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...
It's the common part that should be more or less architecture
independent (given enough packages in the corresponding repo)
that's been moved into a mixin; archdep bits kept in basealt.mk
(albeit rewritten).
Note that this approach should help building ALT Workstation
for both new arches (like aarch64 or mipsel) and new targets
(like vm) altogether.
Linux Driver Management (aka LDM) allows easy configuration of different
hardware. Currently this hook does GPU configuration on systems with
multiple GPUs (aka Optimus/PRIME).
The goal was simple: every use/e2k/{x11,install2}/$MACHINE
must be self-sufficient regarding platform support, that is
it must depend on the corresponding CPU-specific target.
A bit less make-tech but still better overall.
NB: llvm cleanup is not needed anymore after upgrade to
Mesa-17/llvm-3.7, should be dropped like this year.
This one started with pulling use/init/sysv/polkit
out from distro/.e2k-installer since there are now
some systemd-based e2k installers as well; it looks
better to provide two distinct intermediate targets
(and leave polkit-sysvinit up for the distro ones).
