Luke''s interview on computerworld.com.au and I came across this statement: "This topic comes up on the list periodically, however, and most people are very tight-lipped about what they''re doing with Puppet." Being the chattermouth that I am, I''d like to take this opportunity to tell you all what we''re (that is, my

Hi, I am new with Puppet and I am very glad using it, but I have a basic doubt, when I use puppet to install packages to a debian machine with: debian:/etc/puppet# cat manifests/packages/lm-sensors package { lm-sensors: ensure => installed } Does it run apt-get update before installing the package? If not how is the best way to do it? How Puppet deals with packages installations that

Hi, We create virtual machine image templates by doing automated minimal installations of different Linux distributions (via preseed/kickstarter/autoyast). At the end of the installation, we remove the SSH host keys (rm -f /etc/ssh/ssh*_key*). Fresh SSH host keys will be generated on the first boot of the image instances. This is done by adding a "dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server" call

I''ve been working on this on the odd occasion, I think it mostly works, or it did last I tried which was a while back. I''m sure it is too hacky in places. My plan was to clean it up on the next test day. I''m mostly just sending this for Wei''s benefit since he is independently looking at adding Debian HVM guest tests for OVMF purposes. Ian. commit

Hi, I''ve just changed my debian preseed configuration to install the debian unstable package of puppet v0.22.1. As part of the preseed I have a late command that clobbers the /etc/init.d/puppet file into using the puppet standalone program and not the puppetd (as this is what I''m using). Since the upgrade to 0.22.1 every boot hangs during the initd. Going into standalone mode

Heya, I''m using puppet on Ubuntu (Gutsy/Hardy) and there''s a problem with the default setup of Ubuntu. Ubuntu uses network-manager to start the network in the background, which in turn causes puppet to start before the network is up. Puppet will then exit because it can''t resolve the server name. Currently I "solve" this problem by uninstalling
