There's a need for a separate boot target since
persistent storage is way slower than tmpfs indeed;
usbflash has a tendency for huge performance drops
given simultaneous writes in addition to reads which
are the bottleneck already.
make-initrd-propagator 0.18 introduced ext4 rw slice,
so the corresponding kernel module needs to be included
into stage1; see also #28289.
NB: not available on x86_64-efi (or hybrid GPT to be strict)
due to fragility of the hack being made: parted(8) panics
upon seeing that, and good ol' fdisk is unable to treat it.
NB: use/live/rw use/rescue/rx use/syslinux/ui/gfxboot
are unlikely to play very nice together due to the latter's
magic l10n: "session" label is taken by live_rw config snippet
and *is* translated in design-bootloader-source;
OTOH "rescue_session" is *not*.
The original mkisofs would only care for the proper ISO9660 image
but we've switched to xorriso which is able to perform the hack
to yield UEFI hybrid images; thus no need for the postprocessing.
Requires mkimage >= 0.2.5 and xorriso (obviously).
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.
