| smoser | nturner, theres a lot of variables there. | 01:30 |
|---|---|---|
| smoser | curtin basically suports 2 image formats: | 01:30 |
| smoser | a.) .tar.gz (root tarball of /). curtin in one way or another needs to know a lot about the internels of such a thing... it has to be able to create a filesystem , extract the tar, and then make the thing boot (by grub-install or something) | 01:31 |
| smoser | b.) dd-img this curtin will just 'dd' to the first disk, and fingers crossed. | 01:32 |
| smoser | you possibly have something that you can dd, but you possibly have somethign that would have no hope of booting on hardware. | 01:32 |

| jojden | how can get details from node/details | 10:51 |

| kiko | jojden, can you send me the raw BSON data somehow? | 14:37 |
| kiko | jojden, I'm writing an answer and wanted to test | 14:37 |

| nturner | smoser, ok, so the component that actually deploys the image to the hardware is called curtin. I'll see if I can dig up some info on that. | 18:31 |
| nturner | I'm fairly confident my image will boot on the hardware I have (it's built using a process used to image real hardware via other means, so it has grub configured correctly on the MBR etc.) but I don't know the details of how maas (or curtin) wants the dd-tgz file to be laid out. | 18:34 |
| smoser | well, i'd start with https://maas.ubuntu.com/docs/os-support.html | 18:35 |
| nturner | smoser, that's where I started before I came here. I got far enough to realize I lacked key information. :) | 18:35 |
| smoser | the dd-tgz is a gzip compressed tarball for sparseness of a single file. | 18:36 |
| smoser | curtin selects which disk it thinks is "first" | 18:36 |
| nturner | do the tarball has a single member. does that member have to have a specific name? | 18:36 |
| smoser | (ie, which would be likely to have the bios boot from it) | 18:36 |
| nturner | s/do/so | 18:36 |
| smoser | and then uncompress tarball | extract file-to-stdout | dd if=- of=/dev/disk | 18:36 |
| smoser | i dont think so | 18:37 |
| smoser | checking | 18:37 |
| nturner | and by "disk" here we mean the whole disk (e.g. /dev/sda) not some partition? | 18:37 |
| nturner | it sounds like this is exactly what I had hoped | 18:38 |
| smoser | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~curtin-dev/curtin/trunk/view/head:/curtin/commands/block_meta.py#L75 | 18:39 |
| smoser | nturner, yes a disk. like /dev/sda | 18:39 |
| nturner | smoser, nice :) that is the kind of specific info i was looking for | 18:40 |
| mup | Bug #1597044 opened: maas documentation is incorrect about the maas user home directory <MAAS:Confirmed> <https://launchpad.net/bugs/1597044> | 18:55 |
| nturner | smoser, thanks for the code pointer. I think I see my first problem (curtin expects the rootfs in the image to have a /curtin directory). | 18:58 |
| * nturner modifies the image creation process... | 18:58 | |

| pacavaca_ | found that in the docs, nevermind. Sorry for not looking there first. | 20:49 |
