TechnologyInstallation
Install via;
sudo pacman -S puppet
Configurate this machine into server mode.
Install new Virtual Machine
Install a new ubuntu14.04 using qemu, and install puppet in it.
Generate the configuration file for mirror.list of Ubuntu.
Finally use the vdi file in the Ubuntu.
Install puppet in Ubuntu14.04:
http://linuxconfig.org/puppet-installation-on-linux-ubuntu-14-04-trusty-tahr
Make Ubuntu use a fixed IP.
$ cat /etc/network/interface
# s file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.0.0.88
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.1
And Copy the virtual disk, and change the UUID of the disk:
$ VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid ./Ubuntu.vdi
UUID changed to: d1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Be sure to change the ip address to 10.0.0.89.
Now we have 2 machines.
No password enter for ssh login:
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub| ssh Trusty@10.0.0.88 'cat>>~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub| ssh Trusty@10.0.0.89 'cat>>~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
Server and Client
Install Server side in 10.0.0.88:
sudo apt-get install puppetmaster
In 10.0.0.88, edit /etc/hosts:
10.0.0.89 client
While in 10.0.0.89, edit /etc/hosts:
10.0.0.88 puppet
In client(10.0.0.89), start the service of puppet:
$ sudo service puppet start
* Starting puppet agent
puppet not configured to start, please edit /etc/default/puppet to enable
[ OK ]
In server(10.0.0.88), start the service of puppet master:
Add following lines in to /etc/puppet/puppet.conf:
dns_alt_names = puppet, master.local, puppet.terokarvinen.com
Then remove all of the generated ssl :
rm -rf /var/lib/puppet/ssl
Now restart the puppetmaster via:
# service puppetmaster restart
Change the hostname of 10.0.0.88 to Ubuntu88, 10.0.0.89 to Ubuntu89, and then restart the computer.
Now change the Ubuntu88’s configuration
Add following lines in 10.0.0.88(Server):
In /etc/puppet/puppet.conf, [master] heading:
dns_alt_names = puppet, master.local, puppet.terokarvinen.com
On 10.0.0.89(Client), change the following line in /etc/default/puppet:
START=yes
Then in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf, add following:
[agent]
server = puppet
Restart the puppet service.
Now on server, use following command to list the cert and add signed cert.
Trusty@Ubuntu88:~$ sudo puppet cert --list
sudo: unable to resolve host Ubuntu88
Warning: Setting templatedir is deprecated. See http://links.puppetlabs.com/env-settings-deprecations
(at /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/settings.rb:1095:in `block in issue_deprecations')
"ubuntu89" (SHA256) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Trusty@Ubuntu88:~$ sudo puppet cert --sign ubuntu89
sudo: unable to resolve host Ubuntu88

Create the Site Manifest and a Module
Go to /etc/puppet, run following command:
Trusty@Ubuntu88:/etc/puppet$ sudo mkdir -p manifests/ modules/helloworld/manifests
Edit following file:
Trusty@Ubuntu88:/etc/puppet$ cat manifests/site.pp
include helloworld
Create the file:
Trusty@Ubuntu88:/etc/puppet$ sudo cat modules/helloworld/manifests/init.pp
class helloworld {
file { '/tmp/helloFromMaster':
content => "See you at http://terokarvinen.com/tag/puppet\n"
}
}
And Now in client, restart the puppet service:
Trusty@Ubuntu89:~$ sudo service puppet restart
sudo: unable to resolve host Ubuntu89
[sudo] password for Trusty:
no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory
* Restarting puppet agent [ OK ]
Trusty@Ubuntu89:~$ cat /tmp/helloFromMaster
See you at http://terokarvinen.com/tag/puppet
Now the basic configuration is OK.

TechnologyInstallation
Install lxc, bridge-utils, netctl from the official repository.
$ sudo pacman -S lxc bridge-utils netctl
For creating ArchLinux Container, install arch-install-scripts:
$ sudo pacman -S arch-install-scripts
Check Configurations:
$ lxc-checkconfig
Network Configuration
Since I use systemd for bridged network, so this step remains blank, the official Arch Wiki use netctl.
Creating Container Using Template
List all of the available templates:
$ ls /usr/share/lxc/templates
lxc-alpine lxc-centos lxc-fedora lxc-oracle lxc-ubuntu-cloud
lxc-altlinux lxc-cirros lxc-gentoo lxc-plamo
lxc-archlinux lxc-debian lxc-openmandriva lxc-sshd
lxc-busybox lxc-download lxc-opensuse lxc-ubuntu
Now using the template for creating the Linux Container:
$ sudo lxc-create -n Arch_Container -t /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-archlinux
If the container is created successfully, it will indicates that you could use it from now.
Start the Container
List the installed Containers:
$ sudo lxc-ls
Arch_Container
Start the installed Container:
$ sudo lxc-start -n Arch_Container
The default username is root, and you will got a terminal window, now check the network configuration:
[root@Arch_Container ~]# ip link show dev eth0
5: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Simply use dhcpcd we could get the ip address currently, and surely we can see this network configuration is OK now.
Enable the automatically dhcpcd at startup
$ dhcpcd
$ systemctl enable dhcpcd.service
Now reboot you will notice the ip address has been configurated automatically.
Create Other Distributions
First you should install yum and debootstrap from AUR repository.
$ yaourt -S yum
$ yaourt -S debootstrap
Fedora
Install Fedora or CentOS will failed, I don’t know why.
Debian
Install rxync first via:
pacman -S rsync
Some packages failed to download, so won’t install.
After installed rsync, install debian container via:
sudo lxc-create -n Debian_Container -t /usr/share/lxc/templates/lxc-debian
Start the container via:
sudo lxc-start -n Debian_Container
The default username/password are root, In Debian network is not configured.

TechnologyTips
Here are some tips for customize the existing system.
1. Add octopress directory to heroku repository.
Install heroku client tools:
$ yaourt -S heroku-client
$ heroku keys:add
Found existing public key: /home/Trusty/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Uploading SSH public key /home/Trusty/.ssh/id_rsa.pub... done
Now in the copied octopress directory we could use git push command for pushing our website onto herokuapp.
2. MTP Device
sudo pacman -S libmtp
3. libvirt
sudo pacman -S libvirt
4. virtualbox-ext-oracle
By installing this you can use USB2.0.

Download Virtualbox Guest ISO.
Set Proxy in virtualbox global.
add user “Trusty” to “vboxusers”:
$ gpasswd -a Trusty vboxusers
$ usermod -a -G vboxusers Trusty
Now the virtualbox could use usb. And be sure to run following at suitable place:
$ modprobe vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp
$ modprobe vboxnetflt
$ modprobe vboxnetadp
4. Lumia On ArchLinux
I don’t have good options, but connect it into virtualbox and use it.
Install the corresponding driver. and browser your phone content in Windows 7.
5. lampp adjustment
Since the public directory is not available in my system, so I have to change the default directory from the octopress public to /opt/public.
Then, in Rakefile, add this line:
#######################
# Working with Jekyll #
#######################
desc "Generate jekyll site"
task :generate do
raise "### You haven't set anything up yet. First run `rake install` to set up an Octopress theme." unless File.directory?(source_dir)
puts "## Generating Site with Jekyll"
system "compass compile --css-dir #{source_dir}/stylesheets"
system "jekyll"
# Copy the content to the public directory
system "sudo cp -r /home/Trusty/code/octo/heroku/Tomcat/public /opt"
end
6. gedit
sudo pacman -S gedit
7. Remmina
I use remmina for connecting to my own Surface pro, because it will automatically “shrink” my Desktop for the right resolution. Install it via:

For Surface pro, because it has resolution as 1920x1080,so use toggle mode could get better effects.

Solution is simply to add #include <sys/resource.h> to dalvik/vm/native/dalvik_system_Zygote.cpp.
When you met compatible, install gcc44-multilib:
yaourt -S gcc44-multilib
39. pavucontrol
pavucontrol is A GTK volume control for PulseAudio, install it for redirecting the sound into the bluetooth device.
$ sudo pacman -S pavucontrol

Notice, acroread package only includes in archlinuxfr, so firstly you should add archlinuxfr in your pacman.conf.
49. Konsole
Since the gnome-terminal will be not see input line when you enable the new tabs, I install konsole and use it as default terminal:
$ sudo pacman -S kdebase-konsole
Change the default run command to zsh -l, this will enable the “run as login shell”, then change the default shortcuts, also you should change the default fonts just like we used set in xfce4-terminal/gnome-terminal.
Default font changes:
$ cat ~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile
[Appearance]
ColorScheme=DarkPastels
Font=YaHei Consolas Hybrid,13,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
