====== Week - 5 ====== Week 5 is not going well for me :-( \\ Nothing on project front but other fronts are taking lot of time. ===== Plan for this week ===== - I plan for following things for this week. - to get Ubuntu working in BKO - Add custom script support to rom-o-matic.net code - Design simple interface for BKO which will support static IP embedding in gpxe. ===== 23 - 24 June ===== - Fooling around with Ubuntu to add BKO support. There are two problems. - It is little tricky than what I had expected. - I am not able to give my 100% yet to this problem. ===== 25-26 June ===== - Ubuntu booting tracking [[UbuntuBKO]] - Ubuntu booting with BKO is done, but there is some problem of squashfs - It seems there is some timeout happening because of ubuntu is not booting up. - The problem is documented at [[UbuntuBKO|Ubuntu+BKO booting issues]] - I am not able to debug it effectively as the problem is not in initrd but when it is booting using actual root filesystem which is mounted over HTTP. - I am stuck here and dont know how to debug it. - I am not sure if this is because of the ISO image size of ubuntu because knoppix is working fine which is having same image size. ===== 27 June ===== - Added embedded script support to rom-o-matic.net. [[http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/pravin/rom-o-matic-BKO.git;a=commit;h=77f4559d046ebe6eb452e882220ae15ea350587c|commit here]] - The plan is to use this embedded scripting support to add BKO support and static ip configuration by uses support on top of it. - I documentations about the method used for this is documented [[RomOMaticBKO]]
