–ssl-cert-dir <dir>
Use certificates to trust for ssl/https connections from <dir>, by default the certificates in
/etc/ssl/certs/ are used.
These certificates are based on the debian ca-certificates package. This package includes PEM files of CA
certificates to allow SSL-based applications to check for the authenticity of SSL connections. It includes, among
others, certificate authorities used by the Debian infrastructure and those shipped with Mozilla’s browsers.
Note:
Neither Garz & Fricke nor Debian can neither confirm nor deny whether the certificate authorities
whose certificates are included in this package have in any way been audited for trustworthiness or
RFC 3647 compliance. Full responsibility to assess them belongs to the local system administrator.
For custom web applications it may be useful to create a custom certificates folder containing the own certificate.
4.2.7 Boot progress animation
Garz & Fricke systems shipped with displays or HDMI controllers show a progress bar on system start up. Besides
the utilization of the default progress bar, there is a possibility to customize following parameters of it:
The position
The appearance (with custom PNG images)
Example 1
shows how to configure the parameters of the progress bar:
To configure the progress bar, a configuration file needs to be created:
root@santaro:~# touch /etc/progress_bar.conf
Calling
root@santaro:~# nano /etc/progress_bar.conf
will bring up the editor.
Note that there is an example configuration file in:
/etc/progress_bar.conf.example
This can be renamed and used as reference.
The configuration file needs to have a similar form to this:
progress_bar_pos_x="100"
progress_bar_pos_y="300"
progress_bar_empty_img="/usr/share/images/progress_bar_empty.png"
progress_bar_full_img="/usr/share/images/progress_bar_full.png"
The parameters
progress_bar_pos_x
and
progress_bar_pos_y
are used to configure the position of the
progress bar. They contain the x and y position of the progress bar’s left top corner in pixels.
The parameters
progress_bar_full_img
and
progress_bar_empty_img
are used to configure the appearance
of the progress bar. They contain the full path to the PNG images for the empty and the full bar.
It’s also possible to configure only the position or only the appearance of the progress bar.
During the boot process, the image of the empty bar will be gradually overwritten with the image of the full bar.
Both pictures should have the same height and width.
We provide example images with the above file names as reference in the image.
Example 2
shows examples of custom progress bar images:
