I have not run Clear Linux with VMWare yet, but standard
requirements/recommendations apply:
* emulated cpu must be set to IvyBridge compatible or better;
* the VM must boot with UEFI firmware
* if UEFI firmware is not available, one must perform direct kernel boot
* Haswell cpu is preferred

Can you please share the steps and if there are any hacks to get it working
?
Thanks.

Clear Linux boots from VMWare, right now we are working on a
documentation to share with the community.
Please stay tuned.

Hi
I am wondering if ClearLinux can be installed on a vmware fusion/player.
If anyone has done it successfully, can you please post your experience and
things to be aware of.
Thanks.
Hi Arjan,
As we known, KSM is an import feature for clear Linux. And huge page brings great performance. But KSM only supports 4K so far (correct me if I am wrong), is there any solution to make them work together?

This stuff is awkward to consume at the moment. We're working on
fixing that. I _really_ want to get this update code blessed such that
the git repo could just be on github or where ever on the internet,
mailing list, docu, etc. Compilable sources does not make a sustainable
open source collaboration, which is definitely where I want this to be.
But there's paperwork to be done...
So in the meantime, sources flow out at, eg:
https://download.clearlinux.org/releases/2730/clear/source/SRPMS/swupd-clie…
which contains swupd-client-2.55.tar.gz, which has a swupd-client-2.55/ as
you'd expect. In there the bsdiff/swupd_bs*.c and include/swupd_bsdiff.h
are the intersting bits.
General things we've done to the bsdiff:
- some micro optim's in the bsdiff header format(s)
- extended set of block encodings: raw, bzip2, gzip, lzma2, and a simple 0 RLE
- various bits of debug (the original bsdiff code is a tad obtuse)
- adding error checking and handling
- remove errx (quite unfriendly to do as library code)
- fix some mem leaks and buffer overruns and hangs
- breaking out some helper functions so things aren't so monolithic and naively
assumed to succeed
- adding comments on things we struggle to understand
- add a crude check to notice that xattrs changed on the file being diff'd
Colin: Feel free to ping me with questions on any of it and fingers
crossed git history will be out there eventually here and our updater
development will all simply be out in the open in addition to the source
tarballs.

to run the docker setup, you'll need to (currently) run clear linux as a host OS
(we're not very far away from having it be able to run on more generic setups... probably a few days or so)
what kind of CPU does your system have? The crash you posted is common for cases where the CPU does not support AVX
(while Clear Linux currently is compiled with AVX support)
Hi Pradeep,
Could your provide the output from "cat /proc/cpuinfo"?
This is to know the cpu specs.
Also you said that you are running Clear Linux and try to run
containers in it. Am I right?
Thanks,

Hi,
I am trying to setup an environment, where I would like to run Docker
containers on ClearLinux. I tried to first follow the instructions from
https://download.clearlinux.org/demos/containers/ and I get the following
error. Any ideas on how to fix this? Also, are there any instructions for
using the latest images?
