Ralf, Thank you for this feedback. I understand that integration of the build process into the dev utility is a nice-to-have feature. Much appreciate your outline below.
Please let me know if you need help.

We are currently not using the dev tool to build the openSUSE ISO. Everything is done in the build service. The process for that is detailed here: https://en.opensuse.org/OpenStack_and_Crowbar_development_process Basically. we have Jenkins job (currently being migrated to ci.opensuse.org) that regulary pulling the crowbar github repos, and submitting them to the systemsmanagement:crowbar:2.0:staging project here: (https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=systemsmanagement%3Acrowbar%3A2.0%3Astaging) In the project there is also the special package "Crowbar_2.0" which contains a kiwi configuration (that's the tool we use to create all our distribution/product images with: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:KIWI). The build service is able to use that a build a working ISO images for that. You can also build that image locally by just checking out the Crowbar_2.0 package using the osc tool and running "osc build images" inside the checked out directory. Just don't do that on a 12.3 RCs system currently, because the kernel there seems to have a bug that cause the machine to freeze when building images :( (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805732) I hope we will at some point be able to better integrate this with the "normal" workflow of building crowbar. But currently we just have more pressing issues to address. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ Crowbar mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/crowbar For more information: http://crowbar.github.com/
