Also works on logout of sugar-runner login to sugar note sugar-runner settings for jabber.sugarlabs.org did not transfer and had to be re-entered to see XO's in F1 network neighborhood (T-400 wireless)

livedcd-tools installed in mounted soas f30 usb


SoaS 30 does come with the livecd-tools installed and the livecd-iso-to-disk installation script is copied to the /LiveOS/ directory on the .iso filesystem (so it is available from a mounted .iso file at <mountpoint>/LiveOS/livecd-iso-to-disk). The wiki instructions have been updated.

Installation via dd does not provide persistence of file system changes between boots (and never did). Persistence requires installation using the livecd-iso-to-disk installation script and requesting an overlay.

See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LiveOS_image for a discussion of the USB flash disk usage limitations and the different file systems available to the LiveOS user.

The dracut produced initial ram filesystem offers a large variety of storage configurations, see https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/blob/master/dracut.cmdline.7.asc#booting-live-images. One new configuration with OverlayFS will allow the overlay to consume the whole USB flash drive file system if the USB flash drive file system is formatted with ext4 or xfs file system types. The OverlayFS configuration is less mature than the Device-mapper configuration, so experimental feedback is welcome.

mock

you should always do all work in mock, this will allow you to esure that the compose environment matches the target environment

to setup a Fedora 25 x86_64 environment you would run the following 

$ mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --init
$ mock -r fedora-25-x86_64 --install lorax-lmc-novirt git vim-minimal pykickstart

if you wanted a different arch or release you would use the correct mock configuration file


Install files

updated from fedora page 12/15/2016

  • ksflatten is part of pykickstart

  • Must be done first:
You must be in the same fedora version (f25) first. This is so that packages can be installed to livecd without SELinux errors and is relabeled at boot time.

directly so kickstart processing of the %include may work, depending on
the location of the files. But if you're using it in virt mode only the
top level ks gets passed into the vm so ksflatten is required in that
case."

  • "If you're using /tmp/lmc you need to make sure you have enough RAM available (assuming it is mounted using tmpfs)"
use /var/lmc if low on memory
  • "Right, if you only have 3.8G then 50% will be assigned to tmpfs and it's likely

you'll run out of ram when using /tmp/ for the resultdir."

warning

12/14/2016
  • There is a problem using LMC this way:

<adamw> satellit: you really *really* shouldn't be running lmc directly on the system with --no-virt anyway <adamw> it's a fundamentally risky thing to do

Make a remix

  • edit the bottom of the flat-fedora-live-soas.ks
that you produce with ksflatten (above)
in this section of the flattened.ks:

%packages

add a program (add name)
- delete a program ( put - in front)
put # in front of listed program to not install it
