Chromium Browser on Sculpt OS?
by Lonnie Cumberland 07 Apr '25

07 Apr '25

Hi All, Hope that everyone is doing well today. Been away from Genode for a while but am making it back around and am exploring Sculpt OS a bit. I was able to boot it up on an Intel NUC7 with no problems and was interested to try and find out if it can run Chromium web browser? In particular, I am interested in exploring the possibility of setting up a Sculpt OS based kiosk in fullscreen mode at boot time running Chromium browser. To test this, I wanted to try and find out how to boot it up on Sculpt. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheersand have a great day, Lonnie

Extending the VFS with hard-links
by Rumen Mitov 03 Apr '25

03 Apr '25

Hello, I need some help with extending the VFS for my project. I need hardlink support, so I added the following to repos/os/include/vfs/directory_service.h's Directory_service struct: virtual int hardlink(char const *path, char const *hardlink_path) { (void) path; (void)hardlink_path; Genode::error("not implemented!"); return 0; } I have the Lwext4 plugin (https://codeberg.org/jws/genode-wundertuete/src/branch/import-lwext4_from_w…) setup for my project so I then extended repos/wundertuete/src/lib/vfs/lwext4/vfs.cc's Lwext4_vfs_file_system struct: int hardlink(char const *path, char const *hardlink_path) override { return ext4_flink(path, hardlink_path); } The problem is that hardlink uses the default implementation in my main code: squidutils->_vfs_env.root_dir().hardlink(p2.string(), p1.string()); // Prints 'not implemented' From what I have read online the issue is that squidutils->_vfs_env.root_dir() is of type Directory_service, whereas I need it to be Lwext4_vfs_file_system. However, Lwext4_vfs_file_system is declared in the vfs.cc file above as opposed to being declared in a header. Is there a way to use Lwext4_vfs_file_system without copying the entire source of Lwext4 into my project's source code? Or am I perhaps going in the wrong direction with all of this? Best, Rumen
