  • FY 2011 Annual Report
    We're software roadies. Software Freedom Conservancy is a public charity that acts as a non-profit home for dozens of Free, Libre, and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects. Conservancy©s charitable mission is to help improve, develop, and defend FLOSS, and we do that by providing business, legal, and administrative services to our member projects. We have the honor of working with member projects comprised of, in our humble opinion, many of the best software developers in the world. Some of our member projects develop system software so ubiquitous that it permeates virtually every part of our society©s electronics-driven lifestyle. Other member projects are redefining how software will be written and even how computer science will be taught to the next generation of developers. Still others find their niche by solving a small-but- persistent problem better than anyone else ± and attract a cult following of users because of it. And, best of all, all of our member projects release their software under a license that allows the public to study, use, improve, and share the source code. Conservancy provides all of our ªrock starº member projects with a comprehensive suite of services, and then we get out of their way to let them do what they do best: write great software for the public©s benefit. Our structure. Conservancy acts as a fiscal sponsor to our member projects. We©ve engaged the leadership of each member project©s developer community and executed a fiscal sponsorship agreement that allows us to adopt that project as an official part of Conservancy©s corporate structure.

  • Patagonia Clonesys – a Tool to Install Multi-Boot Environments
    Patagonia CloneSys – A Tool to Install Multi-Boot Environments Christian Kurmann, Felix Rauch, Thomas M. Stricker Laboratory for Computersystems ETH Zurich, Switzerland Revised 24 November 1999, Christian Kurmann 1 Introduction The Patagonia CloneSys is designed to provide easy system installations on multi- boot and multi-purpose Clusters of PC’s. Do keep it easy and circumvent the devel- opment of a proprietary system it is based on standard UNIX tools and can easily be ported to other flavours of UNIXes. The scripts and ideas are subject to change and are provided as they are without any support. 2 Cloning: Basic Ideas Everybody knows the drudgery involved in manually setting up and rolling out new PCs, updating existing PCs, and recovering failed PCs. CloneSys makes a big dent in the time required to conduct these jobs. It first creates an exact image of a PC’s hard drive, effectively taking a ”snapshot” of all the files — hidden, visible, and active — that make up the operating system, applications, and configuration settings. The image can then be copied to any number of PCs, thereby creating completely identical installations. Moreover, it can be copied to many PCs simultaneously. This process it completely operating system independent which makes the system very easy and fast. As the raw disk data is copied, no file system initialization is needed, even the partitioning is implicitly done with a total clone. To support multi-boot environments the installation of single partitions is supported as well. To keep the system even easier as other commercially available tools we based it on freely available UNIX tools and Linux.
