[02:17] <me> Hi
[02:17] <Guest40410> how can I run an executable in sandbox ?
[04:13] <holstein> Guest40410: what executable? what sandbox?
[04:22] <Guest40410> I need to run a program that I'm not sure about it's safety. I need a software to a technique that ensure that the program doesn't change the state of my operating system and my data.
[04:22] <Guest40410> software 'or' a technique
[04:23] <holstein> Guest40410: if im not sure, i dont run it.. what program? what sandbox?
[04:24] <holstein> Guest40410: i would argue, a live CD is a type of sandbox
[04:24] <Guest40410> sandbox technology exist in softwares on operating system
[04:24] <holstein> Guest40410: sure
[04:24] <holstein> Guest40410: what are you trying to do? the live CD wont work for you?
[04:24] <Guest40410> sandboxie for example, it is a software for windows
[04:25] <holstein> !chroot
[04:25] <holstein> Guest40410: will a live CD not work?
[04:26] <Guest40410> yeah, I knew about chroot, I can even create a new user, and run the program with that user
[04:27] <Guest40410> but this ensure file system security
[04:27] <holstein> Guest40410: what would i do?
[04:27] <Guest40410> how about other aspects of it ?
[04:27] <holstein> Guest40410: remove the hard driver if i was that concerned, and run it from a live CD
[04:27] <holstein> Guest40410: will a live CD not work?
[04:27] <holstein> Guest40410: virtualbox install with a snapshot?
[04:27] <holstein> Guest40410: a chroot?
[04:28] <Guest40410> LiveCD works, I can even use virtual machines, but I want a way which is convenient, non resource intensive and quick.
[04:28] <holstein> Guest40410: do you want safe? of convenient?
[04:28] <holstein> or*
[04:28] <Guest40410> both :-)
[04:28] <holstein> Guest40410: the ways above are isolated
[04:29] <Guest40410> those are hardcore
[04:29] <holstein> might want to try http://www.docker.io/
[04:29] <holstein> Guest40410: i dont think a live CD is hard core
[04:29] <holstein> http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/37396/docker-containers-made-easy-las-s27e01/
[04:29] <Guest40410> yeah that's cool.
[04:30] <Guest40410> it a virtual environment management tool, isn't?
[04:31] <holstein> Guest40410: its a sandbox.. a jail..
[04:31] <Guest40410> I think chroot or running under another user works for me.
[04:32] <holstein> Guest40410: think?
[04:32] <holstein> the other user will only isolate certain things.. and might be exploitable
[04:32] <holstein> Guest40410: what would i do? live CD... what do i think would work? docker or chroot
[04:32] <Guest40410> but there is a linux software 'arkose', which is exactly what I want. but it has bugs under ubuntu 13.04
[04:33] <holstein> Guest40410: ?
[04:33] <holstein> Guest40410: so, install 12.04.. or deal with or fix the bugs.. or use one of the other options
[04:34] <holstein> wont hurt to try docker
[04:34] <Guest40410> thanks for the tips :-)
[04:34] <Guest40410> yeah I should try it
[04:34] <Guest40410> If it use lxc underneath, it should be pretty fast
[05:03] <duanedesign> o/
[09:47] <klemzy> I need help with network
[13:26] <Phryq> hey, I'm trying to fresh install ubuntu from a USB disk, but I get a bootloader error when I try to do so. I'm using Unetbootin and downloaded from the torrent. I tried deleting everything on the flash drive and re-installing twice. Same error each time
[13:43] <Phryq> the hash is the same
