[gentoo-soc] cross_container_support - progress report #3

[Jing Huang]

Hi,

== Progress of this Week ==

This week, I have prepared a simple script that generates a working
normal lxc gentoo container from a gentoo stage3.

The code is uploaded to:
https://github.com/jinghuang/cross_container_support

The users could use the script like:

# ./lxc.sh create -i guest_ipaddr -g gateway -n guest_name -r rootfs_path
(if rootfs_path is not exist, the script will download a new gentoo
stage3 tarball)

#./lxc.sh start -n guest_name

#./lxc.sh destroy -n guest_name


== Plans for next week ==

1. improve the lxc.sh script according to mentor's advice

2. make the lxc.sh to work with qemu-user

The user could download a gentoo arm stage3 through:

# ./lxc.sh create -i guest_ipaddr -g gateway -n guest_name -r rootfs_path -a arm

Next, I will try to create and start an arm lxc guest on x86 host.



Best Regards!

Jing.

Nice, I'll comment there later =)

We should coordinate with Diego to integrate everything in the ebuilds soon.
