More than one BOOTLOADER may be available for the same architecture.
Set IMAGE_PACKTYPE in boot/iso, there is no point in duplicating
in different features.
Closes ALT bug 39786.
Every .iso was assumed to be bootable since the very beginning[*],
and isoboot images were deemed to be x86 isolinux ones; this didn't
change with basic ppc/armh support as I never ran into hardware
that would _boot_ those ISOs, not only run the code, and it was
only e2k isodata project that finally forced this refactoring.
It's still not perfect: pack and syslinux features still end up
somewhat interwoven, and too much places care for architecture
the image is being built for (instead of archdep features tossing
their appropriate bits and pieces in).
Should help:
- any-arch regarding isodata images;
- {x86,aarch64}/efi by decoupling isoboot and isolinux;
- ppc{,64} as introducing yaboot support will be easier now;
- mipsel{,64} too, hopefully.
* I knew of school addon images baked with mkimage-profiles-desktop
but postponed and then neglected the whole problem for years...
Yes these bits are related to distro/ prefixed images
still the overgeneralization in distro.mk didn't pay off
but rather hid a bug with the only boot/isolinux in use
having no dependency on use/syslinux (which is required).
Maybe this will get revisited when we have other kinds
of bootable images with other bootloaders (vm/ ones care
for themselves as of today).
