Gentoo Bootstrap Java

This is a Java reimplementation of the the Gentoo Bootstrap bash scripts. The purpose is to allow for more flexibility with options, to more easily make your own script to run on the server side, and to eliminate the need for the ec2-api-tools.

Pygoscelis Papua

The successor to the Gentoo in the Cloud images is Pygoscelis Papua images:

64-bit EBS us-east-1

java \
-Darchaius.configurationSource.additionalUrls=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/Pygoscelis-Papua-64-bit-EBS_us-east-1.properties \
-Dlog4j.configuration=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/log4j-info-console.properties \
-jar gentoo-console-bootstrap/target/gentoo-console-bootstrap.jar

32-bit EBS us-east-1

java \
-Darchaius.configurationSource.additionalUrls=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/Pygoscelis-Papua-32-bit-EBS_us-east-1.properties \
-Dlog4j.configuration=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/log4j-info-console.properties \
-jar gentoo-console-bootstrap/target/gentoo-console-bootstrap.jar

HVM us-east-1

java \
-Darchaius.configurationSource.additionalUrls=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/Pygoscelis-Papua-HVM_us-east-1.properties \
-Dlog4j.configuration=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/log4j-info-console.properties \
-jar gentoo-console-bootstrap/target/gentoo-console-bootstrap.jar

If a different mirror is desired, set com.dowdandassociates.gentoo.bootstrap.mirror like so:

java \
-Darchaius.configurationSource.additionalUrls=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/Pygoscelis-Papua-HVM_us-east-1.properties \
-Dlog4j.configuration=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/log4j-info-console.properties \
-Dcom.dowdandassociates.gentoo.bootstrap.mirror=http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ \
-jar gentoo-console-bootstrap/target/gentoo-console-bootstrap.jar

There were difficulties in the past of getting an executable jar that worked with later versions of the aws java sdk. However the following script for converting a 64-bit EBS image is still useful to eliminate a separate hvm build. It requires the aws cli tool and jq

cd hvm
./paravirtual2hvm <64-bit-ebs-image-id>

so for example

cd hvm
./paravirtual2hvm ami-19ad9f70

Gentoo in the Cloud

-Dlog4j.configuration=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/log4j-info-console.properties \
-jar gentoo-console-bootstrap/target/gentoo-console-bootstrap.one-jar.jar

32-bit EBS us-east-1

java \
-Darchaius.configurationSource.additionalUrls=https://bitbucket.org/edowd/gentoo_bootstrap_java/raw/master/config/Gentoo_32-bit-EBS_us-east-1.properties \
