use/live/autologin target tries hard to configure any available
autologin means, including a dedicated package and a few DMs.
Thanks gns@ as liveflash.eeepc got robbed somewhat.
It was actually trivial given that the script was already
maintained as a package by enp@ and msp@; its usage requires
one to manually partition the target disk and optionally
mkswap in advance.
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...
If you make distro/live-builder.iso, the result is an image
containing almost everything (short of actual full enough
repository) to rebuild itself. It will attempt to configure
eth0 with DHCP and reach http://ftp.altlinux.org for packages.
RAM requirements start with 2Gb, self-build is accomplished
on a 4Gb host with "make CLEAN=1 distro/live-builder.iso".
Packages required for "make distro/syslinux.iso" get included.
(some due fixups all over the place too)
MAIN_GROUPS should align better along with MAIN_PACKAGES
and MAIN_LISTS (even if MAIN_ prefix might be suboptimal
given that these packages are essentially extras within
the particular image).
It's still very immature -- base lists should be really base,
and functionality should be sorted out in more consistent way.
So far moved to tagged lists (which need some more experimentation
anyways to get both lists and their use more elegant).
- fixed live.iso (now actually useful):
+ extra cleanup was being done (coming from install2 case)
+ root user was password blocked
+ there was no unprivileged user (added "altlinux" w/o password)
+ added xdm setup hook for future X-based livecd flavours
+ several picks for a less slim "base" list
+ xdm login
- tweaked rescue.iso (added ext3grep)
- introduced generic stage2 subprofile (non-standalone)
- ported installer and rescue over to stage2/{install2,rescue}
- initial stage2/live (needs more work for sure)
- use make-initrd-propagator
- updated and somewhat extended doc/
NB: mind #26133, #26134
