My plan for 26 of June was: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
-Enable the networking in the controller. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
If I manage to enable networking, then: |
| 9 |
-Test the version check script |
| 10 |
-Write the fetch a new image module from the current scripts |
| 11 |
-Write the fetch config.d module from the current scripts |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
By current scripts I mean the scripts that I had written in the past, but not as dracut modules. |
| 14 |
Those scripts as of now are parts in the main init file. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I didn't work with the networking because I switched my objectives after the meeting with my mentor (Rafael Martins) today. |
| 18 |
I choose to switch the objectives, since I am closing the builder part hence I don't want to leave any areas that require active work. |
| 19 |
The new objectives were: |
| 20 |
-Break down to function the main menu, since it's full on case statements and quite unreadable at some parts |
| 21 |
-Create a new function that will work the loop menus |
| 22 |
-Create a new function that will manage the cases |
| 23 |
-Finish the distcc/pump mode on the chroot phase and make the cmdline ccache option to be written in the make.conf(chrooted pashe) |
| 24 |
-Include variables to control the verbosity instead of making if statements. |
| 25 |
This way a simply eval ${verbosity_var} will give the requested ouput. Example, for -q verbosity_var=">/dev/null 2>&1" |
| 26 |
and for emerge emerge_var="-q". However for -v the verbosity_var will be null and at the same time a set -x will be enabled. |
| 27 |
The emerge var will obviously be -v. |

My plan for 27 of June was: |
| 33 |
-Enable the networking in the controller. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
If I manage to enable networking, then: |
| 36 |
-Test the version check script |
| 37 |
-Write the fetch a new image module from the current scripts |
| 38 |
-Write the fetch config.d module from the current scripts |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
By current scripts I mean the scripts that I had written in the past, but not as dracut modules. |
| 41 |
Those scripts as of now are parts in the main init file. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
I did not manage to bring network on the initramfs. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
====================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================== |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
My plan for 28 of June was: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
-Include in the initramfs extra network tools, and see if I can bring the networking manually from a rescue shell. |
| 51 |
-Fix the issues.info builder's log tools. |
| 52 |
-Create a function to manage the issues instead of writing long manual entries |
| 53 |
-Read from the above issues from the loop-reaction function instead of using the last failed command |
| 54 |
If I manage to enable networking, then: |
| 55 |
-Test the version check script |
| 56 |
-Write the fetch a new image module from the current scripts |
| 57 |
-Write the fetch config.d module from the current scripts |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
I could not establish network connection. I get a double IP warning all the time, however I have written the fetch new script, fetch config.d script. |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
====================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================== |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
My plan for 29 of June was: |
| 64 |
-Make a more general update script. This script has already been written in previous objectives, however it looks not general enough. |
| 65 |
-Run the offline controller scripts, since I have trouble with the networking at the moment |
| 66 |
-Export devices, size, fs, label, set path and set config.d directory for the cmdline hook |
| 67 |
-Rw mount part, prepare mount points and chroot script for the pre-mount hook |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
The objectives were successful. Additionally the new main menu functions and their loops has been updated further. The code is reduced a lot and "press any key to continue" entries have been removed. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
====================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================== |

|
| 74 |
My plan for 30 of June was: |
| 75 |
-Rewrite the dracut network module to work for Gentoo. ( I changed it in the past, however it was not good ) |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
I am putting only one objective, since this was not in my plans, hence there is no implementation made. However I must do this, since the dracut network module does not work. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
It did rewrite the dracut network module, however the initramfs would give kernel panic. I guess I am initiating something or missing something. I'll check this on the weekend and see how it goes. |
| 81 |

My plan for 03 of July was: |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
- Finish the network module, if it's not been finished by the weekend |
| 87 |
- Implement it in the rest of the controllers process. |
| 88 |
- Network check |
| 89 |
- Fetching new config.d directory |
| 90 |
- Fetch version |
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
For 03 of July I included during the weekend, one more extra feature. That is a new option for editing the configuration files from the command line. |
| 93 |
The network module, still gives me some hard time, but I think it will be done in the next day. |
| 94 |
