initial import
The original osmo-gsm-tester was an internal development at sysmocom, mostly by
D. Laszlo Sitzer <dlsitzer@sysmocom.de>, of which this public osmo-gsm-tester
is a refactoring / rewrite.
This imports an early state of the refactoring and is not functional yet. Bits
from the earlier osmo-gsm-tester will be added as needed. The earlier commit
history is not imported.

+SETTING UP sysmobts
+
+PACKAGE VERSIONS
+
+Depending on the code to be tested, select the stable, testing or nightly opkg
+feed:
+
+To change the feed and packages installed on the sysmobts edit the
+following files in /etc/opkg/
+
+* all-feed.conf
+* armv5te-feed.conf
+* sysmobts-v2-feed.conf
+
+and adjust the URL. For example, to move to the testing feeds:
+
+ sed -i 's/201310/201310-testing/g' /etc/opkg/*.conf
+
+Then run 'opkg update', 'opkg upgrade' and finally 'reboot'.
+
+
+DISABLE SERVICES
+
+To use the sysmobts together with the tester, the following systemd services must be disabled
+but using the mask and not using the disable option. You can use the following lines:
+
+systemctl mask osmo-nitb
+systemctl mask sysmobts
+systemctl mask sysmobts-mgr
+
+
+SSH ACCESS
+
+Copy the SSH public key from the system/user that runs the tester to the BTS
+authorized keys file so the tester will be able to deploy binaries.
+
+It is also advisable to configure the eth0 network interface of the BTS to a
+static IP address instead of using DHCP. To do so adjust /etc/network/interfaces
+and change the line
+
+ iface eth0 inet dhcp
+
+to
+
+ iface eth0 inet static
+ address 10.42.42.114
+ netmask 255.255.255.0
+ gateway 10.42.42.1
+
+Set the name server in /etc/resolve.conf (most likely to the IP of the
+gateway).
+
+
+ALLOW CORE FILES
+
+In case a binary run for the test crashes, we allow it to write a core file, to
+be able to analyze the crash later. This requires a limit rule:
+
+ scp install/osmo-gsm-tester-limits.conf sysmobts:/etc/security/limits.d/
