== Hardened Lunar Linux ==
 
  
The maingoal of this project might be to have a Lunar Linux with security enhancements. The most modules will be patched with patches we've written or others written. Others could be Linux-from-Scratch users or other Distributions. As long as we keep credits - This should be okay.
 
 
== Language ==
 
 
The mainproblem is my language - so if you read things you don't understand please ask me - My english isn't as good as yours so probably i would be happy for corrections ;-)
 
 
== Warning ==
 
 
This project is in an experimental state - So use it only if you want to play with it or if you want help developing it. It's not for production use right now.
 
 
== HowTo get this Thingy running ==
 
 
 
Good question, i waited that u ask me. First, you'll download the hd-modules.tar.bz2 (I will add the url here soon). Extract it to /var/lib/lunar/moonbase/zlocal/ (Be careful if you stored own modules there. We don't want to overwrite something). Then you have to re-lin stuff:
 
 
 
'''Stage One'''
 
 
Preinstallation of needed modules
 
 
* lin -cr binutils # This will install binutils 2.17 with our hardened patches and configure options
 
* lin -cr gcc # This will install gcc 4.1.2 with our hardened patches and configure options
 
* lin -cr kernel-headers-2.6 # This will install the Kernel Headers we need for glibc
 
* lin -cr glibc # This will install glibc 2.5 with our hardened patches and configure options
 
* lin -cr linux-2.6 # Now reinstall the linux kernel.
 
 
'''Stage Two'''
 
 
Now reinstallation of the previosly installed modules, so that they're compiled using the preinstalled modules
 
 
* lin -cr binutils
 
* lin -cr gcc
 
* lin -cr db (if u have it installed (lvu installed db) but i bet you have)
 
* lin -cr coreutils
 
* lin -cr kernel-headers-2.6
 
* lin -cr glibc
 
* lin -cr linux-2.6
 
 
'''Stage Three'''
 
 
Now we relin some other useful modules:
 
* lin -cr bison
 
* lin -cr procps
 
* lin -cr libtool
 
* lin -cr perl
 
* lin -cr readline
 
* lin -cr zlib
 
* lin -cr autoconf
 
* lin -cr automake
 
 
Now your filesystem tools:
 
 
* lin -cr e2fsprogs (for ext2 and ext3fs)
 
* lin -cr xfsprogs (for xfs only if u use it)
 
* lin -cr jfsutils (for jfs only if u use it)
 
* lin -cr reiserfsprogs (for reiserfs only if u use it)
 
* ... ;-)
 
 
Now some other modules
 
* lin -cr file
 
* lin -cr flex
 
* lin -cr groff
 
* lin -cr less
 
* lin -cr man
 
* lin -cr mktemp
 
* lin -cr module-init-tools
 
* lin -cr psmisc
 
* lin -cr shadow
 
* lin -cr sysvinit
 
* lin -cr udev (or whatever u use, for example devfs)
 
* lin -cr ncurses (if u have it installed (lvu installed ncurses))
 
* lin -cr bash
 
* lin -cr bzip2
 
* lin -cr coreutils
 
* lin -cr diffutils
 
* lin -cr findutils
 
* lin -cr gawk
 
* lin -cr gettext
 
* lin -cr grep
 
* lin -cr gzip
 
* lin -cr m4
 
* lin -cr make
 
* lin -cr patch
 
* lin -cr perl
 
* lin -cr sed
 
* lin -cr tar
 
* lin -cr texinfo (if u have it installed (lvu installed texinfo))
 
* lin -cr util-linux
 
* lin -cr vim
 
 
== The Patches ==
 
 
You will see "Status:" in the following sections. Status 1 means i tested is it compiling and does it seem working, on my local system (Athlon XP 2600+, 512 MB Ram, Vanilla 2.6.20 Kernel). Status 2 means i tested it a bit more and recompiled it several times. Status 3 means other people have tested it, too but it wasn't working sometimes. Status 4 means other people have tested it, too and it was working everywhere.
 
 
So:
 
 
* Status 0 is untested.
 
* Status 1 is really really alpha. (tested without optimizations)
 
* Status 2, too. (tested with optimizations: CPU: athlon-xp; FPU: both; MMX SSE SSE2, -O2)
 
* Status 3 is beta.
 
* Status 4 is ready to go ;-)
