## Editorial

As Spring gets closer to summer and the heat starts to rise (northern
hemisphere centric), so does the work at Devuan. There is tons going on
behind the scenes with many people working on pre-alpha builds.

A couple of shout outs to golinux, hope your back is better, we miss you
and to Centurion_Dan on the birth of his son, congrats!

A big thank you goes to the volunteers working on the Devuan News. *You*
make this possible.

## Lately in Devuan

### [vdev status update][3]

Jude Nelson posted his latest update for vdev

Thanks to all who followed [Jude's instruction to provide testing
information for vdev development][3a]. Keep'em coming!

### [stonix, a security tool][5]
Roy Nielsen posted that a beta release of stonix, a security tool to
give non-windows operating systems a base level of security based on
government guideline and industry best
practices.

### [eudev status][6]
jaret posted on A novice attempt to speed up Devuan development that he
had pushed eudev to the git (https://git.devuan.org/jaretcantu/eudev).

>I used eudev version 1.9 since it is based on systemd 215. That is the

udev/systemd version used by Jessie, so it just seemed to make a lot
more sense.


### [How to bust into a broken Qemu VM][7]
Steve started How to bust into a broken Qemu VM.
>This isn't precisely about Devuan, but given the number of us testing
>Devuan in Qemu VMs, it would probably be very handy information.
>
>When you accidentally bork a Qemu VM such that it won't boot to a

>would help, unless you can boot from the "cdrom" but somehow also
>access the existing "hard disk" borked VM image.
>
>So how do you bust back into a borked VM?


NOTE: Steve marked this solved!

### [Document on using Qemu for Linux DIY][8]
Steve Litt posted "Document on using Qemu for Linux DIY"

>Hi all,
>
>I just finished a very basic document on using Qemu for Linux DIY,

which I tech-edited using Valentines Devuan:
>
>http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/diy/qemu.htm>
>
>It's based on three shellscripts, and also contains instructions for

sharing host and guest /tmp/xfer directory via sshfs. As you know, Qemu
currently has no copy and paste between host and guest, so a shared
directory's a great way to transfer copied text or screenshots.
>
>The shellscripts in this doc, perhaps modified by you, might be a

timesaver for some of you who are repeatedly testing Devuan.
>
>Hope you like it.
