Another service that's not very useful on a LiveCD;
maybe should be enabled by default upon installation,
this also requires a proper framework in place.
This reverts commit ae44169139
as libglx has been fixed already; see #27340 and #28782 for
the details, huge thanks go to Alexey Borisenkov for his
thorough investigation and patches as well as to shrek@
and sin@ for their cooperation to get this fixed in Sisyphus.
The regular images became a bit too fat and rescueish
with all the good stuff going into rescue+extra pkglist;
that stuff does belong to dedicated rescue images but not
to each and every one.
The base+rescue pkglist has been tailored to take this
into account so we can now make regular-*.iso more fit too.
Moved the packages which impeded pkglist reuse for live distros
so that these stay within dedicated rescue images but don't
neccessarily go into the more generic ones where things like
fdisk are still quite useful.
This is to cope with #28782 while the culprit is being found out;
not much of a loss while #27340 is open (thus no 3D with vboxdrv
anyways).
I chose to avoid pulling the service related machinery into
vmguest (and haven't got around to factoring it out from live
feature's scripts into a standalone form) so had to tweak these
as well.
The issue at hand is the ability to accomodate boot sector
payload at the start of the filesystem's underlying block device.
XFS doesn't spare that space.
Thanks vsu@ for the reminder, by the way.
It might benefit the existing users to be able to configure the
build node persistently across reboots; though the need for something
like NFS overlay or repo settings piggybacked over DHCP is still there
(just ask ildar@).
The expected behaviour is to have online repositories enabled
when the livecd is running; the trouble with runtime detection
relates to the asynchronous nature of network configuration,
connection might get probed just before it is brought up
(thus failing the test).
Systems having been installed-from-live don't misbehave this way
so left unmolested.
Runtime detection is still available via use/live/repo/online
but is definitely not the default mechanism.
Thanks to Baurzhan Muftakhidinov's efforts along with help
from cas@ and zerg@, regular images should now support Kazakh
fairly well at least in terms of translation; this commit amends
these images with Ukrainian too and adds an experimental razorqt
based distribution that boots in kk_KZ by default.
There's no NetworkManager or connman in this lightweight image
so let's put at least the lightweight connection specific GUIs
like this one; proposed on the forum by Speccyfighter and
acked by squire as useful for traffic-metered plans:
http://forum.altlinux.org/index.php/topic,28619.msg201159.html#msg201159
Suggested by YYY; the initial plan was to include CUPS
in all the regular images but that turned out to be
impractical (too much bits added with too few actual
usage per bit expected).
So let's take s-c-p along with cups.
A syslogd is required by interactivesystem and we definitely
don't want any extra systemd on a sysvinit image.
Thanks Speccyfighter on the forum for the observation.
The former helps totem a lot regarding actual video reproduction,
suggested for gnome3-default metapackage; the latter helps aris@
to actually get any sound out, so is supposed to land there too.
A duplicate has formed while factoring out bare target;
as currently only the rescue image uses it in a special way
and that one benefits from additional crypto packages as well,
let's put LUKS related packages into bare for the time being.
The persistent storage is a nice addition to LiveCD images;
it doesn't come for free though in terms of performance
(especially for the first boot), so it should stay optional.
Note that use/live/rw belongs to base and not bare since
otherwise rescue becomes rescue+live which is superfluous;
hence the special use/rescue/rw.
There's a need for a separate boot target since
persistent storage is way slower than tmpfs indeed;
usbflash has a tendency for huge performance drops
given simultaneous writes in addition to reads which
are the bottleneck already.
make-initrd-propagator 0.18 introduced ext4 rw slice,
so the corresponding kernel module needs to be included
into stage1; see also #28289.
NB: not available on x86_64-efi (or hybrid GPT to be strict)
due to fragility of the hack being made: parted(8) panics
upon seeing that, and good ol' fdisk is unable to treat it.
NB: use/live/rw use/rescue/rx use/syslinux/ui/gfxboot
are unlikely to play very nice together due to the latter's
magic l10n: "session" label is taken by live_rw config snippet
and *is* translated in design-bootloader-source;
OTOH "rescue_session" is *not*.
The original mkisofs would only care for the proper ISO9660 image
but we've switched to xorriso which is able to perform the hack
to yield UEFI hybrid images; thus no need for the postprocessing.
Requires mkimage >= 0.2.5 and xorriso (obviously).
Added sysklogd and udev-rule-generator-net there too; if someone
needs to inherit a systemd based image from distro/.desktop-network
don't break the existing behaviour please.
Rebased tde flavours to .desktop-network as these were the actual
target to fix.
There's some peculiarity causing Sisyphus' initrd
(namely led-ws and make-initrd{,-propagator} of today
to die with this message while booting the resulting ISO:
initrd: Running /scripts/pre/prepare/000-propagator
FATAL ERROR IN INIT: mkdir
I can't recover from this,please reboot manually and send bugreport.
It's required by make-initrd-propagator in "rw slice" mode
when the remainder of an USB Flash drive is prepared and used
for persistent storage; fdisk is also immensely useful in general.
Please see the bug for explanations; too bad I chose to limit this
workaround to experimental gnustep image yesterday when aen@ suggested
to apply it universally...
Whoops, and I was mildly wondering where are alterator modules...
thanks Speccyfighter again for bringing attention to the issue
which has turned out to be ultimately caused by an overlooked bit
being missing.
The real issue was that regular-tde.iso was discovered to
lack FAT support in alterator-vm (known as #28470); as the
filesystem specific packages are pulled in via rescue lists
let's add it here along with dosfstools.
Thanks Speccyfighter at forum.altlinux.org for spotting this.
As zerg@ noted there's synaptic-kde already; I managed to overlook
that synaptic-usermode still gets into kde4 image as it's put into
base+regular pkglist. Thanks aen@ for spotting.
Quite a few filesystem specific tools and utilities went into extra,
some of them pulled back from fs since the proper categorization will
clearly require even more effort.
Added utilities for: f2fs, nilfs, logfs, reiser4fs, clicfs, cloop,
ocfs2, exofs, zfs, cifs.
This one was just asking to be built for quite a long time;
http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/smartmontools/wiki/LiveCDs
specifically accenting use of smartmontools 6.0 has finally
persuaded me to roll out yet another rescue livecd, that is
on the regular basis.
The reason is to contain the implementation details
within this feature while adding the ability to include
everything it can provide (e.g., for rescue images).
This includes an updated version of 50-fontconfig script
which actually works (the preliminary one attached to #28612
didn't); thanks zerg@ and cow@ for providing the incentive
to introduce it.
Based on m-p-d and installer-feature-kdesktop-fontconfig.
Forum feedback has shown that it's a bit surprising
given the lack of other multimedia applications in
baseline package set; aen@ suggested to leave it out
and hardware support testing requires much more than
that anyways.
The issue is that r8169 is rather broken nowadays while
r8168 tends to work on the same hardware; see also #28473.
Thanks zerg@ for having hinted that it's stage1 modules,
not the root squashfs.
The metapackage was fine, the "only one" additional package
was more or less okay, but there came a dozen more so it's
now reasonable to stash these into a separate pkglist.
...and refactored its use in cinnamon image too;
this isn't a permanent solution though,
slated to move into fonts feature.
Thanks gns@ for suggestion.
There isn't much sense to keep an entirely separate flavour
as deepsolver starts being actually useful and icewm is
a somewhat special flavour for those who know their ways
around Linux plumbing.
It's possible that use/efi/signed target has fired already
at the time when use/efi/shell is invoked; shouldn't clobber
the signed shell with unsigned one.
The various *8168 and friends among kernel modules
have finally been pushed into a designated target
so that RM doesn't have to care which particular
additional ethernet modules are available in this
particular branch and kernel.
Tweak distros as appropriate.
NB: *maybe* this is required by distro/.base either.
acpi_call is used far too often when dealing with the newer
portable x86 hardware, we're better off including it when
it's available.
regular.mk adjusted appropriately.
Richard and Theo would probably roll their eyes at this point
but the unfortunate reality is that wireless hardware is very
much dependent on firmware being explicitly provided; so here
it is.
rtl8192 kernel module added since it's present in t6/branch
at least.
This change mostly concerns with making icewm flavour
the lean one again.
The goal is to widen the dynamic range of regular image features:
icewm is not a desktop thus can bear withouth systemd-logind
even if a bunch of network-managing-media-mounting crap has been
rigged to depend on it, and ALT domain client should be included
in most builds for convenient testing in SMB environments but can
stay out of this minimal and "different" image.
It also receives the "un-def" kernel flavour (3.8.0 as of today)
which might benefit from the more available testing facility too.
Its branding is also simplified, plain syslinux menu is fine;
in similar vein, refind feature is flipped from icewm-only to
all-but-icewm set of images with its state being good enough
as of refind 0.6.7 and mkimage 0.2.7.
mate-default pulls in mate-minimal and both of them
require packages which are also specified in this
pkglist; thus the pkglist should be pruned to avoid
double work and splits like "mate-vfs is dropped
from 1.5 package set, mate-default is adjusted but
the pkglist references the now-missing package".
It happens when there are no separate arch/noarch subrepositories
but everything is dumped into a single directory like in installer
or live-builder environment (at least as of today).
