Is there a precompiled chroot that I can use as a starting point? 14:04 < rxr> you could untar the pkg tarballs from the ISO and chroot into that 14:08 < |beowulf|> ok, I'll try that 14:08 < |beowulf|> thanks :) 14:08 < rxr> your're welcome 14:08 < rxr> just ask if you get stuck or need orientation 14:31 -!- itsu [n=user@i538775C7.versanet.de] has joined #t2 14:31 < itsu> good evening 15:06 < rxr> hey 15:08 < itsu> just looking for you rxr 15:09 < itsu> i would like to ask if you could provide initramfs , as i need it for thinclients ? 15:09 < itsu> pxe boot ... 15:10 < itsu> i could not figure out how to do this from a livecd target 15:10 < rxr> hm 15:10 < rxr> I do not have much free time these days :-( 15:10 < itsu> i think the problem is that the root device has to be /dev/ram0 or thelike 15:10 < itsu> thats okay 15:11 < itsu> maybe you could put it on the todo list ? 15:11 < rxr> have it already 15:11 < itsu> allright 15:11 < rxr> maybe I have a project with pxe comming up anyway, ... :-) 15:11 < itsu> maybe some hints i would investigate further myself 15:11 < itsu> cool ! :-) 15:12 < rxr> maybe you follow some syslinux / grub PXE boot howto, or aren't those too helpful ? 15:13 < itsu> problem is that after some basic boot stuff the kernel hangs 15:13 < itsu> i think it is the remount of the rootfs 15:13 < itsu> in rw mode 15:13 < itsu> i'll try to get into this with livescripts 15:14 < itsu> thanx anyways , thanx for your great work !!! 15:15 < itsu> see you around :-) an have a nice we 15:17 < rxr> cu have fun 16:00 -!- itsu [n=user@i538775C7.versanet.de] has left #t2 [] 16:23 -!- jeffdamet1 is now known as jeffdameth 17:28 -!- jeffdamet1 [n=jeff@dyndsl-080-228-184-238.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has joined #t2 17:29 < |beowulf|> hm, this is getting complicated... 17:30 < |beowulf|> [root root]# chroot . /bin/bash 17:30 < |beowulf|> cannot set up thread-local storage: set_thread_area failed when setting up thread-local storage 17:36 < rxr> ouh 17:36 < rxr> that is an old kernel then, hm ? 17:42 < |beowulf|> very old 17:42 < |beowulf|> 2.2.16 17:42 < |beowulf|> the system is so old that I cannot even build a recent kernel on it 17:45 -!- jeffdameth [n=jeff@dyndsl-085-016-232-253.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)] 17:51 < rxr> .oO 17:51 < rxr> edit your bootloader to load the t2 kernel from the cd :.. 17:52 < |beowulf|> the boot loader on this machine is part of the BIOS 17:52 < rxr> what eaxtly do you work on ? 17:52 < |beowulf|> it's a sun cobalt qube 3 17:52 < rxr> ah, nice 17:54 < |beowulf|> right now I'm trying to make it boot the system I intended to use as a chroot 17:54 < |beowulf|> the last message I get is Warning: unable to open an initial console. 17:54 < rxr> hm 18:01 < |beowulf|> ok, dev is empty, this of course cannot work... 18:04 < |beowulf|> hmmm -- what's the root password in the chroot? 18:05 < rxr> none 18:05 < rxr> it should be st during install 18:05 < rxr> you could copy'n paste a hash into etc/shadow 18:05 < rxr> btw. /dev is empty due u/dev putting notes there at runtime 18:05 < rxr> can you load an initd ? 18:05 < rxr> from your BIOS boot loader thing ? 18:06 < |beowulf|> not sure, but creating /dev/{console,null,zero} solved the problem 18:31 -!- Enqlave [n=stealth@sourcemage/guru/stealth] has quit ["Dont wait to die to find paradise..."] 18:34 -!- Enqlave [n=stealth@sourcemage/guru/stealth] has joined #t2 19:16 -!- sparc-kly [n=mubex@adsl-64-237-252-6.prtc.net] has quit ["http://www.mubex.net"] 19:16 < rxr> |beowulf|: and, works ? 19:30 < |beowulf|> I'm a little frustrated right now, will continue later ;-) 21:08 -!- Enqlave [n=stealth@sourcemage/guru/stealth] has quit ["Dont wait to die to find paradise..."] 21:51 -!- DeeKey [n=denis@84-50-20-241-dsl.kjj.estpak.ee] has joined #t2 21:51 < DeeKey> Hello world :) 22:00 < rxr> hi DeeKey 22:08 -!- Enqlave [n=stealth@sourcemage/guru/stealth] has joined #t2 22:10 < DeeKey> rxr: thank you for your help :) Very stupid problem. I have just forgotten about overlays... 22:14 < DeeKey> hmm. XEN is dependent on number of programs an libs. Should I put it to compilation later in the queue ? Or else? 22:23 < rxr> which programs and libs ? 22:25 < DeeKey> I will make a copy paste... 22:26 < DeeKey> http://pastebin.com/m39129240 22:26 < DeeKey> zlib, x11 headers 22:27 < DeeKey> but zlib is included to the build... But it is only compiled durong phase 3 and 9.. 22:28 < rxr> ah - not they aren't 22:29 < rxr> if you want to cross compile enable the cross option and those package marekd CROSS are enabled for stage 1 22:44 < DeeKey> How to turn it on? There is not setting for it in config... Beside, do you really think it will help to solve the problem? Some libraries (python and crypto) are compiled before. So the xen was able to find them... 22:45 < rxr> then indeed the xen priority might be the problem - feel free to adaopt 22:45 < rxr> that 22:45 < rxr> for the cross compilation there is this "Cross compile between architectures" or so option, wired to CONFIG_CROSS 22:45 < rxr> SDECFG_CROSSBUILD 22:53 -!- jeffdamet1 [n=jeff@dyndsl-080-228-184-238.ewe-ip-backbone.de] has left #t2 [] 23:10 < DeeKey> how to get headers?
