installation and documentation issues #336

Open kcris opened 2 years ago

kcris commented 2 years ago

  1. installing "from sources", readme says run go get ... except that go get is not working like that, not anymore.

  2. managed to install via apt install debos. But it does not run on a fresh ubuntu 22.04 lts (using the default backend) debos complains about /tmp/fakemachine

Some old issues, unsolved, are pointing to /dev/kvm but even a chmod 777 on /dev/kvm is not solving this (debos does work if I disable fakemachine, which is NOT what I want).

Conclusion: I was only able to install debos via apt install debos on debian 10 / 11 hosts.

Time to update the docs?

ps. In case you are using a vm as your "host", make sure to enable "nested virtualization" (intel vt-x or amd-v) for your vm so that you can install kvm in your vm and use it as a fakemachine backend

Hi all,

I second the request for some updated documentation. The described installation process does not work anymore. At first glance it's something about the @latest syntax. But my non-existing knowledge of the GO ecosystem did not allow me to find a fix for this.

An updated documentation would be highly appreciated.

Thank you.
