Title: [HELP] Compile some extensions
Post by: brunok on January 17, 2018, 02:16:13 PM

I'm running TC via PXE very well!

However, I used the NFS method to load the extensions, which leaves the boot a bit slower.


I used squashfs to unzip extensions and created a single TCZ.
Did not work.

I have already edited the .list file with TCZ created, but it does not complete the boot, because permission errors appear.

Any specific details for this case?

The single extension is probably not the best approach.

I have a suggestion:

1. Edit the /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst
2. Remove the extensions which take a long time to load
3. Edit the /opt/bootsetup.sh
4. Add a command to load the extensions, ex: tce-load -il bigext1.tcz bigext2.tcz bigext3.tcz

Of course, make sure your onboot.lst and bootsetup.sh are backed up and restored on boot.
