The easiest, and a pretty solid way, if a shared network filesystem does not exist, is to use sftp via FUSE. Even on Plan9, mounting a remote UNIX machine’s filesystem can be done through sshfs(4). On Plan9, when rcpu-ing to remote systems, the script exports the whole client tree, which is then mounted on /mnt/term. https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2022-02-06_for_iot_1/ Sun, 06 Feb 2022 00:00:00 +0000 https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2022-02-06_for_iot_1/ Introduction So… My previous attempt to use pmOS was not so successful… … probably due to lack of vendor libraries which would require the native Android libc, lack of set properties, and daemons I’d have to compile in order to use, let’s say, the GSM network. So I decided to give Android a try, as a general-purpose IoT operating system ^^. Last time I saw it in the wild, for the same usage, was for ODroid. https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2021-10-09_playing_with_containers/ Sat, 09 Oct 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2021-10-09_playing_with_containers/ Synopsis I started working, in my free time, on my own solution to containers and VM management. The motivation was, primarily to learn, but decided it can also serve as a tool for others. I’ve had issues with Firejail (non-programmable configuration), Guix (lack of desired features) and QubesOS cannot run on all hardware. I think the best would be to provide a solution which, does not only come with pre-configured settings, but one should be able to program their desired behaviour. https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2021-09-26_postmarketos_mingling/ Sun, 26 Sep 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://tilde.club/~kitzman/posts/2021-09-26_postmarketos_mingling/ I have this old HTC lying around and I’m currently playing around with it. Setting it up Obviously the first step is installing a bootloader after unlocking. The second step is building and installing pmOS itself, and the ‘pmbootstrap’ tool does a great job at automating the process. The partition table is slightly different than Android systems. pmOS creates a single partition, which in itself contains a partition table. This will have the same format as any Linux partition table.
