Sysadmin/Add shell account

2012-10-29T20:44:41Z

Quidam: Added note about accents

'''Users looking for a Sugar Labs account should go to [[Service/Account]].'''

The account requests arrive to a support queue on our RT system ([[Machine/rt]]).

== Guidelines ==

Ask users to follow diligently the [[Service/shell#Requesting_a_shell_account]] procedure.

Users should briefly motivate their request. A sufficient justification could be:
"I have these Sugar-related files that I'd like to distribute on people.sugarlabs.org".

'''Shell accounts shouldn't be granted to untrusted individuals without referrals.'''
'''Shell accounts that are known to be unused should be disabled with <tt>system-userdel</tt>.'''

== Account creation on shell.sugarlabs.org ==

To create an account, become root on [[Machine/sunjammer]] and type:

system-useradd <username> <first_name> <last_name> <email>

* Note that accents in the first_name or last_name would break the script.
* '''NOTE: You have to become root with 'sudo -i'. Prefixing the command with sudo won't work because it doesn't switch $HOME to /root, which is necessary to make the ldap commands source <code>/root/.ldaprc</code>.'''

At some point the script will prompt you to paste the user's ssh key.
You can skip this part and edit ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys manually.

The procedure automatically sends a welcome email to the user.
The email is also copied to ~user/welcome, in case they loose the
original message.

Dextrose/Building

2012-03-30T17:39:22Z

Quidam: added missing dependencies to yum install command

<noinclude>{{TeamHeader|Dextrose|home=Dextrose|xbgColor=ffe792|join_label=Get Involved}}</noinclude>

== Dextrose build system ==

Dextrose uses [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OS_Builder olpc-os-builder], a tool create by OLPC to build official and customized system images. The Dextrose git repository contains, olpc-os-builder, local customizations specific to Dextrose, and fixes and enhancements waiting to be pushed upstream.

== Build host requirements ==

The Dextrose build system is known to work on '''Fedora 14 x86_64''' and '''Fedora 16 x86_64'''. The OS on the host system ''shouldn't'' matter because the build runs in a chroot environment. olpc-os-builder does not yet run on Ubuntu due to a missing dependency (bitfrost).

The initial build requires about '''700MB''' of rpm packages and Sugar activity bundles. The packages and bundles are cached for futures builds.

== Initial setup ==

* If sudo isn't configured to work with your account, add yourself to the '''wheel''' group. Alternatively, you can become root with <code>su -</code>.

* Install build dependencies (you need to be root to do this)

yum upgrade
yum install libtomcrypt-devel bitfrost crcimg make gcc mtd-utils python-imgcreate zip unzip zlib-devel lzma netpbm-progs git wget

* Install the olpc-bootanim-tools package:

rpm -i http://download.sugarlabs.org/dextrose/testing/dx3/rpms/x86_64/os/olpc-bootanim-tools-2.14-1.bernie1.fc16.x86_64.rpm

If you have a 32bit machine:

rpm -i http://download.sugarlabs.org/dextrose/testing/dx3/rpms/i386/os/olpc-bootanim-tools-2.14-1.bernie1.fc16.i686.rpm

Alternatively, you could rebuild the olpc-bootanim package from source:

yum install rpm-build netpbm-progs
wget http://download.sugarlabs.org/dextrose/testing/dx3/rpms/source/olpc-bootanim-2.14-1.bernie1.fc16.src.rpm
rpmbuild --rebuild olpc-bootanim-2.14-1.bernie1.fc16.src.rpm
rpm -U ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/*/olpc-bootanim-tools-*.rpm

* Checkout the Dextrose build system

git clone git://git.sugarlabs.org/dextrose/mainline.git dextrose

* Compile build helper programs

cd dextrose
make

* Generate initial sequence number for the builds (42 is just an example)

echo 42 >buildnr-dx

== Creating a build ==

* Become root and run the build system:

time sudo ./osbuilder.py config/dextrose3-xo1-nognome.ini

The initial build may take several hours, depending on available bandwidth.
Subsequent builds will take about 15-20 minutes on average desktop machines.

Upon completion, the new image will be available in <tt>build/output</tt>.
Now copy it on a USB stick and test it on your target.

=== Available variants ===

There's a set of configuration files for each variant of the images you can build. You only need to specify the top-level file (i.e. none of the <code>*-common.ini</code> files) to build an image:

;dextrose3-xo1-gnome.ini:
:Works on [[olpc:XO-1|XO-1]], includes Gnome. Not recommended unless you're running from an external SD card as the free space available on the internal NAND is too limited with Gnome installed.
;dextrose3-xo1-nognome.ini:
:Works on [[olpc:XO-1|XO-1]], does not include Gnome. This is the recommended image for XO-1s.
;dextrose3-xo1.5-gnome.ini:
:Works on [[olpc:XO-1.5|XO-1.5]] (including XO-1.5 [[olpc:OLPC_English_Non-membrane_Keyboard|HS]]), includes Gnome. Some teachers and older students seem to like Gnome, so you can trade off some of the free space that could be used by the Journal for the additional desktop environment.
;dextrose3-xo1.5-nognome.ini:
:Works on [[olpc:XO-1.5|XO-1.5]] (including XO-1.5 [[olpc:OLPC_English_Non-membrane_Keyboard|HS]]), doesn't include Gnome. More space for the Journal, so use this one if your users don't ask for Gnome and you haven't paid for a larger (i.e. > 4GB) SD card.
;dextrose3-xo1.75-gnome.ini:
:Experimental [[olpc:XO-1.75|XO-1.75]] image with Gnome.
;dextrose3-xo1.75-nognome.ini:
:Experimental [[olpc:XO-1.75|XO-1.75]] image without Gnome.

== Debugging ==

Because several build tools (olpc-os-builder, imgcreate and yum) run chrooted
and nested into each other, error output is often obscure or misleading.
Before digging into the code, try asking on IRC in case someone has already seen
the same problem.

== Publishing the images ==

Please do not publish signed builds unless they implement the [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Antitheft_HowTo OLPC anti-theft system].

== Customizing your build ==

olpc-os-builder is documented at
[http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/dextrose/repos/mainline/trees/master/doc/README README]
in the olpc-os-builder tree. The modules are documented in <tt>README</tt> files in the
[http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/dextrose/repos/mainline/trees/master/modules modules] directory.

=== Upstream Code ===

Dextrose is based on [http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-os-builder/ olpc-os-builder] by Daniel Drake. You can fetch the latest source code into your Dextrose repository:

git remote add olpc git://dev.laptop.org/projects/olpc-os-builder
git fetch olpc
git log olpc/master

=== Customizing the core RPMs ===

* Go to the <tt>rpms/PACKAGENAME</tt> in the dextrose tree

* Edit the spec file. Typically this involves adding a new patch, which is done by adding a <tt>PatchNN:</tt> tag and a corresponding <tt>%patchNN</tt> rule in <tt>%setup</tt>. Some of the intricacies of RPM spec files are unveiled in the [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines Fedora Packaging Guidelines].

* Increase the release number after each change.

=== building the Custom RPM ===

If you have a Fedora 11 i386 system, just type:

make i586

Otherwise, you need to build in a [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Projects/Mock mock] chroot:

make srpm
sudo mock -r fedora-11-i386 --resultdir=. --rebuild mypackage.src.rpm

=== Uploading the Custom RPM ===

* Upload rpm to a yum repository and add it to the ini file used by the OLPC OS builder.

* To automate this step, we have a rule <tt>make uploadrpm</tt> which points at the Dextrose repository. Edit <tt>rpms/common/Makefile.common</tt> or <tt>rpms/common/uploadrpm</tt> to retarget this rule to your repository.

=== Building custom kernels ===

$ git clone http://dev.laptop.org/git/olpc-2.6/
$ cd olpc-2.6
$ setarch i386 make ARCH=i386 xo_1-kernel-rpm

Trisquel On A Sugar Toast

2009-10-21T20:28:16Z

Quidam: SD cards support

Trisquel on a Sugar toast (TOAST from now on) is a live/installable iso image that can be run from a CD/DVD or be used to load a USB drive with data persistence. Some other advanced uses are described below.

==Main features==

[[File:Toast_boot_menu.png|200px|thumb|right|TOAST boot menu]]
{{TOCright}}
*Sugar 0.86.2 with the Fructose and Honey activities.
*Built on top of Trisquel 3.0 (based on Ubuntu 9.04), making it 100% free.
*395MB iso image for i386 PC's. An amd64 version is available, but not published as it might make distribution a little more complicated while providing almost no advantages.
*30 languages included (English as default):
**ar bn ca de el en es eu fa fr gl he hi it ja mg mn nb ne nl pt_PT ru si sl sq sv tr ur vi zh_CN
*Graphical boot splash with translated options menu
*Graphical USB-creator tool built in
*Sugar-style artwork

==Download==
The latest snapshot can be found here:
* http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_3.0-LATEST_i686.iso
**Use http://trisquel.info/es/project/issues to report bugs

==Install to disk==

You can use TOAST live from a removable media, or perform a permanent install as you do with any GNU/Linux distro. You can select "Install Triquel" in the main boot menu to do so. If you already started a live session, you can manually launch the installer by running "ubiquity" in the terminal activity.

==Create a USB thumb drive==
A Live USB thumb drive runs faster and allows the user to keep the data and settings for the next run. To get that, download the iso and burn it on a blank CD. Start a Live session with it, plug your flash drive and open the terminal activity. Run the command usb-creator and follow the instructions to configure your USB drive. If it is FAT formated (the most usual format for these units), the data on it will not be erased, and will remain accessible.

===Live CD persistence===

You can achieve user data persistence by loading TOAST from a handy USB drive, but you can also use a regular Live CD for that, and it will work in systems with no USB-boot capabilities. You just need to pass the "persistent" parameter to the Live CD kernel (pressing F4 in the boot menu) and have a ext2 (ext3 and 4 will work too) partition labeled "live-rw" available in any disk. It can be a USB flash drive too.

Any data in the /home directory will be stored in the live-rw partition; if you need to install a persistent file outside /home, as a config file or a program, or even install some deb packages, you just need to label the partition "casper-rw" instead. For normal Sugar, use "live-rw".

This method is useful to save space in the thumb drive for persistence data, and also because the persistence partition can be mounted and accessed from other computers. It can be used to have live persistent sessions in systems that cannot boot from USB, but this will work faster if you use the method described next.

===USB load helper===

Some computers -like Apple's- cannot boot an operating system from a thumb drive, and in some cases the computer is not configured to do so and the user doesn't have the privileges or knowledge to do that, and a CD is the only method for booting a system. As USB images run faster and can provide integrated persistence, you might want to use the Live CD to load just the kernel and run the live session from the faster flash drive instead. You just need to create a Live USB drive using the method described above, and boot the computer with both the CD and the USB drive inserted. Set the computer to boot from the CD, and it will load the kernel and search for USB drives to continue booting from them.

===Easy virtualized images===

The above methods can also be used in a virtualization application like VirtualBox or KVM. You just need to start a live session using the TOAST iso, format the virtual disk with ext3, label it "live-rw" and reboot. Since then, the virtual disk will store the persistent data. If a new TOAST iso is released, you just need to replace the image attached to your virtualization system.

===SD cards support===

Using a USB SD card reader you should be able to use the usb-creator tool to load the live image into a SD card. That will allow you to boot the persistent live system in a XO or netbook, or install TOAST in its hard drive. It should also work with other card formats, as long as the computer is able to boot from them.

==Updating==

To get the latest version of the Sugar activities, just open the updater in the user settings window. To update the Trisquel system underneath, open a terminal and run this commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This procedure will also update the Fructose activities, and it will no interfere with the Sugar updater in any way.

==Changelog==

Trisquel On A Sugar Toast

2009-10-20T15:44:50Z

Quidam: /* Changelog */ 20091020

Trisquel on a Sugar toast (TOAST from now on) is a live/installable iso image that can be run from a CD/DVD or be used to load a USB drive with data persistence. Some other advanced uses are described below.

==Main features==

[[File:Toast_boot_menu.png|200px|thumb|right|TOAST boot menu]]
{{TOCright}}
*Sugar 0.86.2 with the Fructose and Honey activities.
*Built on top of Trisquel 3.0 (based on Ubuntu 9.04), making it 100% free.
*430MB iso image for i386 PC's. An amd64 version is available, but not published as it might make distribution a little more complicated while providing almost no advantages.
*30 languages included (English as default):

==Install to disk==

You can use TOAST live from a removable media, or perform a permanent install as you do with any GNU/Linux distro. You can select "Install Triquel" in the main boot menu to do so. If you already started a live session, you can manually launch the installer by running "ubiquity" in the terminal activity.

==Create a USB thumb drive==
A Live USB thumb drive runs faster and allows the user to keep the data and settings for the next run. To get that, download the iso and burn it on a blank CD. Start a Live session with it, plug your flash drive and open the terminal activity. Run the command usb-creator and follow the instructions to configure your USB drive. If it is FAT formated (the most usual format for these units), the data on it will not be erased, and will remain accessible.

===Live CD persistence===

You can achieve user data persistence by loading TOAST from a handy USB drive, but you can also use a regular Live CD for that, and it will work in systems with no USB-boot capabilities. You just need to pass the "persistent" parameter to the Live CD kernel (pressing F4 in the boot menu) and have a ext2 (ext3 and 4 will work too) partition labeled "live-rw" available in any disk. It can be a USB flash drive too.

Any data in the /home directory will be stored in the live-rw partition; if you need to install a persistent file outside /home, as a config file or a program, or even install some deb packages, you just need to label the partition "casper-rw" instead. For normal Sugar, use "live-rw".

This method is useful to save space in the thumb drive for persistence data, and also because the persistence partition can be mounted and accessed from other computers. It can be used to have live persistent sessions in systems that cannot boot from USB, but this will work faster if you use the method described next.

===USB load helper===

Some computers -like Apple's- cannot boot an operating system from a thumb drive, and in some cases the computer is not configured to do so and the user doesn't have the privileges or knowledge to do that, and a CD is the only method for booting a system. As USB images run faster and can provide integrated persistence, you might want to use the Live CD to load just the kernel and run the live session from the faster flash drive instead. You just need to create a Live USB drive using the method described above, and boot the computer with both the CD and the USB drive inserted. Set the computer to boot from the CD, and it will load the kernel and search for USB drives to continue booting from them.

===Easy virtualized images===

The above methods can also be used in a virtualization application like VirtualBox or KVM. You just need to start a live session using the TOAST iso, format the virtual disk with ext3, label it "live-rw" and reboot. Since then, the virtual disk will store the persistent data. If a new TOAST iso is released, you just need to replace the image attached to your virtualization system.

==Updating==

To get the latest version of the Sugar activities, just open the updater in the user settings window. To update the Trisquel system underneath, open a terminal and run this commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This procedure will also update the Fructose activities, and it will no interfere with the Sugar updater in any way.

[[File:trisquel_logo.png]]

[http://trisuqel.info/en Trisquel] GNU/Linux is a fully free operating system [http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html endorsed] by the FSF. It has an [http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-edu educational edition], based on Ubuntu LTS, and also a stand alone Live/Installable image for CD and USB drives, based on the latest Ubuntu version. More info: http://trisquel.info/en/trisquel-sugar

==Live image==
You can download the (430MB) iso image from here:
*http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_3.0-LATEST_i686.iso

To create a live USB disk with user data persistence, you can burn the image in a CD and use it to start a live session. Then plug the USB unit, open the terminal, and run "usb-creator". A launcher application is [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4216 coming].

The usb-creator helper is also included in the Trisquel (and Ubuntu) desktop applications. If you use a different GNU/Linux distribution or Windows, you can use [http://aligunduz.org/FUSBi/ FUSBi] instead.

==Installing Sugar on Trisquel 2.2 LTS==
To install the Sugar desktop you will need to add the repository to your apt configuration running this
echo "deb http://us.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel sugar-robur main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
Now you can install the sugar-platform package using the synaptic package manager or by running
sudo aptitude install sugar-platform

You can now log out of your session and login into Sugar. If your computer is a LTSP server, it would be serving Sugar already.

===Configure a Trisquel edu LTSP server===
You can follow the instructions in the [http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/configure-ltsp-server Trisquel wiki].

==Installing Sugar on Trisquel 3.0==
You can install Sugar with the above method, but using this repository line instead:
echo "deb http://us.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel sugar-dwyn main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update

==Create a USB thumb drive==
A Live USB thumb drive runs faster and allows the user to keep the data and settings for the next run. To get that, download the iso and burn it on a blank CD. Start a Live session with it, plug your flash drive and open the terminal activity. Run the command usb-creator and follow the instructions to configure your USB drive. If it is FAT formated -the most usual format for this units-, the data on it will not be erased, and will remain accessible.

==Advanced uses==

===Live CD persistence===

You can achieve user data persistence by loading TOAST from a handy USB drive, but you can also use a regular Live CD for that, and it will work in systems with no USB-boot capabilities. You just need to pass the "persistent" parameter to the Live CD kernel -pressing F4 in the boot menu-, and have a ext2 (ext3 and 4 will work to) partition labeled "live-rw" available in any disk. It can be a USB flash drive too.

Any data in the /home directory will be stored in the live-rw partition, if you need to install a persistent file outside /home, as a config file or a program, or even install some deb packages, you just need to label the partition "casper-rw" instead. For normal Sugar use,

This method is useful to save space in the thumb drive for persistence data, and also because the persistence partition can be mounted and accessed from other computers. It can be used to have live persistent sessions in systems that cannot boot from USB, but this will work faster if you use the method described next.

===USB load helper===

Some computers -like Apple's- cannot boot an operating system from a thumb drive, and in some cases the computer is not configured to do so and the user doesn't have the privileges or knowledge to do that, and a CD is the only method for booting a system. As USB images run faster and can provide integrated persistence, you might want to use the Live CD to load just the kernel and run the live session from the faster flash drive instead. You just need to create a Live USB drive using the method described above, and boot the computer with both the CD and the USB drive inserted. Set the computer to boot from the CD, and it will load the kernel and search for USB drives to continue booting from them.

===Easy virtualized images===

The above methods can also be used in a virtualization application like VirtualVox or KVM. You just need to start a live session using the TOAST iso, format the virtual disk with ext3, label it "live-rw" and reboot. Since then, the virtual disk will store the persistent data. If a new TOAST iso is released, you just need to replace the image attached to your virtualization system.

==Updating==

To get the latest version of the Sugar activities, just open the updater in the user settings window. To update the Trisquel system underneath, open a terminal and run this commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This procedure will also update the Fructose activities, and it will no interfere with the Sugar updater in any way.

[[File:trisquel_logo.png]]

[http://trisuqel.info/en Trisquel] GNU/Linux is a fully free operating system [http://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html endorsed] by the FSF. It has an [http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-edu educational edition], based on Ubuntu LTS, and also a stand alone Live/Installable image for CD and USB drives, based on the latest Ubuntu version. More info: http://trisquel.info/en/trisquel-sugar

==Live image==
You can download the (430MB) iso image from here:
*http://devel.trisquel.info/sugar/trisquel-sugar_3.0-LATEST_i686.iso

To create a live USB disk with user data persistence, you can burn the image in a CD and use it to start a live session. Then plug the USB unit, open the terminal, and run "usb-creator". A launcher application is [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4216 coming].

The usb-creator helper is also included in the Trisquel (and Ubuntu) desktop applications. If you use a different GNU/Linux distribution or Windows, you can use [http://aligunduz.org/FUSBi/ FUSBi] instead.

==Installing Sugar on Trisquel 2.2 LTS==
To install the Sugar desktop you will need to add the repository to your apt configuration running this
echo "deb http://us.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel sugar-robur main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
Now you can install the sugar-platform package using the synaptic package manager or by running
sudo aptitude install sugar-platform

You can now log out of your session and login into Sugar. If your computer is a LTSP server, it would be serving Sugar already.

==Installing Sugar on Trisquel 3.0==
You can install Sugar with the above method, but using this repository line instead:
echo "deb http://us.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel sugar-dwyn main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
