Description
buildslave-fedora-10-64bit is a 64bit VM running Fedora 10 for the BuildBot network.
Installation
Base system
sudo virt-install --ram=512 --name=buildslave-fedora-10-64bit --arch=x86_64 \ --vcpus=1 --hvm --accelerate --disk pool=qcow-images,size=10 \ --network=network:default --vnc \ --location=http://fedora.mirror.garr.it/mirrors/fedora/linux/releases/10/Fedora/x86_64/os
This will create a new VM and run the Fedora installer inside it, with the "console" attached via virt-view. If you don't have a US keyboard virt-view won't work properly for you and you have to use VNC directly:
- close virt-view
- Determine the VNC port used for this VM (VNC port = 5900 + number shown by virsh, e.g. 5905 for :5):
sudo virsh vncdisplay buildslave-debian-squeeze-64bit
- Set up ssh port forwarding for the VNC port:
ssh -L 5930:localhost:<vnc port> -N <user>@bender.sugarlabs.org
- Start VNC client:
vncviewer :30
Config options:
- buildslave-fedora-10-64bit.sugarlabs.org
- Etc/UTC
- default disk layout
- manual layout, swap 512M, / ext3 max size
- no tasks
- F10 and F10 updates repo
Start again after installation:
sudo virsh start buildslave-fedora-10-64bit
Reconnect VNC client:
vncviewer :30
- User administrator, root password
- don't send profile
After installation finished:
- use virt-viewer to send Alt+Ctrl+F2
- use VNC client to log in as root
- install packages for next steps:
yum install openssh-server git
