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.
The changes in commits gb3e3234 and ga860b17 were actually useless
as rescue+fs list wasn't included into RESCUE_LISTS... and I need
pv(1) for convenient local disk cloning with time estimate.
This basically reverts commit c18ef37274
for all practical purposes and restores the problem with chromium livecd
still that's less of a problem compared to regular builds complaining
that firefox is not the default browser when it's the only one anyways.
A bit longer version is: add the script which cares to protect
the interfaces which has been brought up during NFS root bootup
already from being tampered with by NetworkManager so as to avoid
losing network with networked rootfs.
live-webkiosk doesn't really need it and mixin/desktop-installer
was picking it up due to d+n+l satisfying d+n query. This could
be fixed with && !live but fixing bitrot is the better way to go.
Actually the issue was worse in general: *_PACKAGES
weren't quoted when put into .base thus resulting
in a potentially broken echo command (silent one).
The macro scheme used was overgeneralized; stuffing
quoting differentiation into it was doable but ugly
(unless one is able to pass an unquoted quote sign
as a function's parameter in some elegant manner),
let's just make it straightforward.
distro/.regular-install depends on use/luks now too;
this isn't a hard decision but so far looks good
given the overall functionality range and balance
within regular builds.
