Just built a new freedombox for virtualbox and ran the tests again.
Everything reported success except:
error: ./dns-server.test: DNSSEC is not enabled
error: ./jwchat.test HTTP access to http://10.0.2.15 did not work
The first one was expected as the code is not there yet, per a previous
email to the list.
I noticed that the first time I ran the virtual machine it booted up to
the point of dealing with eth0, then it waited for a while (no new
messages appeared for a while) and then I started seeing shutdown
messages. When that finished, it rebooted and then I got the login
prompt, which is all I've been getting. I can login as root and fbx,
but I suspect this is not normal behavior. How do I access plinth?
Maybe this is a consequence of dealing with virtualbox and only one
eth interface? I notice that the shell for the plinth login is
/bin/false, so can't get to it that way. I suppose there's no user
documentation yet, right?
Removing the root (and fbx) login(s), as was talked about in another
thread would make the freedombox totally unreachable/unusable as I
see it right now in the virtualbox.
Sending it the virtualbox "ACPI shutdown" seems to have no effect, the
login screen remains. Close -> power off the machine closes the window
but I don't see all the shutdown messages. Subsequent starts first
display "MBR", then go through the usual boot messages and end up in the
login screen.
Is this what I should be seeing?
