auto-biarch (x86_64 + i686) LiveDVD patch + ISO
by Jan Kratochvil 02 Jan '11

02 Jan '11

Hi, finally created a LiveDVD ISO automatically booting x86_64 OS on x86_64 (and i686 otherwise). Regular users will not notice there exists any new arch while they will benefit from the full performance of their PC: http://people.redhat.com/jkratoch/x86bilive-2009062000.tar.gz (71KB) It uses live_dir=LiveOS-x86_64 vs. live_dir=LiveOS-i686 to boot the image. The syslinux patch provides "default-{x86_64,i386}" keywords in isolinux.cfg. livecd-iso-to-disk is not patched/compatible with such image. livecd-creator should create such ISO on a single run, not by merging the output of two livecd-creator runs by a 3rd party app. Regards, Jan Reasons: * I still did not understand why I have to carry with me two media - both x86_64 and i386 - when all the data perfectly fit on a single media. * Why I have to try to boot x86_64 first to find out if the specific machine is x86_64? Even common programmers do not know it, "Windows XP works here". * The OS must "just work", it must be fun and easy. Requiring a special technical decision before even starting the OS download is a showstopper. * Checked that a regular user will on http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora still download terrible performance degradation of 32-bit OS although her hadware is in 70%-95%(?) of cases x86_64. x86_64 is here for 6 years now. * Arguing x86 may be faster than x86_64... I did not find any such case, x86_64 is a more modern arch (more registers, PIC for free, better ABI). We already hit the 2GB address space limitations. x86_64 is the future. * All the friends of mine have 8Mbit+ ADSL and TB disks downloading many DVD disks so some several more hundreds of MB are not something to notice. mkisofs -f -J -r -hide-rr-moved -hide-joliet-trans-tbl -V Fedora-11-x86bi-Live -o ../x86bilive.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -boot-load-size 4 . mount -r -o loop Fedora-11-x86_64-Live.iso x86_64/ mount -r -o loop Fedora-11-i686-Live.iso i686/ x86bilive: total 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2009-06-18 21:10 GPL -> ../x86_64/GPL lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2009-06-18 21:11 LiveOS-i686 -> ../i686/LiveOS/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2009-06-18 21:10 LiveOS-x86_64 -> ../x86_64/LiveOS/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2009-06-18 21:10 README -> ../x86_64/README drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-06-20 21:44 isolinux/ x86bilive/isolinux: total 184 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 2009-06-18 21:13 boot.cat -> ../../x86_64/isolinux/boot.cat lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 2009-06-18 21:17 ii686 -> ../../i686/isolinux/initrd0.img -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14336 2009-06-20 21:45 isolinux.bin -r--r--r-- 1 root root 1411 2009-06-20 21:44 isolinux.cfg lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 2009-06-18 21:13 ix8664 -> ../../x86_64/isolinux/initrd0.img lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 2009-06-18 21:17 ki686 -> ../../i686/isolinux/vmlinuz0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 2009-06-18 21:13 kx8664 -> ../../x86_64/isolinux/vmlinuz0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 2009-06-18 21:13 memtest -> ../../x86_64/isolinux/memtest lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 2009-06-18 21:13 splash.jpg -> ../../x86_64/isolinux/splash.jpg -r--r--r-- 1 root root 159888 2009-06-20 20:48 vesamenu.c32 isolinux.cfg: default vesamenu.c32 timeout 100 menu background splash.jpg menu title Welcome to Fedora-11-x86bi-Live! menu color border 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color sel 7 #ffffffff #ff000000 menu color title 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color tabmsg 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color unsel 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color hotsel 0 #ff000000 #ffffffff menu color hotkey 7 #ffffffff #ff000000 menu color timeout_msg 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color timeout 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu color cmdline 0 #ffffffff #00000000 menu hidden menu hiddenrow 5 label linux0 menu label x86_64 Boot kernel kx8664 append initrd=ix8664 root=CDLABEL=Fedora-11-x86bi-Live rootfstype=auto live_dir=LiveOS-x86_64 ro liveimg quiet rhgb menu default-x86_64 label check0 menu label x86_64 Verify and Boot kernel kx8664 append initrd=ix8664 root=CDLABEL=Fedora-11-x86bi-Live rootfstype=auto live_dir=LiveOS-x86_64 ro liveimg quiet rhgb check label linux1 menu label i686 Boot kernel ki686 append initrd=ii686 root=CDLABEL=Fedora-11-x86bi-Live rootfstype=auto live_dir=LiveOS-i686 ro liveimg quiet rhgb menu default-i386 label check1 menu label i686 Verify and Boot kernel ki686 append initrd=ii686 root=CDLABEL=Fedora-11-x86bi-Live rootfstype=auto live_dir=LiveOS-i686 ro liveimg quiet rhgb check label memtest menu label Memory Test kernel memtest label local menu label Boot from local drive localboot 0xffff --- /dev/null 1 Jan 1970 00:00:00 -0000 +++ defaults.patch 20 Jun 2009 20:10:46 -0000 @@ -0,0 +1,175 @@ +--- syslinux-3.75-orig/com32/menu/Makefile 2009-04-16 06:42:14.000000000 +0200 ++++ syslinux-3.75-defaults/com32/menu/Makefile 2009-06-20 19:21:32.000000000 +0200 +@@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ MODULES = menu.c32 vesamenu.c32 + TESTFILES = + + COMMONOBJS = menumain.o readconfig.o passwd.o drain.o printmsg.o colors.o \ +- background.o refstr.o execute.o ++ background.o refstr.o execute.o verify_cpu.o + + all: $(MODULES) $(TESTFILES) + +--- syslinux-3.75-orig/com32/menu/menu.h 2009-04-16 06:42:14.000000000 +0200 ++++ syslinux-3.75-defaults/com32/menu/menu.h 2009-06-20 19:21:32.000000000 +0200 +@@ -224,4 +224,9 @@ void execute(const char *cmdline, enum k + /* drain.c */ + void drain_keyboard(void); + ++/* verify_cpu.S */ ++#if defined(__i386__) || defined(__x86_64__) ++int verify_cpu(void); ++#endif ++ + #endif /* MENU_H */ +--- syslinux-3.75-orig/com32/menu/readconfig.c 2009-04-16 06:42:14.000000000 +0200 ++++ syslinux-3.75-defaults/com32/menu/readconfig.c 2009-06-20 20:23:24.000000000 +0200 +@@ -656,11 +656,22 @@ static void parse_config_file(FILE *f) + m->parent_entry->displayname = refstr_get(m->title); + } + } +- } else if ( looking_at(p, "default") ) { +- if (ld.label) { +- ld.menudefault = 1; +- } else if (m->parent_entry) { +- m->parent->defentry = m->parent_entry->entry; ++ } else if ( looking_at(p, "default") ++#if defined(__i386__) || defined(__x86_64__) ++ || looking_at(p, "default-i386") ++ || looking_at(p, "default-x86_64") ++#endif ++ ) { ++#if defined(__i386__) || defined(__x86_64__) ++ if (!

Custom initrd
by Mads Kiilerich 04 Mar '10

04 Mar '10

I am using livecd-creator from livecd-tools-024-1.fc11.i586 and need to customize the initrd. But I have problems making it work and figuring out what is going on. I have figured out that livecd-creator through imgcreate creates a /etc/sysconfig/mkinitrd. When rpms runs mkinitrd from their %post script then it will exec mkliveinitrd and use the configured module list. AFAICS livecd-creator then picks up the initrd from /boot, and the end result after having written the iso to usb with livecd-iso-to-disk is that it ends up in /syslinux/initrd0.img. But if I overwrite the /boot/initrd* in %post like this: /sbin/mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-$(rpm -q kernel --qf '%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n').img $(rpm -q kernel --qf '%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n') then it won't be used. What am I doing wrong? When is the initrd picked up? What is the code flow? If I make %post preserve /etc/sysconfig/mkinitrd and boots from usb and restores /etc/sysconfig/mkinitrd and runs /sbin/mkinitrd -f /mnt/live/syslinux/initrd0.img $(rpm -q kernel --qf "%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n") then it works as expected. /Mads

livecd-creator creates ISO without /home
by Martin Dengler 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

Hi, I'm getting a .ISO without a /home despite the filesystem rpm being installed, and I'd really appreciate any tips on debugging this or hints as to how this might happen. This is with the example .ks and I can get livecd-creator to work on a number of other machines. If I chroot and install the same filesystem rpm again (--force of course, since it's already installed), I do get a /home. I'm running: $ setarch i586 sudo livecd-creator --skip-compression --cache=../cache -t /home/mtd/xo-soas/images -c /usr/share/doc/livecd-tools-024/livecd-fedora-minimal.ks on a machine like: # uname -r Linux benderxxx 2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 27 17:27:08 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux and I'm getting a filesystem like: http://people.sugarlabs.org/~mtd/soas-xo1/livecd.ext3_listing The output of the livecd-creator command is: http://people.sugarlabs.org/~mtd/soas-xo1/livecd.buildlog Any help much appreciated.

I've been using the livecd-tools from the CentOS LiveCD Project, but the same issue seems to apply in Fedora.
