Setup

We have uploaded a ready to use image, that you can simply import and start using.

Login to DigitalOcean
Look for “Images” in the sidebar and select “Custom Images”
Import via Url: https://temp.pantherx.org/px-server-os_do-image_v0.0.1.qcow2

At this point you should be able to create a new Droplet in the same region and select the image.

ssh panther@enter_your_droplet_ip_address
# password: pantherx

You should change the password immediately.

Generate your own image

(use-modules (gnu)
             (px system config))

(px-server-os
 (operating-system
  (host-name "do-image")
  (timezone "Europe/Berlin")
  (locale "en_US.utf8")

  (initrd-modules (cons* "virtio_scsi"
                         %base-initrd-modules))

  (bootloader (bootloader-configuration
               (bootloader grub-bootloader)
               (targets (list "/dev/vda"))))

  (file-systems (cons (file-system
                       (device "/dev/vda1")
                       (mount-point "/")
                       (type "ext4"))
                      %base-file-systems))

  (swap-devices (list (swap-space (target "/swapfile"))))

  (users (cons* (user-account
                 (name "panther")
                 (comment "default user")
                 (password (crypt "pantherx" "$6$abc"))
                 (group "users")
                 (supplementary-groups '("wheel"))
                 (home-directory "/home/panther"))
                %base-user-accounts)))
 #:open-ports '(("tcp" "ssh" "80" "443")))

Build with:

guix system image --save-provenance --image-size=5G --image-type=qcow2 do-generic-image.scm

Next Steps

You can use above configuration to create a /etc/system.scm
