My Plan for things to do on the Workmeeting: (could and should be translated some time)
Was will ich tun
- Debian Java Pakete
- Pbuilder config für sid
- openjdk-6 versuchen zu bauen damit
- Auf Notebook eine VM mit Skolelinux installieren - mögliche Alternativen:
kvm (bevorzugt, aber Probleme mit dem .24er Kernel - blank screen - http://localhost:3000/todo/show/267 )
- virtualbox (doof wegen filebased Images, die man nicht austauschen kann mit anderen Systemen - keine Nutzung von LVM volumes)
- vmware (doof,weil unfrei, geht scheinbar nicht mit 2.6.24 Kernel)
- FAI Installationen für Skoelinux testen
- Nochmal Ronnies Konfigurations aus dem Wiki testen für standalone und die anderen systemtype, die geht - auch mal schauen, wie und wo ich diese Konfiguration in ein SCM bringen kann
- versuchen, einen main server hinzubekommen
- Cipux dev Konzept checken, kommentieren, ...
- Cipux und andere tools (Gosa, lwat) genauer unter die Lupe nehmen
- In Cipux gibt es jetzt taint und input validation scheinbar - was ist mit anderen Punkte, die mir vorliegen?
concrete tasks I have to do
- openjdk-6 building on sid
- install testhost debian-sid-buildhost
- create a sid config/base.tgz for my fai config
- debug cpu escalation problem with pbuilder for sid when running on etch
- build on other sid test host I have there
- try pbuilder and/or building in sid chroot on another machine
- install testhost debian-sid-buildhost
FAI for DebianEdu
put contents from page ?DebianEdu/HowTo/FaiInstallDebianEdu into debian-edu SVN
- Test install with this config from faitest-server-etch
- standalone and workstation and terminal server (those that should work already)
- main server
- check mauve packaging for Andreas
- download sources
- run in pbuilder
- debug
Learn about DebianEdu in general
- (network)architecture documentation
- read generic ldap documentation
- look at debianedu ldap profiles in detail
- admintool checking
take a deeper look at gosa - this might be interesting to look at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=402010
- take a deeper look at lwat
- take a deeper look at cipux - especially the remaining crticism points
- read cipux dev concept
Progress
2008-04-03
- created some wiki pages and cleaned up some others (for java and cdd, and the workmeetings) in the debian wiki
- add a contact link to the debian wiki frontpage which did not exist
tried to get the broken wiki:Self Interwiki linking fixed and got ignored and beeing laughed at by the helpful and constructive mr. weasel
- worked on getting a sid pbuilder instance running (which failed to build and work as intendet)
- tried to work around the various bugs in kvm/xen/Xwindows to get a sid virtual machine runinng for testing
2008-04-04
- kept on working on the openjdk sid build environment
- started to look at mauve(genome software) building problems for debian med
it seems as build depy are not resolved because some strange dependencies in sun-java packages - there is sun-java6-jre (6-05-1), but for some strange reason, sun-java6-jdk (6-05-1 ) on x86 depends on sun-java6-jre (= 6-04-2) [i386] - have to check another java build package. -> look at other, similar java packages to try to get it built.
Interesting thing:
I'm looking for ways that help me to chose between different virtualization solutions.
At the same time, I realized in these days, that I very much like the way of xen-tools to handle the disks - a filesystem is created directly inside a lvm volume, and a single partition (as opposed to a block device) is handed over to the guests.
I did believe it's not possible to reuse such lvm with partitions inside other virt solutions. But that's wrong - you can boot such a thing in qemu with:
henning@xnote:~$ sudo qemu -kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-6-686 -initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-6-686 -hda /dev/mapper/data-skolelinux--test--disk -append root=/dev/hda Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated
It might sound odd to use something that looks to qemu like a full block device as root filesystem - but it works, and it's only for my testing and development systems on the laptop. Fine.
Also found another interesting thing about deleting lvm volumes - sometimes, they are stil open and cannot be removed. dmsetup must be used to shut them down completely.
I also finally have some sid Xen VM's where I can, hopefully build openjdk-6 - let's see what happens...
(ambitious) plan for tomorrow
- start building openjdk
continue building mauve (http://gel.ahabs.wisc.edu/mauve/ it really needs another name, like mauve-genome, as mauve is already taken)
put stuff from ?DebianEdu/HowTo/FaiInstallDebianEdu into debian-edu svn, and test to install it into a vm
- get started with the fai-config-dir project
- setup the git repository - see mails from holger and Jonas
- put my stuff in it to seed the repository:
- rhel samples configspace
- my fai testing configspace
- the simple exmples
- single classes:
- XENU (and fix it accoring ti Thomas ideas)
- XEN_SERVER
- my normal configspace - check for secrets in there, then publish it
- look at cipux dev concept (other ldap stuff later)
2008-04-05
- build tests with openjdk until machine shutdown with overheating
- put ronny aasen's fai config for skolelinux into subversion, merged my own stuff into it
- discussed cipux dev concept
