This is a base for "media check" to become available:
using this feature will implant a checksum into the image
so that it can be verified during install.
Also added a test/demo distro/live-isomd5sum target.
For real distros an alterator module is probably due.
This feature was handling powersave already, so the name
should be changed already. Thanks sem@ for cpufreq-simple,
there's now a compelling reason for that rename.
Tweaked a few distro recipes accordingly.
- toplevel README received some long-needed refactoring
+ lowlevel detail moved, well, to lowlevel READMEs
- reflected more thoroughly that m-p is not about distros anymore
- dropped features.in/00example/README.en: it's already out-of-date
a bit, and there's no perceived need in thorough English docs so far
- wiki article got split into parts and somewhat rewritten, links updated
- mv doc/{CodingStyle,style.txt}
Also added to the live-builder ISO which is now self-hosted
(sans full repo): one can build an image capable of rebuilding
itself (which is not that useful) and of building other goodies
on some temporarily unused RAM-filled hardware (which is the goal).
If you make distro/live-builder.iso, the result is an image
containing almost everything (short of actual full enough
repository) to rebuild itself. It will attempt to configure
eth0 with DHCP and reach http://ftp.altlinux.org for packages.
RAM requirements start with 2Gb, self-build is accomplished
on a 4Gb host with "make CLEAN=1 distro/live-builder.iso".
Packages required for "make distro/syslinux.iso" get included.
(some due fixups all over the place too)
This was asked for by Leo-sp50 and torabora, and seems quite reasonable:
let's provide means to keep at least some distribution configurations
a bit apart, so that these can be considered more standalone in terms
of hard warranted functionality but at the same time enjoying the common
infrastructure.
Considering lib/distro.mk: it's now experimentally pulled apart so that
parallel development of different distro families can go on without
major merge hassles. *Please* don't abuse with massive copy-paste.
And before you ask: this might get extended to allow for "private"
out-of-tree configurations being included since apparently there
are goals with no meaning outside of some very particular context...
but otherwise I'd like to encourage getting reusable bits in-tree.
