What's happening with this? It was only ever done on i386 and the main reason was so that things would fit on a floppy. Since we can't do that anymore even with diet, we dropped it (maintaining a second libc and keeping things working against two was a PITA).

Because I am making a live CD for VIA Epia M and want the latest X.org video drivers with xxmc hardware acceleration for mpeg2 playback. I also want to build in lirc support including kernel modules. The packages are slowly getting into FC but won't be there before FC5 at earliest and I want them before the end of the month.

Well, the kernel that is running on the parent system has nothing to do with the kernel on the live CD system. I'm currently connecting to the internet through the GPRS so I can't download updates and try them by my self... But, there are two things you should pay attention to: 1. What repository are you using for live CD building? FC4 or not? 2. Is the python on the parent system FC4 default, or is maybe updated?

For the above example, it would be rootdir='/tmp/livecd-build_no12/system'.

I used stock FC4 as the repository. I updated a number of packages on the system itself via yum. I tried running against two different kernels. Note: I did build a new kernel on this box, though I never actually ran it. Could building the kernel have changed some things that Kadischi assumes will be present by default?

Hm, we can try, but I think ts object is just the interface to the rpm database. I think it would help if you could edit /usr/share/kadischi/lib/functions.py, replace get_kernel_version function with the following: def get_kernel_version (rootdir): """Returns kernel version that is installed on the destination system""" kernel_version = None clear_rpm_db_files (rootdir) ts = rpm.TransactionSet (rootdir) mi = ts.dbMatch () for hdr in mi: print "%s-%s-%s" % (hdr['name'], hdr['version'], hdr['release']) for mi in ts.dbMatch ('name', 'kernel'): kernel_version = "%s-%s" % (mi['version'], mi['release']) clear_rpm_db_files (rootdir) return kernel_version And then send me the output.

I saw that the linuxrc script of the initrd.img that kadischi uses (/boot/isolinux/initrd.img) has the following lines: ..... .... cd / find-live-cd /sysroot # Make kernel don't mount root fs echo 0x100 > /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev ..... ..... I have a little question : what is the effect of the echo 0x100 > /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev commans ? (In the init script of initrd of fedora core 4 there is no such echo 0x100 command ; I know that this initrd is a different format but if I am not wrong also in older version of Fedora/RedHat there were no such echo 0x100 commands in the linuxrc scripts) Regards, MR R From alan at balclutha.org Sun Oct 16 10:05:54 2005 From: alan at balclutha.org (Alan Milligan) Date: Sun, 16 Oct 2005 20:05:54 +1000 Subject: [Fedora-livecd-list] shutil include patch Message-ID: <43522602.5090704@balclutha.org> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I'm updating against HEAD, and have a problem with shutil not being imported (and also a supposed fix to remove rsplit for us 2.4-challenged Pythonistas) - and thanks to Patrick for the anaconda preorder patch - maybe one day, this thing will actually work ;) Alan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDUiYBCfroLk4EZpkRAiadAKCQ49l4Rg1Ee6AZOeMCsW3C/bl/gwCgk1tI LNUAEZmMU2UHuMGr4zOLsqk= =OFOd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <4353D048.2010607@adelphia.net> I've seen a few LiveCDs that allow for a persistent home, I am curious if this could be possible with the Official Fedora Core LiveCD. The reason is of course we know that when the systems power is shut down the settings are lost. I know this can be done manually but we also know many LiveCD users do not know enough about the system to do this. A tool allowing the immediate mounting of an FAT32,Ext2,Ext3 partition under /home or /home/user would be something to look into. Other LiveCDs have this. This idea was suggested to me by a Fedora Core user in the UK. This would require I guess, unless further developed and integrated, an already available partition, that is formatted of course.

IRC isn't as useful as email due to timezone changes. Not everyone that might want to contribute is in Nth America. Email has the advantage that we can all participate even though the discussions can take longer. It also gives a lot more people the opportunity to listen (or is the term lurk :-) Glen.

A few days ago a user was curious if an Kadischi .rpm package existed yet, I personally do not know of one. What I have done is build a kadischi .rpm package using the CVS, and notified the user patching anaconda-runtime will still be neccessary. I am curious if you guys would be interested in having an .rpm package of kadischi built, say on the scale of every few weeks or every month until you find a package handler and maintainer.. I tested my own package (using --test), and made sure all files were packaged of course. This is question number one. Question two.. rpmbuild sorts out what we know as dependencies. According to rpmbuild, /bin/ash is a requirement, which it is, livecd-linuxrc is a /bin/ash shell script.. I am curious, since I do not see a Fedora Core 4 ash-package, if this will change or not, and if not, what to do about it if you are building .rpms of kadischi. I of course am running on a FC3 -> FC4 upgraded system, so I have /bin/ash. Please comment/respond/delete my email as neccessary.
