Hey Nio,
I spent some time testing ISOmaker with Ubuntu Xenial just to see how
well it would work out of the box.
And honestly the ISOmaker scripts worked well, and only require a
bit of
adjustment, which were all good future-proofing adjustments anyhow,
which will allow easy implementation of future Ubuntu/Debian versions.
The liveCD booted and worked well.... however OBI had a few issues.
In *functions*
if [[ "$ltest0" == "/cow" ]] || [[ "$ltest0" == "aufs" ]] || [[
"$ltest0" == "rootfs" ]]
then
needed to include overlay (or at least I think this will work)
if [[ "$ltest0" == "/cow" ]] || [[ "$ltest0" == "aufs" ]] || [[
"$ltest0" == "rootfs" ]] *|| [[ "$ltest0" == "overlay" ]]*
then
Secondly I modified the select_device()
to use a 'common' function
list_device_dialog()
which can also be used by grub-installer
This may introduce a bug... so I will test it, but if it works as it
should it will simplify future modifications by using the same code to
list devices (similar to the list_device) script
I will be testing it in a new xenial iso I am working on.
reverting the changes will be trivial (since we use bzr for version
control)
so if things don't work in xenial or mess up jessie it will be easy to
revert.
I think this test is important as the next Debian version may well use
the new format for the squashfs.
It may be that I need to rework things further and this will need
to be
put off but I want to let you know:
a) I am still working on things
I will attempt to build a xenial and a jessie ISO and test both of
them
to see if the change breaks (or fixes) either of them.
I am much better versed in Bash these days, so making a change like
this
should be trivial, but there is a possibility that I do not fully
understand Nio's code and overlooked something important.
The other important change is in *user-config*
I changed
DISTRO=$(chroot "${CHROOT}" bash -c "uname -v")
To:
DISTRO=$(chroot "${CHROOT}" bash -c "uname *-a*")
and added
[[ "${DISTRO/Ubuntu}" != "${DISTRO}" ]] && [[ "${DISTRO/ 4.?.?}" !=
"${DISTRO}" ]] && LOGecho "This release of Ubuntu kernel does not
support non PAE $DISTRO" && return
in the cpu() function after it checks the 64bit portion, as xenial has
no non-pae kernel so it is already a PAE kernel
I am building this in
ppa:israeldahl/obi-unstable
So there should be no issues with our current progress in jessie

Hi Nio,
I tested it pretty well, and found the major bugs, and issues.
i will rebuild in the unstable ppa and make an ISO for testing (if you
like)
The major issue was the needed harware detector for Debian (it checks
for missing firmware and installs it in Debian... non free proprietary
stuff like wifi dongles etc...)
This is a good fix because we may want to base on Ubuntu again at some
point, and both versions will be about the same, as I use Ubuntu to
build things (and run ToriOS in xenial) so I know the tools work.
Yes Israel,
It is a good idea to make an ISO for testing in Xenial.
Best regards
Nio
Here is the link for this test ISO.
http://phillw.net/isos/torios/ToriOS-2016-08-19-beta-xenial.iso
Let me know how it goes. I tested it a few times, and the install (at
basic level) works.
Network in the Live session did NOT work.
Everything else worked as expected in the installed system
Hi Israel, and all other toriosadores,
Yes, it works like you explained. I ran the OBI-installer at the
advanced level, and it worked :-)
The network does not work in the live system, but it works in the
installed system. I checked according to these links

sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf
In section [ifupdown] find the line managed=false and replace it with
managed=true. Save and quit.

This method helps me get systems made via the Ubuntu mini.iso portable
(with automatic networking), but it did not make any difference. I think
we have to look closely at the difference between a working Lubuntu live
system and our live ToriOS-xenial system.
Best regards
Nio
