  XOpup-2.0, puppy linux for the XO-1 and XO-1.5 is released At 92MB
  has the puppy linux feel, an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS core and utilizes all
  the XO features.

i played with this image while debugging a kbdshim issue that yioryos
spotted, and i really must recommend it -- when he says above, puppy
linux for the XO-1 and XO-1.5, what he means is a single image which
boots on either laptop, which is slick, and we should perhaps be
thinking along those lines going forward.  and i'll at least be
keeping a copy of xopup handy for times when i've made my main install
unbootable.  (yes, it happens :-)

Sascha did this first with Debian, and I expanded on the idea with
my Ubuntu and Tiny Core builds, both of which contain two kernels with an
OpenFirmware script that chooses between them based on hardware model
property.

I didn't think it was so important for OLPC OS, since the install file
format is not common between XO-1 and XO-1.5.  .img vs .zd

Re: [Server-devel] wwwoffle?

2011-02-21 Thread Dan Zubey
Well, I had been wondering where was the *appropriate* place to post it. 
heh. I've uploaded it to http://openincident.com/download/xs-wwwoffle.sh 
and http://openincident.com/download/xs-wwwoffle-conf.tgz

The first is the actual script, the second is a tarball of the config 
files for under /etc/xs-wwwoffle. Under root dir, just tar xzvf 
xs-wwwoffle-conf.tgz

The script does significant checking to make sure the new config 
directory is there, and moves the default xs-wwwoffle out of the way.

I spent some time adding checks to see if squid is actually used, and 
doesn't start it up if it's not there. So if you don't want to have the 
script use squid, just simply chmod 644 /usr/sbin/squid

The script and configuration does not touch the cache, and I've disabled 
auto purging. Even so, do make a backup copy of the pre-primed cache 
directory before use.

To use the script, just run it with xs-wwwoffle.sh start. It does it's 
checks, and forks the check loop into the background. You can stop the 
check loop, disable wwwoffle and re-enable squid (if applicable) with 
xs-wwwoffle.sh stop.

I'm sure it's far from perfect, but let me know what issues there are, 
and I'll try my best to fix.

Thanks,

-Dan

 Okay, I have an initial cut of the script, and it works well on my laptop.
 Can I pass this along to someone to test? How should I publish it?
 If you don't have means to publish it, you can use pastebin (or a
 clone), or  attach it to the email :-)
