| Ford_Prefect | Anyone tried booting a rootstock generate rootfs with NFS? | 06:40 |
|---|---|---|
| Ford_Prefect | The dratted NM seems to be pulling down the network for a restart, which breaks because it's running from NFS | 06:41 |
| lool | Ford_Prefect: Right there's a bug with NM breaking network on NFS (that's not related to rootstock I think) | 09:28 |
| lool | I've seen it filed on Debian it's probably reported in Ubuntu as well | 09:28 |
| Ford_Prefect | lool, ah, okay. I worked around it by putting an exit in /etc/default/NetworkManager | 09:45 |
| lool | Ford_Prefect: eh I guess that works | 09:55 |
| lool | I seem to recall that one issue was that there was some chicken and egg issue with /usr needed for NM to start and NM being needed to get /usr from NFS | 09:56 |
| lool | But then in your case what you really want is for NM to start without touching the network | 09:56 |
| Ford_Prefect | lool, it's a pretty hard problem to crack in a please-all way, I guess. | 10:23 |
| lool | Ford_Prefect: Yeah exactly | 10:57 |
| lool | Ford_Prefect: That said, your bug would probably be fixed if NM was careful not to wipe clean the network config when starting up to replace it with its own | 10:58 |
| Ford_Prefect | Guess it would be a little hard to make sure that no network access is required between when NM starts touching the config and when it finishes setup | 11:12 |

| lbt | anyone familar with dpkg-cross. I'm hitting issues with -dcv1 vs -cross how do I make -dcv1 packages? | 13:13 |
| lool | lbt: We're building our own or using the codesourcery ones | 14:48 |
| lbt | so I'm approaching this by setting debian/target=armel and then debian/rules control to make a gcc-cross. | 14:49 |
| lbt | is that you mean by "building our own"? | 14:50 |
| lool | lbt: Install binutils-source or grab the source yourself, same for gcc and build these | 14:51 |
| lbt | OK. I want to integrate this into the OBS build system - building from source is fairly simple. I'd like to track the gcc as shipped by ubuntu so we have version match | 14:52 |
| lbt | I'll check out emdebian though - thanks for that :) | 14:52 |
| lool | lbt: Note that I'm not making a recommendation of emdebian, but the tools you mention are emdebian ones so they are the people who can help you use them | 15:03 |
| lool | (IOW I don't use them myself) | 15:03 |
| lbt | that's fair... NB my objective is to produce a cross compiler to install (elegantly) into a qemu chroot | 15:04 |
| lbt | I would like to base it on gcc.dsc | 15:04 |
| lbt | so as gcc evolves with Jaunty/Karmic | 15:05 |
| lbt | I can update my chroot build env to match | 15:05 |
| lbt | currently dpkg-cross seems a viable way to do it using debuild... | 15:06 |
| rjune_ | lbt: I use crosstool-ng to build for our platform. Though we're building a complete distro, not just building for debian or ubuntu | 15:32 |
| lbt | rjune_: My objective is a drop-in replacement for gcc_XXX_armel in a qemu-chroot | 15:34 |
| lbt | s/drop-in/kinda drop-in/ | 15:34 |
| rjune_ | then crosstool probably isn't for you, did emdebian prove helpful? | 15:36 |
| lbt | I've not brought it up yet.... I actually found a maybe solution | 15:43 |
| lbt | waiting for my turn in the build sched | 15:44 |
| lbt | ooh... finished but not finalised.... | 15:44 |
| lool | Hmm I don't remember finding crosstools-ng last time I was looking for such stuff | 15:53 |
| lool | Seems nice | 15:53 |
