wash, rinse, repeat install2 cleanups: - functionally indifferent ones: particularly, install2/*/98system's "mkdir -p /image" was superfluous as it was done by that time already by sub.in/stage2/image-scripts.d/00stage1 - taken apart, prepared for tags: so far it's a mostly moot change since the installer cleanup scripts themselves are mostly the same as preceding 90cleanup was (with some additions corresponding to recent kernel development); it's still unclear what the mechanism for configuring the cleanups in effect will be, either directory/package regex lists or tagged scripts excluded from execution by yet another tag fixes: - image.in/Makefile: fix metadata related test; the actual test was assuming that stage1 kernel means installer, which is not the case since generic stage2 introduction; oh well - 85cleanup-lowmem: a "_" too much was the culprit in destroying the needed translations along with those deemed superfluous; thanks go to Oleg Ivanov and Lenar Shakirov for finding the bug and proposing the fix altogether additions: - features.in/Makefile: reworked help target; it was rather inaccessible due to BUILDDIR normally undefined at the time of direct make invocation, and BUILDDIR is normally defined during normal builds anyways so let's try it this way. - README++ daydreams: - 01-genbasedir: we should drop bzip2 compressed pkglists some day but see genbasedir and apt-cdrom first, 90-pkg.sh (alterator-pkg) will fail miserably otherwise 2011-09-19 11:55:45 +04:00			`# sample ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk`
server-ovz; KDEFAULT; syslinux features reworked Renamed server-light.iso into server-ovz.iso to avoid brand dilution and confusion (rider@'s server-light rather favours kvm, anyways). Introduced KDEFAULT: a reliable default kernel chooser knob since apt's regex ordering proved pretty unreliable. Spelling things explicitly is better anyways. SYSLINUX related features undergone pretty major rewrite (that includes syslinux, hdt and memtest). The problem to tackle was features.in/syslinux/generate.mk assuming syslinux and pciids available in build host system; this well might not be the case (or worse yet, those can be just different). So now we're a bit less elegant and a bit more enterprise, stuffing things into chroot and working there. Bunch of other fixes along the road, including ; to name a few: - fixed memtest entry (overlooked while renaming SYSLINUX_ITEMS) - new and shiny doc/CodingStyle - gfxboot, stage1 target chain, hdt tweaks - distro.mk rehashed - README++ - TODO: dropped (integer overflow anyways) + actually moved off-tree to reduce commit spam - s,\.config\.mk,distcfg.mk,g - doc/profiles.mk.sample: sample ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk - ...and assorted fixups/additions Sorry for convoluted commit, this would have been pretty hard to rework into some really readable shape (and you might be interested in the original repo's history horrors then, anyways). 2011-05-31 02:05:33 +04:00

BELL support Implemented opportunistic alarm support as proposed by torabora; the actual result depends on readline and/or terminal settings (read up on "visual bell" vs "audible bell" in case it's wrong). TODO: this ought to be shifted downstream when proper logging framework is there. 2011-10-31 18:49:05 +04:00
introduced NICE variable This one regulates the build wrapper: if the value is non-empty then nice(1) and ionice(1) will be attempted so that the build behaves better in regard to other tasks running on the system. A few doc/variables.txt updates along the way. 2011-11-04 17:53:06 +04:00			`# run with lower CPU and I/O priorities`
			`#NICE = 1`
