guest-magic / News: Recent posts

It has been a while since I made any changes to guest-magic. I am however working on adding a few changes. I have been playing around a bit with some code. Testing various things individually but not as part of guest-magic. Therefore, I haven't actually uploaded any code to CVS. Hopefully soon Ill have some free time and be able to add things that Im playing around with into the guest-magic code and maybe even have a new release. I have really long days these days with very little free time so it might take a while for me to actually get things done. However, here are some of the things I have been working on:
- add feature to clone guests that use a file as a disk instead of an LVM volume. This way a user will be prompted when the application starts whether they want to clone an lvm based guest or a file based guest.
- let user browse to the file/guest they want to clone and browse to the directory where they actually want to save the cloned guest.
- guest-magic will now actually edit an existing configuration file instead of having the config file hard coded in the guest-magic code. I found that some guest configuration files are different than others and therefore having it hardcoded is not a good idea. It shouldn't have been hard coded to begin with but I guess due to time constraints we took the easy way out.... read more

Forgot to import the os library in the 0.1.1 release. Program would crash before it even started. Should be all good now.

Just fixed a bug. 'xm list' is now executed through the use of a pipe instead of commands.getoutput.

The great user-friendly GUI tool is finally released to end user to download and create instant guest domain.

Today we added some code to our CVS repo. Our first release is comming up really shortly. Expect it within the next few days.
