| 11:59 | <vma> hello, i asked about installing LSTP server on ALT Linux a couple of days ago
| |
| 11:59 | i did as alkisg said, it seemed to install correctly
| |
| 11:59 | i put ubuntu client image into /srv/ltsp/images/, the kernel and initrd into /srv/tftp/ltsp/x86_64/
| |
| 11:59 | then i ran "ltsp ipxe", "ltsp nfs" and "ltsp initrd", the only error i got was ltsp couldn't restart nfs-kernel-server because in ALT it's called nfs-server but i just restarted it manually
| |
| 11:59 | but when i try to boot i get this error (sry i don't know if you can upload images here): https://imgur.com/a/dLzHGKd
| |
| 12:00 | <alkisg> What is the output of: file /srv/ltsp/images/*
| |
| 12:01 | You're supposed to put a chroot in /srv/ltsp/x86_64/, or a VM in /srv/ltsp/x86_64.img, and then run `ltsp image`
| |
| 12:02 | <vma> oh i thought i just need to copy the chroot image
| |
| 12:02 | thx i'll try to run ltsp image
| |
| 12:19 | sry i forgot to mention i made a client image from server (`ltsp image /`) so i don't have a chroot
| |
| 12:23 | <alkisg> vma: ah no problem then OK you put it in the correct place
| |
| 12:23 | What's the output of that file command that I said above?
| |
| 12:25 | <vma> "/srv/ltsp/images/x86_64.img: Squashfs filesystem, little endian, version 4.0, 335688470528 bytes, 115459 inodes, blocksize: 78 bytes, created: Sun Mar 27 10:32:32 2011"
| |
| 12:25 | <alkisg> vma: did you install the ltsp package in the ubuntu image?
| |
| 12:26 | <vma> i installed in on the server before running ltsp image /
| |
| 12:26 | <alkisg> (although it should work without it, maybe something in alt linux interferes so it's best to have it installed)
| |
| 12:27 | Hmm, then why is ltsp missing...
| |
| 12:27 | Which ubuntu version is that?
| |
| 12:27 | <vma> 20.04
| |
| 12:27 | <alkisg> vma, is that client a virtual machine?
| |
| 12:27 | <vma> yes
| |
| 12:28 | <alkisg> Would you mind sharing your server screen with me? It'll speed up things
| |
| 12:28 | install x11vnc, then: x11vnc -connect alkisg.ltsp.org
| |
| 12:28 | (the alt linux screen)
| |
| 12:30 | (rebooting, back in 1 minute)
| |
| 12:33 | (back)
| |
| 12:34 | <vma> sry i don't think i can make it work, the server doesn't have desktop environment
| |
| 12:35 | <alkisg> How are you watching the VM?
| |
| 12:35 | <vma> proxmox console
| |
| 12:36 | <alkisg> If you add this in ltsp.conf:
| |
| 12:36 | under [common]
| |
| 12:36 | KERNEL_PARAMETERS="break=mount"
| |
| 12:36 | Then you run `ltsp ipxe` to update ltsp.ipxe
| |
| 12:36 | Then you reboot the VM, you'll get a shell
| |
| 12:36 | At that shell, see if ltsp is there
| |
| 12:36 | If it's not, then it's missing both from your initrd AND from your ltsp.img
| |
| 12:37 | (while it should be there in both of them)
| |
| 12:38 | The "correct way" to share your screen with me would be to install x11vnc in the computer where you run the browser from where you access proxmox via browser and the server via ssh
| |
| 12:38 | It's OK to say "I don't want to do that", then there's no need to propose screen sharing solutions at all :)
| |
| 12:38 | I'll be online for around 10 minutes more
| |
| 12:39 | <vma> the machine with the browser is running Windows
| |
| 12:39 | <alkisg> Then realvnc portable
| |
| 12:39 | (or anydesk)
| |
| 12:40 | <vma> will it work if i'm behind NAT?
| |
| 12:40 | <alkisg> Yes, both of them work behind nat
| |
| 12:40 | <vma> i'll try to set it up
| |
| 12:40 | <alkisg> Run anydesk it's easier on windows; then you just PM me your number
| |
| 12:42 | https://download.anydesk.com/AnyDesk.exe

| 13:50 | <alkisg> vma: I'm back if you want to continue now
| |
| 13:51 | <vma> sure
| |
| 13:53 | <alkisg> vma: let's access the alt linux server
| |
| 13:53 | with ssh or proxmox whatever
| |
| 13:55 | Wait I'm comparing with mine
| |
| 13:55 | To see why you don't have /usr/sbin/ltsp in the initramfs
| |
| 14:08 | <vma> wow i don't know how to thank you
| |
| 14:08 | <alkisg> vma: yeah no chance to find that over IRC :)
| |
| 14:08 | <vma> can you pls explain
| |
| 14:08 | <alkisg> Hardcoding #!/bin/dash made ltsp not run inside the initramfs where no dash exists
| |
| 14:08 | So I reverted it back to #!/bin/sh,
| |
| 14:08 | <vma> aah
| |
| 14:09 | <alkisg> and then I created a small launcher in alt linux, in /usr/sbin/ltsp, which launches ltsp via dash
| |
| 14:09 | (initramfs has "ash", not "dash", not "bash")
| |
| 14:09 | <vma> thx a lot
| |
| 14:09 | <alkisg> You're welcome
