The Template Builder
|
||
|
|
======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(applies also to the netvm builder)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) get a clean image of a Linux install (e.g. by using virt-install) NOTE: We
|
||
|
|
assume that the image will have a two-partition layout:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
img1 <--- the root fs (/)
|
||
|
|
img2 <--- the swap
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) update symlinks in rpms_to_install so that they point to the current version
|
||
|
|
of rpms to install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) Now, you can "qubeize" the image. This must be done as root. E.g.:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ./qubeize_image clean_images/some_image.img f12-x64-compact
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4) Make sure the symlinks in vm_kernels point to correct kernel and initramfs
|
||
|
|
files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4a) In order to prepare a patched initramfs file, use the
|
||
|
|
patch_appvm_initramfs.sh program that is installed as part of
|
||
|
|
qubes-core-dom0.rpm:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# /usr/lib/qubes/patch_appvm_initramfs.sh \
|
||
|
|
<original_initrafms> \
|
||
|
|
<filename_for_patched_initramfs> \
|
||
|
|
/abs_path/vm-initramfs-patches/qubes_cow_setup.sh
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4b) Manually adjust the appmenus
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5) Finally, build the Template RPM (do it as normal user, not root), e.g.:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$./build_rpm <name>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The resulting rpm is stored in rpm/noarch directory.
