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.
While ildar@ has some reason for the slimmer image
the somewhat standalone one is documented in examples
for offline use, ruining it in-place is not an option.
Let's just do a split (and lose a target-specific variable
example in favour of a commodity pkglist by the way; oh well).
a live-builder appliance is (or may be) usually used for building software
with many dependencies, hence needing access to external resources,
e.g. apt repos with lib${NAME}-devel packages.
This commit cuts RPM packages from the live-builder LiveCD.
Introduced distro/.live-desktop-ru as a shortcut for
distro/.live-desktop use/live/ru which occurs several times
already (and the counter will increase right now).
Thanks go to ildar@ for spotting this: my ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk
routinely contains DEBUG = 1 line which effectively masked this
regression in commit 307fb51f15.
Wouldn't be a big deal but syslinux.iso is recommended in
tutorial docs being slim and fast-building, and it's also
what's buildable locally in live-builder.iso environment.
The rationale for the former is that the image gets slightly
more compact (although the current sisyphus build is way larger
than the t6/branch build of the optimization time, need to look
into that...); and for the latter it's to provide yet another
installer with a different enough kernel so that there's one more
chance in a weird situation.
There's a bunch of additions to the MATE package list:
thanks viy@ for pulling extras into autoimports,
several more tweaks done due to hints by dek@,
and openssh packages added for debugging convenience.
The kernel's been changed for the latest one (un-def).
The package actually passed the test and just got uploaded
to Sisyphus proper; its aim is to help set up the cross-arch
QEMU build environment.
NB: there are known issues with PPC32-on-x86_64 (which were
the cause for this package and commit to be created in the
first place).
Some images were unbuildable (at least without special setup,
like ve/centos), unusable or just not useful in any meaningful way
(like distro/live-isomd5sum); as these tend to get any attention
during experiments, I decided to put them together in a separate
configuration file that would be effectively skipped if DEBUG
is not requested.
This one was suggested by enp@ for industrial use where
some extra protection for the boot process might be quite
desirable.
If no syslinux ui was specified (the stock configuration paths
ensure there is one) or if it was set to "none" explicitly,
then there's no boot: prompt (let alone any menu).
If there's a need to ensure that the boot process is not
interruptable by Ctrl/Shift/Caps Lock/Scroll Lock.
Also pulled the pkglist/kmodule part out of distro/server-mini's
recipe and started off a standalone feature based on it.
NB: el-smp kernel now contains aufs as a module but propagator
doesn't try to modprobe it.
This one was requested by Andrew Churashev; please note
that the image in use must contain recent flash plugin
so that at least the already known vulnerabilities are
more or less plugged in it... and Sun Java plugin isn't
going to get secure either.
There's no need to repeat the typical openssh-* triade
all over the place; those who need server and client
are better off pulling in "openssh" pkglist, and those
needing a particular package should specify it.
autologin won't register a consolekit session, and gnomes
are too greedy regarding sessions to let us go unmolested...
This particular image isn't production ready when built on
current Sisyphus yet due to unresolved NM/dbus problems
but I decided to at least archive the reached state.
An initial draft of it was done half a year ago but several tricky
thingies had kept the code from showing up as it was rather brittle
and incomplete.
This implementation involves quite a few changes all over the place
but finally works good enough for live and installer images.
Please pay attention to the versions of these packages:
- installer-feature-setup-plymouth (0.3.2-alt1+)
- branding-altlinux-sisyphus (20110706-alt2+ if used)
- plymouth (0.8.3-alt20.git20110406+)

After having added metadata dependency livecd-install
started to look more like a feature than like an intermediate
distribution target; so things were shuffled a bit that way.
use/slinux-live: in p6 slinux had install-dvd version too
lists/slinux/misc-dvd: user 3d-proprietary comes from use/x11/3d-proprietary
lists/slinux/misc-dvd:restore compiz
slinux: use/syslinux/localboot.cfg
Sometimes it's desirable to provide the kernel supporting
maximal amount of RAM on the system; bad news is that x86
has a kludge named PAE, good news is that x86_64 doesn't
need it at all; but now we must be able to choose between
those.
BIGRAM will hold the flavour needed.
It is actually an effort by glebfm@ to create an experimental
systemd-based Simply Linux LiveCD; I merely reviewed the original
diff, moved kernel related bits to firmware (see preceding commits)
and introduced a dedicated pkglist namespace by creating a directory.
Thanks snejok@ for spotting the missing, I didn't get around
to tests with headphones...
Also fixed nouveau getting in after target shuffling,
and tweaked firefox homepage to be useful in this context.
- incompatible change (to fix the rather broken early style):
use/syslinux/ui-% is now use/syslinux/ui/%;
- default timeout changed to 9 seconds (long enough and keeps
the countdown in a single figure);
- added totaltimeout of 300 seconds;
- provided live kiosk images with almost-instant boot by default;
...and some other assorted tweaks here and there, sorry.
Thanks to a reviewer who came with useful feedback and a goal:
http://www.opennet.ru/openforum/vsluhforumID3/83728.html#136
the live-webkiosk image got forked into a separate one:
- dropped DRI, virtualbox GA, mc & co, docs, rpmdb;
- added Russian keyboard layout (ctrl+shift to toggle);
- rebased live-webkiosk onto live-webkiosk-mini ;-)
Maybe vbox guest additions will get back but rpmdb is a bit
impractical on a kiosk squashfs image, even in presence of
aufs rw overlay.
This one should help (erm... hope not the other way around!)
testing both 3D setup and FlightGear packages I happen to
maintain in a known clean environment.
As noted in doc/assumptions.txt, the SHELL based target tracing
only works for rules with recipes, even empty but present ones.
The simplest thing to do is hooking "; @:" onto the rule's tail
(one-liner with a non-printing shell builting "true" command).
It looks like the intermediate targets aren't all equal:
some define a finished feature while some create a common
lower level piece of configuration.
Let's do shortcuts for the former so that a distro line can be
more terse and descriptive; help targets in features.in/ tweaked
accordingly.
If we have a supported display manager, we should rather autoconfigure
that one for autologin instead of configuring autologin package:
those tend to play better with "modern" session management in terms
of runlevel control etc.
xdm doesn't really differ though.
TODO: maybe skip autologin *package* configuration if any dm found
in the live image-script?
It's preferred for Razor-qt's logout app to be able to turn
the system off or reboot it; xdm lacks consolekit support.
Thanks Alexander Sokoloff for the hint.
