Bug#474034: ITP: gpxe -- PXE network bootloader for x86 PCs

2010-08-06 Thread Vagrant Cascadian
daniel and i talked about trying to upload a stripped down upload that at least
supports the NICs used by qemu/qemu-kvm, in order to simplify the licensing
issues.

this is getting more important, as newer versions of qemu don't seem to work
well with etherboot.

live well,

Bug#474034: ITP: gpxe -- PXE network bootloader for x86 PCs

2010-03-31 Thread Vagrant Cascadian
well, i've updated debian/copyright as best i can, but the last few entries are
a bit dubious.

there are numerous files with no licensing claims other than upstreams headers:

  FILE_LICENCE( GPL2_OR_LATER );

there are some with no copyright holder.

there also numerous files with no licensing declarations whatsoever...

so i added:

 Files: ...
 Copyright: unknown
 License: FILE_LICENCE( GPL_ANY );

 ...

 Files: ...
 Copyright: unknown
 License: unknown

to at least document which need more work and clarification from upstream.

live well,

2010-03-28 Thread Vagrant Cascadian
i've been working on my own local copy of the git repository daniel posted, and
am currently updating the debian/copyright file as best i can and some other
minor fixes.

i don't have write access to the repositories at debian-maintainers.org, so i
can't push changes there, but i could publish changes somewhere else in the
meantime.

i think i can get this ready to upload in the first week of april.

live well,

the freshly cloned repository only ever seems to have a single commit, so i

i'm not real savvy with git, but i don't have this problem with other git

because it's not fast-forward until 0.9,9-1 is finished.

because there's a couple of changes i've not yet finished that let the 
package not build in the meanwhile.

Thanks for taking this over, i've been overwhelmed with RL stuff for
some time. :/

We should consider adding a small package shipping just the ROMs needed
for qemu/kvm (which are currently pxe-ne2k_pci.bin, pxe-rtl8139.bin,
pxe-e1000.bin and pxe-pcnet.bin - 32kB each).

Best regards,

Jan

i'll have a look at some other worthwile build targets that i'll enable 
in the main binary package (gpxe), and split the others out for qemu/kvm 
into gpxe-qemu.

2009-12-07 Thread Daniel Baumann

Hi,

i've prepared an updated package based on the ones from vagrant, git is 
available here:


  git clone git://git.debian-maintainers.org/git/syslinux/gpxe.git

and .deb packages here:

  deb http://syslinux.debian-maintainers.org/ sid/snapshots main

Until an initial upload can happen, there needs to be debian/copyright 
fixed (which I'll do this friday afternoon), and a few cosmetical things 
should be fixed as well.


Once above is done, i'll write you again to ask for review and comments, 
and then it could be uploaded.


Regards,
Daniel

i've been tracking upstream, and been pondering taking over the ITP, though the
license review on it is still rather intimidatingly large in scope. there's
definitely interest from upstream to try and work out whatever licensing issues
may arise, but it's just a lot to review.

i'd be very interested in getting gpxe uploaded to debian and
co-maintenaning it, if help is desired.

i've built some packages of gpxe with only the iso, usb, dsk, lkrn and
pdsk images(some of the rom images failed to build):

  http://llama.freegeek.org/~vagrant/debian/UNRELEASED/

though those packages still need a proper debian/copyright.

Today, is a good day... Not only did I discovered that qemu is now
capable of netbooting, with NIC ROM.
But I was about to request qemu and etherboot maintainers to provide a
small package, which only provides the ROMs for qemu
(in /usr/share/qemu)... then I noticed that you maintain KVM and you ITP
gPXE.. great !

I wondered if I could help somehow.

gPXE provides a direct replacement for proprietary PXE ROMs, with many
extra features such as DNS, HTTP, iSCSI.
It can be stored in a number of places, including BIOS Flash, EPROMs,
floppy, CD, HD, or other bootable media.

gPXE evolved from Etherboot and is maintained by the Etherboot project.
It will supersede Etherboot eventually.
