Thursday, March 3. 2005kernel 2.6.11[-grml]While creating the grml ISOs for release 0.3 I'm running same basic patching + compile tests with kernel 2.6.11. Compiling unionfs 1.0.9 against the new kernel worked like a charme, integration of squashfs2.1-r2 and patch-2.6.11-ck1 was also an easy task. iteraid.patch required some small adjustments (see MOD_*_USE_COUNT macros were deprecated). Several other patches are waiting for integration. Remember: if you want to see any special patches inside 2.6.11-grml please drop me a mail [mika (at) grml.org]. Wednesday, March 2. 2005locking a grml boxI was thinking of a reliable way to lock a grml box. Logging out is not possible due to the respawn-feature of init. The solution is to run 'passwd && vlock -a'. This sets a password for the current user (which is disabled by default for security reasons) and then locks the current console and disables switching to other consoles. Wednesday, March 2. 2005

Comments (0) Trackbacks (0) several updates + kernel 2.6.11Martin sent me his script grml-pptp-xdsl-students (thanks!), I updated grml-muttng, Christoph Wegscheider sent me a fix for szs (statusbar for WMI), several updates in grml-etc and finally Jimmy and me fixed grml2hd (thanks, Jimmy!). Now I'll do some more testing. 0.3 is coming closer! :) BTW: Kernel 2.6.11 is available. This means that as soon as we release grml 0.3 I'll start working at the kernel. If you want to see any (special) patches inside grml-kernel please let me know! |
