Introduction
- Sometimes we need to boot Linux without HDD e.g. if you want to experiment with HDD encryption, enable/disable it without causing damage to your data. For such cases we need a LiveCD which doesn't mount HDD at boot.
Creating Initial System with debootstrap
apt-get install debootstrap mkdir livecd debootstrap --arch powerpc squeeze /root/livecd http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian # Grab a beer and reverse some PS3 stuff in the meantime :) # Enter chroot environment mount -t proc none /root/livecd/proc mount --rbind /dev /root/livecd/dev LANG=C chroot /root/livecd /bin/bash export TERM=xterm-color echo "debian" > /etc/hostname dpkg-reconfigure tzdata # Configure network interfaces cat /etc/network/interfaces --- auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp wpa-ssid ssid wpa-psk psk -EOF- # Configure APT cat /etc/apt/sources.list --- deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze main deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian squeeze main deb http://security.debian.org squeeze/updates main deb-src http://security.debian.org squeeze/updates main -EOF- aptitude update aptitude install locales dpkg-reconfigure locales aptitude install console-data dpkg-reconfigure console-data tasksel install standard aptitude install binutils gcc make git vim openssh-server sudo wireless-tools wpasupplicant libssl-dev libncurses5-dev aptitude install gcc-spu g++-spu newlib-spu spu-tools aptitude install parted kpartx cryptsetup libreadline-dev libaio-dev libdevmapper-dev libudev-dev # Make SSH server start at boot so we could ssh to our LiveCD update-rc.d ssh defaults aptitude clean rm -f /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules # exit chroot environment exit # Unmount dev and proc umount /root/livecd/dev/shm umount /root/livecd/dev/pts umount /root/livecd/dev umount /root/livecd/proc
Creating Root Filesystem
cd /root/livecd mksquashfs * ../root.sfs
Modifying Root Filesystem
cd /root unsquashfs root.sfs cd squashfs-root # Make your changes mksquashfs * ../root-changed.sfs
Linux 3 Kernel
- We need a Linux 3 kernel with overlayfs support so we could create a tmpfs over our read-only base filesystem.
- Furthermore, we want to compile PS3 HDD driver as module because in this case we can easily change HDD region flags.
See my GIT repos:
- http://gitorious.ps3dev.net/ps3linux/kernel-configs
- http://gitorious.ps3dev.net/ps3linux/kernel-patches-34

Initramfs
See my GIT repo: http://gitorious.ps3dev.net/ps3linux/livecd
BusyBox
- We need a couple of user-space applications to mount filesystems, load kernel modules and so on.
- And make sure you compile BusyBox without any library dependencies.
- I compiled my BusyBox executable on PS3 Linux but you could cross-compile it too but then you need a complete PowerPC toolchain with libc.

Creating Image
# Populate initramfs mkdir initramfs cd initramfs mkdir -p bin dev etc lib/modules/3.6.4 mnt proc sbin sys usr/bin usr/sbin cp ~/busybox-1.20.1/busybox bin/ cd bin ln -sf busybox sh cd .. echo 'sda.* 0:6 0660' >> etc/mdev.conf echo 'sr[0-9] 0:6 0660 @ln -sf $MDEV cdrom' >> etc/mdev.conf cat >etc/modules <<EOF > fat > vfat > isofs > crc-ccitt > crc-itu-t > lzo_compress > udf > squashfs > overlayfs > ps3_gelic > ps3stor_lib > sg > ps3rom > usb-common > usbcore > ehci-hcd > ohci-hcd > usb-storage > EOF for mod in fat vfat isofs crc-ccitt crc-itu-t lzo_compress udf squashfs overlayfs \ ps3_gelic ps3stor_lib sg ps3rom usb-common usbcore ehci-hcd ohci-hcd usb-storage; do path=`find /home/glevand/linux-3.6.4-build/lib/modules/3.6.4 -name $mod.ko` cp $path lib/modules/3.6.4/ done # Create initramfs find . | cpio -H newc -o > ../initramfs.cpio cd .. cat initramfs.cpio | gzip > initramfs.cpio.gz # Make changes to initramfs gunzip initramfs.cpio.gz mkdir initramfs cd initramfs cpio -i -d -H newc --no-absolute-filenames < ../initramfs.cpio
Images
- vmlinux-3.6.4.xz: http://www.multiupload.nl/D0PYT6HGC0 (MD5 4b5fdb2995fde82e0f6817a7a86fca2c)
- root.sfs: http://www.multiupload.nl/MWDSBR4OJZ (MD5 3ee12e2d351e0bbe1cd7818be23d8973)
- Tools available on the root filesystem: gcc, spu-gcc, spuisofs, spuldrfs, ps3vuart-tools, ps3sed and all my other PS3 Linux drivers. Everything you need to compile and test various PS3 stuff.
- In case someone still hasn't figured it out yet, password for root is root and password for glevand is glevand :)
- I enabled DHCP on Ethernet.
- You could use WLAN too but for that you have to modify the root filesystem and configure your SSID and PSK in /etc/network/interfaces.
USB
- Your USB drive should be formatted with FAT32 filesystem.
- initramfs-usb.cpio.gz: http://www.multiupload.nl/Y084SCQBL3 (MD5 f94b6aec2e5fbbb26f7d466165071469)
- Create debianlive directory on your USB drive.
- Put vmlinux-3.6.4 (extract xz archive), initramfs.cpio.gz and root.sfs into this directory.
$ ls -l /mnt/usb/debianlive/ total 257696 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6746154 Aug 18 17:44 initramfs.cpio.gz -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 249835520 Aug 18 17:15 root.sfs -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7288832 Aug 18 17:31 vmlinux-3.6.4 $ ls -l /mnt/usb/ -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 188 Aug 18 17:30 kboot.conf
- And create kboot.conf in the root directory of your USB drive with this content:
debianlive=/debianlive/vmlinux-3.6.4 initrd=/debianlive/initramfs.cpio.gz
CDROM
(files seem missing)
- initramfs-cdrom.cpio.gz: http://www.multiupload.nl/SA9YK1HFK0 (MD5 f71f8667dc52540136f90a95d7111efc)
- debianlive.iso: http://www.multiupload.nl/TW41UIVAGV (MD5 eeba4fa3428c5d687bada3fd975ea9dd)
