See the readme file for a quickly hacked together list of what's on the CD, where I got it from, and what I changed from 'stock' Bering-1.2.
There is also a readme.cd file in the cd contents/ directory, which is mainly a hacked version of the Dachstein-CD readme (covers linux mkisofs command required to build a new CD and the Dachstein/Bering packaging extentions).
Key changes from stock Bering-1.2:
- New /linuxrc scripts
- Modified module loading script
- Shorewall package is 'raw' package directly from shorewall maintainers (ie: no pre-configuration for typicaly SOHO firewall).
For anyone used to Dachstein-CD, this will be very familiar. Read up on the /linuxrc mods (see leaf-devel archives, circa: March 23, 2004 and prior), crawl through the execllent shorewall documentation, and read up on the Bering documentation as required.
HELP WANTED:
I have not fully identified where all the packages came from (I took over this project from a friend, who couldn't manage to make a bootable Bering CD). Help in identifying versions and/or replacing any packages in the contents list with more recent versions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
I also want to switch to a kernel with modularized ip_conntrack and ip_tables (allowing me to adjust paramters that are otherwise only settable at kernel compile time). I have a 2.4.24 kernel (based on bering-uClibc's kernel) compiled, but have not tested it. Given the recent thread on updating IPSec (which would also need a new kernel), perhaps it's best to combine these two items for the CD-ROM. Maybe someone will even build the new kernel and IPSec, and I won't have to (hint-hint ;-).
Sorry for the general lack of release-specific documentation, but with twins I don't have the time I did before to wrap up all the loose ends.
DISCLAIMER: There are probably major problems with this CD, but it's been working fine for me for about a month. If you have problems with the CD, I'll cheerefully refund everything you paid me for it. :-)
NOTE: Due to the kernel issue, this version doesn't even get "release-candidate" status (ie: at least 1 major known issue), but it really is working fine, and should work just as well as the currently released Bering-1.2 (which also doesn't allow setting things like ip_conntrack hash table size).
