you are aware of the big Education project which already provides lots of stuff around education? [1][2][3]

Our project 'desktop4education' provides an easy way to install a school network. Since 2003, we develop DVD's with an automatic installation of the server and the respective clients, all based on openSUSE. Until now we always used a 'normal' openSUSE dvd as source and crafted our system around it with our own RPM packages and our own autoyast rules. The project is also supported and promoted by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Arts and Culture.

My first try:

osc co openSUSE:11.3 _product:openSUSE-dvd5-dvd-i586 ... osc build

-> Then I got the following error message:

[I] ProductData:getVar(REPO_ONLY) is not set Sep-08 08:25:28<3> : Can't find valid boot/<arch>/ layout failed [W] Creating boot methods failed, medium maybe not be bootable

we would need to know if you run your own obs or which project it is on our obs to help.

At Linuxtage Berlin we saw a presentation titled 'Building your first distribution' by Christopher Hofmann. Now we just want to use the openSUSE Build Service to build our own openSUSE derivative, but we don't know where to start. We want to build everything on our local machines, but first we need some .spec or .kiwi files from the original openSUSE release...

Hello list!

I'm working on my project (desktop4education, http://d4e.at) and I want to build it with the openSUSE Build Service.

My first try:

osc co openSUSE:11.3 _product:openSUSE-dvd5-dvd-i586 ... osc build

-> Then I got the following error message:

[I] ProductData:getVar(REPO_ONLY) is not set Sep-08 08:25:28 <3> : Can't find valid boot/<arch>/ layout failed [W] Creating boot methods failed, medium maybe not be bootable

I know of others that had success with exactly this, so as a first step I would make sure you have the latest osc and build packages. I'm starting your test case, but this will take a while before I can report success/failure.

OK, same problem here. And I think the root cause is this: [W] Metapackage <installation-images> not available for required i586 architecture! [W] Metapackage <installation-images> not available for required noarch architecture! And it's not a tool problem, but a server one: osc buildinfo images i586 *kiwi | grep installation -> nothing Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

I was standing on my head, this is the same problem as described here:

http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-buildservice/2010-06/msg00153.html

It's indeed impossible to build 11.3 media ;(

As a workaround, you can copy this package, enable the build in your package (it will not build on server, because kiwi is only allowed on some projects) and do a local build afterwards. But we will also change the mechanism to allow also local builds for server side disabled builds. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
