July 15, 2009 at 14:08Suse Studio review (in screenshots)
I decided to transfer my record from the sandbox, apparently few saw it, but it appeared a long time ago, let's start ...
I got an invite to Suse Studio and decided to tell you a little about it ...
What is it? And this is an online collector of linux distributions based on the development of suse (sles, opensuse, etc.) where in just a couple of clicks you can create your own vasya pupkin linux.
Registration and authorization is implemented using OpenID, so when registering, you can specify, for example, an account on Google.
First, we are offered to choose the base os on the basis of which our distribution will be assembled, and they also offer to name it. Here's what it looks like: Next we are greeted where we can change the distribution name, or continue to collect it.
I want to note that ajax is everywhere, even changes in realtime are taking place. Then we are offered to choose software from a huge list (~ 8000), enough for everyone :) (well, if not enough, you can add your rpm or connect any yast repository) If something is wrong, an error message will be displayed on the left (for example what the selected program is missing) Next is the configuration, everything is as usual here. Here we are offered to choose the logo of our distribution and background images (you can upload your own). Choose runlevel and whether eula will be displayed at the first start. We configure server components (at the moment you can configure only MySQL), we decided to inform that we wanted to configure MySQL, but did not add him into the distribution kit.
We choose whether auto-login and auto-start are needed for programs. Here some parameters for assembly are configured. Well, we are given the opportunity to execute one script after the assembly is completed and during the download of our distribution kit. Here we are offered to add additional files to our distribution kit. Finally, the assembly (livecd, disk image , xen and vmware virtual machines), even give you the version and offer to add the installer to the livecd system. The assembly takes about 10 minutes (depending on the load on the service). At the end of the assembly, we are offered a test drive of our distribution, see what is inside or download it . Unfortunately, the test drive is apparently still raw, so it wasn’t possible to use it normally (it stopped responding to pressing the keyboard buttons )
Api are also available for remote launch of the assembly and / or viewing the distribution parameters, but this is no longer for this article.
ps I wanted to show it most clearly, as a result, it seems that the text came out less than screenshots :)
pss Please do not beat much, my first article :)
