NFS export
Hi, I am trying to export NFS over a live filesystem (aufs), and I get this error: does not support nfs export I made the following actions in the Live CD chroot: #Patch the aufs module at-get install module-assistant m-a get aufs m-a unpack aufs cd /usr/src/modules/aufs #From Cyril Brulebois post sed -i -e '2 iexport CONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT=y' debian/conf.mk sed -i -e 's/ -I/ -DCONFIG_AUFS_EXPORT -I/' debian/conf.mk m-a build -O aufs m-a install -O aufs #configure /etc/exports in Live CD /var/chroot/ *(ro,async,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,nfsid=0) #boot option union=aufs # in booted live CD /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart = does not support nfs export If someone has an idea, Regards, Oliv -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: NFS export
/var/chroot/ *(ro,async,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check,nfsid=0) Try changing nfsid to fsid. The make_pelican script at http://pareto.uab.es/mcreel/PelicanHPC/download/ has an example of a working NFS export of an aufs filesystem.

Re: Net (PXE) boot from a two interfaces computer
Hello Andreas and Debian-Live folks, I've updated the script a bit, as I found that Debian-Live's init script don't really use the initramfs.conf file to know if it's a NFS net boot, but use kernel command line options instead. As a side note, the lh_chroot_hacks script adds a stanza to /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf about Net boot : it's useless, as the initrd is already generated (when live-initramfs pachage is installed) and I think we could remove this hack.

IIRC it has to be != 0, at least I've been using fsid=1 for a long time and everything went fine. You may want to check the contents of /sys/fs/aufs/config to ensure you have NFS support enabled. You should also note that there are some constraints on some patches (needed to be enabled or disabled) depending on your kernel version.

Re: ArtistX 0.6 question: rewrite wiki and manual
Hi all, time to report back! ArtistX 0.6 seems running fine, it was a 3 day attempt but at the end I got it. :-) Here's what I did (I'm preparing the tutorial): A) create graphics customizations: - create a 640x480 splash.png image for the isolinux background, put into config/binary_local-includes/isolinux/data/ - customize the README.html, README.mirrors.html cdrom files and put them into config/binary_local-includes/ - create a 1024x768 background-color.png image for the splashy background, put into config/chroot_local-includes/etc/splashy/themes/moreblue-orbit - create a 1024x768 moreblue-orbit-wallpaper.svg (infact is a jpeg just renamed to .svg), put into config/chroot_local-includes/usr/share/images/desktop-base/ B) create a starting ISO (adding only splashy, splashy themes, kcontrol, konqueror, tango-icons-theme as a start to customize more after): 1) lh_config in an ARTISTX_0.6 directory somewhere on my Desktop 2) change config accordingly to my parameters (I'll try to keep online the config dir, which is the best place on Debian Live website? - or I could upload it on ArtistX website and link there). I change many things, most notably enabling the interactive build for later customizations. 3) lh_build 4) running live I install GNOME and KDE themes, enable the Debian Menu (otherwise many apps wont show in the normal Gnome menu and customize the Desktop (except for the background), copy /home/artistx/ into /tmp , compress it, send it to my building machine and put relevant files (.gnome2, .kde, .config, .local ...) it into config/chroot_local-includes/etc/skel/ C) create the final ISO 1) lh_build 2) when it has finished installing Gnome (gnome-full list) or Kde (kde-full list) it brings me to the prompt where I apt-get install all multimedia software 3) apt-get clean 4) update-menus 5) update-rc.d -f service-name remove to remove unnecessary starting services (like mysql or apache2 brought in by other software) 6) exit to start the building process That's all, few problems: 1) if I use the config/chroot file for installing a lot of software (2000) I will get a xargs error about cp not able to copy because of an Argument list too long. So I enable the interactive build and apt-get from inside the chroot. 2) One thing it took me a long time to fix is that installing the motion software will prevent Debian Live from creating the ArtistX user with GID 1000, since motion is creating exactly the same GID for its user. What can be done? Ask the motion Debian packager to change the GID? 3) For some reason the file used for splashy background and Desktop background seems to default to the MoreBlue-Orbit theme 4) I don't know how to write a script so I'm out of luck for istant NTFS support, which needs the user ArtistX to be added to the fuse group. 5) The installer is not working: I enable the live installer, but when I try both Graphical and Text install I get a message after cdrom detection saying that the kernel modules could not be found, so the installation cannot continue. I think this is something regarding some modules debs name being too long for the ISO standard and being converted to shorter names just before .iso creation (after squash file creation). To whom should I report? That's all guys, hope it's useful infos for Debian Live newbies/not so advanced users like me :-) I will turn all this into a tutorial, if you wish.

Modify live user password?
Greetings, In the past I had used the info in the FAQ http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/FAQ#head-5bb88fb88b407750f2f8ca0c02ca59b18e163bca to change the default user password from live to something else but for some reason this is not now working for me. I am probably missing something, but could someone confirm? Thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
