[Announce] Rebuild/Refresh a custom SoaS iso from a running stick
by Frederick Grose
We are a good ways closer to being able to
"Support cloning of a customized SoaS image directly from that running
image", which is the SoaS spin F15 feature proposal #4 on this page,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Soas_V5/
If your SoaS machine has 4+ GiBytes disc space (as is commonly available on
an attached hard drive that you could mount in your SoaS instance), then
this alpha version python script, edit-liveos.py,
http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/edit-liveos
(based on the livecd-tools, edit-livecd), and a copy or rsync will let you
build a new, custom installation .iso file from your running SoaS instance.
I've tested the script on SoaS in F13 and F14, and with some filesystem
hacks (this is my first python project), it will run to completion.
I've booted the F14 version and confirmed that the system overlay file was
refreshed and the system and user customizations had transferred. See this
screenshot of 'About my Computer':
http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/My%20computer.png
Customization of SoaS spins have been a long-sought goal of the project.
See, for example,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Feature_SoaS_customization, and all
the work Satellit has contributed toward the Sugar Creation Kit,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit
There remain many supporting tasks to be completed before we have an
integrated product.
1. The edit-liveos.py script depends on rsync, which has to be
installed on SoaS first.
2. The livecd-iso-to-disk script needs to be amended to transfer the
home.img file from the new source.iso
3. Other supporting installation scripts and a Sugar Activity are
needed to simplify the use of the onboard image builder.
Some of the above are addressed in Sugar Clone,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Sugar_Clone
which is a quick way to achieve customization without any disc resources
beyond those on the Sugar Stick itself.
I imagine that further refinements of these tools will allow us to
automatically monitor the system overlay consumption and advise the Learner
to "run a refresh" rebuilds their personal system or provides a fresh one
from the School Server.
Please see the Sugar Clone page to see the project goals and plans, and
please help test the new, edit-liveos script!

Would like instructions to build a bootable USB with F14 for the Mac
by wbsec.flive＠new.rr.com
I am using F14 live CD and trying to build a USB with Fedora 14 that will boot a Mac intel machine. I have searched the internet and forums for the answer but have not found a solution that works. Can someone supply me with instructions? I don't know if I am formatting the USB wrong or if I need to download a package in order to do this. It seems like I should be able to use "./livecd-iso-to-disk --reset-mbr --noverify --efi /dev/sr0 /dev/sdb1" but the USB is not recognized on the Mac in my tests. Thank you for any help.

[PATCH] Enable an optional tmpdir for e2image in fs.resize2fs()
by Frederick Grose
Bug 674697 <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=674697> - Enable an
optional tmpdir for e2image in fs.resize2fs()
Created attachment 476676
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=476676&action=diff>
[details] <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=476676&action=edit>
Enable an optional tmpdir for fs.resize2fs()
During image resizing or minimizing, the output from e2image in fs.resize2fs()
is hardcoded to go to /tmp.
This can strain the resources of a LiveOSystem, where /tmp is on a tmpfs.
A clone option is being added to edit-livecd.py
(seehttps://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=448030#c27), where
this feature
will be significant for resource-limited Sugar on a Stick installations.
The tmpdir.patch, attached, has only been tested in the cloning code path of
edit-liveos.py to remove the bind mount of /tmp onto an attached disc.
I'm not familiar with the traditional building of Live images, so
please help in testing this.

Building a multipart customized install ISO
by James Heather
Can anyone work out why I can no longer build a customized install ISO
that spans multiple disks?
Attached is the kickstart file. I last built this on F12, and it hasn't
changed except for changing the repos from F12 to F14, and a few minor
changes to the packages. It used to build as two DVDs, but now it seems
to run out of space when writing to the underlying image. Obviously I'm
including more than one DVD's worth of stuff--but I thought the 'part'
line was supposed to split over multiple ISOs?
I don't understand why it used to work and doesn't any more... what am I
doing wrong?
James
PS You won't be able to build it yourself without removing the 'local'
bits, because they're coming from a local repo.

Re: [Fedora-livecd-list] [Announce] Rebuild/Refresh a custom SoaS iso from a running stick

I've tested the script on SoaS in F13 and F14, and with some filesystem hacks (this is my first python project), it will run to completion.
I've booted the F14 version and confirmed that the system overlay file was refreshed and the system and user customizations had transferred. See this screenshot of 'About my Computer':
http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/My%20computer.png
Customization of SoaS spins have been a long-sought goal of the project. See, for example, http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Feature_SoaS_customization, and all the work Satellit has contributed toward the Sugar Creation Kit, http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit
There remain many supporting tasks to be completed before we have an integrated product.
1. The edit-liveos.py script depends on rsync, which has to be
installed on SoaS first.
2. The livecd-iso-to-disk script needs to be amended to transfer the
home.img file from the new source.iso
3. Other supporting installation scripts and a Sugar Activity are
needed to simplify the use of the onboard image builder.
Some of the above are addressed in Sugar Clone,
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Sugar_Clone
which is a quick way to achieve customization without any disc resources beyond those on the Sugar Stick itself.
I imagine that further refinements of these tools will allow us to automatically monitor the system overlay consumption and advise the Learner to "run a refresh" rebuilds their personal system or provides a fresh one from the School Server.
Please see the Sugar Clone page to see the project goals and plans, and please help test the new, edit-liveos script!
