[arch-releng] aif options
by Charles 02 Mar '12

02 Mar '12

Hi, I was trying to use the latest archiso 2012.02.29_04-00-01 and I am confused about the options of aif. I tried to start an installation with: aif -p automatic -c my_profile -d -l But it replied: ERROR: $5 is set to PROCEDURE ? We don't use $5, maybe you still need to update your code to the new api (all debug categories in $4) Apparently I should do "export DEBUG=1" before starting aif. But I still have to use the "-l" option to log to a file, which is not very consistent. However, the "-d" option still exists in the code of aif.sh. Should I use "-l" and "export DEBUG=1", is it the expected way to do it? Could you make that more consistent (option or export)? Thanks Charles

[arch-releng] How to add/create $User within AIF
by Richard N 01 Mar '12

01 Mar '12

We need the ability to create a new User within AIF procedures: Is there a method to add/create a new User (with a /home dir, ...) within an AIF install, so that upon completion, and reboot, of a successful AIF, the new user is properly setup. ? And/or if not, how about adding the User info in the (passwd, shadow, gshadow) files. For example, I tried several times within "worker_scripts, chrooting,... "? and concatenating the respective new User info to passwd, shadow, gshadow,... but, unfortunately, none of these worked. ? :( All I got was "Seg faults" when trying to use chroot -> useradd...? Other than that, AIF is very good. -thankyou. Regards, Rick.

[arch-releng] [PATCH] Fix detection of virtio block devices
by Kevin Shanahan 26 Feb '12

26 Feb '12

When installing on a KVM guest with virtio block devices, the disk detection fails because of missing 'type' file in sysfs for these devices. Try identifying via the 'vendor' file if 'type' is missing.

[arch-releng] [RFC][archiso] A rain of patches
by Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi 24 Feb '12

24 Feb '12

Note if you want to test this without using util-linux 2.21 (not released yet), must use these boot params: earlymodules=loop loop.max_loop=16 Currently archiso_shutdown is broken due recent /lib -> /usr/lib of udev. One patch in this series fixes it, this is mostly important when using cow_device otherwise there is no harm. If there any plans to make new officials images soon (before util-linux 2.21), I like to push all these patches, plus adding temporary workaround (mentioned boot params) to syslinux.cfg.

[arch-releng] archiso's (?) /dev/dm-* and /dev/loop devices and how to ignore them in AIF
by Dieter Plaetinck 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

So, in aif we switched approaches to list all possible block devices the user can install Arch to. at first, we listed blockdevices directly in /dev, by having some expressions like /dev/hd*, /dev/sd*, then later we needed to add /dev/vd*, /dev/xvd* and more to support all kinds of hardware and virtualisation solutions. This was a bit of a kludge, so we approached the problem from the other direction: Now we go over everything in /sys/block and filter _out_ the stuff we _don't_ want. (such as devices with size 0 - empty card readers - type 5 - cdrom drives) etc. see https://github.com/Dieterbe/aif/blob/develop/src/core/libs/lib-blockdevices… This seems to work at least a tiny bit better, even though the problem is similar (we need to maintain filters to remove what we don't want..) I think the final filter we need to add is for the following devices: /dev/dm-0 /dev/dm-1 /dev/dm-2 /dev/loop0 /dev/loop1 /dev/loop100 /dev/loop101 /dev/loop102 /dev/loop103 /dev/loop104 /dev/loop105 /dev/loop106 /dev/loop107 /dev/loop108 /dev/loop109 /dev/loop110 /dev/loop2 /dev/loop3 /dev/loop4 /dev/loop5 /dev/loop6 /dev/loop7 are these all created by archiso? what exactly are they for? does anyone know what is the best way to ignore them? * some property in /sys/block/<dev>/ ? * how about just maintaining a list of exactly all these filenames .. or: * how about having archiso maintain a file called /var/aif-blockdevices or something? then aif can read that file and ignore blockdevices based on what it finds there. (just don't call it archiso-blockdevices or something, because AIF is supposed to be able to run in several environments)
