WEBVTT 00:05.420 --> 00:09.830 So in the last video, we learned how the bootstrappers environment works and now we're going to learn 00:09.830 --> 00:12.080 how to create our own bootstrappers environment. 00:12.470 --> 00:16.250 So to do that, we need to download the bootstrappers program. 00:16.250 --> 00:19.920 And when you download it, you're going to get a directory that looks like this. 00:20.570 --> 00:27.500 And so what we have here is we have a make dmg shell script, and that's what makes the bootstrappers 00:27.500 --> 00:28.220 disk image. 00:28.580 --> 00:35.930 Now, the bootstrappers disk image is the image that we copied in our demo to the monkey server, and 00:35.930 --> 00:39.720 that's the image that we mounted when we were in recovery. 00:40.700 --> 00:41.120 All right. 00:41.130 --> 00:45.080 So you can see that there's also a directory called Bootstrap. 00:45.170 --> 00:51.410 And if we go into that directory and take a listing, you can see that we have an alias called Run that 00:51.410 --> 00:53.420 runs the bootstrappers shell script. 00:53.840 --> 00:58.850 And that script is what basically runs the packages in the package folder. 00:59.420 --> 00:59.840 All right. 00:59.840 --> 01:07.850 So let's go to the packages folder and inside the packages folder, we have a list of packages and scripts 01:08.120 --> 01:10.010 that are going to run in alphabetical order. 01:10.850 --> 01:15.140 Now, I went ahead and numbered mine in the order I want to go in. 01:15.380 --> 01:21.980 And when a system runs things in alphabetical order and you rename them numerically like I have, then 01:21.980 --> 01:24.830 it will basically run in numerical order. 01:24.980 --> 01:29.360 The first thing that this does is it runs a script called Rename. 01:29.570 --> 01:31.700 And now this is a script that I wrote. 01:31.760 --> 01:37.190 Basically what it does is it renames the computer, but it does it, I think, in a kind of a unique 01:37.190 --> 01:37.530 way. 01:38.030 --> 01:43.570 So what we're going to do is we're going to ask the user to enter a computer name and then assign it 01:43.580 --> 01:45.000 the variable new name. 01:45.290 --> 01:51.140 Now, how it actually names the computer, because remember, we are booted in recovery mode. 01:51.140 --> 01:54.590 We're not booted from the hard disk that we're going to be using in production. 01:54.590 --> 02:00.230 And that's why we're going to do what's called a TERU now, which basically logs you in. 02:00.380 --> 02:03.420 So you're using a different file system. 02:03.740 --> 02:10.320 So what we're doing is we're going to take root as user root to the Macintosh hard drive volume. 02:10.730 --> 02:17.630 Now, when this whole procedure is done and we reboot the computer, we're booting from the Macintosh 02:17.630 --> 02:18.680 hard drive volume. 02:18.830 --> 02:24.830 But the commands that we run in the Chubut environment are going to affect that Macintosh hard drive 02:24.830 --> 02:25.240 volume. 02:25.520 --> 02:31.880 So as you can see, we're going to be running a command studio set computer named Variable. 02:32.150 --> 02:37.970 We're going to be executing that command onto the Macintosh hard drive, not the hard drive from the 02:37.970 --> 02:41.630 computer in which we're booted, which is the recovery partition. 02:42.110 --> 02:46.310 So we're going to set all three computer names to our new name, variable. 02:46.520 --> 02:49.430 And then the last line just prints that variable out. 02:51.110 --> 02:57.440 All right, so the next thing that we do is we installed the Monkey Tools package, and this is the 02:57.440 --> 02:59.770 package that you can download from the Monkey website. 02:59.780 --> 03:05.150 It's the same one we've used to install Monkey on our admin machine and our client machine. 03:05.660 --> 03:11.410 And then the next package, it gets installed as Monkey Kickstart, also available from the Monkey website. 03:11.690 --> 03:16.150 And this is what puts the computer in monkey bootstrap mode, which we talked about earlier. 03:17.230 --> 03:22.630 Now, the fourth package, Skip Apple, set up assistant, that's a package that I downloaded from the 03:22.630 --> 03:27.540 Internet that's designed to skip the prompts when a user logs in for the first time. 03:28.530 --> 03:31.410 And then create administrator package. 03:31.590 --> 03:38.500 This is a package that will create that creates the first user account on the system and our demo case 03:38.580 --> 03:41.360 administrator and it assigns it a password. 03:41.700 --> 03:47.950 And how this package was created was using a program called P, why create a user package? 03:49.230 --> 03:55.560 Now, when you download this program, you get a folder that looks like this and basically you're just 03:55.560 --> 03:58.490 going to be running the create user package program. 03:58.860 --> 04:05.940 And when you do that without any arguments, then you get a list of available options. 04:06.390 --> 04:12.360 So what we're going to do is we're going to create user package and then we're going to go hyphen and 04:12.360 --> 04:16.200 for administrator and then hyphen you for you. 04:16.320 --> 04:19.920 And we're going to use the UID of five, one in five. 04:20.020 --> 04:26.790 One is the other that gets assigned to whatever account you create when you run the apple set up system, 04:26.790 --> 04:28.520 when you take the computer out of the box. 04:28.830 --> 04:32.730 So our packages are going to basically recreate that process. 04:33.250 --> 04:38.100 Then we're going to do hyphen B for version number and that's going to be the version of this package. 04:38.100 --> 04:44.760 If you upgrade this package in the future, then you can just upgrade the version number and then we're 04:44.760 --> 04:52.470 going to need a unique identifier and we're going to just call it a automata administrator. 04:53.310 --> 04:58.360 And now we need to enter a password and so we can just type our password in. 04:58.410 --> 05:02.190 Then there's some other options that you can enter, such as a full name. 05:03.030 --> 05:07.020 And so the last option that I'm going to pick is hyphen a four Adnen. 05:07.020 --> 05:10.620 So this is going to make this account an administrator account. 05:10.950 --> 05:14.910 And then the last thing you need to do is give it a file name. 05:14.910 --> 05:22.890 So we're going to go ahead and say create admin that package and then it's going to go ahead and create 05:23.070 --> 05:24.030 a package file. 05:24.330 --> 05:29.850 So if I do a listing, you can see I've got to create an ID package now and we need what we need to 05:29.850 --> 05:37.080 do is basically take this package file and copy it to the packages folder in our bootstrap directory. 05:37.940 --> 05:43.730 All right, so with the administrator account created, then the next thing that I'm running is another 05:43.730 --> 05:49.550 script that I wrote, and this is the script that asks the user for the name in the manifest they wanted 05:49.550 --> 05:50.090 to use. 05:51.890 --> 06:00.470 So the there's a note in here basically that says to run this command and the Manifest Util Command 06:00.470 --> 06:06.920 is a command from monkey tools and what it does is it it lists the manifest. 06:06.920 --> 06:13.430 And I'm going to take that listing and I'm going to write it to a file on our monkey server. 06:14.310 --> 06:20.100 Now, if I go ahead and take a look at that file in its current state. 06:22.960 --> 06:25.420 Then you will see that I have. 06:26.400 --> 06:33.660 Two manifests that are in my monkey server now, if I go ahead and create a new manifest. 06:37.280 --> 06:38.450 And I say that. 06:39.370 --> 06:41.230 And then I run this command. 06:43.560 --> 06:50.400 And now I take a look at that file again, you can see that I've now I've got the three manifests that 06:50.430 --> 06:51.440 are in Monkey. 06:52.020 --> 06:52.400 All right. 06:52.410 --> 06:59.730 Now, if you remember when we ran bootstrappers, it also offered us a couple more manifest names. 06:59.730 --> 07:01.850 And we'll go ahead and get to that in a moment. 07:02.310 --> 07:08.850 So as you can see on this line over here, we're downloading that file, but we're writing it to the 07:08.850 --> 07:12.120 Macintosh hard drive volume in a temp folder. 07:13.750 --> 07:22.210 And then over here, what we're going to do is we're going to assign a variable new name to our computers 07:22.210 --> 07:24.940 computer name, but remember, the computer name isn't. 07:26.070 --> 07:31.470 On the computer we're booting from it's we said it to the volume in which we're going to be booting 07:31.470 --> 07:33.610 to after bootstrappers done. 07:33.840 --> 07:36.270 So, again, I have to use that cheroot command. 07:36.570 --> 07:39.510 And then what we're going to do here is we're going to write that variable. 07:39.510 --> 07:45.720 So the computer running from the cheroot environment and we're adding it to the list of the monkey manifest 07:45.720 --> 07:48.780 file that we downloaded from our monkey server. 07:49.170 --> 07:51.180 And we're going to do the exact same thing. 07:51.180 --> 07:57.150 But for the serial number and that's how we got all of those options in the monkey manifest. 07:57.930 --> 07:58.460 All right. 07:58.470 --> 08:07.230 So this part, this code over here, this basically asks the user which monkey manifest that they want 08:07.230 --> 08:12.540 to use and then it gives them the options from the file and it waits for input. 08:12.900 --> 08:19.620 And then once it gets input, it will write the right manifest that you choose to the manifest file. 08:20.280 --> 08:25.950 So over here, the last bit of code, this is where we're writing the manifest preference or this is 08:25.950 --> 08:28.010 where we're writing the monkey preference file. 08:28.560 --> 08:34.890 So we're going to route into the Macintosh hard drive and we're going to use the default rights command 08:34.890 --> 08:37.710 that we used when we learned about installing monkey earlier. 08:37.920 --> 08:43.260 And we're going to sign it a monkey repo and we're going to sign it and manifest and we're going to 08:43.260 --> 08:45.170 suppress the user notification. 08:45.690 --> 08:52.470 And then when everything is done, we're going to erase that monkey manifest list file from the computer. 08:55.330 --> 09:00.670 All right, so when that's done, then here's a script that another script I found on the Internet, 09:00.670 --> 09:06.490 and this suppresses the question that new user gets asked about sending diagnostics to Apple. 09:06.940 --> 09:12.850 Now, I had to change the script so it would write all of this stuff to the Macintosh hard drive. 09:12.850 --> 09:15.340 So I had to do it in the cheroot environment. 09:18.310 --> 09:26.260 Now, a lot of these things could be just done in Monkey, so the renamed script actually has to be 09:26.260 --> 09:32.920 done in bootstrappers, installing monkey tools and Monkey Kickstart has to be done in bootstrap or 09:33.490 --> 09:42.160 this skipping the apple setup assistant and the administrator package could be done in just in monkey 09:42.160 --> 09:45.190 itself and the supressed diagnostics. 09:45.190 --> 09:48.860 Also, that script could be run from monkey by itself. 09:49.180 --> 09:56.320 Now choosing the monkey manifest and writing the preference file for Monkey itself does have to be done 09:56.320 --> 09:57.140 in bootstrappers. 09:57.460 --> 10:03.820 Now, if you don't if you want these other packages to be in your monkey environment, you could pull 10:03.820 --> 10:05.340 them out of the strapper. 10:05.590 --> 10:12.150 But when you build your bootstrap environment, just think about what actually has to be run in bootstrappers, 10:12.160 --> 10:14.050 in what can be run and monkey. 10:14.740 --> 10:15.150 All right. 10:15.160 --> 10:20.140 So now that we have everything that we want in our bootstrappers environment, we need to build the 10:20.140 --> 10:21.950 disk image for bootstrappers. 10:22.540 --> 10:29.320 So what we're going to do is we're going to get out of this directory and get back to the bootstrap 10:29.320 --> 10:32.950 our master home directory where the shelf script is. 10:33.250 --> 10:39.640 And then we're just going to go ahead and run the Shell script and it's going to generate a bootstrap 10:39.940 --> 10:40.980 DMG file. 10:41.350 --> 10:47.320 And now that bootstrap that DMG file, we just need to copy to a Web server someplace. 10:47.320 --> 10:48.610 And you saw my demo. 10:48.610 --> 10:51.850 I copied it to our monkey server. 10:52.180 --> 10:56.950 And so then when whoever is going to be setting up the computer, they can take the computer out of 10:56.950 --> 11:04.360 the box, go to recovery, they can go right to the terminal and then do HDI util attach and then the 11:04.360 --> 11:09.310 path to this bootstrap dmg and then run the run command. 11:09.640 --> 11:15.730 And however your environment is set up, it will prompt the user if there's any prompts or it will just 11:15.730 --> 11:16.960 install packages. 11:17.140 --> 11:23.230 And then once it's reboot, then the computer will reboot and do whatever it is that monkey tells it 11:23.230 --> 11:23.650 to do.
