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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
BASE_BOOTLOADER must have been set to any of the supported
bootloader names somewhere during configuration; it is not
impossible to avoid this elsewhere so let's put a guardian
script which will stop the build which is known to result
in a broken image.
sub/main subprofile should not be requested directly
as documented in its README but rather via use/repo/main;
let's fix this discrepancy and check that no regressions
come hurling down.
- speech-ru and speech-en features are added;
- speech-related things removed from homeros features;
- speech/ directory for package lists added and other corresponding changes.
Networking is *not* brought up by these rescue images
by default, one is expected to know enough to do that
by hand if needed; still there's no harm to have apt
preconfigured so that it would be operational then.
There are various bootloaders around there and some of them
are supported in ALT Linux; let's provide all the mainstream
ones so that knowledgeable root@ has every tool needed for
most situations needing bootloader repairs.
These might require particular knowledge or special boot mode
(like EFI ones).
Being able to handle [compressed] archives of all kinds
tends to be pretty instrumental in rescue operations,
and some backup system clients won't hurt either.
Some ancient Serial words like "minicom" still come handy
at times too.
Comments, constructive criticism and proposals are welcome.
Let's ensure that make-initrd-luks gets to the base install
until installer is tweaked to enable in-flight installation
of options like this.
Adding luks to stage1 [make-initrd] features makes no sense
on the other hand (and it wasn't happening anyways due to
the lack of add_feature function call in config.mk as was
accidentally spotted).
And putting luks packages into an installer image lacking
the reference to alterator-luks isn't that sensible, let's
complain to logs at the very least (this isn't going to hit
the default output though).
"prompt" and subsequent first "label" were not separated
in any way while second "label" and forth were; let's make
the resulting isolinux.cfg a tiny bit more pretty.
This is to avoid NM messing with network interface
involved in NFS root filesystem being operational
(see alterator-netinst); thanks sem@ for the hint.
alterator-netinst currently relies on "default"
being specified explicitly; it's wrong and it should
cope with the first "label" clause as well but we're
better off being strict to this script, not that one.
This commit should be no-op regarding syslinux itself.
That is, no need to pull in systemd as syslogd-daemon provider
when an unspecified one has been requested by interactivesystem
or anything else.
The tricky issue is that THE_LISTS will get expanded separately
and too late to specify a particular provider which will have been
auto-chosen while expanding e.g. BASE_PACKAGES.
It was a temporary hack actually, and is better dropped long-term:
things like predefined root accounts with remote access are *evil*
and this hook was a half of that "solution".
Use of oem feature to integrate first-boot setup is recommended
to deal with this issue, at least when graphics are available.
The initial suggestion that any cubox image is a desktop one
didn't hold out for long; and xorg related bits are not that
related to boot script setup in terms of neccessity.
It basically reads the same but was referring to a neighbour
script that has been moved to a separate deflogin feature
during heavy refactoring of initial implementation draft.
This one was replaced by the net feature completely
and has been declared obsolete since 1.1.1 (a month ago).
A few remaining users trivially adjusted.
There was no need to split carrying over the pubkey
and tightening up permissions on the file and its parent
directory to be done in two separate scripts; this should
be more generic now as a bonus.
Users adjusted accordingly.
Intro: NetworkManager-wait-online.service would, well, wait
for some network interface to become online or for timeout
to kick in.
Problem: if a LiveCD is tested in offline environment
that timeout will only impede the boot.
Proposed solution: use/net/nm/nodelay target has been implemented
to disable that service as proposed by sem@ and done in Simply;
"+nm" target changed to be an alias to this one.
It's old, it uses consolekit (even if not neccessarily),
it borders obsolescence *but* removal of udev-alsa has caused
massive regressions (e.g. regular-gnome3 had soundcard mixer
levels dropped to zero from the start, regular-razorqt added
inability to poweroff to that...).
Just get it back.
The nuance being that:
- alterator-setup package would change default.target
for systemd providing a symlink of its own and making
a backup of what was there (rc3 basically);
- 40-x11-autostart would ignore that backup;
- 99-oem-setup would do nothing about it all either;
- alterator-setup removal would restore rc3 symlink.
It's not pretty either, something more robust should be
invented some day.
