Debian progress in automatic download/install of Reiser4 AMD64 kernel

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Niltze, all-

I have hacked (literally) additional UDEB components of the Unstable
Debian-Installer (d-i) which basically resolve the automatic
modification of /etc/initramfs-tools/modules, SSL download of the
Reiser4-enabled Linux kernel (from my site, as Debian.org and
Devuan.org obviously are not interested) and create initramfs with
Reiser4 support.

Below is my first custom Reiser4 installation into 'Necoc Yaotl' host
virtual machine -- 'remotely' ;-) via ssh -- from another virtual
machine (Cohuatlicue host); this latter executes the menu-driven
expert Debian-Installer (that's how I monitored the successful Reiser4
kernel installation procedure).

Only requirement was not to select (any) default Debian kernel(s) from
menu *but* to select to install GRUB (option) to the virtual disk --
*even* if I had not selected any kernel to install. The finish-install
procedure [script(s)] at the end actually performed the 'magic' for
this Reiser4 support hack (took me a while, but worked :)

My next aim is to include the Reiser4 Kernel into the default
menu-driven d-i so as to allow the user to select it. And finally to
create Stable Debian (Jessie) images for a relatively normal user
installation of Reiser4 filesystem.


Best professional Regards.
