filesystems.lst - keep track of which filesystems are local/remote, and where to find them
filesystems.lst
is the file used to keep track of which filesystem tarballs are stored locally,
which are stored remotely, and where to get them when when they are needed.
This file is used by the newdisk
utility to create new xen guest slices.
An entry in filesystems.lst
takes the form:
distribution local? location
For example, a Debian Woody tarball stored locally might look like this:
woody yes /path/to/DebianWoody.tar.bz2
A FreeBSD tarball stored remotely at http://server.com/path/to/FreeBSD.tar.bz2 would look like this:
freebsd no http://server.com/path/to/FreeBSD.tar.bz2
After entering an entry for a remote tarball, when it is downloaded by newdisk
, the list is
automatically updated.
