oVirt Node Fedora 16 Spin
by Joey Boggs 08 Oct '11

08 Oct '11

It seems there are some issues with the current Spins approval process, but to workaround I've been asked to contact each of your lists to get acks for approval to keep the ball rolling. The spins feature page in question is located at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ovirt_Node_Spin For the test plan we are awaiting an upstream commit to virt-manager to add in a tui version of virt-manager. We plan to showcase that in the spin as well. This means the test plan will be updated from its current state. (updated tentatively today) For the artwork we have a boot splash screen in the unofficial spins that we release ourselves on new builds, in the case of a spin this was an item we are not allowed to change. We'll also be providing screenshots of the new virt-manager-tui and standalone mode installation. If you have any questions please contact me or apevec(a)redhat.com Thanks, Joey

Fedora 15 Spining
by Danishka Navin 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

The Fedora 15 base remixing (using the livecd-creator) running for several hours. I noticed that cache directory has rpm files but nothing on standard output other than "No such package to remove..." I can see the system is downloading from a fedora mirror. Is this normal for F15 based remix? I have seen each downloaded package in F14. Thanks -- Danishka Navin http://danishkanavin.blogspot.com http://twitter.com/danishkanavin http://www.flickr.com/photos/danishkanavin/
