„Damn Small Linux“ in Virtualbox Installationsanleitung „Damn Small Linux“ in VirtualBox „Damn Small Linux“ in Virtual Box In dieser Anleitung wird beschrieben, wie sich ein vorbereitetes Image der Linux-Distribution Damn Small Linux (DSL) in der Virtualisierungsumgebung Virtual Box installieren lässt. Diese Anleitung ist dabei auf private Laptops/PCs abgestimmt. Auf den Hochschul-Rechnern funktioniert dies aufgrund fehlender Rechte sowie Speicherplatz nicht. Vorbereitende Arbeiten Download VirtualBox und ExtensionPack: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads (abgerufen am 14.04.2013, 19:03 Uhr) Installation VirtualBox und ExtensionPack über heruntergeladene Setup-Dateien mit vorausgewählten Einstellungen Download DSL-Image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/w8l9luy2274i0g9/DSL.7z Entpacken des Archivs in ein beliebiges Verzeichnis Konfiguration VirtualBox starten Unter „Datei“ „Appliance importieren“ auswählen und im folgenden Dialog die zuvor entpackte *.ova Datei auswählen. Anschließend mit „Weiter“ und „Importieren“ den Wizard beenden. Starten der VM Mit einem Klick auf „Start“ wird die erzeugte VM gestartet. Die erscheinenden Dialoge bieten zusätzliche Informationen, z. B. bezüglich dem „Fangen“ der Tastatur. Nach dem Hochfahren kann sich über die Konsole mit dem Nutzer „wiinfo“ und dem Passwort „wiinfo“ am System angemeldet werden. Hierzu einmal mit der Maus in das Fenster der VM klicken. Die Tastatur ist nun „gefangen“ und Eingaben werden nicht am Host, sondern in der VM getätigt. Nach dem Login erscheint eine grafische Oberfläche Sollte keine Login-Abfrage, sondern ein Fehler in der Konsole stehen, ist das Fenster der VM mit einem Klick auf „X“ zu schließen und die VM neu zu starten. Im Auswahldialog kann „die virtuelle Maschine ausschalten“ gewählt werden. Mit einem Klick auf den Desktop kann das Kontext-Menü geöffnet werden. Unter „Apps > Tools > Emel File Manager > Emelfm“ kann ein Dateibrowser geöffnet werden. Hierbei ist zu beachten, dass im linken Bereich erst in das HOME-Verzeichnis des Nutzers „wiinfo“ gewechselt werden muss. Dazu in der Pfadleiste „/home/wiinfo“ eintragen und mit Return bestätigen. Eine Shell kann aus dem Kontext-Menü über „XShells > [Transparent | Light | Dark]“ geöffnet werden. @Prof. Dr. P. Mandl, M. Dolag 1 / 2 Installationsanleitung „Damn Small Linux“ in VirtualBox Abbildung 1 - DSL (Desktop) Mit dieser kleinen Distribution können alle Übungen durchgeführt werden. Daneben eignet sie sich wunderbar um einen ersten Einblick in Linux zu bekommen. Moderne Distributionen wie Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, CentOs, etc. haben einen deutlich höheren Funktionsumfang und haben grafisch bessere Oberflächen. Dies wird für die hier durchzuführenden Übungen jedoch nicht benötigt. Viel Spaß beim weiteren Erkunden der Möglichkeiten von „Damn Small Linux“ … @Prof. Dr. P. Mandl, M. Dolag 2 / 2 .

  • Download Iso File for Dsl Damn Small Linux
    download iso file for dsl Damn Small Linux. One of the smallest, ootable Live CD Linux operating systems in the whole wide world. Damn Small Linux (DSL) is a tiny operating system which borrows features from the Debian GNU/Linux and KNOPPIX distributions, the latter being based on Debian too. Distributed as a dual-arch Live CD that supports mainstream architectures. The project is distributed as a single Live CD ISO image of around 50MB in size, designed to support only the 32-bit instruction set architectures. It offers a minimal boot prompt in the style of Puppy Linux, from where users can only add particular boot parameters. Comes with two lightweight window managers. It uses both Fluxbox and JWM (Joe’s Window Manager) desktop environments, but it default to the latter when running directly from the Live CD. The system can be easily installed to a hard disk drive from the boot prompt. Key features include generic and GhostScript-based printer support, a web server, system monitoring applications, USB support, wireless support, PCMCIA support, several command-line tools, as well as support for NFS (Network File System). The JWM window manager is comprised of a system monitoring widget, a workspace switcher, a device manager, and a bottom panel for interacting with running applications. The main menu can be accessed by right clicking anywhere on the desktop. Includes a plethora of applications for a small distro. Default applications include the Dillo and Mozilla Firefox web browsers, Sylpheed email client, VNCviewer remote desktop client, XMMS music player, Xpdf PDF viewer, xZGV image viewer, Ted document viewer, Beaver text editor, axyFTP file transfer client, and mtPaint digital painting software.

Linux is a Unix-like and mostly standards compliant (POSIX) computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution. The defining component of Linux is the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on 5 October 1991 by Finnish software developer Linus Torvalds. Linux was originally developed as a free operating system for Intel x86–based personal computers, but has since been ported to more computer hardware platforms than any other operating system. Linux is the leading operating system on servers and other big iron systems such as mainframe computers and supercomputers, but is used on only around 1% of desktop computers. Linux also runs on embedded systems, which are devices whose operating system is typically built into the firmware and is highly tailored to the system; this includes mobile phones, tablet computers, network routers, facility automation controls, televisions and video game consoles.

    ITEC 5321 - Spring '07 Assignment 3 - Live CD Distribution Survey Deepanwita Bagchi February 10, 2007 LiveCD distributions (also having a generic name LiveDistro) are examples of open source operating systems which are executed upon boot, without manual installation. They are typically stored on bootable media such as a CD-ROM (LiveCD), DVD (Live DVD), USB flash drive (LIVE USB), among others. Among different liveCDs, Linux based ones are very popular. The Linux based liveCDs fall mainly under the following categories: • Debian-based, e.g. Ubuntu, Kanotix, Gnoppix, Knoppix, Damn Small Linux(DSL) etc. • Gentoo-based, e.g. Flash Linux, Jollix, Kororaa, VidaLinux, Gentoo LiveCD etc • RPM-based, e.g. PCLinuxOS, SuSE, etc. • Slackware-based, e.g. SLAX, SLAMPP, STUX, etc. Since the list of liveCDs is endless, it often becomes hard to choose which one to use. Functionality and context become the deciding factors. We can find liveCDs with a wide range of functions. Some of them are listed below: • Desktops: provides a working GUI desktop environment with a collection of desktop programs, such as browsers and text editors. Many also include utilities for other purposes, such as home entertainment, but are only listed here because the additional functions are not their primary focus. • OS Replacement: provides an option to transfer the cd to the hard drive, or to install an OS in a different form • Education: provides a collection of educational programs, or was created to be used in the educational field • Rescue: provides tools needed for data recovery • Clustering: provides tools for making clusters • Security: contains network security tools • Home Entertainment: geared towards playing video and audio • Gaming: video games! • Medical: contains medical programs • Diagnostics: contains utilities for testing hardware • Firewalls: distributions created to be used as firewalls • Forensics: distributions containing forensic tools • Servers: distributions used for various server functions DistroWatch.com and frozentech.com do a good job of listing the most popular liveCDs.

  • Remastering Knoppix
    Remastering Knoppix by Cecil Watson What is Knoppix? KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of GNU/Linux software, automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals. KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos. It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it. Why remaster? 1. Personalize distro to hardware. 2. Add/remove/update software. 3. Because you can! ;) Examples of various remasters: Auditor Security Collection is a Knoppix based LiveCD with focus on Security. Feature: standardized working environment, remote support, optimal toolset. Content: Tools for foot-printing, analysis, scanning, wireless driver, brute-forcing, cracking, information on standard configurations and password, 64 millions word list, productivity (web browsers, editor, graphic, report generator), Wellenreiter and Kismet with automatic hardware identification, wireless card drivers. • Homepage: http://www.remote-exploit.org Bioknoppix is a Knoppix based LiveCD from Puerto Rico, with focus on molecular biology and bioinformatic. Content: EMBOSS 2.8.0, jemboss1, artemis, clustal, Cn3D, ImageJ, Biopython, Rasmol, Bioperl, Bioconductor • Homepage: http://bioknoppix.hpcf.upr.edu/ The Bootable Cluster CD supports a drop-in solution for MPICH, LAM, PVM, open Mosix (http://openmosix.sourceforge.net/) parallel environments. Tools are available for debugging, compiling, and profiling parallel codes. Built from sources using GAR (a mix between BSD's "ports" system, Linux from scratch, and gentoo Linux).
