in 5 easy steps

1

get cloud-hypervisor or firecracker

2

compile a kernel (use the provided x_kernel_config file), you'll need the stripped ELF file in arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux.bin or the compressed bzImage for cloud-hypervisor.

qemu to linux mapping of smbios / dmi information

Mappings for DMI/SMBIOS to Linux and dmidecode

Information can be put into dmi tables via some qemu-system hosts (x86_64 and aarch64). That information is exposed in Linux under /sys/class/dmi/id and can be read with dmidecode. The names are very annoyingly inconsistent. The point of this doc is to map them.

See qemu-system-x86_64 --help for the fields that qemu will accept. qemu smbios flags vary with qemu version.

Mappings

Example qemu cmdline:

qemu-system-x86_64 -smbios type=,field=value[,...]

Create Root Key

Attention: this is the key used to sign the certificate requests, anyone holding this can sign certificates on your behalf. So keep it in a safe place!

rbackup - time-stamped, hard-linked backups powered by rsync

rbackup

rbackup is a lightweight, rsync-powered backup utility that creates time-stamped backups.

Features

It can save backups to your local filesystem (probably an attached USB device) or to a remote host.

Backups are saved in time-stamped directories. Backups are cheap on storage, because hard-links are used for files that haven't changed between backups.
