lx-trainer
==========

Manuel Traut <manut@linutronix.de>

lx-trainer is our disk image for all trainings.

To build the image, a modified elbe initvm is needed.
The default disk-size of 20GB is not enough!

ELBE generates just the first partition. However the
system is configured that there is a second partition
mounted by label 'home' on '/home'. This was made to
reduce the time needed to 'dd' the image to the disks.

E.g. i added the following content for the yocto training:
----
 % ls home-overlay/devel/yocto/
 downloads  pres_lx-trainer-vm.pdf   pres_yocto-basic.pdf
 meta-mini  pres_yocto-advanced.pdf  pres_yocto-intro.pdf
----

The dd scirpts provided here are just examples how to put
the image on (multiple) usb hard-drives and add the home
partition. They should be used as templates and need modifications
to fit on your environment.

The update-home script is used to update just the '/home'
partition. E.g. collect the disks after the first training
day, and add some stuff for the 2nd day.
