Added sysklogd and udev-rule-generator-net there too; if someone
needs to inherit a systemd based image from distro/.desktop-network
don't break the existing behaviour please.
Rebased tde flavours to .desktop-network as these were the actual
target to fix.
There's some peculiarity causing Sisyphus' initrd
(namely led-ws and make-initrd{,-propagator} of today
to die with this message while booting the resulting ISO:
initrd: Running /scripts/pre/prepare/000-propagator
FATAL ERROR IN INIT: mkdir
I can't recover from this,please reboot manually and send bugreport.
It's required by make-initrd-propagator in "rw slice" mode
when the remainder of an USB Flash drive is prepared and used
for persistent storage; fdisk is also immensely useful in general.
Please see the bug for explanations; too bad I chose to limit this
workaround to experimental gnustep image yesterday when aen@ suggested
to apply it universally...
Whoops, and I was mildly wondering where are alterator modules...
thanks Speccyfighter again for bringing attention to the issue
which has turned out to be ultimately caused by an overlooked bit
being missing.
The real issue was that regular-tde.iso was discovered to
lack FAT support in alterator-vm (known as #28470); as the
filesystem specific packages are pulled in via rescue lists
let's add it here along with dosfstools.
Thanks Speccyfighter at forum.altlinux.org for spotting this.
As zerg@ noted there's synaptic-kde already; I managed to overlook
that synaptic-usermode still gets into kde4 image as it's put into
base+regular pkglist. Thanks aen@ for spotting.
Quite a few filesystem specific tools and utilities went into extra,
some of them pulled back from fs since the proper categorization will
clearly require even more effort.
Added utilities for: f2fs, nilfs, logfs, reiser4fs, clicfs, cloop,
ocfs2, exofs, zfs, cifs.
This one was just asking to be built for quite a long time;
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/smartmontools/wiki/LiveCDs
specifically accenting use of smartmontools 6.0 has finally
persuaded me to roll out yet another rescue livecd, that is
on the regular basis.
The reason is to contain the implementation details
within this feature while adding the ability to include
everything it can provide (e.g., for rescue images).
This includes an updated version of 50-fontconfig script
which actually works (the preliminary one attached to #28612
didn't); thanks zerg@ and cow@ for providing the incentive
to introduce it.
Based on m-p-d and installer-feature-kdesktop-fontconfig.
Forum feedback has shown that it's a bit surprising
given the lack of other multimedia applications in
baseline package set; aen@ suggested to leave it out
and hardware support testing requires much more than
that anyways.
The issue is that r8169 is rather broken nowadays while
r8168 tends to work on the same hardware; see also #28473.
Thanks zerg@ for having hinted that it's stage1 modules,
not the root squashfs.
The metapackage was fine, the "only one" additional package
was more or less okay, but there came a dozen more so it's
now reasonable to stash these into a separate pkglist.
...and refactored its use in cinnamon image too;
this isn't a permanent solution though,
slated to move into fonts feature.
Thanks gns@ for suggestion.
There isn't much sense to keep an entirely separate flavour
as deepsolver starts being actually useful and icewm is
a somewhat special flavour for those who know their ways
around Linux plumbing.
It's possible that use/efi/signed target has fired already
at the time when use/efi/shell is invoked; shouldn't clobber
the signed shell with unsigned one.
The various *8168 and friends among kernel modules
have finally been pushed into a designated target
so that RM doesn't have to care which particular
additional ethernet modules are available in this
particular branch and kernel.
Tweak distros as appropriate.
NB: *maybe* this is required by distro/.base either.
acpi_call is used far too often when dealing with the newer
portable x86 hardware, we're better off including it when
it's available.
regular.mk adjusted appropriately.
Richard and Theo would probably roll their eyes at this point
but the unfortunate reality is that wireless hardware is very
much dependent on firmware being explicitly provided; so here
it is.
rtl8192 kernel module added since it's present in t6/branch
at least.
This change mostly concerns with making icewm flavour
the lean one again.
The goal is to widen the dynamic range of regular image features:
icewm is not a desktop thus can bear withouth systemd-logind
even if a bunch of network-managing-media-mounting crap has been
rigged to depend on it, and ALT domain client should be included
in most builds for convenient testing in SMB environments but can
stay out of this minimal and "different" image.
It also receives the "un-def" kernel flavour (3.8.0 as of today)
which might benefit from the more available testing facility too.
Its branding is also simplified, plain syslinux menu is fine;
in similar vein, refind feature is flipped from icewm-only to
all-but-icewm set of images with its state being good enough
as of refind 0.6.7 and mkimage 0.2.7.
mate-default pulls in mate-minimal and both of them
require packages which are also specified in this
pkglist; thus the pkglist should be pruned to avoid
double work and splits like "mate-vfs is dropped
from 1.5 package set, mate-default is adjusted but
the pkglist references the now-missing package".
It happens when there are no separate arch/noarch subrepositories
but everything is dumped into a single directory like in installer
or live-builder environment (at least as of today).
It was removing autodetection setting completely
thus implicitly setting it to the default "all"
with make-initrd-0.8.1+; just set it to be empty.
Thanks legion@ and boyarsh@; see also #28578.
Added use/live/net-eth so that autoconfigured images
still work in predictable manner.
May those breaking trivial cases walk with zillion of
cdrom, modem, ethernet etc device nodes all around them!
The inobvious issue is that while lxde-settings
is required by lxde-common and provided by both
lxde-settings-{altlinux,upstream}, we can't just
add the needed one via PACKAGES since the LISTS'
deps are expanded already with -upstream taking
lexicographical precedence.
This might become more serious if/when there are
several useful packages, -upstream isn't AFAIK
(thanks gns@ for explanation).
Citing the initial comment: "lxterminal is reportedly
sub-par (gns@) but official (aen@)"; the functionality
PoV finally won.
Terminus fonts added to account for presets.
See also #28567.
Added fvwm flavour specially for perestoronin from da LOR.
As if it wasn't enough,
- added UEFI support to desktop/,live-desktop intermediate target;
- added live installation capability to desktop/.livecd-install;
- added "net-eth" subfeature to get good ol' eth0 insteal of enp0s3;
- dropped use/x11/autologin as live subprofile sets up
a supported DM for automatic login anyways.
It'd be better for this commit to appear before 0.9.7
(and clobber the original one) but at least the added
functionality has been tested; time to generalize it.
The issue has shown up in regular-*-20130207: /etc/resolv.conf
would suddenly be empty upon successful bootup in virtualbox
with a single DHCP configurable ethernet.
dmesg has some trouble signs:
aufs au_lkup_neg:267:kworker/0:2[998]:
I/O Error, resolv.conf should be negative on b0
sem@ tells something like that has been seen before in a different
configuration (multiple aufs overlays with /etc/ and /var sitting
in different ones resulting in broken hardlinks); rescue boot with
a test "echo > /etc/resolv.conf" yields an I/O error either.
The patch is loosely based upon livecd-net-eth and
m-p-d::profiles/live/image-scripts.d/init3-{network,resolve}.
See also #28484 for the (still ongoing) discussion.
enp0s3 is quite inferior to eth0 in terms of usability
even if it might be more convenient for the machine{,ry}.
Let's stick with what works here in ALT Linux (see #28484).
Once upon a time the first and only ethernet interface
on a Linux system used to be known under the name of eth0;
but years passed and the systemd shadow has drawn closer
even to the seemingly remote areas like interface names.
In short, it might get named e.g. enp0s3 (a more human
friendly name of course) and the exact name is to be
figured out in runtime as well.
Sigh.
The issue is that gfxboot's gettext support works on "label"
strings but doesn't work properly on "menu label" ones as of 4.04
(the "menu label" translations pop up in the "Loading ..." window
but menu items themselves are unaffected thus untranslated).
NB: debian wheezy's syslinux-4.05 package patchset contains
somewhat related 07-gfxboot-menu-label.patch; might be worth
attention given that debian folks participate in upstream.
Now this is ugly: instead of commoditizing the repetitive code
the result ended up working differently by creating several
repositories for the target subdirs instead of the single one
for the generated subprofile as a whole.
This results in .disk/profile.tgz being basically useless
in every image since c4311108ea.
The same "regular-gtk" based set of images received common
desktop background provided; note that kde4 won't like it
(branding package didn't really anticipate kde4 and is to
be updated appropriately as well as extended for mate/fvwm).
This one is also used for lightdm/gtk.
"regular-gtk" based images moved from the (unsupported) gdm2.20
to the (supported) lightdm with gtk greeter; while a couple of
gdm2 forks have emerged it's still unclear whether mate or mint
one will be actually alive, even short/mid-term.
The issue is that it's suddenly broken in current Sisyphus,
looks like the peculiar set of assumptions in fedora-tweaked
systemd+plymouth+gdm3 relies on tty1 being the X session tty
and it's different here.
It appears that manually specified IMAGEDIR, e.g. by adding
IMAGEDIR = ~/out/$(shell date +%Y%m%d)
to ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk, might be problematic due to
missing globbing. Let's make sure the paths are globbed
and directories are created -- since make's wildcard()
returns an empty string when there's nothing there [yet].
It appeared that plymouthd.conf wasn't set up properly
thus "service plymouth stop" didn't result in anything
meaningful; thanks boyarsh@ for his help figuring this
out again.
Folks have been wondering already whether e.g. t6 breakage
qualifies as a bug; it does indeed unless the "broken" part
depends on the features not available with that branch yet,
e.g. EFI support.
Its support was dropped in mkimage some time ago
since xorriso semantics changed quite considerably
and the tweak that was done here is now performed
out-of-box thus no longer needed.
It's aimed at providing UEFI shell implementation which is very
useful for repairs and debug; if the "signed" mode is requested
then the signed variant is used either.
Please note that there are two distinct uses:
- a shell lying around on a filesystem to be copied by hand;
- a shell available in EFI part of boot media to be launched
by firmware's or standalone boot manager (e.g. refind).
Let's provide the official terminal emulator as the reference one,
and those preferring others are welcome to include these either.
(to some extent this commit is biased towards regular.mk though)
The reason is that the most interesting live images by now are
installable ones, and while configurable boot order is not there yet
the "classic" livecd images will require manual choice to boot.
Thanks sem@ for reminding of that FR (which is still open).
It would be great to have #28289 fixed either so that aris@
could approve the image as usable (I totally agree that it's
a major piece of real world functionality currently missing)
looks like there's sense to prepare a starter iso for tests.
Currently done for 40-autologin script only but might be
more widely useful: when describing an action to be done
while forming the LiveCD image, also prepare the one that
undoes the effect so that an installed LiveCD doesn't
(mis)behave as if it were young again.
NB: livecd-install provides 50-{gdm,kdm}-autologin-off.sh
hooks which can collide with ours, so let's override those
until things are sorted out properly at both sides.
PS: some half-year old nodm hacks are still in place for t6/branch
(and #27451 should be re-examined when dropping those).
- added destination homeros-nano.iso yields minimal
speaking image;
- added "homeros" feature contain scripts appropriate
for general Homeros functions but need further development.
The current refind support implementation doesn't boot
with either USB Flash or CD-ROM for me (due to the different
actual volumes, FAT vs El Torito, accordingly).
And when it does, a host with Secure Boot present and not
disabled yet would turn the unsigned kernel down unlike ELILO
(due to rEFInd using "natural" calls to boot it).
Both issues are reported upstream; in the meanwhile let's
migrate a single test image but build the rest with elilo.
It's not e17-default alone right now, gnome-icon-theme package
appears requisite at the moment so that menus and IBar aren't
half-empty regarding graphics.
Thanks aris@ for the advice and lots of patience with me.
UEFI support is pretty requisite by now;
and el-smp hasn't seen updates for almost
half a year by now so an actively maintained
one is clearly preferred.
See http://www.altlinux.org/Регулярные_сборки_образов
for the idea behind this set of images; in short, it's
*not* a bunch of polished end-user distros in a moment
but rather to facilitate Sisyphus package base testing
in as-is state during branch pre-release time.
It's a separate installation step to set the LUKS password;
see also #28200 for (terse) discussion and instructions on
getting this actually working for a distro.
These are out there in Sisyphus and should be used
instead of copious lines in a package list.
Thanks sem@ for proposing gnome-icon-theme to supplement
the lack of icons in the default theme; note that tango
set doesn't quite cut it, even with extras.
Thunar -> thunar; xfcalendar -> orage
There's use/x11/kde already but that serves somewhat different
purpose as of today; the naming issue (kde vs kde4) was tersely
discussed with sin@ at the time of the merge of his KDE4 image
related bits and it's still not that clear.
Let's try this way and see if existing images would be ported
to use/x11/kde4.
The whole live-rescue needs a massive facelift regarding
applications included and user experience achieved (remember
that folks are going to be stressed enough already with data
lost or system(s) not booting, and probably offline as well);
but at least it's UEFI bootable now.
The (funny but somewhat confusing) problem manifests itself as
E: Couldn't find package Binary
during a build run in the profile where a tagged packagelist
referenced by a specific target being built is open with vim
(which results in .FILE.sw? temporary file lying aside).
There's a possibility to run into IA32 EFI but that's rather
uninteresting hardware (ancient Xeon servers and <s>outdated</s>
early Intel Mac laptops). Just drop it on the floor.
As x86_64 UEFI support would result in "2D hybrid(r)(tm)" image
which boots with all combinations of BIOS/UEFI by CD|DVD/Flash
(or at least should boot), some downgrace seems due: use/efi will
turn use/isohybrid on non-x86_64 -- which will require further
tweaks on PPC/ARM some day.
