+2013-04-01, so I decided to wrap up a package based on the great work

+repository to get a package I could use. I would very much like

+ <div class="date">27th October 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>The
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/v/vmdebootstrap.html">vmdebootstrap</a>
+program is a a very nice system to create virtual machine images. It
+create a image file, add a partition table, mount it and run
+debootstrap in the mounted directory to create a Debian system on a
+stick. Yesterday, I decided to try to teach it how to make images for
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/RaspberryPi">Raspberry Pi</a>, as part
+of a plan to simplify the build system for
+<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the FreedomBox
+project</a>. The FreedomBox project already uses vmdebootstrap for
+the virtualbox images, but its current build system made multistrap
+based system for Dreamplug images, and it is lacking support for
+Raspberry Pi.</p>
+
+<p>Armed with the knowledge on how to build "foreign" (aka non-native
+architecture) chroots for Raspberry Pi, I dived into the vmdebootstrap
+code and adjusted it to be able to build armel images on my amd64
+Debian laptop. I ended up giving vmdebootstrap five new options,
+allowing me to replicate the image creation process I use to make
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/A_Raspberry_Pi_based_batman_adv_Mesh_network_node.html">Debian
+Jessie based mesh node images for the Raspberry Pi</a>. First, the
+<tt>--foreign /path/to/binfm_handler</tt> option tell vmdebootstrap to
+call debootstrap with --foreign and to copy the handler into the
+generated chroot before running the second stage. This allow
+vmdebootstrap to create armel images on an amd64 host. Next I added
+two new options <tt>--bootsize size</tt> and <tt>--boottype
+fstype</tt> to teach it to create a separate /boot/ partition with the
+given file system type, allowing me to create an image with a vfat
+partition for the /boot/ stuff. I also added a <tt>--variant
+variant</tt> option to allow me to create smaller images without the
+Debian base system packages installed. Finally, I added an option
+<tt>--no-extlinux</tt> to tell vmdebootstrap to not install extlinux
+as a boot loader. It is not needed on the Raspberry Pi and probably
+most other non-x86 architectures. The changes were accepted by the
+upstream author of vmdebootstrap yesterday and today, and is now
+available from
+<a href="http://git.liw.fi/cgi-bin/cgit/cgit.cgi/vmdebootstrap/">the
+upstream project page</a>.</p>
+
+<p>To use it to build a Raspberry Pi image using Debian Jessie, first
+create a small script (the customize script) to add the non-free
+binary blob needed to boot the Raspberry Pi and the APT source
+list:</p>
+
+<p><pre>
+#!/bin/sh
+set -e # Exit on first error
+rootdir="$1"
+cd "$rootdir"
+cat <<EOF > etc/apt/sources.list
+deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
+EOF
+# Install non-free binary blob needed to boot Raspberry Pi. This
+# install a kernel somewhere too.
+wget https://raw.github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update/master/rpi-update \
+ -O $rootdir/usr/bin/rpi-update
+chmod a+x $rootdir/usr/bin/rpi-update
+mkdir -p $rootdir/lib/modules
+touch $rootdir/boot/start.elf
+chroot $rootdir rpi-update
+</pre></p>
+
+<p>Next, fetch the latest vmdebootstrap script and call it like this
+to build the image:</p>
+
+<pre>
+sudo ./vmdebootstrap \
+ --variant minbase \
+ --arch armel \
+ --distribution jessie \
+ --mirror http://http.debian.net/debian \
+ --image test.img \
+ --size 600M \
+ --bootsize 64M \
+ --boottype vfat \
+ --log-level debug \
+ --verbose \
+ --no-kernel \
+ --no-extlinux \
+ --root-password raspberry \
+ --hostname raspberrypi \
+ --foreign /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static \
+ --customize `pwd`/customize \
+ --package netbase \
+ --package git-core \
+ --package binutils \
+ --package ca-certificates \
+ --package wget \
+ --package kmod
+</pre></p>
+
+<p>The list of packages being installed are the ones needed by
+rpi-update to make the image bootable on the Raspberry Pi, with the
+exception of netbase, which is needed by debootstrap to find
+/etc/hosts with the minbase variant. I really wish there was a way to
+set up an Raspberry Pi using only packages in the Debian archive, but
+that is not possible as far as I know, because it boots from the GPU
+using a non-free binary blob.</p>
+
+<p>The build host need debootstrap, kpartx and qemu-user-static and
+probably a few others installed. I have not checked the complete
+build dependency list.</p>
+
+<p>The resulting image will not use the hardware floating point unit
+on the Raspberry PI, because the armel architecture in Debian is not
+optimized for that use. So the images created will be a bit slower
+than <a href="http://www.raspbian.org/">Raspbian</a> based images.</p>

+<a href="http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/Her-er-Edvard-Snowdens-mest-omtalte-avsloringer-7351734.html">den
+totale overvåkningen som foregår i den vestlige verden dokumenterer
+hvor sårbare vi er</a>. Men det slår meg at de som er mest sårbare
+for dette, myndighetspersoner på alle nivåer, neppe har innsett at de
+selv er de mest interessante personene å lage profiler på, for å kunne
+påvirke dem.</p>
+
+<p>For å ta et lite eksempel: Stortingets nettsted,
+<a href="http://www.stortinget.no/">www.stortinget.no</a> (og
+forsåvidt også
+<a href="http://data.stortinget.no/">data.stortinget.no</a>),
+inneholder informasjon om det som foregår på Stortinget, og jeg antar
+de største brukerne av informasjonen der er representanter og
+rådgivere på Stortinget. Intet overraskende med det. Det som derimot
+er mer skjult er at Stortingets nettsted bruker
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics">Google
+Analytics</a>, hvilket gjør at enhver som besøker nettsidene der også
+rapporterer om besøket via Internett-linjer som passerer Sverige,
+England og videre til USA. Det betyr at informasjon om ethvert besøk
+på stortingets nettsider kan snappes opp av svensk, britisk og USAs
+etterretningsvesen. De kan dermed holde et øye med hvilke
+Stortingssaker stortingsrepresentantene synes er interessante å sjekke
+ut, og hvilke sider rådgivere og andre på stortinget synes er
+interessant å besøke, når de gjør det og hvilke andre representanter
+som sjekker de samme sidene omtrent samtidig. Stortingets bruk av
+Google Analytics gjør det dermed enkelt for utenlands etteretning å
+spore representantenes aktivitet og interesse. Hvis noen av
+representantene bruker Google Mail eller noen andre tjenestene som
+krever innlogging, så vil det være enda enklere å finne ut nøyaktig
+hvilke personer som bruker hvilke nettlesere og dermed knytte
+informasjonen opp til enkeltpersoner på Stortinget.</p>
+
+<p>Og jo flere nettsteder som bruker Google Analytics, jo bedre
+oversikt over stortingsrepresentantenes lesevaner og interesse blir
+tilgjengelig for svensk, britisk og USAs etterretning. Hva de kan
+bruke den informasjonen til overlater jeg til leseren å undres
+over.</p>

+ <div class="date">21st October 2013</div>
+ <div class="body"><p>The last few days I have been experimenting with
+<a href="http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki">the
+batman-adv mesh technology</a>. I want to gain some experience to see
+if it will fit <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox">the
+Freedombox project</a>, and together with my neighbors try to build a
+mesh network around the park where I live. Batman-adv is a layer 2
+mesh system ("ethernet" in other words), where the mesh network appear
+as if all the mesh clients are connected to the same switch.</p>
+
+<p>My hardware of choice was the Linksys WRT54GL routers I had lying
+around, but I've been unable to get them working with batman-adv. So
+instead, I started playing with a
+<a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/">Raspberry Pi</a>, and tried to
+get it working as a mesh node. My idea is to use it to create a mesh
+node which function as a switch port, where everything connected to
+the Raspberry Pi ethernet plug is connected (bridged) to the mesh
+network. This allow me to hook a wifi base station like the Linksys
+WRT54GL to the mesh by plugging it into a Raspberry Pi, and allow
+non-mesh clients to hook up to the mesh. This in turn is useful for
+Android phones using <a href="http://servalproject.org/">the Serval
+Project</a> voip client, allowing every one around the playground to
+phone and message each other for free. The reason is that Android
+phones do not see ad-hoc wifi networks (they are filtered away from
+the GUI view), and can not join the mesh without being rooted. But if
+they are connected using a normal wifi base station, they can talk to
+every client on the local network.</p>
+
+<p>To get this working, I've created a debian package
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node">meshfx-node</a>
+and a script
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node/blob/master/build-rpi-mesh-node">build-rpi-mesh-node</a>
+to create the Raspberry Pi boot image. I'm using Debian Jessie (and
+not Raspbian), to get more control over the packages available.
+Unfortunately a huge binary blob need to be inserted into the boot
+image to get it booting, but I'll ignore that for now. Also, as
+Debian lack support for the CPU features available in the Raspberry
+Pi, the system do not use the hardware floating point unit. I hope
+the routing performance isn't affected by the lack of hardware FPU
+support.</p>
+
+<p>To create an image, run the following with a sudo enabled user
+after inserting the target SD card into the build machine:</p>
+
+<p><pre>
+% wget -O build-rpi-mesh-node \
+ https://raw.github.com/petterreinholdtsen/meshfx-node/master/build-rpi-mesh-node
+% sudo bash -x ./build-rpi-mesh-node > build.log 2>&1
+% dd if=/root/rpi/rpi_basic_jessie_$(date +%Y%m%d).img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M
+%
+</pre></p>
+
+<p>Booting with the resulting SD card on a Raspberry PI with a USB
+wifi card inserted should give you a mesh node. At least it does for
+me with a the wifi card I am using. The default mesh settings are the
+ones used by the Oslo mesh project at Hackeriet, as I mentioned in
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Oslo_community_mesh_network___with_NUUG_and_Hackeriet_at_Hausmania.html">an
+earlier blog post about this mesh testing</a>.</p>
+
+<p>The mesh node was not horribly expensive either. I bought
+everything over the counter in shops nearby. If I had ordered online
+from the lowest bidder, the price should be significantly lower:</p>
+
+<p><table>
+
+<tr><th>Supplier</th><th>Model</th><th>NOK</th></tr>
+<tr><td>Teknikkmagasinet</td><td>Raspberry Pi model B</td><td>349.90</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Teknikkmagasinet</td><td>Raspberry Pi type B case</td><td>99.90</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Lefdal</td><td>Jensen Air:Link 25150</td><td>295.-</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Clas Ohlson</td><td>Kingston 16 GB SD card</td><td>199.-</td></tr>
+<tr><td>Total cost</td><td></td><td>943.80</td></tr>
+
+</table></p>
+
+<p>Now my mesh network at home consist of one laptop in the basement
+connected to my production network, one Raspberry Pi node on the 1th
+floor that can be seen by my neighbor across the park, and one
+play-node I use to develop the image building script. And some times
+I hook up my work horse laptop to the mesh to test it. I look forward
+to figuring out what kind of latency the batman-adv setup will give,
+and how much packet loss we will experience around the park. :)</p>

figure out which one would be "best" for some definitions of best, but
given that the community mesh group in Oslo is so small, I believe it
is best to hook up with the existing one instead of trying to create a

batman-adv for now. It sure help me to know that the very cool

is using batman-adv as their meshing technology when it create a self
to figure out a good business plan for mesh networking and as far as I

-<p>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</p>
-
-<p>Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based
-on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
-configured school network. Immediately after installation a school
-server running all services needed for a school network is set up just
-waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable
-Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after
-initial installation of the main server from CD or USB stick all other
-machines can be installed via the network. The provided school server
-provides LDAP database and Kerberos authentication service,
-centralized home directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other
-services. The desktop contains more than 60 educational software
-packages and more are available from the Debian archive, and schools
-can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
-
-<p>This is the seventh test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically
-this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the
-Squeeze release.</p>
-
-<p>Notes for upgrades from Alpha Prereleases</p>
-
-<p>Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
-deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
-gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined on the mailing list. (2)
-Accept the new version of gosa.conf and replace both contained admin
-password placeholders with the password hashes found in the old one
-(backup copy!). In both cases all users need to change their password
-to make sure a password is set for CIFS access to their home
-directory.</p>

- <div class="date">10th September 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>I was introduced to the
-<a href="http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/">Freedombox project</a>
-in 2010, when Eben Moglen presented his vision about serving the need
-of non-technical people to keep their personal information private and
-within the legal protection of their own homes. The idea is to give
-people back the power over their network and machines, and return
-Internet back to its intended peer-to-peer architecture. Instead of
-depending on a central service, the Freedombox will give everyone
-control over their own basic infrastructure.</p>
-
-<p>I've intended to join the effort since then, but other tasks have
-taken priority. But this summers nasty news about the misuse of trust
-and privilege exercised by the "western" intelligence gathering
-communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I
-actually started working on the project a while back.</p>
-
-<p>The <a href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/freedombox/">initial
-Debian initiative</a> based on the vision from Eben Moglen, is to
-create a simple and cheap Debian based appliance that anyone can hook
-up in their home and get access to secure and private services and
-communication. The initial deployment platform have been the
-<a href="http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-dreamplugdetails.aspx">Dreamplug</a>,
-which is a piece of hardware I do not own. So to be able to test what
-the current Freedombox setup look like, I had to come up with a way to install
-it on some hardware I do have access to. I have rewritten the
-<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedom-maker">freedom-maker</a>
-image build framework to use .deb packages instead of only copying
-setup into the boot images, and thanks to this rewrite I am able to
-set up any machine supported by Debian Wheezy as a Freedombox, using
-the previously mentioned deb (and a few support debs for packages
-missing in Debian).</p>
-
-<p>The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping
-scripts
-(<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/freedombox-setup">freedombox-setup</a>),
-and a administrative web interface
-(<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/Plinth">plinth</a> + exmachina +
-withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/privoxy">privoxy</a>
-(freedombox-privoxy). There is also a web/javascript based XMPP
-client (<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/jwchat">jwchat</a>)
-trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server
-(<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/ejabberd">ejabberd</a>). The
-web interface is pluggable, and the goal is to use it to enable OpenID
-services, mesh network connectivity, use of TOR, etc, etc. Not much of
-this is really working yet, see
-<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedombox-todos/blob/master/TODO">the
-project TODO</a> for links to GIT repositories. Most of the code is
-on github at the moment. The HTTP proxy is operational out of the
-box, and the admin web interface can be used to add/remove plinth
-users. I've not been able to do anything else with it so far, but
-know there are several branches spread around github and other places
-with lots of half baked features.</p>
-
-<p>Anyway, if you want to have a look at the current state, the
-following recipes should work to give you a test machine to poke
-at.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Debian Wheezy amd64</strong></p>
-
-<ol>
-
-<li>Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.</li>
-<li>Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.</li>
-<li><p>Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument
-to the Debian installer:<p>
-<pre>url=<a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat</a></pre></li>
-
-<li>Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to
-install on.</li>
-
-<li>When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a
-few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.</li>
-
-</ol>
-
-<p><strong>Raspberry Pi Raspbian</strong></p>
-
-<ol>
-
-<li>Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.</li>
-<li>Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.</li>
-<li><p>Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:</p>
-<pre>
-deb <a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox</a> wheezy main
-</pre></li>
-<li><p>Run this as root:</p>
-<pre>
-wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
- apt-key add -
-apt-get update
-apt-get install freedombox-setup
-/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
-</pre></li>
-<li>Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.</li>
-
-</ol>
-
-<p>You can test it on other architectures too, but because the
-freedombox-privoxy package is binary, it will only work as intended on
-the architectures where I have had time to build the binary and put it
-in my APT repository. But do not let this stop you. It is only a
-short "<tt>apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy</tt>" away. :)</p>
-
-<p>Note that by default Freedombox is a DHCP server on the
-192.168.1.0/24 subnet, so if this is your subnet be careful and turn
-off the DHCP server by running "<tt>update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server
-disable</tt>" as root.</p>
-
-<p>Please let me know if this works for you, or if you have any
-problems. We gather on the IRC channel
-<a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">#freedombox</a> on
-irc.debian.org and the
-<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss">project
-mailing list</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit
-<tt>http://your-host-name:8001/</tt> to see the state of the plint
-welcome screen (dead end - do not be surprised if you are unable to
-get past it), and next visit <tt>http://your-host-name:8001/help/</tt>
-to look at the rest of plinth. The default user is 'admin' and the
-default password is 'secret'.</p>

- <div class="date"> 8th September 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>I 2011 raderte et stortingsflertall bestående av Høyre og
-Arbeiderpartiet vekk en betydelig del av privatsfæren til det norske
-folk. Det ble vedtatt at det skulle registreres og lagres i et halvt
-år hvor alle som bærer på en mobiltelefon befinner seg, hvem de
-snakker med og hvor lenge de snakket sammen. Det skal også
-registreres hvem de sendte SMS-meldinger til, hvem en har sendt epost
-til, og hvilke nett-tjenere en besøkte. Saken er kjent som
-<a href="http://beta.holderdeord.no/issues/innfore-datalagringsdirektivet">Datalagringsdirektivet
-(DLD)</a>, og innebærer at alle innbyggerne og andre innenfor Norges
-grenser overvåkes døgnet rundt. Det ble i praksis innført brev og
-besøkskontroll av hele befolkningen. Rapporter fra de landene som
-allerede har innført slik total lagring av borgernes
-kommunikasjonsmønstre forteller at det ikke hjelper i
-kriminalitetsbekjempelsen. Den norske prislappen blir mange hundre
-millioner, uten at det ser ut til å bidra positivt til politiets
-arbeide. Jeg synes flere hundre millioner i stedet burde vært brukt
-på noe som kan dokumenteres å ha effekt i kriminalitetsbekjempelsen.
-Se mer på
-<a href="http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datalagringsdirektivet">Wikipedia</a>
-og <a href="http://www.uhuru.biz/?cat=84">Jon Wessel-Aas</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Hva er problemet, tenkter du kanskje? Et åpenbart problem er at
-medienes kildevern i praksis blir radert ut. Den innsamlede
-informasjonen gjør det mulig å finne ut hvem som har snakket med
-journalister på telefon, SMS og epost, og hvem som har vært i nærheten
-av journalister så sant begge bar med seg en telefon. Et annet er at
-advokatvernet blir sterkt redusert, der politiet kan finne ut hvem
-som har snakket med en advokat når, eller vært i møter en med advokat.
-Et tredje er at svært personlig informasjon kan avledes fra hvilke
-nettsteder en har besøkt. Har en besøkt hivnorge.no,
-swingersnorge.com eller andre sider som kan brukes til avlede
-interesser som hører til privatsfæren, vil denne informasjonen være
-tilgjengelig takket være datalagringsdirektivet.</p>
-
-<p>De fleste partiene var mot, kun to partier stemte for. Høyre og
-Arbeiderpartiet. Og både Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet i Oslo har
-DLD-forkjempere på toppen av sine lister (har ikke sjekket de andre
-fylkene). Det er dermed helt uaktuelt for meg å stemme på disse
-partiene. Her er oversikten over partienes valglister i Oslo, med
-informasjon om hvem som stemte hva i første DLD-votering i Stortinget,
-basert på informasjon fra mine venner i

- <div class="date">22nd August 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>The second wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up
-today, slightly delayed because of some bugs in the initial Windows
-integration fixes . This is the release announcement:</p>
-
-<p><strong>New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b1 released 2013-08-22</strong></p>
-
-<p>These are the release notes for Debian Edu / Skolelinux
-7.1+edu0~b1, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".</p>
-
-<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
-
-<p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
-Skolelinux</a>, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an
-out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school
-network. Immediately after installation a school server running all
-services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users
-and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting
-environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of
-the main server from CD or USB stick all other machines can be
-installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP
-database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home
-directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The
-desktop contains
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html">more
-than 60 educational software packages</a> and more are available from
-the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE
-and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
-
-<p>This is the sixth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically this
-is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the Squeeze
-release.</p>
-
-<p>ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
-versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
-release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
-deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
-gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined
-<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/08/msg00127.html">on
-the mailing list</a>. (2) Accept the new version of gosa.conf and
-replace both contained admin password placeholders with the password
-hashes found in the old one (backup copy!). In both cases every user
-need to change their their password to make sure a password is set for
-CIFS access to their home directory.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>Added ssh askpass packages to default installation, to ensure ssh
- work also without a attached tty.</li>
-<li>Add the command-not-found package to the default installation to
- make it easier to figure out where to find missing command line
- tools. Please note, that the command 'update-command-not-found'
- has to be run as root to actually make it useful (internet access
- required).</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p><strong>Other changes</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>Adjusted the USB stick ISO image build to include every tool
-needed for desktop=xfce installations.</li>
-<li>Adjust thin-client-server task to work when installing from USB
-stick ISO image.</li>
-<li>Made new grub artwork (changed png from indexed to RGB format).</li>
-<li>Minor cleanup in the CUPS setup.</li>
-<li>Make sure that bootstrapping of the Samba domain really happens
- during installation of the main server and adjust SID handling to
- cope with this.</li>
-<li>Make Samba passwords changeable (again) via GOsa².</li>
-<li>Fix generation of LM and NT password hashes via GOsa² to avoid
- empty password hashes.</li>
-<li>Adapted Samba machine domain joining to latest change in the
- smbldap-tools Perl package, fixing bugs blocking Windows machines
- from joining the Samba domain.</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p><strong>Known issues</strong></p>
-
-<ul>
-
-<li>KDE fails to understand the wpad.dat file provided, causing it to
- not use the http proxy as it should.</li>
-<li>Chromium also fails to use the proxy when using the KDE desktop
- (using the KDE configuration).</li>
-
-</ul>
-
-<p><strong>Where to get it</strong></p>
-
-<p>To download the multiarch netinstall CD release you can use</p>

- <div class="date">18th August 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>Earlier, I reported about
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_fix_a_Thinkpad_X230_with_a_broken_180_GB_SSD_disk.html">my
-problems using an Intel SSD 520 Series 180 GB disk</a>. Friday I was
-told by IBM that the original disk should be thrown away. And as
-there no longer was a problem if I bricked the firmware, I decided
-today to try to install Intel firmware to replace the Lenovo firmware
-currently on the disk.</p>
-
-<p>I searched the Intel site for firmware, and found
-<a href="https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3472&DwnldID=18363&ProductFamily=Solid-State+Drives+and+Caching&ProductLine=Intel%c2%ae+High+Performance+Solid-State+Drive&ProductProduct=Intel%c2%ae+SSD+520+Series+(180GB%2c+2.5in+SATA+6Gb%2fs%2c+25nm%2c+MLC)&lang=eng">issdfut_2.0.4.iso</a>
-(aka Intel SATA Solid-State Drive Firmware Update Tool) which
-according to the site should contain the latest firmware for SSD
-disks. I inserted the broken disk in one of my spare laptops and
-booted the ISO from a USB stick. The disk was recognized, but the
-program claimed the newest firmware already were installed and refused
-to insert any Intel firmware. So no change, and the disk is still
-unable to handle write load. :( I guess the only way to get them
-working would be if Lenovo releases new firmware. No idea how likely
-that is. Anyway, just blogging about this test for completeness. I
-got a working Samsung disk, and see no point in spending more time on
-the broken disks.</p>

- <div class="date"> 2nd August 2013</div>
- <div class="body"><p>It has been a while since my last update. Since last summer, I
-have worked on a Norwegian
-<a href="http://www.docbook.org/">docbook</a> version of the 2004 book
-<a href="http://free-culture.cc/">Free Culture</a> by Lawrence Lessig,
-to get a Norwegian text explaining the problems with the copyright
-law. Yesterday, I finally broken the 90% mark, when counting the
-number of strings to translate. Due to real life constraints, I have
-not had time to work on it since March, but when the summer broke out,
-I found time to work on it again. Still lots of work left, but the
-first draft is nearing completion. I created a graph to show the
-progress of the translation:</p>
-
-<p><img width="80%" align="center" src="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/raw/master/progress.png"></p>
-
-<p>When the first draft is done, the translated text need to be
-proof read, and the remaining formatting problems with images and SVG
-drawings need to be fixed. There are probably also some index entries
-missing that need to be added. This can be done by comparing the
-index entries listed in the SiSU version of the book, or comparing the
-English docbook version with the paper version. Last, the colophon
-page with ISBN numbers etc need to be wrapped up before the release is
-done. I should also figure out how to get correct Norwegian sorting
-of the index pages. All docbook tools I have tried so far (xmlto,
-docbook-xsl, dblatex) get the order of symbols and the special
-Norwegian letters ÆØÅ wrong.</p>
-
-<p>There is still need for translators and people with docbook
-knowledge, to be able to get a good looking book (I still struggle
-with dblatex, xmlto and docbook-xsl) as well as to do the draft
-translation and proof reading. And I would like the figures to be
-redrawn as SVGs to make it easy to translate them. Any SVG master
-around? There are also some legal terms that are unfamiliar to me.
-If you want to help, please get in touch with me, and check out the
-project files currently available from
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">github</a>.</p>
-
-<p>If you are curious what the translated book currently look like,
-the updated
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/blob/master/archive/freeculture.nb.pdf?raw=true">PDF</a>
-and
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig/blob/master/archive/freeculture.nb.epub?raw=true">EPUB</a>
-are published on github. The HTML version is published as well, but
-github hand it out with MIME type text/plain, confusing browsers, so I
-saw no point in linking to that version.</p>
