[qubes-users] Small Templates

2018-04-16 Thread Drew White
Has anyone managed to work out a miniature template that works for Qubes with 
all the additions?

I'm just talking about super small versions.

Are there any versions that are nice and small?

Has anyone got pfsense working properly with Qubes?

it is minimal in what it thinks is minimal, but it is still not nice and small, 
or what I asked about "super small"

You could take a look what is installed on a Qubes fedora-minimal template
using dnf list installed and then remove everything you don't want.

Further reading:
https://docs-old.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/25/html/System_Administrators_Guide/sec-Listing_Packages.html

Or - in case you have already a running version of your preferred
super-minimal (I think the name "fedora-nano" or "fedora-core" would be
great) - you check which packages are installed there and compare it to the
fedora-minimal template, then you know which packages you need to look at.
Make sure not to remove important qubes packages.

Out of interest:
What do you thing is the benefit of running a minimal fedora minimal?
Is it because of storage/performance capacity or because you think that
this will ensure additional security?

Pretty much, remove anything and it removes the Qubes stuff.

I don't want an insecure system that crashes every 5 seconds, so I want one hat 
has no SystemD. Until then, smaller template.

ya but the thing about Qubes is the software is considered insecure in the 
first place.   and if your system is crashing every 5 seconds thats super 
suspicious.  and beauty about Qubes is being able to quickly wipe and reinstall 
a vm or template.   the more super custom you go the more tedious that becomes.


as far as no systemD well thats gonna be super tough.  It seems you do alot of 
tough work setting up your Qubes but it seems qubes is designed to be default 
and universal in mind.   but its funny seeing other fsf guys on the forums who 
don't want secure boot but not mentioning how much worse all software is.   I 
mean I don't know what your reasons are for not trusting systemD,  but the same 
 fingers are in all the gui's prolly too.

Exactly, but I still want less software so I have better software on there as I 
would build my own software to take over most of the functions.
I'm also replacing most of the python scripts too, because they are so 
cumbersome it's not funny.

It isn't crashing literally every 5 seconds, it's an exaggeration. Well, for 
most of my PCs, I did have one that crashed when starting EVERY TIME.

Yeah, SystemD is just insecure and super vulnerable. When SystemD crashes, the 
whole PC freezes. That's why init and sysv was so much better, because they 
started everything properly and separately. They did it the right way.

Well, we can only hope that people realise and thus start moving back away from 
SystemD in the near future.

It pisses me off whenever you post because you always post destructive /
nonconstructive nonsense such as this one post above this line (among
many).  You're using Fedora / Debian templates.  They use systemd (learn
to spell it, it isn't SystemD, that means a completely different thing
related to an economic population in Southeast Asia).  Deal with reality
or use something else.  And, quite frankly, I don't know what the fuck
is wrong with your computer -- I haven't had a system crash in months
while using Qubes OS, and I haven't had a systemd-related crash in Y E A
R S.  Literally YEARS since a systemd bug caused a kernel panic (because
that's how a systemd crash looks like, it's an init-related panic).

You, Drew, specifically you, always have complaints, but almost never
ever do you have solutions.  Most of your blame-assigning is entirely
fabricated and political.

So how about you start coding something that will replace the work
others have done, and then post it as a pull request?  Maybe if you
don't want to code, then you can plonk a good amount of cash for people
to code what you want.  But I, sure as iron, do not want you to continue
polluting and poisoning the environment with your useless complaints and
non-suggestions.  Every time I open the mailing list, you're there,
making useless comments or destructive quips.  I'm so, so turned off by
your destructive participation.

Thank you in advance for your courtesy in either stopping your posting
or contributing working code that (1) will be useful to others (2) will
be accepted either in Qubes OS or upstream (3) will be less whiny and
more constructive.

Enough!

1. Read what I say.
2. Understand what I say.
3. How about you reply constructively like I ask about things instead of just 
attack like you do.
4. systemd is always running, it monitors everything, you obviously know 
nothing about systemd because you say it is ONLY relating to init.
5. If others actually asked questions then they would get helpful answers.
6. I would contribute if it was Pascal instead of bloated Python, which I don't 
know enough about.
7. I am constructive, but people, like you, just don't read what I say the way 
I said it and mean it and so you take it the wrong way.
8. Nothing is wrong with any of my computers, there is something wrong with 
systemd.
8. I am building a non systemd version, but not knowing enough about python YET 
it is taking time, but I am putting in the time, since very few others in Qubes 
Forum here reply to most things. Or else they aren't coders.
9. Start reading Rudd-O, you always have had issues with me, and attacked me 
just because you wanted to. So go away and stop replying just to attack me.
10. Would be appreciated if you pull your head out of your arse, pull your head 
in, and just start replying normally.

Take your own advice, be constructive not destructive. All you did was attack, 
all you had to do was politely correct my error from other peoples mis-spelling 
of it. All you EVER do is attack me.

I complain because I provide solutions and they are not taken.
All I get told is that they aren't an issue when they are.
Even when I give logs and proof I get told it isn't a bug even when it is.

So I complain, and I don't try to give evidence or help or anything until it is 
requested.

You should have left me blocked.

Now block me again and get the hell out of my life.

FWIW I've been using Qubes *exclusively* for the past 2.5 years and I
probably had less than half a dozen crashes over that period, which is
consistent with what I had with plain Fedora before (and then the
crashes would happen because of exotic stuff like undocking/docking the
laptop while suspended, with many USB devices plugged and additional
screens, so they are probably not related to Qubes).

Except the usual mail/web surfing/office stuff I transcode videos, use
windows VMs with heavy CAD and 3d modeling software, or Fedora VMs with
QGIS and huge data sets, and I never had a system crash because of high
resource usage. Curious about you mean by "pushing hard", and if you
tried the same usage pattern that you get crashes with on plain fedora.

Re- systemd: I never had a crash related to it - be it on my Qubes
install or on the servers I administrate. With my experience as a
sysadmin I can tell you that systemd is a reliable, well thought out
collection of programs and thanks to it I don't have to write kludges to
work around deficiencies in sysV anymore. It takes a bit of time to
learn though, which is probably why people criticize it (leaving aside
conspiracy theories).

I just hate that systemd being put into linux makes linux like windows.
That is the issue that made me start to hate it in the first place.

Yeah, it isn't very Laptop-Docking friendly (yet). But my issues are mainly 
with a workstation. My Laptop doesn't do it because I shut it down every night 
because of docking issues with Qubes.

Normally Qubes runs fine. But so much drive space is used. That's why I wanted 
some small templates without the "crap" that just consumes resources. The 
minimal template still has a lot. 

So I was just hoping for a real minimal version of things. That was all this 
thread was about.

I have 18 guests running most of the time these days on my workstation.
That includes the sys-net, sys-firewall, anon-gw, and many more.
They are always doing things and consuming RAM and CPU.
For windows I run XP through to 10. For testing purposes.
I have compilers running for compiling software.
I have browsers open running things from Debian and Fedora and Whonix.
I have 90% of my RAM used most of the time.
My CPU sits high usage, 75%+.

I've had my system freeze,and I wonder why. 
I reboot and check my logs, and it's something that caused systemd to just stop 
working. and that was a bland install, and systemd stopped. everything runs 
under sysstemd, where it used to be everything was separate. so if systemd 
stops, everything stops. that is windows methodology. (That's when i lost 
interest in systemd and it has not changed.

I see that you're upset with systemd but if I were you I'd try to debug
the cause of your problem and submit an issue/bug report so that fellow
users don't run into the same problem.

As a side note I didn't test to kill systemd (PID 1) but I sort of
expect that the whole system would go down if PID 1 "stops". It's not
different from sysV's PID 1 init.
