Installation
Install the following:
- ansible
- qemu
- genisoimage
- ovmf (find the location of
OVMF\_CODE.fd, it is system dependent)
Before doing anything else, edit the config files in group_vars/ to your
system's needs. For qemu installation specifically, you need to provide the
location of your OVMF_CODE.fd file.
To begin the setup process, in this repo's root, run:
$ ansible-playbook -K qemu/install.yml
To view the vm, you also need a vnc viewer. TigerVNC is a good choice.
Simply run
$ vncviewer :5900
Currently, this is a bug with the installation process that causes the vm to not terminate after completing the base install, causing the ansible task to hang. You can manually terminate ansible once the vm shows:
Once the base installation is complete, we need to configure the system in a postinstall step, start by running the vm with:
$ ansible-playbook qemu/run.yml
And then run the postinstall playbook:
$ ansible-playbook qemu/postinstall.yml
The mirror dev environment is now ready to use. All future vm startups can be done with:
$ ansible-playbook qemu/run.yml
