The initial revision was brilliantly buggy: it is *so* apparent
that cdrom will never be actually used for rw slice that this
has evaded my attention rather completely.
This change tries to force loading the storage driver
for cases when SecureBoot is "helping" the chainloader
to fail, see #29705 for details collected so far.
Of course ahci.ko only does AHCI but that's every storage
controller I've seen on UEFI/SecureBoot systems so far.
Let's put osec tools into installable packages at least
(aiming to shift these into default install probably);
these are worthwile addition to sysadmin's toolbox.
Thanks dobr@ for bringing this up.
It turns out that regular-rescue.iso lacks sshfs,
which is unfortunate (even if it could be installed
with apt in this particular case); three more FUSE
based filesystems have been added just in case.
Thanks mithraen@ for suggesting davfs2.
I'm fed up with graphical software occasionally making it
into regular-rescue.iso and bloating it for no good reason
given that window managers or xinitrc aren't included.
This has been spotted and solved manually several times already,
and that's just boring so let's add the ability to state that
X11-based software is not accepted into a particular rescue image.
Not that I would hate X but things like that belong to a carefully
crafted image which includes either X server or reasonable means
to ensure that GUI software can actually be used.
NB: this is a somewhat new entity: test/rescue/no-x11 knob
for an image-script intended to make it blow up the build
when libX11 is found within the chroot that makes up
the rescue image's filesystem.
The interface is not documented intentionally: it will take
some time to find out whether it sticks or is bad enough.
Please do remind/ask if interested in using that.
Seeing tagged/base+rescue~ in build.log isn't particularly
heart-warming; while other editors but the one leaving tilda
marked backups and .sw* swap files might exist let's do this
step at this time.
Wonder what changed though, this used not to happen before.
Dank Bagryantsev asked if it could be added to available packages
at least; well it is there now but not in default install
as aptitude is currently unsupported.
I don't think we're gonna like plymouth over rescue image
anytime soon, especially when it hides the moment when shell
pops up somewhere under it without startup-rescue caring to
remove the splash.
So let's put that $(INSTALL2_BRANDING) into proper stage2
flavours only and avoid choking on missing plymouth as well.
led@ has different kernel-modules-* package set,
some of those "standard" names are provided but
vbox* is not the case.
As our macros and helpers will grok this just fine,
let's add both variants so what's present gets in.
This kernel can help save almost 50 megabytes of image size
and shave off several megs of RAM consumption as well which
is important after the installation has been through.
Adding rescue image was requested by Speccyfighter (in Russian):
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/community/2013-December/681045.html
...and it seems hard but doable if one doesn't mind barebone rescue;
still efi-shell shouldn't spoil x86_64 build as that one won't fit CD-R
and doesn't have to anyways.
In these tough times there are no extra resources to waste
for wars or some extra rescue; so it is imperative to provide
some lean and mean help, you know.
IOW a common base has been split out and a more tight rescue
image configuration has been added on top of that so as to
try and fit altlinux-p7-sysv-tde.iso for i586 into CD-R.
Argh, so alterator-auth was hiding under a name it provides too
-- now *that* is the cause for those last-step failures as the
rest of the environment hasn't been getting set up apparently.
Just drop it, there's a proper domain-client pkglist for that.
This is what 63293ff22a should
have done too.
un-def got unsuitable due to initial ramdisk migrating from
initramfs to tmpfs by default in newer kernels, and propagator
was using pretty kludgy way to determine that /dev has been
mounted already; led-ws (and supposedly lks-wks) have stumbled
upon this earlier.
20130822 version has been fixed regarding that.
I've noted that this bit of code should be fixed up
before pushing but managed to overlook that in the end :(
mkimage version bump is due to the somewhat changed layout
of EFI packages and binaries within those (linked message in Russian):
http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/devel-distro/2013-December/001283.html
...instead of installer-distro-desktop which pulls in
alterator-auth which breaks things big time for sysv-tde
installer image due to avahi-daemon lazy to run.
Of course it's the last step of installation that has to fail.
And I've been considering this for several months already anyways.
I wondered how regular-e18 lacked econnman but it only
took a closer look to understand that it's just not told
to go in, plain and simple!
There are no e18-extra-modules (at least so far),
confine that to desktop+e17.
It's proprietary now but still very useful with no free software
alternatives for UEFI platform so far; let's include efi-memtest86
into the rescue image at least.
We chose to provide methods to sign packages but to avoid
signing these by default (with some arbitrary test keys)
the signatures are being added *after* the build by means
of rpmrebuild-pesign; all of this is made significantly
more complicated if there are separate -signed subpackages.
So these are being dropped in the packages; account for that.
Everything is handled within mki-copy-efiboot currently
but it needs an image to process; extracting one from
bootloader branding seems less hassle than forcing it
into every flavour of branding.
