General :: Creating A Chroot Environment - Specifically With A Different Kernel ?
May 9, 2011I have successfully installed a Ubuntu chroot (Maverick) on a running Linux appliance (an old Thecus N5200PRO box) which has been running various services for me quite happily.
When I attempted to add a webcam (for snapshotting) to this mix, I've come up against a problem. Since the chroot by default uses the kernel of the Thecus appliance, there appears to (understandably) be no support for the Logitech UVC webcam in the appliances' kernel; consequently inside or outside the chroot I can't access the UVC webcam.
I think I can get around this in a simple way if I can run a standard Ubuntu Maverick 32-bit kernel in the chroot.
Does anyone know how to chroot with alternative kernels, or quite simply, how to get a UVC webcam accessible on a Thecus N5200PRO?
Other details:

Mar 18, 2010Script programming question for the experts. I have written a bash script that works fine if I execute from the shell interactively. However, once I schedule it to be executed via cron, it just wouldn't work. I believe this has to do with cron running in a different environment than the one I am in when I putty in.
The bash shell script does refer to environment variables in the .cshrc file. I guess these aren't available to the cron? How can I load them into the script if I want them to be available to the cron locally within the script?

Ubuntu :: Desktop Environment Freezes During Load After Kernel Update?
Jan 27, 2011This morning I noticed that there was an update to the kernel ready in the Update Manager, to version 2.6.35-25. I let Update Manager do its thing and I restarted my computer when it prompted me to.If I select 2.6.35-25-generic in Grub, Ubuntu boots just fine, all the way to the login screen. However, after entering my password, it looks like Gnome is going to load, but it never does. All I see is the default wallpaper and nothing else; the system locks up and does not respond to any input; and the fans start spinning at full-speed. My only option at this point is to do a hard shutdown. I have no problems if I select the kernel I was using previously: 2.6.35-24-generic

Fedora Servers :: 9 - ACl And Chrooted SFTP
Mar 17, 2009i'm on 9, x86_64, and have successfully created chrooted SFTp users following this [URL] tutorial. however, i need to get into the sftp account programmatically to move and delete the deposited files. so i enabled ACL and set setfacl -R -m u:$USER:rwx,d:u:$USER:rwx /home/$SFTPUSER
this works well EXCEPT that now the sftp user cannot log in. the latter, of course, is the problem at hand! it's driving me crazy. as soon as i remove the acl and revert back to the plain old chmod/chown scheme, the sftp user can log in ... but i can't delete files in the sftp account. i tried to set facl to the sftp group ('jailed') but to no avail.
Debian :: Determine If An Service / App Is In Chrooted Jail
May 31, 2010I am trying to find out, if an application is chrooted jail or not. I have tried to do as suggested here, but something is wrong I believe. [URL]
pidof apache2
24714 24404 24366 24365 24364 24363 24362 4923
ls -ld /proc/24714/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 31 19:05 /proc/24714/root -> /
So far so good. Now we try with postfix, ups, nothing to show ? pidof postfix Lets try with the postfix master process instead. pidof master 2623
ls -ld /proc/2623/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 31 19:07 /proc/2623/root -> /
It shows it as not being chrooted jail, which I do not understand, since I KNOW that postfix runs chrooted jail.

Aug 10, 2010I had to copy the lib64 libs since I am working on a Cent OS 5.5 Xen VM. And used username enemy-territory instead of et adjusting the relevant init script lines accordingly. I am able to run "chroot /usr/local/enemy-territory" and get to shell, I am root when I run that, of course.

Feb 15, 2010Trying to install Opensuse 11.2 (64bit) on a new machine isn't working well. After loading the linux kernel, the green screen with the progress bar appears, and the mouse and keyboard turn off (at least, the leds go out and there's no response) The progress bar never moves. Esc key doesn't work either. I've tried safe mode install and other options, but the same result follows.
It's going onto a Tyan S2912 with AMD 2347HE. The hard drive is a Western Digital SATA drive I bought today. There's 4GB of RAM, and the DVD drive is a Toshiba USB unit. I don't know what else to say about it. If it helps, I've been running Pelican HPC (live) without a hard-drive andgot tired of setting the network configuration and installing a ouple of programs with every boot. (Which is why I bought the hard drive today). I want to install Opensuse 11.2, but I've tried Debian (no luck on detecting the hard-drive) and Windows 7 (installed fine, but there are no drivers for the embedded video).
Ubuntu :: Grub 2 Not Loading Newest Kernel
Mar 20, 2010I have been running Ubuntu 9.10 ever since it was released, on my HTPC. However, for some reason when a new kernel comes out and I upgrade to it GRUB 2 doesn't load the newest kernel but just loads the old original kernel that came with it when I originally installed 9.10. I have confirmed that the newer kernels are installed by editing the GRUB 2 command line at startup (just a temporary fix) and all worked well with the newer kernels. How can I make GRUB 2 load the newest kernel by default. On my laptop running 9.10 it has loaded the newest kernel by default ever since I installed it but my HTPC just won't cooperate.

And now I remember that I'm not able to use my mobile broadband either (Nokia N900 in PC Suite mode through USB). It's just not detected anymore. It must suffer from this same problem. I tried to roll back to the previous kernel, but then the restricted driver for my Broadcom WLAN refuses to install

Fedora Installation :: Cannot Boot Into 64bit - Kernel Not Loading Properly
Jun 1, 2010I got a new laptop, this is the one: [URL] and decided that I wanted to go with Fedora instead of Ubuntu with this computer. The laptop runs win 7 64 bit so I'm trying to go with Fedora 64 but it will not boot. I first installed Fedora 12 64 bit from the DVD install and it would go to grub fine but when I boot the fedora os It just stops in the middle of the boot script. When it stops, the last 4 lines are:
kernel_init=0x1fd/0x257
child_rip+0xa/0x20
? kernel_init+0x0/0x257
? child_rip+0x0/x20
I hadn't messed with it for a few weeks and yesterday I saw that 13 was out, so I downloaded and burnt the Fedora 13 64 bit CD. I popped it in, booted the computer and it did the same crap. It didn't stop at the same line but it was around a line with:
? kernel_init
So I guess the kernel isn't loading properly or something. Do ya'll think I would be better off using the 32 bit?
Ubuntu :: Android And Chrooted - Mysqld Can't Create Ip Socket Permission Denied
Sep 1, 2011I have a droid phone, and I have ubuntu 9 running on it. This is done by chrooting since the phone runs a linux kernel. And it works... I have a question though. tightvncserver does work, and its able to listen on 127.0.0.1.. Its how you view your X session. So you chroot to Ubuntu, then start vncserver. Then switch back to android and login to ubuntu via vnc client. but apache, mysql, and postgresql do not work. Well. They dont seem too.. except for mysql. Mysql will start but only if you tell it not to use networking by saying skip-networking in my.cnf
Mysql says: mysqld cant create ip socket permission denied Apache2 says it can find 127.0.0.1 but doesnt actually run same with postgresql... All seem to be compiled with arm architecture. So why does tightvncwork? Why is it so special? How can it listen on the loop back (127.0.0.1) when nothing else can...
I have /proc and /dev bind to the chroot side. I can run ifconfig okay, and I can run /etc/init.d/networking start okay.. But apache2, mysql, etc have problems binding. I have removed apparmor even though technically its not running, but I removed it and its configuration files, just because I thought perhaps mysql looks at apparmor, but I doubted it.
Debian Installation :: No More SATA - Releases Freeze Up Almost Instantly After Loading The Kernel
Apr 13, 2011I'm trying to install Debian 6.0.1a (64bit) onto a machine that had Debian 5.08. It freezes up almost immediately after loading the kernel. The last line, about 2.6 seconds in, is where it found a SATA drive. (There are two SATA drives). This is a Tyan S2912 with Opteron 2347HE. It seems to be kernel release related. I tried the 5.08 disc again, and it works OK.
With other distros, such as Opensuse and Ubuntu, I have the same problem. The newer releases freeze up almost instantly after loading the kernel. Am I stuck with IDE drives or older kernels? I wanted to try something newer as the fonts in the 5.0.8 release were barely legible. It gave me nauseating headaches within a couple of hours of looking at it. My wife couldn't stand to see it when she came by. I've tried every bios setting change I could think of without a solution.
OpenSUSE Install :: Loading Kernel Hangs At 94% On Dell Studio XPS PP35L
Jul 6, 2010I was trying to install openSUSE 11.2 on Dell XPS Studio, model PP35L, but loading kernel hangs at 94%, I tried F5 for Safe Settings, No APIC, No Local ACPI, Check Installation Media, but it still hangs at 94%. Installation works fine on older computer. Is it because openSuse kernel doesn't recognize the i5 Core processor yet? If this is caused by a driver, is there a way to display the kernel messages and what would be the kernel boot options to disable loading of that driver?

General :: Set Up Remote Environment After SSH?
May 16, 2010I would like to set up the shell env that i get after SSH to a remote host.
I am using a color screen in my terminal, having cusomtized LS_COLORS environment variable. Problem is, every time i log in to a remote host using SSH, i have to manually export LS_COLORS. You can say put that in ever .bashrc file in every host, but that is not very helpful because the remote host are lab servers that keep getting new OS very often(testing stuff), and the team and I usually log in there with root user.
Is there a way to do that?
