TODO clarify:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* /boot will not be mounted to efi partition, instead /boot/efi ist the mountpoint.
|
|
|
|
|
this prevents /boot from getting full by automated installs, and allows the kernel
|
|
|
|
|
script to keep exactly two versions (last working kernel), and new one.
|
|
|
|
|
* kernel without module loading capability for security. localyesconfig

Recommendations:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Use umask 0077
|
|
|
|
|
* Edit sshd_config, change port and create a sshusers group for users which may use ssh.
|
|
|
|
|
* Use LUKS encryption on the disk
|
|
|
|
|
* Use a properly configured kernel, at best restrict even USB!

**TL;DR:** Installs gentoo on a new system, suited for both servers and desktops.
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally prepares ansible for automatic system configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
See [Install](#Install) for usage instructions.

|
|
|
This script will install a minimal (no-bloat) EFI bootable gentoo system.
|
|
|
|
|
It will stick closely to the [Gentoo AMD64 Handbook](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64)
|
|
|
|
|
and [Sakaki's EFI Install Guide](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Sakaki%27s_EFI_Install_Guide).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What you will get:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Minimal system configuration
|
2020-01-04 19:55:42 -01:00
|
|
|
* Temporary vanilla kernel (precompiled by gentoo), in my opinion you
|
|
|
|
|
should replace this kernel with a custom made kernel for your system.
|
|
|
|
|
See [Kernel](#Kernel) for details on how to achieve that with low effort.
|
2020-01-04 12:41:45 -01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What you can get optionally:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* LUKS
|
|
|
|
|
* EFI secure boot
|
|
|
|
|
* Initramfs (compiled into the kernel for EFIstub)
|
2020-01-04 16:33:41 -01:00
|
|
|
* Preconfigured sshd
|
2020-01-04 19:55:42 -01:00
|
|
|
* Ansible ready (packages, user, ssh)
|
|
|
|
|
* Additional packages of your choice (only trivial installations without use flag changes)
|
2020-01-04 12:41:45 -01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What you will **NOT** get: (i.e. you will have to do it yourself)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* X11 desktop environment
|
2020-01-04 19:55:42 -01:00
|
|
|
* A user for yourself (except `root` obviously)
|
2020-01-04 12:41:45 -01:00
|
|
|
* Any form of RAID
|
2020-01-04 19:55:42 -01:00
|
|
|
* A specialized kernel, see [Kernel](#Kernel) for details on how to get one.
|
2020-01-04 12:41:45 -01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only necessary configuration is applied to provide a common baseline system.
|
2019-12-31 14:28:42 -01:00
|
|
|
If you need advanced features such as an initramfs or a different
|
|
|
|
|
partitioning scheme, you can definitely use this script but will
|
|
|
|
|
have to make some adjustments to it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main purpose of this script is to provide a universal setup
|
|
|
|
|
which should be suitable for most use-cases (desktop and server installations).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
#### Overview of executed tasks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Check live system
|
|
|
|
|
* Sync time
|
|
|
|
|
* Partition disks
|
|
|
|
|
* Format partitions
|
|
|
|
|
* Download stage3
|
|
|
|
|
* Extract stage3
|
|
|
|
|
* Chroot into new system
|
|
|
|
|
* Update portage tree
|
|
|
|
|
* ... TODO MISSING!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### GPT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The script will create GPT partition tables. If your system cannot use GPT,
|
|
|
|
|
this script is not suited for it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### EFI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is assumed that your system can (and will) be booted via EFI.
|
|
|
|
|
This is not a strict requirement, but othewise you will be responsible
|
|
|
|
|
to make the system bootable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This probably involves the following steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Change partition type of `efi` partition to `ef02` (BIOS boot partition)
|
|
|
|
|
* Change partition name and filesystem name to `boot`
|
|
|
|
|
* Install and configure syslinux
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe there will be a convenience script for this at some point.
|
|
|
|
|
No promises though.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Optional: Ansible ready
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally, this script can make the new system ready to be
|
|
|
|
|
used with ansible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It will do the following steps for you:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Create an ansible user
|
|
|
|
|
* Generate an ssh keypair (type configurable)
|
|
|
|
|
* Setup a secure sshd (safe ciphers, login only with keypair)
|
|
|
|
|
* Install ansible
