- Building 4.4 x86 on os-builder.com
Some basic info that goes across the board.
Ultimate Edition 4.4 in general is:
Debootstapped, built from the ground up. Based on Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn. Generated on a server, not by a person as in the past, using Tmosb 1.9.3. I provided no custom switches other then -yes so it did not prompt me, I do have other things to do.
The Ultimate Edition 4.4 line, being produced:
- ultimate-edition-4.4-armel.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-powerpc.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x64.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x86-gamers.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x86-lite.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-armhf.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x64-gamers.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x64-lite.iso
- ultimate-edition-4.4-x86.iso
Will they all be released to the general public? This has yet to be determined.
Moving on
Our server http://os-builder.com is building the entire line of Ultimate Edition 4.4. I figured why not create a thread & get the ball rolling.
For example Ultimate Edition 4.4 Gamers (done):

Please note: The above url, may not work if the release has not been made public.
As we can see on the screenie above, it is now a Quad core & 8GB (not 4 as the above) of ram building. The server has the ability to be upgraded to a 20 core & 64GB of ram. All servers run off SSD technology. Expensive, but worth it. I am reserving the 20 core for when I get it building custom operating systems for you, by a few clicks of your mouse.
A currently un-working example can be viewed here.
I am super happy we now have all servers running under Ultimate Edition!!! All stats, auto generated as per server. Including this very server. When I get time, I will upgrade this server to Ultimate Edition 4.2.1 Minimal Server LTS. Tmosb built that too
The Future?
With a a doubt when we roll to a 20 core processor server, the Storm will move in to fix your applications as it builds your "PERFECT OPERATING SYSTEM". At that point we become untouchable, and 20 cores will not be enough. No problem, open another server. I love cloud computing.
Feel the Laziness:
Wrote a script to automate the building of the entire Ultimate Edition 4.4 line.
- Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
declare -a OS=();
OS=$(tmosb --build --suppress)
FOLDER=$((ls -d */) 2>/dev/null)
if [[ $FOLDER ]]; then
echo "Please scrap $FOLDER, so we can continue."
exit 0;
fi
if [[ $1 ]]; then
for EACH in ${OS[@]}
do
GREPIT=$(echo $EACH | grep "$1")
if [[ $GREPIT ]]; then
tmosb --build $EACH -yes
mv *.iso /var/www/os-builder.com/
ERROR=$(rm -R $EACH/)
if [[ $ERROR ]]; then
echo "Reboot your server and remove the folder $EACH"
exit 0;
fi
fi
done
fi
The above will expand as I go along, perfection is my goal all in one shot. Build all those operating systems while I sleep. Will do the same for 4.5 etc. SCRIPTNAME 4.5 I love pipes. Linux is the only one that has them:
- Code: Select all
OS=$(tmosb --build --suppress)
Loads the operating systems into an array
- Code: Select all
for EACH in ${OS[@]}
cycles the array looking for 4.4 and generates a list of operating systems to build, one clean sweep. Big things are coming, strike that huge. Kick back and enjoy the ride. We have not discussed customization yet. It has been there for a long minute, I have not woken it up YET!!!
TheeMahn,
