kiwi config missing #3

Open aspiers opened 10 years ago

Please commit the kiwi config you are using, and a README for how to use it would be great too ;-)

kiwi config is available now.. README coming

aspiers commented 10 years ago

Is that definitely the config you are using? It's configured to build an OEM image not a VMX (.qcow2) one, and it refers to xdm.tar and bootsplash.tar which are missing (are they Studio-only things?)

Also, why is the LAMP server pattern included?

Would be really helpful to have answers ASAP as I have started building my kiwi appliance for the Atlanta workshop and I'm basing it on this one!

OK I'll maintain a list of questions here and edit it as I get answers ;-)

~~why is it OEM not VMX?~~
~~how exactly do you build the appliance using kiwi?~~ with create_appliance.sh (not checked in yet)
~~what's the deal with the missing xdm.tar and bootsplash.tar?~~ (he doesn't know, not a problem with create_appliance.sh
~~why is the lamp_server pattern included? wouldn't it be enough to include the SMT server pattern?~~ probably a good idea - submitted as #29
the repository paths in config.xml look wrong (Cameron doesn't know)

Its OEM and not VMX because I create preload ISO images for test in VMware. I can easily change to VMX. Not a big deal. I am impartial on hypervisor choice. However I can see your point in using VMX.

Missing tars.. well. I a bit ignorant here. I don't know if github will support large files like that.. do you know if it does?

lamp_server pattern is included because its required for SMT ;-)

I'll look at the config.xml repo paths. It works in my local build environment.
