RE: Could skolelinux etch test pr00 be released?
Hello Knut, Hello Fabian,
as you see, I have sent my notes yesterday.
Today I checked debian-edu, but did not find my answer to your request.
Is the list regulated and my mail not accepted, or is ther a technical
problem with my headers or my e-mail-system?

for the experts it is too long, but I tried my best to get it complete.
Skolelinux Developer Camp Carreau Wendel 8.-15.07.2006
Testing of the currant etch CD-image of an debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw
What we wanted to do and did
Install a virtual SkoleLinux-Server and -Workstation (as -Client) on a
Computer within qemu and test the virtual network connection.
Advice and Programming: Fabian Franz, FabianFranz@GMX-de
Hardware transport and watching the installation: Uwe Doebereiner,udoebus@kud.com
that is the binary-image we used:
-rw-r--r-- 1 udoebus udoebus 651925504 2006-07-13 12:09 debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw
What I, Uwe, had to learn:
working with qemu needs switching between 3 screen layers:
1. X-Server with the mouse
2. in the qemu-command line: prepare switching back and forth with
sendkey <ctr><alt><f1> <return>
sendkey <ctr><alt><f7> <return>
3. virtual program screen leave it to the X-screen with <ctr><alt>
leave it to the qemu-command-line with <ctrl><alt>2
back to it with <ctrl><alt>1
go into it with mouse<left>
We did the downloading to my Laptop ``doberan8'' and copied the files to ``doberan7''.
My computer used for the testing, named doberan7:
AMD Winchester, Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+, 1800 MHz
board GIGABYTE K8Triton GA-K8NSC-393,
memory 2 GByte (Corsair 4 modules à 512MB; VS1GBKIT400))
Graphics ATI PowerColor 9250; ethernet e100-IDE- card
(the on-board ethernet Marvell-Chip not functioning
(tried drivers sk98lin.ko and skge.ko)
gpm-mouse had to be stopped to use the mouse within the X-screen properly.
Kernel installed on my computer
Linux version 2.6.6-1-k7 (herbert@gondolin) (gcc version 3.3.3 (Debian 20040401)) #1 Wed May 12 18:19:40 EST 2004
2 IDE-Harddisks à 160 GByte,
configuered as 0.5-BIOS-RAID, yielding 160 GByte available
Installed GNU-DEBIAN Sarge-3.1, just updated from ftp.de.debian.org
Screencopies of the commands given:
to make loopdevice
udoebus@doberan7:~$
dd if=/dev/zero of=festplatte.img bs=5G count=4 # (for SkoleLinux-Server)
dd if=/dev/zero of=festplatte2.img bs=1G count=4 #(for SkoleLinux-Workstation-Client)
Start of the installation as from a cdrom, calling the image as downloaded
qemu -cdrom debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw -hda festplatte.img -boot d
(to restart quemu festplatte.img only, "-boot d" would start from -cdrom)
Description of the installation run (observations, questions, answers)
Anmerkung: Das derzeitige Image startet zunächst nicht mit dem 2.6 Kernel, sondern nur mit dem 2.4 Kernel:
Comment: The current image used does not start with the default 2.6 Kernel, but with the 2.4 Kernel.
Folgender Fehler tritt auf: Es erscheint die rote Skolelinux-Eingabescreen;
Error: the red SkoleLinux pops up
beantworten mit: install24
answer the prompt: install24
Debian-Installer Questions:
Zu installierende Oberfläche beantwortet mit: Server und Client
(*) Server, (*)Client
(nicht angewählte Alternativen waren Workstation und Standard).
Select
Question: erase entire disk; beantwortn mit ja
yes
Hint: security updates are commented out in sources.list.
Hinweis: Für den hier verwendeten Download melden Nutzer Probleme bei der Installation des X-servers. Das xserver-xorg package sollte in diesem Fall nachinstalliert werden.
Comment: users said, xserver-xorg does not start, has to be reinstalled afterwards
finish installation as usual. give root password. Later on, you will wish, you had added a first user.
Nach Installationende reboot mit Fehlermeldung:
reboot command, ending with error
Neueingabe: qemu -hda festplatte.img
restart with qemu -hda festplatte.img
Startet mit Kommondozeilen login:
start into login:
<root>
<rootpasswort>
prompt ~/ homeverzeichnis root leer. Graphisches Skolelinux-Login hier nicht verfügbar (war ja Fehlermeldung des hier verwendeten Abzugs.)
qemu -hda festplatte.img
Was macht jetzt der Unerfahrene (Tester/Lehrer). Empfehlenswert README.txt mit Anweisungen. Zumindest für mich und etch als Testing-Version?
Bei Aufruf von dselect funktioniert nicht der / (slash), allerdings andere Buchstaben und die Pfeiltasten: Erklärung wäre gewesen, das keyboard-layout ist English
/ für den Aufruf der Suchfunktion steht nicht zur Verfügung. No German /, English keyboard is installed!
Tastatureingabe < shift-q > erfolgreich. Deselect kann verlassen werden.
Alle xserver-xorg Packages sind selected.
Wie erfolgt die Neuinstalltion des X-servers? ,
reboot startet System neu
halt funktioniert. Nach Schließen des qemu-Fensters wieder im X-Fenster, aus dem der Aufruf erfolgte.
Nach Installation eines neuen Kernels im virtuellen PC durch Fabian wurde der X-server gestartet. Allerdings konnte da root nicht einloggen,
mußte mit dem für das Umschalten angelegten <ctrl><alt><2> in das root

Installation of the debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw starts with an error-message, because it can't start with
a 2.6 Kernel still
answer the error prompt with install 24
The system used will not install the Xorg-server correctly
after failure to reboot, you have to leave the install screen with ctrl-alt and close it with the mousepointer in the top-left X :-)
restart with qemu -cdrom debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw -hda festplatte2.img
login as root with the password you set in the first install run
now we want to install a new 2.6 kernel within the freshly installed SkoleLinux-System
#: . /etc/bash_completion (we want to search for the new client on the cdrom-raw-file (to start completion with <TAB>
#: apt-get install kernel-image-2.6.... seach with <TAB>s <return>
error: cdrom not found. You have to switch to the qemu command line to insert the "cdrom-image" into cdrom-Drive on the qemu-level
so change to the qemu-screen one level out of the present screen level with
Ctrl+Alt+2
change cdrom ../debian-edu-i386-binary-1.raw (tabbing)
back to the installation-screen
Ctrl+Alt+1
repeat #: one back in the history ( ^-Cursor) and <RETURN>
the new 2.6-Kernel should install now
the new kernel will install.
now <adduser testuser> to ad a user, who is allowd to login into the KDE-login (root will not!)
Reboot now goes into the qemu-screen, showing the grub boot-promt
In our Example-Installtion we now got the X-Server SkoleLinux Input-Login-Screen
you can't login as root
so login into the Menu-Button, select Terminal
login as root, then <adduser testuser>
logout will deliver the KDE-Login again.
After a halt, qemu was started again, to incorporate the acceleration with k-kernel-mode _and_ to have an additional network
stop the emulation.
start ist again with
