Make LiveCD of current Arch system

I would like to make my current Arch system bootable from CD/DVD/USB.. So I can boot it on any PC just like it is, that will not make any changes to PC that will boot it, etc.
Thanks

That's kind of vague, and unless you have a very minimalistic arch install, I doubt it's feasible to do with a CD. I'd say a USB thumbdrive would probably be your best option so that you wouldn't be slowed down by your optical drive reading everything off a DVD. I think it would probably just be easier to install Arch on to a USB drive and copy over all the necessary config files for the programs you'd want to use on it. I'm pretty sure most of what you'd need to do this is already available on the wiki. Check out Here and the beginners guide if you need it, and you should be able to do all this on your own.
Edit: Well, I was beaten to it while looking around for stuff. Still, everything you need is out there already, here or on the wiki.

[SOLVED]possible to make live image of a current running arch system?

Hi Friends!!!. Is it possible to make live iso image of a current running arch system? are there any tools available for that?(I want to do this cause When i install a new arch system, I want to remain my own customizations intact)
Last edited by Pranavg1890 (2012-10-14 07:29:58)

OK, so after reading the posts, I think that this is not possible.but i think this sould be feature which should be researched upon cause everytime I install arch on a new machine(arch reinstalls on same machine are very rare cause it's a rolling release and has excellent recovery tools) I have to spend a 5-6 hours of time configuring the system.so, i think it should be a feauture that should be worked upon.for eg. like you could chroot into the iso created and then replace the deafult configs by the one on your system or a system scanner which scans the changes on the system with respect to default arch installation and make the necessary changes to the live image.Thanks friends for your replies. I mark this thread as solved.

ArchTaz Live: boot and run an Arch system entirely in RAM

ArchTaz Live Boot: A method to boot and run an Arch system entirely in RAM using tmpfs.
As the name suggests it was inspired by (copied entirely from) SliTaz http://www.slitaz.org/ and boots in exacly the same way.
It needs a custom init script in the root directory and for some reason that I can't work out a hook for sysinit_premount in rc.sysinit to remount / rw.
The /usr/bin/archfs script is just a chunk of Slitaz's Tazusb utility with some minor changes (and I haven't properly tested the lzma or no compression).
The /init script is modified from the usual initramfs /usr/lib/initcpio/init with hints from the SliTaz /init script (and some personal additions for my system).
Copy init to the root directory, run archfs (eg. # archfs writefs gzip) and move the resulting archfs.gz to your boot partition/directory and boot with archfs.gz as your initrd.
I run a fairly light system (Openbox, Firefox, Gnome-Mplayer, SpaceFM, no dev packages) and gzip compression gives me an archfs.gz just over 230MB that boots in just over 30 seconds using 138MB RAM on startup, and most applications start instantly (2GHz Core2Duo, 4G RAM). Lzma compression generally gives a smaller archfs.gz but takes longer to boot. I have a persistent home partition, I install packages as I need them and then they're gone on next reboot if I don't do a new archfs.gz to keep them. I delete man pages, unneeded locales, etc. Obviously if you're running a hefty install on a limited box you may run into problems.
Any tips, cleanups, corrections welcome. It's been a mostly copy and paste and mash stuff together process so it isn't neat. And I think I may need some serious help when systemd becomes default.

Oh yes any man directory was symlinked to /tmp long ago, so they don't even get installed.
Right, new boot process:
Using hooks in normal initramfs-linux.img to unpack archfs.gz into tmpfs and boot it.
Create an initcpio preset file /etc/mkinitcpio.d/archfs.preset:
# mkinitcpio preset file for the 'archfs' package
ALL_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"
ALL_kver="/boot/vmlinuz-linux"
PRESETS=('archfs')
archfs_config="/etc/mkinitcpio.conf"
archfs_image="/boot/archfs-linux.lzo"
archfs_options="-S fsck -A tmpfs -z lzop"
Or append to the standard 'linux.preset' file so the initramfs is created automatically when you upgrade your kernel. Or alter /etc/mkinitcpio.conf to add options.
Create the file /lib/initcpio/hooks/tmpfs:
#!/usr/bin/ash
run_latehook() {
# Mount tmpfs root
mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
# Unpack rootfs
msg "Unpacking rootfs..."
cd /mnt
# parse the kernel command line
parse_cmdline
for archfs in ${archfs//,/ }; do
if [ "$archfs" = "xz" ]; then
xz -d < /new_root/boot/archfs.xz | cpio -imd --no-absolute-filenames > /dev/null 2>&1
elif [ "$archfs" = "gzip" ]; then
gzip -dc /new_root/boot/archfs.gz | cpio -imd --no-absolute-filenames > /dev/null 2>&1
elif [ "$archfs" = "lzo" ]; then
lzop -d < /new_root/boot/archfs.lzo | cpio -imd --no-absolute-filenames > /dev/null 2>&1
elif [ "$archfs" = "img" ]; then
cpio -imd --no-absolute-filenames /new_root/boot/archfs.img > /dev/null 2>&1

# vim: set ft=sh ts=4 sw=4 et:
This loads modules and fsck binaries for the filesystem of my /boot partition into the initramfs. It also adds all the relevant compression binaries (some which can also be compiled into busybox or left out if not needed). I'm working on automatically reading the filesystem from your /boot partition based on the "root=" kernel command line option and adding the appropriate modules.
Create a new archfs.gz (or new extensions) with new cleaned up /usr/bin/archfs:
http://pastebin.com/xiqgyYyL
Now run with:
# archfs lzo
(or whichever crompression you choose). It also takes care of any mounting directories you have in /mnt. And "writefs" is no longer needed, that's all it does anyway.
Then simply add the "root=(your boot partition)" and "archfs=lzo" (or whichever compression you chose) command line options to your grub.cfg.
Run:
# mkinitcpio -p archfs
That'll create an initramfs: archfs-linux.lzo that you need to move to your boot partition with your kernel and archfs.gz. Then point grub to that as your initrd.
This will boot and the tmpfs hook will do it's work just after init has mounted your boot partition and then init will switch roots and run /sbin/init as it would on any normal install.
Mix and match as needed. You can remove the /init file from the root of your filesystem or leave it there and all but an xz compressed archfs.gz will boot the old way aswell (the kernel can't handle the xz version). It should all be fairly upgrade proof, barring any major changes to mkinitcpio.
Boot for me with lzo compression is at least twice as fast as old method. Partly due to lzo compression which is super fast (especially creating the archfs.lzo). It makes for a bigger file but it's still only 350MB (pretty much half my uncompressed root filesystem).

Arch System Config Util.

Hi guys,
I started today to make a Arch System Configuration Utility, Now its very basic
and i got alot ideas on how to expand the program with more functions. It is
a basic text editor which lets you config the most important Arch config files on the fly.
The program was born because i as a light desktop user got fed up opening the same
old same old files over and over again in my FM, so whit this thingy i can open them on the fly.
There are probebly half a dozen more config files i could place in the app but this is just
the bare beginning.Hers the screeny:
It is very small and uses GTK.
http://www.mediafire.com/?fwh3gzxxiuy
here is the DL link.
I am planning for this program to make it able to start,stop,restart services and display a bunch of system stats really not sure yet
if you have suggestions post To be able to save the files you must run it as root eg, sudo
Enjoy..
Caved

Hey guys,
To reply some words to the people placing comments on this little app.
If i hadn't seen the topic of this treat i would never have posted it, i am sorry
if that offended some people because that was and would be never be my intention
also i am not a real dev , this is stuff written in gambas2 LOL. its for fun.
I just wanted to share something i worked on for personal use that maybe
people could think of as semi usefull.
This little project was just a thing to keep me bussy and get used to the Gambas2
IDE, that being said:
I am still working on this thing and wont post any of it anymore before i think it would
be even worthy of making a PKGBUILD for (which might never happen), and then this:
the source that gambas2 gives can (to my best knowledge) only be compiled with the
gambas2 IDE), Just saw it CAN make a source archive just not sure to what extent this can be
compiled with gcc Thats wy i was posting the stand alone binary files.
Anyway in the version that has not been posted:
* Combo drop down box to have a look at the most used log files on arch linux. (finished)
* Search box + filter to search for keywords in the currently displayed log files and a
a filter SO displaying only the lines in log files i am looking for (being worked on atm)
* Controls and drop down box with to the most common system services one would mostly want
to start, stop or restart) (being worked on atm, controls already done)
* A small CLI window under the text output box , to catch the output of the systems services
start / stop / restart (being worked on, CLI running but working on the piping of the commands to it)
* Resizing of the hole application without buggering up the positions of the buttons on top and
botton (finished)
this is what it looks like atm.

[SOLVED] Copy packages from current Arch install to new Arch install

Hello!
I'm new to Arch, so that's why I'm posting in the newbie corner. I've been looking everywhere for an answer to this: I want to do a fresh install of my system, but my internet connection is sort of messed up right now (unusually slow). I noticed that every package I have installed on my current Arch are saved in /var/cache/pacman/pkg. Could I make a backup of that directory onto another partition on my hard drive, reinstall Arch, and restore the backup to that same directory in the new install? Would pacman "think" it's already downloaded and skip the download step alltogether?
Thanks.

This should create the dbs you need.
Honestly, *I* think, that the manpage is enough and you don't need the wiki (in this case at least).
You know what, do a test, pick a couple packages, copy them somewhere and create a tiny local repo.
Awesome! I managed to make pacman read the package db I created using add-repo.
I added the repo to the pacman.conf. Had to do a little trial & error to figure out I had to put it like this:
[name of db file]
Server = file:///path/to/folder_of_db partition
I was trying to put the file.db.tar.gz complete rute. Of course, pacman let me know with an error that wasn't right.
I tried installing something simple, like wine. First, I did a sudo pacman -Scc to clear the cache. Then I did sudo pacman -S wine. It installed successfully! I'm gonna try with a fresh install this afternoon. I'll let you know of the result.
Thanks everyone!

How to clone my current arch installation to a VM?

Hey,
I would like to clone my current arch installation to a VM to test if awesome runs with my settings. I thought about making an rsync image and importing it into the vm.
Has anyone tried this before or do you have any recommendations?
thx 4 help

Hi!
Take a look at this Blogpost. There is an description how to create a disc image ponting to an real harddrive.
VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename rawimage.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sda
Warning:The downside of that approach: The disc image is actually linked to your harddrive, so any change in your VM will affect your host-system.
But I've found another useful command:
VBoxMange clonehd rawimage.vmdk realimage.vmdk
This will create a copy of your linked image. It seems to me, like the copy of the linked image is a *real* vmdk-image.
Of course this comes without any warranty - I did not test it: Please be very careful using these commands. But it seems to me, like this approach could be a solution for you.
Sincerely,
brb

Can I put OS X Yosemite on my 2010 macbook pro with current operating system 10.6.8?

Can I put OS X Yosemite on my 2010 macbook pro with current operating system OS X10.6.8? I just bought a new printer and it requires minimum 10.7

You cannot get Mavericks because it has been replaced by Yosemite. Your machine will work just fine with Yosemite, but you don't have to upgrade if you prefer not to.
You should always maintain a backup. Hard drives fail, data are lost. A backup is a security blanket for your data.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
     used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
     requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
     drive being backed up.
3. Time Machine requires a backup drive that is at least double the
     capacity of the drive(s) it backs up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined. It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.) You can purchase hard drives separately. This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice. Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu. You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available. You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports. I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.) You can find enclosures at places such as;
1. Cool Drives
2. OWC
3. WiebeTech
4. Firewire Direct
5. California Drives
6. NewEgg
All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover. Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

Convert the arch system to python3.

Hey,
I have taken up a proof of concept project/challange in which I have to convert all my python2 code to python3, to make it a python3 based system. I chose arch, which defaults to python3 all right.
I am using xfce4 to make it user freindly.Removing python2 will not satisfy these dependencies:
libieee1284 and libplist.
I do not want python2 on my system, I have to show it to my teachers. Also can I do pacman -Rdds python2? will it break the system?
In short, How can I make my system python based, and not python2?

sankrant wrote:I will try force removing them and see if something happens, .
Yes, you should try it yourself. I doubt many people have done what you are trying to do.
Also, we can't do your homework for you: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … e#Homework
So long as this thread remains about generic Arch Linux usage it can stay.
One more remark, converting from 2 to 3 is not trivial. If it were, it would have been done for everything by now.
Good luck.

[SOLVED] Remote Access to a home Arch system behind the router.

Hello,
I am trying to remotely access my home Arch system from school. I did try doing something and this is what I did:
1. Used DynDns and NO-IP to setup a free domain, I thought NO-IP script was easy to run so I tested this on NO-IP.
2. I then installed Openssh.
3. Then I have setup the Port forwarding on the router to point to my ssh port (change from 22).
4. I tried to ping, the domain name from NO-IP with no response.
What I want to ask is... is there any better way of doing this?
I dont need a desktop access, simple ssh should do for now.
Thank You
Gopi
Last edited by gopichand (2011-11-01 00:50:13)

OK, I have solved this by this process. Will work only if the router supports the DynDNS. I am assuming that you have created a DynDNS account, its free for 2 domains. I also had to make my computer use STATIC IP from my router, just specify any IP address outside the DHCP range.
1. On the router, add the details about the DynDNS account. On my Belkin Router, I had to go to Firewall -> DDNS -> DynDNS and give the details and also enable it.
2. By doing the above step, we don't have to install the client for DynDNS.
3. On the router again, setup the port forwarding, again (on my Belkin Router) go to Firewall -> Virtual Servers -> Add the IP and the port numbers, I had to use the same number for both the incoming and the private port, though for other routers the number can differ?
4. On the computer, I installed the openssh and then changed the login port to the one specified in the router for forwarding.
5. Make the router and ssh logins as safe as possible. I understand that opening the router is not safe so I have to warn you.
I can now login using my DynDNS domain name from anywhere woohoo!

How to cooperate the current mail system with Sun Java Commnication Suite 5

Dear all and Shane,
Excuse me for bothering you again.
Due to time limited, I would like to know how to cooperate the current mail system with Sun Java Commnication Suite 5. I mean I would like to use current mail system (mailscanner + postfix + courier-IMAP + clamav + spamassassin + webmail) and use the outlook connector to connect to Sun Java COMMS 5 to share the calendar, contacts only.
Right now I have done the testing by using outlook, mac mail, thunderbird to share calendar,contacts via Sun Java COMMS 5 in Centos Linux 5.
My plan is as following
1. Sun Java Communication suites 5 server ( I called it comms5 ) will be in DMZ zone and will open the necessary ports in firewall.
2. I will create more than six sub domain name in Sun Delegate server and the necessary accounts within these domain names.
3. All messages will be transmitted via Postfix and clients will retrieve from Courier-IMAP
4. All Clients included other branch offices will use different mail clients to share their calendars, contacts via COMMS5 ( But how will COMMS handle the messages such like invitation ? )
Any suggestions will appreciate.
PS: Is it possible to classify the contacts in outlook address book ?
For example, when user click the receiver, it will show like as following
GLOBAL ADDRESS BOOK
--Director
--and so on
----CN.BRANCH OFFICE
-----------CN01 EMAIL ADDRESS
-----------CN02 EMAIL ADDRESS
-----------CN03 EMAIL ADDRESS
and so on
----JP.BRANCH OFFICE
-----------JP01 EMAIL ADDRESS
-----------JP02 EMAIL ADDRESS
-----------JP03 EMAIL ADDRESS
and so on
----TW.BRANCH OFFICE
and Due to the user account is located in CN.BRANCH OFFICE, it will extend the CN.BRANCH OFFICE contacts level.
Excuse me for bad English, hope you can understand it.
Best Regards,
Bruce

Due to time limited, I would like to know how to cooperate the current mail system with Sun Java Commnication Suite 5.
I mean I would like to use current mail system (mailscanner + postfix + courier-IMAP + clamav + spamassassin + webmail) and use the outlook connector to connect to Sun Java COMMS 5 to share the calendar, contacts only.Getting your current mail system to 'co-operate' in this way will require more time then simply migrating the accounts of users on the current mail system to the comm-suite-5 installation and making use of UWC for Webmail access and ClamAV/SpamAssassin integration within the messaging MTA.
Also the use of Outlook Connector with a non-Sun IMAP backend isn't supported, nor is the use of a non-Sun IMAP backend possible with UWC.
Right now I have done the testing by using outlook, mac mail, thunderbird to share calendar,contacts via Sun Java COMMS 5 in Centos Linux 5. Once again I should remind you that CentOS is not a supported platform for comm-suite-5

I am currently running System Version:Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549) on a Macbookpro2,2. Is there any way I can upgrade to Yosemite?

No. Your computer can’t be upgraded past Lion 10.7.5.
