In order to build in the Infra system, we'd like to be able to reuse the existing doc build macros. To support that, move docs/source to doc/source and docs/html to doc/build/html. Change-Id: Ibd8e8e82e54c69b182120df67e6ec6908fed2908

<h3>Hardware</h3>
|
|
<p>This guide covers the creation of a bootable USB drive. Your
|
|
computer BIOS must support booting from USB and You will want at least 3GB of
|
|
RAM. You also will need a USB drive of at least 2GB.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Software</h3>
|
|
<p>Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) is required on host to create images.</p>

<h3>Set Up USB Drive</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Insert the USB drive into the computer. Make a note of the device name, such as
|
|
<code>sdb</code>. Do not mount the device.</li>
|
|
<li>Install the boot system:
|
|
<pre>tools/build_usb_boot.sh /dev/sdb1</pre>
|
|
<p>This calls tools/build_ramdisk.sh to create a 2GB ramdisk
|
|
containing a complete development Oneiric OS plus the
|
|
OpenStack code checkouts. It then writes a syslinux boot sector
|
|
to the specified device and creates <code>/syslinux</code>.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>If desired, you may now mount the device:
|
|
<pre>mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/tmp
|
|
# foo
|
|
umount /mnt/tmp</pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now <a href="ramdisk.html">return</a> to the RAM disk Guide to kick
|
|
off your DevStack experience.</p>
