hi,

trying to understand how alphaos is constructed; so first step, cloning the repository

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/alphaos/build
Clonage dans 'build'...
Username for 'https://github.com':


lol :). Private repo? Possibility to have a pass?

thank

As far as I know this is what happened:

The creator of alphaOS (simargl) had the http://alphaos.tuxfamily.org website, this forum, and a repository on github.
After a few years of doing an excellent job simargl stopped the project, and this is when scooby (the smartest of us all) took over the project.

Scooby got access to the alphaOS website, this forum, but somehow the transition of the github repository didn't happen.
So simargl released the AlphaOS repository and everyone was free to pick the same name.

Apparently somebody did, and https://github.com/AlphaOS got restarted by user https://github.com/g97iulio1609.
AFAIK that user is not affiliated with simargl's/scooby's AlphaOS and uses some Antergos files and not files from this project.

Bottom line is that https://github.com/AlphaOS does not contain the files of this (http://alphaos.tuxfamily.org) project.

Scooby,
Please feel free to correct my assessment if necessary.

@efgee, ok thanks

@scooby, are you using a special compilation kernel on alphaos to support aufs like linux-aufs_friendly?

your init call a function called init_aufs in the file livekitlib. this function just do this

Code: Select all

modprobe aufs 2>/dev/null
