7:30 – 3:30VISIBILITY

• OK, where was I? Let’s see – the server is still up and the compiler is still working. The choice is either to a) see how it runs on the actual Internet or b) start working on virtualization.
• Looking at virtualization first.
  • Ubuntu has a script-driven system called vm-builder, but it’s at version 0.12. Here is some documentation.
  • IBM paper describing the process. It’s for Red Hat, but a good start
  • Hmmm. You need hardware support for VMs. If you run “grep -E ‘vmx|svm’ /proc/cpuinfo” and get a non-null result, you’ve got it. My server does not. fgmedev does, but it’s a vm already, so what does that mean?
• Gave Jeff all the information I think he needs to get the paperwerk approved for his server. I gave him a followup call to verify that the information was what he needed and he seemed to think so. That being said, he was going to give the info to someone else to enter, so thay may have questions later as they get into the details
• Started on my SF86 update
