Below is an email initiated by Jeffry Huang. Any thought/ideas for how to provide QE automated tests access to a booted Live Media system please pass them on.
Thanks Joe - - - Subject: Re: SSH issue for the PIT automation Date: Tue, 03 Feb 2009 16:26:00 +0800 From: jeffrey huang <[email protected]> To: Brenda Bai <Brenda.Bai at Sun.COM> References: <4987E282.3060307 at sun.com> Background: QE has a automated GUI test suite that runs under LiveCD/USB microroot. PIT would like to have a remote machine to control the test machine, that means automatically boot the test machine to microroot status, then automatically start test suite. But when current LiveCD/USB boot, it boots and logs into graphic X window, which can not be accessed by serial console, rsh, ssh. Requirement: For LiveCD/USB image, ssh access needs to be enabled after LiveCD/USB boot. And more it would be better to enable X access: by setting x11-server property 'options/tcp_listen' to true by default. Current the default value is false.
