 Posted: Tue Oct 06, 2020 8:23 pm Post subject: Re-visiting Gentoo/FreeBSD 11.1 |
 |
|
I've spent the last several days gathering and researching as much information as I can about FreeBSD 11.1 and I was able to get a fully working chroot. The way I accomplished this was from the provided 9.1 stage and tons of time hunting down source files on obscure and dying mirrors, and reviewing git commit logs.
| Code: | # Boot 12.1 CD
# Drop to shell
dhclient vtnet0 (or your interface)
# Create GPTS with UFS / standard FreeBSD boot loader
gpart create -s GPT ada0 # check /dev for drive number
gpart add -s 64k -t freebsd-boot ada0
gpart add -s 29G -t freebsd-ufs -l root ada0
gpart add -t freebsd-swap -l swap ada0
newfs -L gfbsdroot -U /dev/ada0p2
mount /dev/ufs/gfbsdroot /mnt
swapon /dev/gpt/swap
cd /mnt
tar -jxvpf stage3-*.tar.bz2
mount -t devfs none /mnt/dev/
cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc/
chroot /mnt/ /bin/bash
env-update && source /etc/profile
# You'll need portage snapshot: gentoo-20171201.tar.bz2 or there abouts.
# git checkout `git rev-list -n 1 --before="2017-30-12 13:37" master`
ln -sf /usr/portage/profiles/default-bsd/fbsd/11.1/x86/ /etc/portage/make.profile
# Follow Upgrade Toolchain Guide https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_FreeBSD/Upgrade_Guide
# Use search engine to wget all the rare old files to /usr/portage/distfiles
# after installing b00t0, exit chroot and install bootloader:
gpart bootcode -b /mnt/boot/pmbr -p /mnt/boot/gptboot -i 1 ada0 |
At this point the kernel will not boot, the bootloader says "Booting...". Not sure if this is a bug in FreeBSD 11.1 or if I configured something wrong with boot0.
However, the toolchain is sound and the chroot is working, emerge --info:

Next steps would be to see if portage can be updated to 3.x. And if ebuilds can be created for 12.1. It seems a lot of sabotage occurred in portage and catalyst over the years making it not possible without some extensive patching. Current hack to get portage upgraded (not-working):
| Code: | # Download portage snapshot, extract to /tmp/snapshot
# Force our keyword since it's totally impossible to add a new architecture right now even with ekeyword
grep -rl 'amd64 ' /tmp/snapshot | xargs sed -i 's/amd64/amd64-fbsd/g'
# Delete useless new profiles, since ALL freebsd profiles were purged, including eclasses etc.
rm -rf /tmp/snapshot/profiles
cp -r /tmp/snapshot/* /usr/portage
# Yay, all digest now corrupted!
# Repoman can be built but, can't realistically repoman the entire tree (tons of 404s on old junk)
# ebuild *.ebuild manifest STILL thinks it's cool to get digest for entire folder, not just the ebuild you want
# So.... rm non-working ebuilds and ignore digest, forcing upgrade...
emerge --digest -qav python
USE='-rsync-verify' emerge --digest -qavO portage
emerge -qav portage
|
Unfortunately, you'll now end up with a portage that can't emerge anything due to can't find dependency of "__const__empty-any-of". Whatever the heck that means. 
If anyone is interested in the last-known working freebsd 11.1 let me know and will upload a tarball. I can't create a real stage3 from it since catalyst is barely documented and it isn't working even using the 2.x old version. I think it would work with 2.x if I was able to boot, but not inside chroot (since you can't chroot inside of a chroot). |

I would love to try this, but the file is gone. Are you still working on this? Thanks

Didn't know anyone else was interested, looks like the free file host dropped my file in less than a month.
Re-Uploaded 11.1: https://www.mediafire.com/file/clspvm40hrimhp2/stage3-amd64-fbsd-11.1-forcestage3.tar.bz2/file
I stopped since I can't get portage to update without breaking it, and the aforementioned boot0 problem. It should be possible however, and new ebuilds could be made for the 12.2 base system, most of the same profile helper scripts still work.
If anyone makes any further progress please post about it and/or throw up an overlay. I think there are several undocumented portage features that could help in this endeavor (e.g. thin-manifests to avoid downloading all the source code, profile overrides etc., but I haven't actually figured it all out yet) |

|
|
Hello there,
I've tried this filesystem but seems to be corrupt, the first error was unpacking the filesystem, tar show some errors about truncated content of the file:
| Code: |
./tmp/portage-2.3.6.tar.bz2: Truncated tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.
|
then when tried to chroot somethings aren't working:
| Code: |
root@:~ # chroot /mnt /bin/bash
/ # ls
Shared object "libxo.so.0" not found, required by "ls"
/ # emerge --help
bash: emerge: command not found
|
Also I notice the pseudo fllesystem causes permissions errors when "untaring", so I've tried this but no success
| Code: |
tar xfp stage3-amd64-fbsd-11.1-forcestage3.tar --ignore-zeros --exclude="dev" --exclude="proc" --exclude="boot" --exclude="mnt" --exclude="tmp" -C /mnt
|
Do you already have the pc or vm where you generated the stage3 image?
