vm.mk: extend vm/net base image size to 5 Gb qemu-img makes use of sparse files so the image will take up reasonable space when handled appropriately (and compress nicely as well); making images of minimal size is going to result in grave usage problems starting with apt-get update hitting ENOSPC. 2014-03-03 19:10:39 +04:00			`vm/net: vm/bare use/vm-net/dhcp use/vm-ssh use/repo`

initial vm-{net,ssh} features A virtual machine isn't very useful if there are no means to access it; let's bring up the basic networking and provide root SSH access via pre-existing public key. As the remote access with known default credentials is roughly equivalent to just lending one's VMs to anyone with network access to it, the fallback root password is now exterminated; you have to provide one (or a long enough random string if you plan to use keys only, see e.g. apg utility). 2012-06-21 21:39:37 +03:00
actually useful vm/icewm See http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID3/86239.html#1 for a query that has led to this one; in particular, - xdm dropped (won't log in root and there are no users yet); - network is brought up and configured via DHCP by default; - apt-get works out-of-box; - default image size is twice the chroot size. 2012-08-30 22:34:47 +03:00			`# NB: use/x11 employs some installer-feature packages`
vm.mk: vm/net should use/repo IOW one has every right to expect that package manager is set up already in a networked virtual machine. (backport) 2014-03-01 22:28:28 +04:00			`vm/icewm: vm/net use/cleanup/installer +icewm; @:`
