Infrastructure Team/Template virtual machine lucid
This procedure documents how our template Karmic image was created and configured
VM Creation
virt-install --prompt -v --accelerate --nographics -x console=ttyS0,115200 \ --name template-lucid --vcpus=4 --ram $((1*1024)) \ --os-type=linux --os-variant=ubuntujaunty --network bridge:br0 \ --disk path=/srv/vm/template-lucid.qcow2,bus=virtio,sparse=true,size=10 \ --location http://ubuntu.media.mit.edu/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/
ip adresse: 140.186.70.109
We install with the minimun of needed package setup:
- ubuntu basic server -> since we use ubuntu server, we want ubuntu basic
- openssh server -> for remote access
After installation:
virsh start --console template-lucid
Configuration (serial console part)
Open the console (virsh console template-karmic) with your installation username and password, then:
sudo -i aptitude install etckeeper bash-completion git-core strace munin-node duplicity postfix vim devtodo aptitude purge memtest86+ update-alternatives --set editor /usr/bin/vim.basic
<- template-lucid changes
- Remove restricted repositories from /etc/apt/sources.list (fsf asks us to avoid using non-free software).
- Disable PasswordAuthentication in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
vim /etc/etckeeper/etckeeper.conf # comment out bzr, enable git etckeeper init etckeeper commit "Initial commit" echo >>/etc/aliases "root: systems-logs@lists.sugarlabs.org" newliases cd /etc/profile.d ln -s /usr/share/doc/devtodo/examples/scripts.sh devtodo.sh
Append to /etc/network/interfaces, then restart network:

Add these to /etc/sudoers:
