TC11.beta1 "noautologin" ignored ?
« on: January 21, 2020, 04:16:47 PM »
Hello,

i am trying to get Tinycore64 Version 11 beta1 running under XEN4.13. I need to modify two files, written here other wise TC doesnt boot till the loginprompt!

This is my PV domu config for TC11beta1
Code: [Select]
# Kernel paths for install
kernel = "/home/xen/domains/tc11.0beta1_x64/distribution_files/vmlinuz64"
ramdisk = "/home/xen/domains/tc11.0beta1_x64/distribution_files/corepure64-xen.gz"
extra="modules=loop,squashfs console=hvc0 nortc [color=red]noautologin[/color]"

# Path to HDD and iso file
disk = [ 'format=raw, vdev=xvda, access=w, target=/dev/vg/tc11.1beta1-disk', 'format=raw, vdev=xvdb, access=w, target=/dev/vg/tc11.1beta1-swap' ]

# Network configuration
vif = ['mac=00:16:3e:aa:bb:cc, bridge=FOOBAR']

# DomU settings
memory = 512
name = "tc11beta1"
vcpus = 1
maxvcpus = 1

so far it boots but if i am using the bootcode "noautologin" then this happend:

login[401]: root login on 'hvc0'
root@box:~#

and another quest: after root has logged in and i type "exit" and hit enter/return the logout process hangs and i am not able to do anything anymore, thats not correct or ?

Thanks, best regards

noautologin works the same as before, there is a temporary root login. It works in qemu, so not sure what is the issue in xen.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

Hello Curaga,

i tried to boot TC11.0beta1 on xen4.13 with "pygrub" and also "pvgrub2"

Code: [Select]
                             GNU GRUB  version 2.05

Linux version 5.4.3-tinycore64 [color=red](tc@box)[/color] (gcc version 9.2.0 (GCC)) #2020 SMP Tue Dec 17 17:38:30 UTC 2019You can see from the command line the user is "tc" --> (tc@box) <--but if the boot is done then "root" trys to login ...

Are there any debug or verbose option to get more information at boottime so may i can find what causes the problem ?
At least "noautologin" is ignored also "user=tc" ... thats strange.

Regards
Halma

so far i managed the noautologin problem and i can also logout and login without problems/hangs!
I modified the "/etc/inittab" from the corepure64.gz to the following:

Code: [Select]
tc@box:~$ cat /etc/inittab
# /etc/inittab: init configuration for busybox init.
# Boot-time system configuration/initialization script.
#
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
hvc0::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 hvc0

# /sbin/getty respawn shell invocations for selected ttys.
tty1::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1
#tty2::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2
#tty3::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3
#tty4::askfirst:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4
#tty5::askfirst:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
#tty6::askfirst:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

# Stuff to do when restarting the init
# process, or before rebooting.
::restart:/etc/init.d/rc.shutdown
::restart:/sbin/init
::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
::shutdown:/etc/init.d/rc.shutdown

i am not sure, i think thats not the official way todo !?!

Halma
