kaw (2020-07-07 (Tue) 19:03:24)

Are you the person who tried to run #FuguIta on Raspberry Pi 4?
I don't have RPi4, so I want to know the result.

Garbled Firefox in FuguIta 6.7†

kaw (2020-06-28 (Sun) 02:48:45)

In #FuguIta 6.7, some characters in Firefox file dialog are garbled.

(click to enlarge)

This is because the file tree structure is partially different between OpenBSD and FuguIta, which now violates the unveil(2) system call.

To solve this, change the /etc/firefox/unveil.main file as follows.

diff -ru firefox.orig/unveil.main firefox/unveil.main

FuguIta now supports encrypted partition†

kaw(2020-06-14 (Sun) 16:05:00)
FuguIta-6.7-*-202006142 supports to create an encrypted partition for store and resotration of user's data.

To create an encrypted partition, use usbfadm as follows:

#FuguIta-6.7-arm64-202006031†

kaw (2020-06-04 (Thu) 12:31:44)

FuguIta-6.7-*-202006031 which applied patch-007 of OpenBSD 6.7 was just released today.

Of these releases, the arm64 version could not be tested on the actual machine due to various reasons, so an operation test was performed using the QEMU CPU emulator (qemu-system-aarch64).

We plan to test the operation on a real machine within a few days, but if you have experience testing this release on a real RPi3, we would be grateful if you let us know the test results.

Thank you

Pre-release of FuguIta-6.7†

kaw (2020-05-22 (Fri) 14:46:17)

The test version of FuguIta-6.7 (i386/amd64) had been uploaded to the test directory of mirrors.
The boot time of ISO version may take quite long time because lack of fast-boot-cache.

I would appreciate it if you could give me your case report.

thanks

DM and browser†

I really like #FuguIta, but I was wondering if there was a chance of making a separate, downloadable iso with icewm (or any desktop manager) and firefox? Just for someone that wants to browse the internet and nothing more.

new tool - dtjsetup†

kaw (2020-01-17 (Fri) 16:20:33)

#FuguIta's new release "FuguIta-6.6-*-202001171" introduces a new tool "dtjsetup" in addition to the patch-017 of OpenBSD.

As its name implies, dtjsetup (DeskTop (plus Japanese optionally) environment setup tool) installs the desktop environment software and replaces the X startup file .xsession with the appropriate contents.

dtjsetup can be started by ordinary user. If root privileges are required, such as when installing new software, dtjsetup checks the user's environment, starts doas or su internally, and executes commands with root privileges.

If you do not need to install new software, such as when using cwm or fvwm as a window manager, dtjsetup only replaces the .xsession file, so you do not need root privileges.

If an .xsession file already exists, dtjsetup renames the file to a time-stamped name and backs it up.

The software that dtjsetup can currently set up is as follows:

Window Manager: cwm, fvwm, twm, icewm, fluxbox, jwm
Desktop Environment: rox-filer, xfce, mate, lumina, lxqt
Japanese Input Method: scim-anthy, uim-gtk, fcitx-anthy, ibus-skk

If you choose to set up a Japanese environment, in addition to the Japanese Input Method above, install some sets of Japanese fonts, ja-kterm (Kanji Terminal), and set the time zone to JST if the user instructs.

I wrote a installer to introduce Desktop Environment on #FuguIta.
Desktop: ROX-Filer, xfce, mate, lumina, (not tested yet: GNOME, KDE)
WM: cwm, twm, fvwm, icewm and jwm
and can setup softwares for Japanese (font, kterm, input method).
Save this fileinstalldesktop.sh.txt as installdesktop.sh and run it.

usbfadm update†

kaw (2019-11-14 (Thu) 00:52:42)

As described in FuguIta/6.6, when FuguIta-6.6-arm64 runs without a swap partition, its behaviour becomes unstable.

In connection with this, #FuguIta's remastering tool "usbfadm" is being planned to be able to create a swap partition.

updating FuguIta†

aleksa (2019-03-25 (Mon) 19:41:13)

Hello, kaw!
How can i update FuguIta?

For example, if i have the patched-014 6.4-i386-version with a bunch of installed apps running on a usb drive in mode 3,

is it possible to just substitute that big FFSIMG on sd0a for the one taken from the patched-015 FuguIta-6.4-i386-201903231.img?

Yes, of course, you can do it.

(You know, LiveCD cannot be re-written, so in that case, prepare another CD media to burn newly released FuguIta)

There are some ways to update LiveUSB version of FuguIta.

I'll introduce two methods, for example.

  • method 1: replace the kernels and the filesystem image

    This is described in FuguIta Guide (Google Translate is your friend).
    • 1: Boot NEW USB with mode 0. (Boot time configurations may be the minimal)
    • 2: mount OLD USB (assume it's sd1)
      # mount /dev/sd1a /mnt
    • 3: copy NEW kernels and a filesystem image to old USB 
      # cp /sysmedia/bsd-fi /mnt
# cp /sysmedia/bsd-fi /mnt
# cp /sysmedia/fuguita-6.4-i386.ffsimg /mnt
    • 4: umount sd1, then halt
    • 5: reboot NEW USB and confirm that's updated. 
      # uname -a                  # OS version
# sysctl kern.version       # kernel version
# cat /usr/fuguita/version  # release of fuguita
  • method 2: migrate installed apps, config files and your data to NEW USB
    • 1: Boot OLD USB with mode 3 you've been used until now
    • 2: Invoke usbfadm, then attach NEW USB and change sync target to it 
      # usbfadm

Welcome to usbfadm. 
USB flash drive administration tool for FuguIta

  Version/Arch: 6.4/arm64  (FuguIta-6.4-arm64-201903231)
     Boot mode: usbflash
Data stored in: /dev/sd0d
 Data Saved as: aleksa_apps

Type ? for help.

sd0d : aleksa_apps ->target 

Searching USB flash drives
Please make sure the device inserted.
Then press ENTER -> 
sd0a +sd0d sd0i sd1a +sd1d sd1i

target device->sd1d
    • 3: Do 'sync' command to NEW USB 
      sd1d : aleksa_apps ->sync

Sync current tmpfs as ``aleksa_apps'' , OK? [y/N] -> y

sending incremental file list
....snip....
sent 14,595,555 bytes  received 2,592 bytes  572,476.35 bytes/sec
total size is 29,789,283  speedup is 2.04

sd1d : aleksa_apps ->bye

Bye bye...
# halt
    • 4: Reboot with NEW USB, and check it's OK.

These procedures are valid when OLD and NEW USB are both based on same OpenBSD version. If it isn't (e.g. 6.4 to 6.5), you need to pkg_add manually on a new system, and need to migrate app's config files and your data files to NEW USB by hand.

Finally, I think method 2 is little bit safer. -- kaw 2019-03-26 (Tue) 01:10:40

  • Updating #FuguIta by method 1 worked fine. Thank you, Kaw, for your work! -- aleksa 2019-03-26 (Tue) 22:57:30
  • Aleksa, it's nice to hear that. FYI, a LiveCD version of #FuguIta is also OK for source of copying kernels and fs imgs. -- kaw 2019-03-27 (Wed) 02:48:36

New feature: mount additional partitions†

kaw (2019-03-13 (Wed) 17:42:48)

Unlike most Unix-like OSes, #FuguIta does not mount them at boot time, even if the user writes partition entries in /etc/fstab.

That's because FuguIta scans the all partitions of attached disks to by the script /boottmp/rc. According to that result, it determines apropriate partitions (and vnode devices) to be mounted.

FuguIta generates /etc/fstab after the partition is mounted. Therefore, even if the user adds partition entries to fstab, they will be overwritten at next boot time.

To solve this problem, FuguIta-6.4-201903131 introduced the /usr/fuguita/etc/fstab.tail file.

Describe the partition entries to be mounted in fstab.tail with the same format as /etc/fstab, save with usbfadm.

Those partitions will be mounted at next boot of mode 3.

Note that this is functional only when boot mode is 3.
