Monday, April 30. 2007packaged zfs-fuseGebi and me packaged zfs-fuse for Debian/grml. ZFS is an advanced modern general-purpose filesystem from Sun Microsystems, originally designed for Solaris/OpenSolaris. zfs-fuse is a port of ZFS to the FUSE framework for the Linux operating system. Just get the debian package from grml-testing pool or just wait for grml 1.0. :-) Monday, April 16. 2007grml-debootstrap 0.7I just uploaded a new version of grml-debootstrap to the grml-testing pool providing many new features. One nifty feature is setting variables via commandline. This allows you to install Debian with just one command and 2 keystrokes(!) (one 'y' for starting execution of grml-debootstrap and another one for setting the password of user root, this can be automated as well of course if you want to). I just installed a plain Debian system via running: # grml-debootstrap --target /dev/hda2 --grub hd0 --groot hd0,1 But that's not all. You can install a plain Debian system full automatic(!) via bootoption debian2hd. I just did a full automatic installation with grml-debootstrap 0.7 and grml-autoconfig 0.6.39 running on grml-small via booting with: debian2hd target=/dev/hda1 grub=hd0 groot=hd0,0 mirror=ftp://ftp.tugraz.at/mirror/debian password=foobar Not a single keystroke behind the commandline on the bootprompt. Rocking! :-) Sunday, April 15. 2007

Comments (0) Trackbacks (0) linux-image-2.6.20-grml: grml.04A new full-featured version of 2.6.20-grml (revision grml.04) is available in the grml-testing pool. It's based on 2.6.20.6 and I plan to use it as stable kernel for the new develrelease grml 0.9-7, the upcoming grml 1.0-rc1 and the final stable version as well if everything works as expected. It's already integrated within my latest devel-ISO and I'm working on the last few issues on the todolist. Expect to get a new develrelease within the next few days.... Same applies to grml64 and grml-small as well... Now going back to work... |
