There's much reason for reuse instead of duplication
among the different stage2-based subprofiles.
In particular, the rather monolithic driver cleanup script
of the ancient is better done in several clear pieces with
the final depmod run.
Scripts dropping apt/rpm databases will dump pkglist first.
A script purging /boot/* will honour live-install if present.
Minor inno^Wfixups all over the map too.
As was noted by Alexey Shabalin in libosinfo context,
current ALT Linux images tend to lack ISO9660 metadata
-- which they did have back in the day of Master 2.4.
Please note that the data collection occurs this way
due to mkimage's config.mk resetting the values to be
empty; this was worked around by using another config
file, $(BUILDDIR)lib/iso.mk, and including it later
but that would require a separate target with per-target
CONFIG variable which isn't elegant at all given the need
to actually build up the metadata set.
So the variables were changed (to be more readable anyways)
and then proxied back to BOOT_*. This might be cleaned up
some day after the inclusion order is tweaked or mkimage
defaults get set-if-unset-yet (?=).
The features might get copy-pasted (or even copied-and-pruned)
when initialized; there's an unneccessary duplication of the
function name in the line adding it to FEATURES list, thus
prone to being forgotten and causing some havoc later on.
It was wrong in the first place but tackling this with some
double-colon rules ran into terminality issues, and further
tortures were considered unneccessary.
The current solution isn't perfect (no completely transparent
function name registration upon corresponding target being called)
but at least it is an improvement...
- toplevel README received some long-needed refactoring
+ lowlevel detail moved, well, to lowlevel READMEs
- reflected more thoroughly that m-p is not about distros anymore
- dropped features.in/00example/README.en: it's already out-of-date
a bit, and there's no perceived need in thorough English docs so far
- wiki article got split into parts and somewhat rewritten, links updated
- mv doc/{CodingStyle,style.txt}
This was tackled before but it took raorn@'s hint regarding
sys-freedos-linux (ms-sys has no bootsectors compatible with
freedos currently) and gns@' quick rush at make-freedos-floppy
script to wrap things up.
Should be further developed to become actually useful though.
