Difference between revisions of "Installation on Slackware 13"

Revision as of 21:35, 28 December 2010

What follows was tested on a Slackware 13.1 guest. I assume you have a Linux-Vserver host working.

Download the patch and the installer script

• slack_vserver.tar.gz

tar xzf slack_vserver.tar.gz
cd slack_vserver 

ls 

• PKG_LIST is the package list to be installed in the guest
• slackware_pkg/ is the folder were the packages (txz) to be installed are stored.
• download_slack.sh is a script that you can use to download all the PKG_LIST. If you use this scriptlet all the package will be stored in the slackware_pkg sub-folder.
• make_slack_vserver.sh is the shell script that you have to adjust. It installs the guest.
• slackware-13.1.patch is the patch which modify rc.0 rc.6 rc.M rc.K and rc.inet2. It must be applyed after the creation of the guest. In the patch I switched off all the mounts and executable that are related to the hardware.
• rc is the startup script for the virtual server. It will be automatically copied in /etc/rc.d/init.d/rc

# more rc

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$1" == "3" ]; then
  /etc/rc.d/rc.M
elif [ "$1" == "6" ]; then
  /etc/rc.d/rc.6
else
  echo "Invalid level."
  exit 1
fi

Download the slack packages

First of all select a minimal set of packages to be installed on the virtual server. This list of 108 packages is based on the Minimal System reported at http://slackwiki.org/Minimal_System without all hardware, kernel and multimedia related packages. The install leads to a guest of about 448M of size.

I assume that the packages to be installed are stored in the slackware_pkg folder. If not, adjust its location editing the make_slack_vserver.sh script.

You can download my minimal set of packages running the shell script download_slack_pkg.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# Put here your favourite Slackware repository
 
SRC="ftp://ftp.slackware.no/slackware/slackware-13.1/slackware/"   # 32-bit
#"ftp://ftp.slackware.no/slackware/slackware64-13.1/slackware64/"  # 64-bit
 
LIST="../PKG_LIST"
 
cd slackware_pkg
 
if [ -f $LIST ]; then
        while read line 
            do 
            wget "$SRC$line*.t?z"
        done < $LIST
else
  echo "Can't find $LIST file."
  exit 1
fi
 
rm index.html*

Adjust the package PKG_LIST, enter your favorite ftp server and run from the command line

./download_slack_pkg.sh

Make the guest

Now let's create the guest and install the packages. As you know you must choose at least a "name", a "context" and an ip. In addition you have to modify most of the rc.* startup scripts removing all the hardware related daemons, and finally replace the /dev dir.

This is done running the script make_slack_vserver.sh:

#!/bin/bash
#

  echo "usage: $0 <server-name>"

Note that /etc/resolv.conf /etc/localtime /etc/profile are copied form the host.

Run it to install the guest and all the packages you downloaded.

./make_slack_vserver.sh

Apply the patch and start the guest

Once you have installed the guest apply the patch and if everything is ok start the guest:

cd /vservers/vserver_name/etc/rc.d
patch -p1 < /path/to/slack_vserver/slackware-13.1.patch

vserver <vserver_name> start
vserver <vserver_name> enter

Hints

My patch has been tested with Slackware 13.1, but I suppose that this solution will work also in future version with some small adjustment. In any case, if the patch doesn't work with your version of Slackware try to replace rc.0 rc.6 rc.K rc.M rc.inet2 with these (download here). In addition remember to

• leave /etc/rc.d/init.d/rc script as is. This is a very essential script which is started firstly and runs rc.M on startup or rc.6 on shutdown
• chmod -x rc.inet1 the network is brought up configuring the guest by /etc/vservers
• chmod -x all hardware related services like rc.acpid rc.alsa rc.pcmcia rc.wireless rc.gpm rc.bluetooth rc.hald
• delete all mounts and other hardware related commands in rc.0 rc.6 rc.K rc.M rc.inet2
