初尝 Ubuntu 64

最近Ubuntu 8.04 rc刚出， 我脑袋一热装了个amd64版本的。

之前也想过是否要装个64位的，但是经过多方调查，当时64位无论是系统上还是软件上都不成熟。 比如没有flash插件和w32codecs， 不过现在不同了。 flash直接装nonfree的那个就行了， codec有w64codecs。 只是我的无线网卡配了好久。

总的来说性能有明显提升。注意是明显，不是很大。 而且我尽量排除了心里因素。 一个主要的改善是图形界面的响应整体加快了。

在64位的大形势下， 软硬件愈发成熟。 感觉真是不错。

A Rocky Migration: Moving from docker-compose to Podman and gVisor

I've been running a few containers for several years. They were all running under rootless Docker with a single user. Initially, I planned to  migrate the containers to VMs , but I couldn't get a stable workflow after about two months of effort. Later,  gVisor caught my attention , and I decided to migrate to Podman with gVisor instead. The new plan is to run each container with  --userns=auto  and use Quadlet for systemd integration. This approach provides better isolation and makes writing firewall rules easier. I'm now close to migrating all my containers. Here are a couple of rough edges I'd like to share. Network Layout I compared  various networking options  and spent a few hours trying the one-interface-per-group approach before giving up. I settled on a single macvlan network and decided to use static IP addresses for my containers. To prevent a randomly assigned IP address from conflicting with a predefined one, I allocated a large IP range for my ...

Exploring Immutable Distros and Declarative Management

My current server setup, based on Debian Stable and Docker, has served me reliably for years. It's stable, familiar, and gets the job done. However, an intriguing article I revisited recently about Fedora CoreOS, rpm-ostree, and OSTree native containers sparked my curiosity and sent me down a rabbit hole exploring alternative approaches to system management. Could there be a better way? Core Goals & Requirements Before diving into new technologies, I wanted to define what "better" means for my use case: The base operating system must update automatically and reliably. Hosted services (applications) should be updatable either automatically or manually, depending on the service. Configuration and data files need to be easy to modify, and crucially, automatically tracked and backed up. Current Setup: Debian Stable + Docker My current infrastructure consists of several servers, all running Debian Stable. System Updates are andled automatically via unattended-upgrades. Se...

mkosi: First Impressions

I stumbled upon the Gentoo wiki page for systemd-nspawn , which in turn led me to nspawn.org , mkosi , and later systemd-sysupdate . mkosi quickly caught my eye because it's almost exactly what I wanted to build myself, as mentioned in a previous post . So, I decided to spend my "sysadmin fun quota" on it. Overview mkosi is similar to docker build or podman build , but it's designed for creating full OS images. It focuses on development and testing. For example, much like nix-shell , mkosi can quickly launch a sandboxed shell with a specific distribution and selected packages installed. The systemd project itself uses mkosi for testing across different distros. The re-introduction article  is a great read. Speed Note that this is by no means a rigid benchmark. My setup is an SSD with LUKS and an ext4 filesystem (without reflink support). Building Container Images mkosi is pretty fast. A simple mkosi command creates a fresh Debian image. I used the --incrementa...
