Testing NomadBSD for the upcoming Release #128

Open mrclksr opened 1 year ago

Testing NomadBSD for the upcoming Release

For the upcoming release we need testers. The following describes how you can build the images, and how to test them.

Requirements for Building the Images

Clone the Repository

% git clone --recursive https://github.com/nomadbsd/NomadBSD.git

If your copy of the NomadBSD repository is not owned by the root user, run

# git config --global --add safe.directory /full/path/to/NomadBSD

as root before the first build. Otherwise the build script can't correctly generate the image name.

Building all Images

# ./release -P

Building amd64 Images only

If you want to test the amd64 (64-bits) images only, you can proceed as follows:

# ./build all
# ./build -f zfs image

This will build the amd64 UFS image first, and then build the amd64 ZFS image.

Building Mac Images only

If you want to test the mac images only, you can proceed as follows:

# ./build -a mac all
# ./build -a mac -f zfs image

This will build the mac UFS image first, and then build the mac ZFS image.

Building i386 (32-bits) Image only

If you want to test the i386 image only, you can proceed as follows:

# ./build -a i386 all

This will build the i386 UFS image.

Testing

If possible test the images on real hardware. If that's not possible, use a VM like VirtualBox.

What to Test

nid1321 commented 1 year ago

Hello Marcel, I am interested in the testing and have started to do so.

The first bug i came across is : I have installed NomadBSD to a HDD, and after installing from the Nomad Installer and reboot --- In the taskbar NomadBSD Installer is still visible and when i click on that it says failed to execute the command.

I ran in to an issue trying to build the AMD GPU driver.

I built this in a clean install of FreeBSD 13.1 (amd64). I will try to investigate more tonight.

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

Hi @andreas-jonsson,

that looks familiar. Make sure to update your ports tree.

maurizio-emmex commented 1 year ago

I am testing the nomadbsd-131R-80dec9b9.amd64.zfs.img image on a PC with the 'Realtek Gaming GbE Family Controller" as identified by Window 11.

The stock re driver don't work.

On another machine, a Mac, I have installed the package sudo pkg install realtek-re-kmod-197.00

and added in /boot/loader.conf 

if_re_load="YES"
if_re_name="/boot/modules/if_re.ko"

With this driver it works.

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

Thank you, @maurizio-emmex! Working on it.

reinboldg commented 1 year ago

I have a font/charset problem on my Thinkpad X201 after installing on the hard drive.

I cannot read anything, the terminal does not appear.

No problem when booting on the USB stick.

Login screen

Notification

Terminal tooltip

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

@reinboldg:

That's very odd. Are there any fonts under /usr/local/share/fonts? What does grep 'EE|WW' /var/log/Xorg.0.log say?

reinboldg commented 1 year ago

@mrclksr yep very strange

/usr/local/share/fonts is empty

grep -E 'EE|WW' /var/log/Xorg.0.log return many warnings about nonexistent fonts. This corresponds with the empty directory /usr/local/share/fonts.

    (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
[    47.505] (WW) The directory "/usr/local/share/fonts/Droid" does not exist.
[    47.505] (WW) The directory "/usr/local/share/fonts/Hana" does not exist.

I reinstalled all packages corresponding to the /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/files.conf

It fixed the problem, but it doesn't tell why the /usr/local/share/fonts directory was empty after a fresh install.

I put a fresh install on a VirtualBox VM with the same image, no problem.

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

@reinboldg, did you use a ZFS or a UFS image? Did you enable encryption? Which configuration did you choose in the installer?

reinboldg commented 1 year ago

@mrclksr

mrclksr commented 1 year ago

@reinboldg: I didn't encounter any problems. I guess there was some I/O problem while copying the /usr/local/share/fonts directory. If you like to, you could try again and see if you encounter similar problems. Check dmesg after running the installer for any I/O error messages.

Is any issue here not (also) encompassed in a separate issue?
