From YouTube: Architecting Alice: Volume 0: Part 87: Rolling an OS

Description

https://github.com/intel/dffml/discussions/1406#discussioncomment-3710510

A

Foreign, let's go, we are going to uh roll an OS right now, um so damn it it's gonna happen all right. So what we're gonna do is not going to get distracted on Twitter, um but we are going to on tweet.

A

So um foreign, where did it go you're, probably in the office.

A

So our wonderful friends, Ed chain guard have.

A

uh Created a undistro.

A

um

A

Foreign, so let's grab this Twitter link and write it through curl, because, okay, so basically, what do they have? They have a Linux distro that we can't boot. Oh well, that's actually a fantastic thing, because um kernel is specific right to to what Hardware you're running on and uh most of us have different Hardware. So it really doesn't matter to me. You know what other people's Hardware is because I have you know my Hardware right.

A

So what we can do and and other people have their Hardware right and so a distro is trying to make it so that it does matter like it does matter and we're going to make it so it works for everybody right. But if we have this, what what they dubbed a undist row, then uh basically they Supply user space and we can supply kernel space.

A

um And so what we're going to do is we're going to roll together some images um and uh where it is.

A

So we're going to roll some images um and where is it new Linux kernel development, okie dokie, so we're gonna build the Linux kernel and actually you know we might steal one from somewhere else. Why don't we just steal one from somewhere else and we don't have to build it: fantastic, okay, let's steal fedoras, because Dora runs Fedora, okay, so fedora, okay, so Fedora Linux should have a nice RPM for us. Okay.

A

So let's go find uh Dora, RPMs!

A

Okay! Actually wait a minute! Wait! A minute! Wait a minute! Wait! A minute! Wait! A minute! Wait! A minute.

A

Is this wsl2.

A

Where are we? What are we on WSL, two? Okay, so this thing should run Docker right.

A

That's probably a dumb question: why don't we start a virtual machine, because I think we've gone down this past many times. Wait! No!.

A

Okay, so what do we want to do? We want to create a uh uh uh um it's? It's a it's, a multi-stage, build right, and so we're going to take some of the container from uh good old chain guard and we're going to take some of the container from Fedora and what are we going to take from Fedora? Well we're going to take. Oh I already have the code we're looking at the code: duh, okay, um even better? Okay, this is fantastic news. Okay, so do we have qmu?

A

No! Does that work?

A

Qmuw SL2?

A

Can you hear me hello? Yes, you can all right. So, let's find out running qmu on wsl2 yeah, because I was in the KVM code and I saw they have a bunch of uh hyper-v stuff in there now so accelerated. Can we guess so? Let's go ahead. Let's, let's document our Rabbit Hole here and I was thinking. We should start documenting okay. This is the same, but this is probably like. Let's get rid of this because I don't have time to go, do performance enhancements on whisper, okay.

A

um What is today the 23rd.

A

um

A

Okay, so what are we gonna? Do, let's build a distro.

A

Foreign I'm going to put that lightly. You know this is like.

A

Okay, let's roll Linux, fistro or, let's see what what is this. This is like coach, Alice.

A

Online image.

A

Rolling average yeah I like rolling image, okay, cool.

A

Rolling base all right, so this will be, um let's see Okay so.

A

This would be the base image.

A

Hotels or let's see what could we call this um I think I mean we could make a tutorial out of this right. We can make a tutorial at anything right so.

A

What are we gonna? Do we're going to maybe I'll just maybe I'll, just maybe we'll just uh maybe we'll name it later.

A

Okay, so.

A

Okay, we're going to take user space from what is this thing called.

A

Wolfie.

A

And kernel from fedora, okay, we will build a curiumu or we will verify that the OS.

A

Let's build an operating system; this is this is how easy it becomes if they've done it correctly here, which is exactly what I'm sure they've done so we're gonna, we're gonna see how it goes. Let's build an operating system.

A

Foreign.

A

Environment, we will then.

A

uh

A

Okay, we will then boot to an Arch Linux live USB, and can we just do it? We might even be able to oh I. Don't have that cable I can't find it. I have a USB to 3.5 millimeter, but it's not around. At least I can't find it okay. So then we'll bootune live Arch, lab Linux, USB uh format and install a bootloader format, disk formatted disk and install a bootloader.

A

What I'm going to format a disk um write the contents of our new operating system.

A

Two.

A

The part two to the root partition.

A

Install bootloader, uh okay, yeah and actually you know.

A

System B might uh provide us with this built in so uh we're going to uh we'll Leverage.

A

Qmu.

A

For our last environment and Reg, genuine new tools, genuine tools.

A

To download container image contacts okay, so this is uh You're gonna, laugh at how you're gonna laugh, You're gonna laugh at How. uh You're gonna laugh. um If this goes as expected, you will laugh um so why? Why do I say you will laugh well, okay, so you told her I think, there's one more! Is there a I think we need not to mention too much. We don't care about that.

A

Okay yeah, so this shows us some formatting here, so uh this yeah. This is some formatting that um you know this. This is how you format the disk, but this is for a virtual machine. So but it's basically the same thing.

A

Can we maybe.

A

We'll look at this.

A

Now we can't like 50 degree, can we call out lines explicitly.

A

Is this Alice OS? This is Alice OS. Okay, that's hilarious! I! Guess! That's what we'll call it.

A

Or maybe, let's see.

A

Foreign.

A

Okay, let's just call it Alice Alice OS,.

A

This really doesn't seem like a Coach House tutorial. I think this is definitely not a Coach House tutorial. I think this is definitely hey. Alex is interesting. One brilliant tutorial.

A

It doesn't seem like health of the ecosystem, it seems like analysis Adventure in Wonderland and why do I say that? Because that's when we're going to start getting into other deployments right um so uh probably like some iot and Edge stuff?

A

um And so then, when we roll these images like I, was talking about custom Hardware, uh we'll we'll be uh we'll be rolling them for that Hardware! Okay! So let's, let's do it so Alice's I mean we said we were going to jump around and I'll choose.

A

It's a good first one: okay, Alice has been true in Wonderland, Alice, OS. Okay, just take this here onto the engineering lock.

A

That's what we did today any other things: okay, so Alice is Alice OS.

A

Okay,.

A

So and then what did I want when I wanted to put that.

A

Now it won't do it.

A

Questions yeah I just want to put this.

A

Under.

A

These are like sort of you know, grouped by a category okay, Okay, so.

A

Okay, so um let's go, do it? Okay, so let's grab here's Reg.

A

So let's go run this stuff.

A

Okay, great, so this is a tool that hasn't been updated in a while, um but uh it will download fedora so and we're tied. Then that's what this does. So it's that's already what it does. So, basically, this is going to go, download, Fedora and extract it for us. Okay. So now.

A

We would like to.
