Creating FuguIta Media (on OpenBSD, for example)

Creating LiveDVD

Creating LiveUSB

To make a LiveUSB version of FuguIta, prepare a USB memory with a size of 2 gigabytes or more, and write the downloaded and expanded IMG format file. The following is an example of writing using OpenBSD.

  • Download the image for USB flash drive
    # ftp http://livecd-mirror.ebug.jp/LiveDVD/FuguIta-6.X-20YYMMDDN.img.gz
  • Decompressing that image, and write it into USB storage device.
    # gzip -dc FuguIta-6.X-20YYMMDDN.img.gz | dd of=/dev/rsd?c bs=1m
    The "/dev/rsd0c" part in the above example is the designation of the write destination device. This depends on the connection status of the peripherals of your PC. If you execute this command, all the data recorded in the specified device will be erased, so be sure to check in advance if the write destination is correct.

Even if you use a USB memory of 2 GB or more, the portion exceeding 2 GB will not be used. If you want to create a LiveUSB version FuguIta that matches the size of the USB memory, refer to "Remastering LiveUSB from running FuguIta".

Booting FuguIta

After booting from DVD/USB, some user inputs will be prompted;

disks: *cd0a fd0 fd1 rd0 sd0
Disk to boot FuguIta? [cd0a] ->

'*' means the device which stores FuguIta system

  user memory: 267927552 bytes
mfs available: 10MB to 255MB
[default: 127MB] -> 

Only entering "ENTER", half amount of attached memory is specified by default.

set mfs size to default: 127MB

Choose the way of boot

Select boot mode;
  0: fresh boot (normal)
  1: fresh boot (lower memory, faster boot than mode 0)
  2: fresh boot (everything on mfs)
  3: retrieve user data from USB flash memory
  4: retrieve user data from floppy disk
  5: interactive shell for debugging
->0
0 normal fresh boot mode
Like booting just after fresh install. Some parameters are needed to be entered manually. This is the standard fresh boot method.
1 fresh boot with faster and less memory
Same as above.
But under /usr, all files and directories are read only.
2 everything on mfs mode (i.e. diskless mode)
Same as mode 0.
All files and directories will have copied on mfs. This mode requires about more than 650--700MB RAM.
3 Restoring user data from USB flashdrive
After DVD/USB boot, extract files which were stored in USB flash. (to be more described)
4 Restoring user data from floppy disk
Same as above, but extracting from floppy disk. (to be more described)
5 Interactive shell mode
After DVD/USB boot, single user shell invoked. This is intended for system debug.

At first, you should enter mode 0 (recommended) or mode 1.

Running manual setup.
Copying system files to /mfs ... done
Extracting symlinks from /mfs to /fuguita ... done

Remastering LiveUSB from running FuguIta

By this procedure, the data partition will be automatically allocated.
Also, you can specify its size.

  • First, create FuguIta LiveDVD or LiveUSB from download file, then run it.
  • Login as root, then execute newdrive subcommand on the USB management tool usbfadm.
    # usbfadm

    There are several ways of boot. Choose one.
    "Hybrid" enables boot with either Legacy BIOS or UEFI, but it's very difficult to change fdisk/GPT partition later.
    Select boot method:

      You can add suffix K, M, G or T (otherwise considered 'bytes').
      '*' implies 'all'
      '0' doesn't make this partition.
