Fedora - minimal
We have uploaded a new "minimal" template to our templates-itl repo. The template weighs only 150MB and has most of the stuff cut off, except for minimal X and xterm.
More into in ticket #828
Install
It can be installed via the following command:
{% highlight trac-wiki %} [user@dom0 ~]$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-20-x64-minimal {% endhighlight %}
Usage
It is a good idea to clone the original template, and make any changes in the new clone instead:
{% highlight trac-wiki %} [user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-clone fedora-20-x64-minimal {% endhighlight %}
The sudo package is not installed by default, so lets install it:
{% highlight trac-wiki %} [user@F20-Minimal ~]$ su - [user@F20-Minimal ~]$ yum install sudo {% endhighlight %}
The rsyslog logging service is not installed by default. All logging is now being handled by the systemd journal. Users requiring the rsyslog service should install it manually.
To access the journald log, use the following command: journalctl
as a NetVM
If You want to use this template to for standard NetVMs You should install some more packeges:
{% highlight trac-wiki %} [user@F20-Minimal ~]$ sudo yum install NetworkManager network-manager-applet wireless-tools dbus-x11 dejavu-sans-fonts tar tinyproxy {% endhighlight %}
And maybe some more optional but useful packages as well:
{% highlight trac-wiki %} [user@F20-Minimal ~]$ sudo yum install pciutils vim-minimal less tcpdump telnet psmisc nmap nmap-ncat {% endhighlight %}
If Your network device needs some firmware then you should also install the corresponding packages as well. The lspci; yum search firmware command will help to choose the right one :)
as a ProxyVM
If You want to use this template as a ProxyVM You may want to install evem more packages
Firewall
This template is ready to use for a standard firewall VM. However, using the default minimal template with the default firewall and default update settings will result in an error when attempting to update dom0 (qubes-dom0-update), since this process requires tar, which is not present by default in the minimal template.
VPN
The needed packages are depend on the VPN technology. yum search "NetworkManager VPN plugin" command may help you to choose the right one.
