[PATCH 1/2] gnu: Add behave.

[Eric Bavier]

Re: System installation from a USB stick

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hello!

I’ve uploaded a USB installation image for x86_64 for testing:

  http://www.fdn.fr/~lcourtes/software/guix/gnu-usb-install-20140629.x86_64.xz
  SHA1: d36e70d25b81b734fa9558a5446fabb96489ec3b
  (100 MiB)

It works like this:

  1. Run ‘xz -d gnu-usb-install-20140629.x86_64.xz’.

  2. Copy it as is to a USB stick that of 1GiB or more:
   dd if=gnu-usb-install-20140629.x86_64 of=/dev/sdX
 where sdX is the device corresponding to the USB stick.

Then you can boot on the USB stick.  There’s a bit of documentation on
tty2, but it lacks what follows.  ;-)

To install the system, you would:

  1. Configure the network, by running ‘dhclient eth0’ for instance.
 Normally udev automatically loads device drivers (e.g., my laptop
 uses e1000e for Ethernet), but since it’s a small config kernel, it
 may miss drivers for your system, in which case you’re screwed.

  2. Partition, format etc. the target drive; the image includes Parted,
 fdisk, and e2fsprogs.

  3. Write an OS configuration file, say, config.scm (the image only has
 GNU Zile as the editor.)  A minimal config looks like this:

   (use-modules (gnu) (gnu system grub))

   (operating-system
 (host-name "foo")
 (timezone "Europe/Paris")
 (locale "en_US.UTF-8")
 (bootloader (grub-configuration (device "/dev/sdX")))
 (file-systems
   (list (file-system
   (device "/dev/sdX1")
   (mount-point "/")
   (type "ext4")

   4. Mount the target root file system as /mnt, say.

   5. Run ‘guix system init config.scm /mnt’ (add ‘--no-grub’ if you
  don’t want to install GRUB.)

   6. Unmount /mnt, reboot, and cross fingers.

There are various limitations, so be indulgent.  Notably, the kernel has
few drivers.  The image is insanely big due to
<http://bugs.gnu.org/17853>.  Swap partitions, dm-crypt’d devices aren’t
supported yet.

Still, I would very much like feedback about actual attempts to use
that, about the general procedure, or anything else.

The image was built with

  guix system disk-image gnu/system/install.scm --image-size=800MiB

as of commit 1ddbd9f.

Hello,

Applied.  Thanks, and welcome aboard.  ;-)

I changed it to ‘license:gpl2+’, because all the source files carry the
“or later” clause.

Under the assumption that you’re the copyright holder, I’ve added this
line to mpd.scm:

Nice!  Comments below:

Remember this field must be either a  object or a list thereof
(the one above is a list of symbols.)  So change it to:

  (license (list license:gpl2 license:gpl3))

Also, please add a comment stating what this means exactly: is it
dual-licensed?  Does it mean that some files are GPLv2-only and others
are GPLv3-only (which would be a problem)?

Does it mean some files are GPLv2-or-later and others are
GPLv3-or-later?  In that case, the value should be ‘license:gpl3+’.

In my experience day time is most productive. Unless we end up with a
group of interested people. If you can pop in for a few hours, I'll
try and organise a gathering with which we can continue later. Is that
an option? Or if you come by say 3pm? At worst you end up with me, but
I expect more interest. I'll see if we can get interested parties on
the group list this week.

Oh, neat.  Yes, I find that using a general purpose language like Guile
is much better than inventing a special language.

Since it's a Wednesday, I'll be working at the FSF office during the
day.  Does the hackathon continue into the night?  If I can be useful, I
can try to join in after work.

> Could you elaborate more on how Guix relates to this event?

For biomedical and biological purposes, Cloudbiolinux packages
software. Mostly .deb, homebrew and ad hoc scripts. I have been a Nix
fan for a long time and I think Guix is just the right way forward
(Nix expressions are somehow a little too foreign for many people, I
have found).

It would make sense to move some of the Cloudbiolinux related
packaging to Guix. There will be quite a few good people who are
working on software deployment, so please hop over if you can! There
are 50-60 programmers coming to the hackathon.
