Re: [Xen-devel] Easy Fedora rootfs recipe sought
maybe i'm doing something wrong but it just does not seems to work for me.
first it was complainign that it could not find pgp keys, then it would
complain that var/cache/yum does not exists.
comemnts?
it is how i try to do it :
rpm --root=/mnt/RHFC3 --import
http://fedora.redhat.com/about/security/4F2A6FD2.txt
rpm --root=/mnt/RHFC3 --import
http://fedora.redhat.com/about/security/30C9ECF8.txt
rpm --root=/mnt/RHFC3 --import
http://fedora.redhat.com/about/security/1CDDBCA9.txt
mkdir -p /mnt/RHFC3/var/cache/yum
yum --installroot=/mnt/RHFC3 -y groupinstall Base
current error is :
[root@mtdew rpm]# yum --installroot=/mnt/RHFC3 -y groupinstall Base
Setting up Group Process
Setting up Repo: base
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
[root@mtdew rpm]# cat /etc/redhat-release

A neat invocation:
yum --installroot=/mnt -y groupinstall Base
is shown in this document, which reminds of the ease of debootstrap.
In the next release of XenCD, I've got a full walkthrough of using
debootstrap to create a live Debian domU in addition to the ttylinux
domUs that are automatically created.
I'd love to support the creation of Fedora rootfs's entirely within
XenCD as well. I can find no yum *.deb out there, so it looks like
I'd need incorporate RPM debs, maybe Python 2.4, and make a yum *.deb
to jury rig this together. This may be more work and QA than I'm up
for right now, though it doesn't look all that hard.
So I'm looking for either a lighter way to install Fedora into a
directory via a script, or possible help to integrate the yum package
itself into XenCD, or a contributed script that can create a Fedora
rootfs (written in either sh, Perl, or Python).
Another approach might be to distributed a compressed rootfs on the
CD, which I might do for Debian as well, but that would end up as a
separate branch from the lean 32 Mb ISO we've got now.
