Hi Markus, Nope, as far as I know this hasn't yet been done with Morphix (only unencrypted home-directory mounting). If you do get this to work or if you need something extra in morphix to do so I'm all ears, as this would be a welcome addition. cheers, Alex -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHfNX7QeuQA5TF/UsRAoQxAJ9ZJRZlYS0dfGiCYYmZh8RWHS2cCQCeMUir +FBBf/HBp++GT5tb89YBxsE= =9XMH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

Hello, Before i waste my time and would develop something that exists or is in work. Does anyone have a skript or works on a skript to mount the home-directory of the morphix-user to an encrypted luks-device like a cryptsetup/luks-formated usb-stick? There are working solutions with loopdevices and aes-encryption in knoppx and morphix but i have not seen support for cryptsetup/luks (which allows easy and secure to change the password of the encrypted partition) until now. Greetings, Markus |

Latest 2.6.23 basemod finally works - Had to tweak mkminiroot and deb-get to work round some problems (anyone doing local builds may want to upgrade). The first basemod for next year will be a 2.6.23 kernel complete with bootsplash \o/ More good news - It looks like the bootsplash patch will also work with 2.6.24, so there is life in the thing for a while longer. Regards, Paul. |

Hi Alex Quick note about the current (experimental) cloop source - With 2.6.23,=20 unregister_blkdev() returns a void, so building the module fails with: /usr/src/modules/cloop/compressed_loop.c: In=20 function =E2=80=98unregister_cloop_blkdev=E2=80=99: /usr/src/modules/cloop/compressed_loop.c:927: error: void value not ignored= as=20 it ought to be make[4]: *** [/usr/src/modules/cloop/compressed_loop.o] Error 1 I'll build a new cloop package with the (trivial) fix and upload the files = to=20 zathras..

Using 2.4.24-rc6 as a baseline, the bootsplash patch applies with a few fuzzy chunks but no failures - Unless there are any significant changes to fbcon and vesafb sources, we should be OK for a little while longer.

Cool, note that a modified cloop might be required. The (patched) source is in the repository.

I wouldn't mind including both for the time being, but I agree that splashy is the only option for the long run. Not having to patch the kernel will be nice, and development for splashy seems to be more active. Splashy and bootsplash use the same bootoption, so I'll have to script around that, but that's a minor deal. cheers, Alex -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHc8SjQeuQA5TF/UsRAj9lAJ9qr20pZXUQ1JPLFy2in4hs4w7lyQCcD08d FmjwD0KfIM/ffakYXUj5TAM= =Jull -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

You can find a base iso with this kernel in the autobuilds: Although (my version of) bootsplash will apply cleanly to a 2.6.22 and 2.6.23 kernel, we are faced with a major problem with 2.6.24 and beyond - The bootsplash patch will no longer get any official support, and major structural changes have been made to 2.6.24 (i386 and x86_64 has been merged in to a single architecture). Whilst it may be possible to maintain our own bootsplash patch for 2.6.24 and beyond, I feel it is time to look at using splashy. I had a quick look at it last night, and it works OK(ish) on an installed system. Running from boot on a LiveCD is going to require a little bit of editing to the linuxrc script in miniroot - Probably resulting in the need for a splashy.udeb. I'll build a set of 2.6.23 kernel packages (what other *-modules-2.6.23 packages do we need ?) tonight with bootsplash & unionfs patched in. Given time, also investigate the effort required to use bootsplash with 2.6.24. In the meantime, any thoughts on splashy ? Regards, Paul. |

Hi Eli, > Is there any solution for me, without replacing the entire kernel or > libc? Did you try the 2.6.22 base-autobuild? (www.morphix.org/autobuilds) Looking at the autotesting-snapshots this base worked at least for morphix-game, so it might be worth a shot if you want a newer version. Simply add your own mainmodule to it. If you want the 2.6.17 kernel source, you can find it in the morphix package repository. You'd best compile the driver against the proper kernel source files, compiling a driver against a different kernel tree tends to be more trouble than it's worth. Even then you might have to force the loading of the module with insmod -f. Good luck! Alex PS. Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noël & Prettige Kerstdagen to all on the list! |

Thank you Brenden and Alex! module-extractor didn't work for me (too many error). Instead of trying to work around the problems, I ran extract_compressed_fs directly, and then mounted the ISO, and had the file (r8169.ko). But now I have another problem: My purpose was to upgrade the driver version of RealTek r8169 Ethernet. The extracted driver "disagreed" about version of symbol struct_module, and insmoding it caused "invalid module format". I also have the latest driver from RealTek, but can't compile it, because it requires the kernel source tree, which depends on things that upgrading some of them may damage the system (e.g. new libc). The current driver - sized 32165 bytes (2.6.17-morphix) - works very bad under some hardware configurations. Is there any solution for me, without replacing the entire kernel or libc?

Hi Eli, > sorry for the silly question, but what is the easiest way to open the > file base/morphix under a working system? There's no such thing as a silly question. The easiest way is by adding the morphix repository (see morphix.org/debian) to your system. Then, apt-get update && apt-get install morphing-tools and use module-extractor to extract the base/morphix file (see module-extractor --help for details). You can also use the cloop utilities directly: apt-get install cloop-utils and use extract_compressed_fs to extract the base/morphix file. The result is exactly the same. For further details on morphing, see the howto's on http://www.morphix.org/doc/how_tos/docbook_html and the command-line man-pages on http://www.morphix.org/doc/how_tos/all_man_pages/html cheers, Alex |

Hey Gabriel, hope you're ok! > old base.iso I have here (kernel 2.6.18) and it worked fine. The fact is > I'd like to use one of the 2.6.22 base isos available at autobuilds > repository. By the looks of the autotesting video unionfs isn't working with 2.6.22, which is likely to be the cause of your problems. The 2.6.22-base required (and still requires) a bit of work due to cloop and unionfs, and isn't in a functional state. That said, I've looked into the issue and it was something minor. I've upload an updated base-scripts package, so tomorrows 2.6.22-autobuild might be more useful :) cheers, and let me know if you hit into any other problems, Alex |

Hi there folks, It's been a while since my last e-mail. I hope everyone is fine! Well, after a long period without dealing with morphix, due to hardwork, I decided to play with it again. Yesterday, after building my livecd.iso, I realised that it won't start X because it complains about not being able to find and load two X.org modules (After autoconfiguring xorg.conf). This only happens when I try to run the iso within Q-Emu or Virtual Box ( X works fine if I type startx inside my chrooted environment). I decide to try to use an old base.iso I have here (kernel 2.6.18) and it worked fine. The fact is I'd like to use one of the 2.6.22 base isos abailable at autobuilds repository. Could anyone help this rusted guy to get back in shape ? Thanks a lot in advance! Best regards to all! Gabriel. |

Hi Priti, > Could anyone please guide me in creating rpm based live CD/DVD with > Morphix. > Wants to use RPM repositories and create customized CD/DVD resolving all > the package dependencies. Morphix currently only sports automatic apt/deb installation. You might be able to convert the rpm's to deb's using alien, and install the generated deb packages. RPM's in itself are unable to resolve dependancies, that is what yum is used for in the rpm-world. Morphix currently only uses apt for automatic package installation (via mmaker or otherwise), so I can't help you there. cheers & good luck, Alex |
