Cohuatlicue, the 'Kundalini' of the true Mexicah

Fact is, all support for reiser4 is now purged in Debian Trixie. I had to build from source even libaal: Reiser4's application abstraction library, reiser4progs: Administration utilities for the Reiser4 file system, and even devise a hack for initramfs-tools -- as the official Debian package generated a non-reiser4-compatible initrd.img-, and thus an unbootable reiser4 -based operating system. This latter issue took me a while to zero-in on the offending commit during which time I created a couple of quite dirty hacks just not to delay any further our custom netboot Debian Installer (d-i): Metztli Reiser4.

Needless to say, all the reiser4 sources had to be built with Debian Trixie's GCC14 default compiler; and I encountered several issues which had to be overcome if reiser4 were to be viable under Trixie. In this long journey to reiser4 on Trixie, Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova came along at the rhythm of «Я Хочу Быть Твоим Любовником» : "I Wanna Be Your Lover!" ~ Песня Принца : Prince's song.

WARNING, the instance of an archetype of a beautiful Russian female body visual art requires the user to be old enough -- and male enough in the fascist West, i.e., unperturbed by the Russophobe Zionist Jew Soro's agenda -- and thus be able to appreciate Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova's performance:

I wanted to to integrate the more recent drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89, which provide WiFi 6 support for my device, into the Debian Packaging for 5.17.11-1 which was to be hacked and repurposed for Linux macuilli.caxtolli_omome.caxtolli, i.e., 5.17.15, since during the creation of this post I decided to go for the last 5.17 patch level available at The Linux Kernel Archives.

By the way, this is the last kernel version supported by the current and/or incrementally modified existing reiser4 patch available from the aforementioned SourceForge repository. For kernels 5.18.xy the reiser4 code has to undergo a major rewriting to accommodate the Removal of remaining parts of congestions tracking code:

bdi_write_congested

Thus, I began by upgrading an existing Metztli Reiser4 Amatlocuilin, i.e., Bookworm, Debian partition instance up to the recent release of Trixie. Of course, I hit some snags along the way, for instance the binutils package did not upgrade automatically and my overlooking that fact came back to bite me after I had built and was running the GCC14 build of reiser4 kernel but then tried to install modules of my VirtualBox -- built from source. Apropos, fuck the Zio- cock lover complicit with his ilk's Gaza genocide, Oracle's Larry Ellison, whose policy against those of us who criticize his drama queen, hasbara -puking, scumbag ilk's abhorrent deeds probably had the effect of kicking me out of the VirtualBox mailing list!

Notwithstanding, the kernel build began with routine preparations:

Shell

Create our working totomichin, i.e., 'penguin', kernel build directory;

Shell

Debian did not release a packaging for 5.17.15, accordingly, as in the case of our kernel build for Amatlocuilin, i.e., 'Bookworm', we will be modifying the Debian Packaging for 5.17.11-1 and patching it to target our current kernel 5.17.15 build for Trixie. We begin by cloning the older branch locally:

Shell

a linux directory will be created and we change into its location at our Linux shell:

Shell

We fetch our target kernel with the last patch level in the series to be downloaded one directory above our current location:

Shell

Fetching kernel 5.17.15 and signature

and verify its signature:

Shell

Obviously, since our resources are one directory up from our current shell location, we pass the -r option to ln to create a link which works with the linux kernel string form expected by the Debian packaging:

Shell

we may verify by lsting contents in parent directory.

Prior to engaging in this post, I had placed a couple of links to our reiser4 -enhanced and/or modified Debian Packaging for 5.17.15, i.e., metztli-reiser4-enhancing-debian-packaging-for-GCC14-5.17.15-ihuan-rtw89.patch , which we will be applying subsequently, and our gradual modification of Mr. Shishkin's last reser4 patch, i.e., metztli-reiser4-sfrn4-for-5.17.15-1.patch.gz .

On the first, we can execute head to output the first part of the file:

Reiser4 -enhanced Debian Packaging for 5.17.15

Subsequently, we proceed to apply our reiser4 -enabled Debian packaging for 5.17.15 (download link is at the end of the blog post); first with the --dry-run option:

Shell

then for reals:

Shell

Applying reiser4 -enhanced Debian Packaging patch

Notice the xiuhtzin, i.e., 'blue', hilited entries in the snapshot above. Those are integrated patches for backported rtw89 modules for WiFi 6 -enabled device(s), like the AX16, and the pahole flags required to build the older kernel with GCC12 and GCC14.

If we take a peek at the Debian changelog in the packaging,

Shell

we can see that its version, i.e., 5.17.11, does not match the version of our downloaded kernel, i.e., 5.17.15; accordingly, we ephemerally modify the relevant file with sed:

Shell

(NOTE: Any additional patches we apply, i.e., our reiser4 -hacked patch, must be implemented after the command/directive enumerated as 13, below; otherwise, any patched sources will be overwritten by such command/directive 13.)
as this will enable the Debian Packaging tools to debianize the 5.17.15 source, with:

Shell

debian/rules orig: debianize kernel 5.17.15

Newer Debian scripts cause a couple of errors in the older packaging framework:

dpkg-buildapi: error: cannot read debian/control: No such file or directory
sh: 1: test: Illegal number:
dpkg-buildapi: error: cannot read debian/control: No such file or directory
sh: 1: test: Illegal number:

notwithstanding, those errors appear not to affect the kernel build overall, as seen in the successful completion of the debianization of 5.17.15:

Successful debianization of kernel source tree

Indeed, even our integrated patches into the Debian Packaging framework, hilited in xiuhtzin, applied smoothly. Notice that those hilited patches were first used to patch 5.17.14 yet I reused them because the relevant source in 5.17.15 remained the same. For instance, we can peek at the WiFi 6 -enhanced rtw89 modules hack directory:

Shell

In conclusion, before applying our reiser4 patch to 5.17.15 source, we will now revert back to the original Debian Packaging patch level:

Shell

Subsequently, we will use Debian dch tool to properly increase the kernel patch level. Up to now, we have only reiser4 -enhanced the Debian packaging framework to build reiser4 relevant packages. However, we still need to reiser4 -enhance the kernel 5.17.15 source itself; otherwise, the built kernel will be blind to the reiser4 Software Release Number (SFRN) 4.0.2 file system.

NOTE: while creating this post I sort of backported perf: Remove libcrypto dependency

Shell

Remove perf dependency on libcrypto

due to the fact that ever since Debian Amatlocuilin, i.e., 'Bookworm', I only had one Debian partition which during kernel build could generate perf without being bound to libcrypto. As Trixie came along, I faced the same issue and thus developed the last patch attached. According to debian/rules.d/tools/perf/Makefile, the perf and libcrypto licenses are incompatible and perf bound to libcrypto can not be distributed. I think I finally solved the issue

ldd shows that perf is not bound to libcrypto

because the debian directive:

MAKE_PERF += NO_LIBCRYPTO=1

seemed not to have an effect and perf always was bound to libcrypto, except for that specific Debian partition in older hardware.

Additionally, this perf does not depend on the older libpython3.11 but on current libpython3.13 in Trixie. Apologies if that caused an issue in existing kernel builds out there.

Applying Reiser4, either Software Framework Release Number (SFRN) stable 4.0.2 OR unstable 5.1.3 and, Optionally, Customizing 5.17.15 for AMD Epyc/Ryzen CPUs

Please take a look at the annotations in debian/config/config and debian/config/config.cloud for the differences from the Debian defaults -- besides the obvious addition of the Reiser4 module, of course. If those files are not further modified, our kernel build will be for a tlilxochitl, i.e., 'vanilla', Intel CPU(s).

Shell

debian/rules debian/control

Again, likely because of Debian Trixie newer tools operating on older Debian Packaging for a major kernel version behind, we observe these couple of errors duplicated and hilited in xiuhtzin:

dpkg-buildapi: error: cannot read debian/control: No such file or directory
sh: 1: test: Illegal number:
dpkg-buildapi: error: cannot read debian/control: No such file or directory

yet, reiterating, those errors do not seem to affect the build procedure. Continuing...

debian/rules debian/control normal errors

Conversely, based on multiple previous debianized kernel builds, we know that the last errors are 'normal', i.e.,
...

This target is made to fail intentionally, to make sure
that it is NEVER run during the automated build. Please
ignore the following error, the debian/control file has
been generated SUCCESSFULLY.

exit 1
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:135: debian/control-real] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/mnt/chiucuome/usr/tzinti/build/build-totomichin-5.wx.yz/totomichin-5.17.15/linux'
make: *** [debian/rules:119: debian/control] Error 2

then follow with:

Shell

Now we do test run enhancing the 5.17.15 source tree with our modified reiser4 patch:

Shell

Testing application of reiser4 patch on kernel source

the patch applies smoothly, thus we apply the patch for reals:

Shell

Applying reiser4 patch on kernel source tree

reiser4 patch on kernel src tree done

The next task is to concatenate the string '+reiser4.0.2' to the abi in the file debian/config/defines which will indicate that our reiser4 SFRN 4.0.2 -enabled kernel is a tlilxochitl ['vanilla'] kernel targeted at Intel CPUs. We first peek four(4) lines from the top of the relevant file:

Shell

Then we concatenate the reference string to the kernel ABI (note it is usually a digit but sometimes I have seen string 'trunk':

Shell

We verify by implementing directive 20 above. If we are satisfied, then we will increment the kernel patch level in the debian/changelog to reflect the actual kernel source version we will build by utilizing dch, a Debian tool to modify the debian/changelog via a default text editor. Since after the -D option I am providing the string 'metztli', dch warns that it is not a known Debian distribution. I just press Enter to ignore the warning and continue to edit debian/changelog via the dch interface.

Shell

Use dch to modify kernel patch level in debian/changelog

After we save our modifications, we can peek to verify the dch results reflected in the file debian/changelog ; as shown in the screenshot above, I invoked an Eterm with xvi tiny text editor as: Eterm -g 100x33+0+0 -T "Ангелина Кузнецова as Trixie: $1" -t get-E --exec xvi $1 wrapped in iztaccihuatl custom executable.

Then we can verify that our +reiser4.0.2 char strings concatenations match:

Shell

Proceeding with our next Debian incantation, we note that early errors exhibited during command number 16 above do not occur only, as usual, the couple of 'normal' errors in output stream that we have seen during previous kernel builds:

Shell

debian/rules debian/control no extraneous errors

Lastly, in the ensuing Debian incantation only one error should be expected when the directive finishes:

Shell

For the previous to last debian incantation (observe the red-pointing directive in the ensuing snapshot) you really want to redirect the output and any potential errors, i.e., 2>&1, into a log file to analyze afterwards. It is a fact that if any errors are logged during the make procedure the kernel build will fail:

Shell

fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_amd64_none_amd64

fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_amd64_none_amd64 done

We may carry out some final checks, like verifying that our reiser4 module is selected in the ensuing kernel .config file generated:

Shell

We may pass the option pkg.linux.nokerneldbg build profile that excludes kernel debug bloat; it worked well under Debian Bullseye but I did not notice much, if any, build-bloat difference under Debian Bookworm or Trixie:

Shell

dpkg_buildpackage ... typical kernel build begins

Where X is a placeholder for...

Number of jobs allowed to be run simultaneously, number of jobs matching the number of online processors if auto is specified (since dpkg 1.17.10), or unlimited number if jobs is not specified, equivalent to the make(1) option of the same name (since dpkg 1.14.7, long option since dpkg 1.18.8)...

Yet, towards the end of the kernel build, I hit a couple of separate snags¹ during the older kernel documentation build:

Sphinx parallel build error:
AttributeError: module 'docutils.nodes' has no attribute 'reprunicode'

and

Configuration error:
There is a programmable error in your configuration file:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Eventually -- after patching -- the kernel build will complete,
NOTE: metztli-reiser4-enhancing-debian-packaging-for-GCC14-5.17.15-ihuan-rtw89m.patch supersedes our earlier Debian Packaging patch which fixes the document generating issues just elaborated above. The patch is also attached at the end of this post.
and thus the '-2' to differentiate from the '-1' in the first referenced successful kernel build in an older machine instance upgraded from Bookworm to Trixie. Below is a typical successful kernel build completion output screen:

Typical screen output kernel 5.17.15 build success

'Just for kicks' we will install our newly built linux-perf package:

subsequently, acquiring root privilege -- or as sudo -- test perf² utility:

Shell

and then, adapting test from Debian Packaging for 5.17.11-1, debian/rules.d/tools/perf/Makefile at line number 54, i.e.,

The president has addressed participants at the Russian Energy Week forum in Moscow

The West’s rejection of Russian gas and the US Anglo- Zio Nazi terrorists' destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines effectively cut Moscow off from its traditional customers, leading to an initial drop in gas exports.

• ?The artificial rupturing of energy ties globally is induced by the aggressive pressure from the West
• ?Rejection of Russian energy resources by the EU led to the decline in the European industry and the rise in prices
• ?Russia remains among leading oil producers, despite unfair competition launched against it
• ?️Russia is reliably exporting gas and building up domestic consumption
• ?Russia is the only country having competencies all over the nuclear power sector's chain
• ?Small nuclear power plants are being built by Russia only
• ?The national oil sector is operating sustainably and acts flexibly in the international market
• ?The issue of accessing energy resources goes to the forefront in the world

If you are European American who is currently trying to escape the United States, and calling Mexico your new home, please stay. This one is for you.

There is a deep anger in me that I will try to put into gentle words so that you may understand it. Although I must admit this conversation is going to be difficult.

Dear European Americans, let me be clear, this is not a polite request, this is a reckoning. For generations your people have displaced, dehumanized, and erased mine.

Long before the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, you invaded Mexican territory with violent entitlement. You burned, lynched, and terrorized Mexican people in your pursuit of 'Manifest Destiny'.

1848 US steals half of Mexico's territory: Who is the 'illegal'?

You took half of our territory by force then had the audacity to treat the people you displaced as 'illegals'¹

But instead, you delivered broken promises, racial violence, segregation, more land theft, and systemic exclusion. You lynched Mexicans by the thousands, you banned our language in schools, you denied us access to the institutions built on our very own land.

During the 'Great Depression' millions of Mexicans -- many of whom were US citizens – were 'repatriated' in mass deportations, meant to scapegoat us for your economic failures much like the 'Zio- cock lover small time Hitler wannabe', D̶o̶n̶a̶l̶d̶ Adolf Trump,

Zio- cock lover small time Hitler wannabe holding chair for his genocidal Jew pimp

And, yes, now under the thin skinned fascist bastards in the Trump Administration we are being hunted again: caged, separated from our children, our humanity questioned, our people made into political punching bags so white supremacy can breathe easier.

Zio- Nazi Kristi Noem by South Park's season 27, episode 2

And while this war rages on against my people, many of you – the same ones who voted-in this Zio- Nazi regime, who is terrifying my people, who helped them orchestrate this cruelty -- are fleeing to Mexico, colonizing it again!

You come with your dollars, your airbnb's, your refusal to learn Spanish, your gentrifying process. You are displacing the very people your country is torturing. You inflate rents, drain resources, push out locals, and then demand to be served with the same entitled attitudes that stripped my ancestors off their land.

Do you see the cycle? Or do you just not care? Mexico is not your escape hatch, it is not a healing retreat for you, it is not a consolation prize, we are not your host.

If you truly loved your country, you would stay and fight. You would dismantle the systems that allow you to run when things get uncomfortable while we are forced to stay and suffer. You would resist instead of retreat.

Mexico is for Mexicans. And that is not a slogan. It is a truth born from blood, resistance, and history.

Let my people seek refuge in the land that birthed them. Let us have space to breathe, to heal, to live without the weight of your entitlement crushing us.

Once again. We have carried the burden of your comfort for way too long. Do not ask us to carry it across the border, too.

Again, we are not your host. We are the people who have endured centuries of displacement, violence, and theft. And we are asking you to s̶t̶o̶p̶ FUCK OFF.

Do not come to our land with your privilege and entitlement, acting as if Mexico owes you peace, safety, and hospitality. Let us have our land, our language, and our safety.

Sincerely, a descendant of resistance.

'Huey Tenochtitlan' : «Великий город Теночтитлан» : 'La Gran Tenochtitlan' : 'The Great City of Tenochtitlan' (1945) mural art from the creativity of the 'Mexican' tlacuiloani, i.e., 'painter', Diego Rivera, asymptotic as it may be, yet based on historical narrative(s), we can deduce the ethnic Mexicah peoples -- as opposed to heterogeneity of ethnicities now autodenominating themselves as 'Mexicans' and occupying the Spanish scum lebensraum, renamed as 'Mexico' in 1821 just to provide the entrenched alien Iberian 'Catholic' fanatics, racists, criminals, land thieves, with a fig leaf of legitimacy -- did not fit the narcissist West's image nor their provincial, stunted, worldview.

On the scene of our topic on Rivera's mural art (subsequently zoomed-in below for our elaboration), we can see the cihuatl, i.e., dame or woman, who is selling cihuametzin, nohpalli, ihuan nochtli -- Nahuatl words corrupted into alien European, vulgar Latin -derived Anglo- / Spanish dialects, as 'agave leaves' or 'pencas de maguey', 'cactus leaves' or 'nopales', and 'prickly pear fruit' or 'tunas' -- with her chichihualoa (breasts) quite casually exposed; whereas the chiuatl on the right wears a cotomitl or huipilli, a form of long blouse or tunic, as both tlanamacac (sellers) at the tianquizco -- open air market, spot or place, held periodically at Mexico-Tenochtitlan A∙tepetl -- engage potential customers.

No one at the tianquizco raises a fuss about spurious 'moral values' that subsequent Iberian/Italo/Gallo/Anglo- terrorists European Christian fanatic invaders and their spawn now occupying Ixachitlan, i.e., 'Land Mass Immensity', as the Mexicah knew this continent -- have imposed their alien, racist (i.e., D̶o̶n̶a̶l̶d̶ Adolf Trump and his fascist regime disparage as 'illegals' the destitute victims of US imperialism which implementation is elaborated in the US Anglo- Nazis' so-called 'Monroe Doctrine', formulated in 1823 and in effect since then); even their hypocrite 'Supreme Court' rules in favour of fascist, dehumanizing, prejudices against survivors of their mass (still) ongoing genocide¹ on this continent, which began in 1492 with the invasion by the Islamic...er, Iberian State (IS) terrorists.

Looking at the mural, the scene on the right, lower corner, suggests a Nahuatl agglutinated word:

And even then we can barely apprehend the Ahuiani concept, as embodied by the central figure in the section of Rivera's conception of a typical Mexicah scene, as it has been reduced primarily to bastardized concepts engendered by the hardwired Iberian scum Catholic -tainted extremists mysoginist psychos, like Alonso de Molina, who 'translated' the concept ahuiani as: шлюхa или плохая женщина : whоre or bad woman : putа o mala mujer². All sorts of alien dialects disparaging vulgarities have been employed to describe the Ahuiani concept -- as if the alien Europeans weren't tainted with their uniform provinciality of Christian fanaticism and had, in a moment of epiphany, became aware of the irreducibility of just one of the ancient civilizations they have destroyed!

And to my mind came a phrase by Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova which I can cite and/or paraphrase:

«Выход за рамки приличия ещё не делает вас плохим ч̶е̶л̶о̶в̶е̶к̶о̶м̶ женщиной……
    Так же, как и посещение церкви не делает вас х̶о̶р̶о̶ш̶и̶м̶ святым.»
'Going beyond the bounds of decency does not make you a bad p̶e̶r̶s̶o̶n̶ woman……
    Just like going to church doesn't make you g̶o̶o̶d̶ a saint.'
'El ir mas allá de los limites de la decencia no te hace ser una mala p̶e̶r̶s̶o̶n̶a̶ mujer……
    De igual manera que el ir a la iglesia no te hace ser b̶u̶e̶n̶a̶ santa.'

Of course, if Ангелина could be transported -- somehow -- via a time machine, or the like, into the scene the tlacuiloani Diego Rivera only very imperfectly apprehended and/or conveyed via his mural...yet, 'Strange Things Stayed on My Mind'...

(WARNING, the instance of an archetype of a beautiful female body visual art performance requires the user to be old enough -- and male enough in the fascist West, i.e., unperturbed by the Russophobe Zionist Jew Soro's agenda -- and thus be able to appreciate one of the multiple roles a Mexicah Ahuiani allegedly performed, as embodied by Ангелина Кузнецова : Angelina Kuznetsova:

Ok, So What is So Special About Your 'Half OS'?

I often used to read the paraphrased referenced question being asked in forums about those who revealed were using OS/2. That is why it reminded me of the multiple roles of the Ahuiani in a highly complex society which narcissist outsiders with a penchant for reductionism -- and overflowing with arrogance -- often misunderstood and continue to misunderstand. For instance, there was another class of Ahuiani∙me (plural), represented by the deity Xochiquetzal dressed in Mexicah warriors' military fatigues, and referred to as Maqui:

Xochiquetzal in military attire

These Ahuianime or maqui catered to the Mexicah warriors -- including engaging in battle, and even dying, alongside them. Accordingly, we could advance the argument that cihua∙me (plural for женщины : women : mujeres) of the 'Mexican Revolution' of 1910, predominantly of ethnicity and psychology closer to the now oppressed natives whose land was stolen by the alien Spanish scum for their 'New Spain' lebensraum, and who were referred to as 'soldaderas', i.e., 'soldiers' companions' (roughly), carried on -- consciously or not -- another aspect of the original Mexicah's Ahuianime concept: maqui

1910 manifestation of the Ahuianime maqui

Accordingly, instead of elaborating on OS/2's initial cutting edge usable features, like stability, multitasking, and an object oriented desktop, I will go over an installation overview of a Bootable OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 -- hack that I created -- which includes Multimedia, HPFS386 file system, and finally, the TCP/IP stack.

Many moons ago, I placed a maximum bid of $600.00 on an OS/2 for SMP (supporting up to eight processors) v2.11 which auction term ended at a time when I would not be available to monitor. In subsequent hours, to my dismay, mine had not been the winning bid. I already had, and was using, OS/2 Warp 3 and 4, aka 'Merlin', as well as WSeB, i.e., OS/2 Warp Server for eBusiness, including the Symmetrical Multiprocessor versions. However, there was something alluring in that particular OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 that I was missing. And it was not until I found a CD media set from a company that has since then disappeared, swallowed by a bigger fish, in the Silicon Valley pond. Fascinating, to say the least, one of the CD media had the OS/2 that I had been on a quest for a long time. The included OS/2 was for ome(2) and chiucueyi(8) processors and had a 'fixpak' in a second CD media.

OS/2 for SMP v2.11 2-8 CPUs

Accordingly, it was enough for a first try at installation into my now gone two(2) CPU entry level American Megatrends server. And yes, after replacing a few components in the couple of installation diskettes that were available in certain official repositories, I installed OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 in a dual processor bare metal machine. The server had a supported video card and thus I was able to utilize a greater than 600x480 video resolution. Yet...

The diffences between the single-processor OS/2 and the SMP version are very small: 2 APIs for controlling the CPUs, an extra index for DosQuerySysInfo() and 4 APIs for dealing with spinlocks. I know that the "SMP addendum" mentions a lot of other things, but they are server things, not SMP things.


"OS/2 2.11 SMP" supports up to 16 processors...

³
thus began to experiment in VirtualBox by gradually incrementing virtual CPUs. It was a time consuming process because I had to reinstall from the diskette media while altering certain variables, i.e., proceeding by inductive reasoning. I shelved the experimentation for a while but then I was drawn to the question of whether it would be possible to create a bootable OS/2 2.11. It was not out there, that I was aware. That project took me a while to resolve and in the process I even created an bootable OS/2 2.0 which fonts in the command shell were awful out-of-the-box and I had to improve it by applying first a fixpak and only then I was satisfied with the outcome fonts at the command line.

Having succeeded in creating a bootable OS/2 2.xy then, like a Tlapetlanillotl, i.e., «удар молнии», 'bolt of lightning', 'rayo de luz', the question again suggested itself, is a bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 possible? Achieving that could save me some time! I had never seen the OS/2 v2.xy on chiucueyi(8) processors, much less on caxtolli_omce(16) processors thus, the experiments had to continue!

Drastically Altering the Ome(2)-floppy Boot Procedure to Accommodate HPFS386 File System Support

If you are running your OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 server hacked with HPFS386 file system online and, for whatever reason, you need to perform maintenance operations, your hosting provider likely will not be available just to insert floppies for you. Accordingly, it was better to leave the virtual bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 CDROM media attached when exporting the virtual machine image (VM) and, subsequently, detach it utilizing the virtual tool(s) provided by VirtualBox, for instance. Of course, the VM image manipulation tools are also available with other virtualization solutions, like Red Hat's Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM), if IBM would care to enable the OS/2 to boot from such.

Assuming a pristine virtual hard disk slice was created under VirtualBox, this time I will be locally installing and running the OS/2 for SMP v2.11 in a computing unit with caxtolli_omce(16) cores, i.e., China⁴ -manufactured AceMagic AX16 Pro Ryzen 7, where I -- a priori -- had installed Metztli Reiser4 / Debian 12, aka Amatlocuilin or Bookworm, and built from source the current VirtualBox release:

AceMagic AX16 PRO Ryzen 7

First Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

OS/2 for SMP v2.11 bootable CDROM utilizes CD2BOOT - CD BOOT/2 V1.20; thus we press the Spacebar... to continue booting from the removable media.

CD2BOOT - CD BOOT/2 V1.20

Under the OS/2 colorful rings logo gradually splashing the screen, the Operating System/2 Version 2.1 -- and other IBM notices -- briefly appear which are subsequently replaced by the message Loading, please wait...

Operating System/2 Version 2.1

Once at the OS/2 command shell, we may want to display the contents at our current directory in alphabetical order and to pause the screen until we press the Spacebar to scroll down.

And so on, successively creating Logical partitions -- remember, OS/2 2.xy does not support Logical Volume Manager (LVM) -- until I create the H: partition which symbolically represents HPFS386 file system to be created. Accordingly, from the drop down menu, I select option: Set installable:

After creating OS/2 partition, Set installable

Assign it a New Name for installable partition: OS/2 SMP

Then the OS/2 installer displays the message:

The hard disk partitioning is complete. The System must

during system installation.

Remove the diskette from drive A .

Insert the Installation Diskette in drive A .

Press the Enter key.

Of course, there is no Diskette in drive A as drive A is being emulated by CD2BOOT. Thus, in VirtualBox I press Ctrl and Delete to reboot the system.

Hard disk partitioning is complete

Second Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

Well, we repeat the same procedure as above, except that when we type the command ome(2) reprinted below for reference:

Shell

Accept the drive

From the OS/2 Installer's Select the File System ensuing options I accept the already hilited entry 1. High Performance File System (please, note this is not the HPFS386 file system, yet :

Select the file system

Upon pressing Enter, or H (hilited option letter), Installing Operating System/2 header notice is displayed, as well as Please wait while the installation partition is formatted...

installation partition is being formatted

Immediately after the virtual hard disk installation slice is formatted, the OS/2 PACKed system files are unPACKed to the freshly HPFS -formatted partition slice. Snapshot below shows the OS/2 Installer operating on our chingon, i.e., badass, OS/2 2.11 kernel for SMP supporting up to caxtolli_omce(16) processors/cores.

OS2KRNLi supporting up to caxtolli_omce(16) CPUs/COREs

After the first half of the OS/2 installation is complete, the Installer will now display the greeting: Welcome to OS/2 (please note, this is the second instance ); therefore, do not Press Enter to continue,

Welcome to OS/2

instead, press Esc to cancel. We will be taken behind the OS/2 Installer's screen, at the CMD shell performing the installation routine. More specifically Operating System/2 Command Interpreter Version 2.1, at location
[CDROM drive letter:\OS2\DISK_1]

Esc to Command Interpreter Version 2.1

We can view a list of files the Installer has unPACKed at relevant directory locations -- out of curiosity, of course; for instance, we can view the OS/2 Platform Specific Driver (PSD), which provides an abstraction layer for the underlying virtualized hardware.

Shell

DIR H

To analyze OS/2's intermediate CONFIG.SYS at drive H:, we can invoke the Tiny EDITor (TEDIT) located in our ome(2) -floppy diskette image integrated into our bootable CDROM media and whole assembly emulated as drive A: as

Shell

A⁑TEDIT H⁑CONFIG.SYS

And the matlactic, i.e., 'blue', -background editor is displayed, ready for command; press Esc to toggle cursor location.

TEDIT displaying CONFIG.SYS

The prior exercises, of course, are for informational purposes. However, the principal reason for invoking the Operating System/2 Command Interpreter Version 2.1 is to type essential custom installation command:

Shell

Source drive custom CDINST.CMD onto target drive

No errors should occur. We are done with this task

As in previous occasion, in VirtualBox I press the Host key (in my case, right Ctrl) and Delete to reboot the system.

Third Phase of OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Installation

Given the fact that a partial installation was already written onto the virtual hard disk slice by the OS/2 Installer routine, we do not need to press the Spacebar to boot from the bootable CDROM this time. Instead we allow the CD2Boot utility count mechanism to gradually decrease to ahtleh, i.e., 'zero', so that the OS/2 Installer routine will start from the virtual hard disk slice which, of course, will be the OS/2 Boot Manager. The OS/2 SMP entry is already hilited -- as it is the only bootable system added to the OS/2 Boot Manager:

OS/2 Boot Manager

Pressing Enter or allowing the counter to gradually decrease to reach ahtleh, will begin to load the OS/2 Installer behind the OS/2 rings splash screen:

OS/2 Installer splash continue installation

At the OS/2 Setup and Installation dialog we check the radio button Install all features (28M; press Ok button.

Install all features (28MB)

On the ensuing System Configuration screen, we leave the defaults and press Ok button.

OS/2 System Configuration dialog

Upon that event completion, Select Printer(s) dialog will pop up. Unless we have a printer supported by any of the drivers listed, we might leave default hilited entry Do Not Install Default Printer:; press Ok button.

Select Printer(s)

OS/2 Installer routine then goes back to System Configuration dialog where we, again, press Ok button.

OS/2 System Configuration defaults

At this point a smaller OS/2 Setup and Installation rectangular dialog ensues informing us You are about to begin the installation of your selected configuration. Press Ok button.

Begin installation of selected configuration

A gradually progressing black bar adorned with OS/2 rings is displayed by the OS/2 Installer as it is Transfering files to your hard disk.

Transfering files to your hard disk

I uncheck box Migrate Applications (lest Adolf Trump's regime criminalizes them, as well) on the ensuing Advanced Options dialog as there was no previous operating system -- only leaving default check box Configure Win-OS/2 Desktop. Press Ok button.

Configure Win-OS/2 Desktop

Install standard Win-OS/2 desktop dialog radio button is selected by default; press Ok button to continue:

Win-OS/2 Desktop Configuration

The Advanced Options dialog reappears and, unless we have an Install Device Support Diskette containing OS/2 2.11 third-party drivers, we press Ok button to continue:

No Install Device Support Diskette

OS/2 Installer proceeds to install the IBM OS/2 null print driver as well as relevant Win-OS/2 drivers...

Installing IBM null print driver

and installs the IBM OS/2 display drivers and relevant Win-OS/2 drivers, too:

Installing IBM display drivers

And this completes our bootable OS/2 for SMP v2.11 CDROM/ISO media graphical installation overview!

OS/2 Setup and Installation is Complete

When the dialog prompts us to Remove the diskette from drive A, we need to remove the virtual CDROM -- which CD2BOOT has emulated as a diskette or floppy and which our legendary OS/2 thinks is drive A ; otherwise, pressing Ok button to continue will have no effect in rebooting our newly installed Operating System/2.

OS/2 for SMP Version 2.11 Very First Boot

After booting OS/2 for the first time, a tutorial will offer guidance. Take it if you are new to OS/2 v2.11. Otherwise, after exploring the object oriented Desktop, you will realize the CDROM object is missing. Additionally, although the running OS2KRNL is Symmetrical Multiprocessing (SMP) -aware, OS/2 is running on only one CPU/CORE, as it has just been installed and this is its first boot. Thus, we must enable the CDROM device and enable the SMP feature typing at a command prompt:

Shell

CDADDCFG.CMD️ ⁑ CDROM and SMP

The procedure should complete with no errors. Now we can type at our command prompt:

Shell

We make sure to select the VirtualBox radio button Power off the machine.

VirtualBox⁑ Power off the machine

From the VirtuaBox control dashboard list, we select System, then the Processor tab, and increase the CPU/CORE count to caxtolli_omce(16) and select/'press' the Ok button.

System -> Processor = 16

After we restart OS/2 for SMP v2.11 we can see Processors Initialized: 16

Processors Initialized⁑ 16

HPFS386 is a ring 0 driver (allowing direct hardware access and direct interaction with the kernel) with built-in SMB networking properties that are usable by various server daemons, whereas HPFS is a ring 3 driver. Thus, HPFS386 is faster than HPFS and highly optimized for server applications. It is also highly tunable by experienced administrators.

In order to not only support (= not crash under) SMP, but use SMP you have to use threads. SMP works best when the threads do not have to communicate a lot.

The program has some work to do (a billion things to be exact). First the number of processors is detected. Then the main thread creates an equal number of threads and assigns them a piece of the work. Then the main thread waits for the threads to finish.

The importation of fascism by the 'Zio- cock lover small time Hitler wannabe,' Adolf Trump, from his shithole nest in Germany where the alien spawn who gave birth to him originated, and which manifestation has now engendered masked terrorists thugs targetting those whose native DNA belongs without doubt rooted in this continent. There was a dissenting voice, though:

“The Fourth Amendment protects every individual’s constitutional right to be ‘free from arbitrary interference by law officers,’” she wrote, quoting a 1975 case that said it was unconstitutional for the Border Patrol to stop a car and question its occupants when the only ground for suspicion was that they appeared to be of Mexican ancestry.

“After today, that may no longer be true for those who happen to look a certain way, speak a certain way and appear to work a certain type of legitimate job that pays very little,” Justice Sotomayor continued. “Because this is unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation’s constitutional guarantees, I dissent.”

At the same time, Europe's ugly, dark, genocidal history repeats itself. In a parallel development in the so-called Middle East, terrorists, psychopathic 'Вible' fanatics Zionist evil Jews are mercilessly, under their typical 'Holohoax' victim-role-playing hasbara regurgitated ad nauseam by the West's mainstream media and political whores, annihilating the most vulnerable humans in Gaza, the women and little kids, boys and girls who, if surviving, will be left physically and psychologically scarred, handicapped, for the rest of their lives. The unlucky ones will die still in their mothers' wombs. All with the complicity of the US Anglo- Zio- Nazis who provide the weapons their genocidal Zionists evil terrorists Jews ilk are using...

Zionists evil Jews war against the innocent unborn in Gaza

I am not sorry for sharing this photo.

They rip life from the womb, US-made bombs dropped by Israeli terrorists tearing unborn children from their mothers’ embrace before their first breath in Gaza

The vivid embodiment of Hitler, the Zionist Jew monster, Netanyahu, and his fascist evil regime's systematic destruction of Gaza hospitals, extreme water rationing, the offering of a meager rationing of food as bait to attract hunger-striken Palestinians and then to shoot and bоmb at them indiscriminately as they approach, introduction of starvation as a weapon to induce malnutrition in the affected generation(s) and subsequent diseases which result due to immune system collapse, is a de facto ethnic cleansing operation not unlike what the US Anglo- Nazis 'founding fathers' did to the Anishinaabeg, i.e., 'Native Americans', to steal their land for the lebensraum they now call 'America':

'Sorry. You are living on stolen land' ~ Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine.

AND THE WINNER, AS USUAL, IS CHINA

The collective West sanction tsunami against Russia handed over to Chinese manufacturers a market of 150 million people on a plate.

Now, the Talmudic terror pager op in Lebanon has given Chinese manufacturers maximum priority across a market of nearly TWO BILLION Muslims.

With enemies like these, China does not even need friends.

The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is held on June 18-21. The 28th edition of the forum is themed "Shared Values: The Foundation of Growth in a Multipolar World."

Sputnik Africa is live as Russian President Vladimir Putin is taking part in the plenary session of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF).

The following high-level attendees are also taking part in the plenary session:

⇒ Indonesia's President Prabowo Subianto,
⇒ China's Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang,
⇒ South Africa's Vice President Paul Mashatile,
⇒ Bahrein's National Security Advisor and Commander of the Royal Guard Sheikh Nasser bin Hamad al Khalifa.

The Russian top official is expected to assess the state of Russia's relations with a number of key foreign partners and the international situation affecting Russia's economy, according to the Kremlin.

Putin has already touched upon global issues during SPIEF 2025. In the early hours of Thursday, he met with international news agencies' heads and addressed topics including the Middle East, NATO's military upgrades, the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict, relations with the US and other partner countries.

Burkina Faso’s President Ibrahim Traoré called for carrying forward the legacy of the anti-imperialist and anti-colonial struggle during and after World War II. Traoré is in Moscow as a guest at the 80th-anniversary parade celebrating the victory over fascism ending WWII.

'It’s not terrorism. It’s imperialism.' – Burkina Faso’s President Ibrahim Traoré slammed French media for waging an ideological war to sustain colonial domination. Propaganda, he argued, like arms, is part of the Western arsenal—used to manufacture war and justify foreign control.

Traoré points to foreign instructors, drone specialists, and explosives teams in mining zones. 'Their objective is to keep us in a state of permanent war, stop development, and continue to exploit our resources.'

His remarks come amid a regional rupture in the postcolonial order. Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger have expelled French forces, withdrawn from ECOWAS, and formed the Alliance of Sahel States, i.e., Alliance des États du Sahel, (AES)—a bloc built on military cooperation and rejection of French influence.
