A

So we're still trying to build our hybrid.

A

A

And fedora distro with the SSI service built in and um we're also going to put the Curie stuff in there, because that sounds interesting. So there's links to that in the logs.

A

um Okay, let's get this going, I think we're going to be able to remove the pixie stuff from this I think we're going to be able to move directly into the EFI and then just set the init script to be a little thing: that'll Mount, the proc and stuff. Instead of doing the rch route, just go and install the blue loader and then run with no reboot, also with the kernel with the EFI to the Linux kernel, which will copy out here, we need to copy that out. So that's what we're getting here! We do.

A

Copy out um and we're in the digital ocean VM again, okay, I spent it back up when I posted the spam, so um so copy out, eternal or use for our first time.

A

So this would be our we can take this, and this will be our image now right now we can just spin VM images off Docker files. I've been wanting to do this for years, but I can never I never have time so now, I'm, finally I, don't know I'm gonna I'm, just not sick of it, but we need it. We need it. We need okay.

A

um So it's just it's silly that we don't have this so um so copy out kernel for use- and maybe somebody else has this, but I don't know, but I want it to be very specifically to be two scripts right.

A

One Docker file, basically three script, one build that, but that's the pipeline and then the docker file, which defines the OS and then the boot with the VM right and ideally, we can just get rid of this freaking bootloader installation problem eventually, but of one a single pass, a single pass, bootloader installation I think is an acceptable one.

A

Now this does require a VM right because we need the loopback to mount on, um which is a restriction for this uh creation process, but you could potentially use user space, Linux I'm, not sure, but I I think that might be an option um if you had to run it within a container or something you didn't have access to any sort of virtualization but I'm, not sure so, uh eventually, we'll get there.

A

Okay, because we needed to run in any environment, okay, so again, I just added another partition. So this is the main thing that we saw. The difference between this and last is now the Fedora partition is basically a five gigabyte route, and then we have a 15 gigabyte route and I updated it to from 20 to 30. So we have 10 gigabytes of swap or we have. We have our our 500 and or we have our.

A

We have our uh 160 megabyte fat 32, it's GPT, it's 532, 160 megabytes for the EFI boot partition and then uh it's 10 gigabytes of swap it's five gigabytes for the Fedora root right, because that's basically just our system D um and then uh it's the rest is Wolfie right for 15 gigabytes. um That's the final line! So um that's part four part partition four. So then, and so what we did is we flipped. We had Wolfie as the root and then Fedora as the uh as a as a CH root.

A

um uh But then we flipped it around and you'll see the docker files flip now so, but that was so. We still haven't booted into it yet um because we're trying to put Wolfie within the wolfy root, because previously we didn't have a separate, bind Mount, okay and then it just worked out easier, but now we're trying to do it from from the we're trying to copy them, so we're going into some issues with move command and then okay. So, oh, what is.

A

That EFI and all right, let's see what you say: what's the other one, what did I say to read and then I don't know what we could do we'll just.

A

A

Before a good idea, all right.

A

Okay, so then we'll have a VM all right, um wait what's that if you want to do.

A

And we're in now I'm in Windows terminal and so instead of.

A

A

A

Okay, all right: okay, okay,.

A

A

A

Yeah, well, that's basically the same thing: it's just it's it's a copy over because we're copying from the local what's an SCP in them, and this is that dissolution.

A

Okay, so it's creating the image, it's copying off the uh so it's it started the docker, because I can't I can't figure out how to just export a Docker container from from where it is I know that I know, there's a way and I know I should but I don't know what it is so I just start the container and I copy it out right. So uh and now it's unhappy with us so.

A

Why are you now so then we copied out and then I wanted to copy, because with the bind mounts, so you can't just copy right into the bind Mount. But then why are you trying to rmrf right there? Where did you rmrf immediately? Okay,.

A

That should be brought me out. Okay um also, why would you do that? How would you do that? Why would you want to have that? Oh, no, that's! Staging okay! Yeah! Do that at the end, okay, um yeah! Do that at the end, please.

A

All right, that's my bad. Let's try that again, all right! Let's.

A

A

So we remove the image we recopy over the script and we run the script again.

A

The problem was here, thank you.

A

A

Right, it should have been that so so now, okay.

A

Let me just check out so it's not you're, not happy.

A

A

A

Oh come on, is it done? Do I need another one. After done.

A

Did you get that just a bit I just want to update.

A

I didn't want to not make a video in so long so.
