Anyone Tried to use iPXE to boot with iSCSI?

[dweimer]

I was just trying some proof of concept testing to see if I could get a 
system booting with no local disk using iSCSI running from my FreeNAS 
box.


I got started, by first booting a 9.1-RC1 CD, into live CD, created a 
/tmp/iscsi.conf used kldload to load the iscsi initiator, connected to 
the target, created a gpt boot partition, swap partition and just a 
single / volume using remianing space.  Copied the bootcode, created the 
file system, extracted the system etc.  Created a loader.conf file, 
added the iscsi_initiator_load="YES" option, copied my /tmp/iscsi.conf 
file to the new file system at /etc/iscsi.conf created a /etc/fstab file 
using the gpart labels to mount / and swap partitions.


Booted the system from the iPXE.iso, ran the necessary configuration 
options, connected to the iscsi volume, and booted from it.  It does 
launch the bootcode, as expected, and then breaks failing to mount root.


Whoch I actually expected, I have proved I can install to an iSCSI 
volume, I can connect to that iSCSI volume prior to loading the kernel, 
and load the kernel from it.


What I can't seem to find any information on is how to mount iSCSI 
volumes at boot on FreeBSD, so that the kernel can mount the root 
partition.  Does anyone have any idea how to do this, or if its even 
possible?

I was mistaken, they do.

Looking at /usr/src/share/mk/bsd.prog.mk and /usr/src/share/mk/bsd.lib.mk -
bins and libs get installed with schg if PRECIOUSPROG and PRECIOUSLIB are
set respectively in their makefiles, both of which can be overridden by
setting NO_FSCHG, presumably in /etc/make.conf.

Without this doing jail maintenance/upgrades is a nightmare on a host with
a securelevel of 1 but I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere.

I have both a git and svn checkout of FreeBSD current and while git
contains the full history it takes up less disk space (about 30%):

The entire history of the Linux kernel since switching to git 5 years
ago is stored in a repo that is *less than half the size* of a single
current checkout.

The entire history of the XFree86 project ended up being a repo that was
only 2-3 times the size of the current checkout.

Seriously, don't be afraid of git simply because "it has all the
history".  SVN is already worse because it has a single local backup
copy for every live file, 2x right there.

Re: exclude device from bus probe?

No, that does not work. On a different host, that has an dedicated IPMI 
NIC, I have a dropdown with the alternatives Dedicated, Share and Failover 
but on this I only have a grayed out Share, no alternatives and no choices. 
So this seems to be something hardwired in the MB.


I will do a PR on the hit stuff.

I believe you said em0 is LAN, and em1 is IPMI.

yea i agree with you.  i wonder if it would be worth the effort of
sharing a svn export via rsync or httpd to make fetching delta's
easier and/or more efficient from a base install?


It's an interesting idea.  If the repository files were directly 
accessible in a filesystem, that filesystem could be shared with rsyncd 
and some exclude settings without needing an export at all.  With svn 
bdb, the files are not directly accessible, but I don't know for fsfs. 
Probably not, so a periodic export would still be required.

Although I believe the checkouts are bigger, I do not think they have
all the commit history. This is where SVN and CVS differ from systems
like Git or Mercury, which have all the history in a local working
copy. I think the overhead of SVN consists of backups and cached
copies of the previous revision, but I am not quite sure.


You're right.  'svn blame', for instance, retrieves the history from the 
repository.  So it's not as bad as it could be... but that 700M number 
was from a ports tree checkout.  My source checkout shows 869M in .svn. 
That's a pretty large chunk of bandwidth for data that is useless to 
someone who just wants to do a buildworld, as opposed to actually 
working on the source.

If you are going to make a sweeping change anyway, it makes no sense 
to

do it in a half–assed manned. However, it does appear that in all too
many instances, FreeBSD plays follow the leader rather then taking 
the

bulls by the horns and getting ahead of the curve. I am sure I'll be
hearing from the "baby steps" choir now. In any event, a 
comprehensive
side-by-side evaluation of the two should be done by an impartial 
party.


We should not be forgetting that Git and Subversion represent two 
different
workflows. The latter stands for a centralistic development cycle, and 
the
former for a distributed manner. Thus, this type of choice does not 
really
have to do with big or small steps and leading of following, but more 
about

the production cycle you want to have.
If we were to use a Git-like system, the releng team would (probably) 
be in
control on which patches are excepted from the pool of suggested 
changesets
by the community of developers. This community would be more free in 
the

manner in which they experiment, and there would be a less strong
differentiation between "committers" and other people suggesting 
updates. On
the other hand, our current approach has a controlled group of 
committers
and the releng team only has the additional power of setting the 
schedule

and taking the snapshot that becomes the release. (Gravely simplified.)
It is a matter of taste.

On a side note, using Git does mean that everyone has to download a 
complete
repository. This makes using a csup-like architecture quite 
"heavy-weight".

If you are going to make a sweeping change anyway, it makes no sense to
do it in a half–assed manned. However, it does appear that in all too
many instances, FreeBSD plays follow the leader rather then taking the
bulls by the horns and getting ahead of the curve. I am sure I'll be
hearing from the "baby steps" choir now. In any event, a comprehensive
side-by-side evaluation of the two should be done by an impartial party.

Re: exclude device from bus probe?

[Göran Löwkrantz]

Well, I already tested this in rc.conf:

ifconfig_em0="down"

and it didn't help.

There is an new IPMI 2.66 vs. my running 2.64 that I will test but unless 
someone has any other idea, it seems like I am stuck.

schg flags from installworld

[Gareth de Vaux]

Hi all, I built a jail for the first time but realised I needed to redo
the buildworld. 'make installworld DESTDIR=/usr/jail/ns2' then failed with:

install -C -o root -g wheel -m 444   libc.a /usr/jail/ns2/usr/lib
install -s -o root -g wheel -m 444   -fschg -S  libc.so.7 /usr/jail/ns2/lib

Which I can't change in the current secure level. It seems that the original

Re: exclude device from bus probe?

[Göran Löwkrantz]

No, that won't work. This is the NIC we have traffic over:
em1@pci0:3:0:0:	class=0x02 card=0x10d315d9 chip=0x10d38086 rev=0x00 
hdr=0x00

   vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
   device = '82574L Gigabit Network Connection'
   class  = network
   subclass   = ethernet

So to be exact, I need em0 to not be probed while em1 is probed and 
attached.

... just to quickly add, X installs a simple window manager called twm. Just to

Ok, that shows your graphics card will support Xorg. What options did you 
select when you built X server from ports?

Also, after you've installed Xorg you need to install a window manager or 
desktop like KDE, Gnome, Fluxbox, ...

Then you need to create the file .xinitrc in your home directory; it should 
contain something like this:

exec spectrwm

Spectrwm is the Window Manager I use, so xinit uses the exec command to start 
the window manager, in my case spectrwm.

Have you done that yet?

The difference is that a local svn checkout has all the commit
history. A comparison recently showed 700-some megabytes more space
used by the svn checkout.


Although I believe the checkouts are bigger, I do not think they have
all the commit history. This is where SVN and CVS differ from systems
like Git or Mercury, which have all the history in a local working
copy. I think the overhead of SVN consists of backups and cached
copies of the previous revision, but I am not quite sure.

I'm not sure why linux would be included in that path at the end there, perhaps 
that was a typo?

 Did you use the command:   Xorg -configure ?

from the command prompt as the root user first?
