      doc: assorted updates/fixups · f8a264bb
      Michael Shigorin authored
      doc/archdep.txt was the reason to look closer,
      and some other files needed a bit of facelift
      by now too (would be better to do that in sync).

      style.txt: avoid merge commits! · 97eee80f
      Michael Shigorin authored
      Merge commits aren't going to be merged upstream
      for these break all sorts of git tools including
      log -p, blame, bisect, etc (or make their use less
      convenient).

      style.txt: slightly better call for documenting · 41d2644e
      Michael Shigorin authored
      Sometimes we tend to "just" translate the code to human
      which doesn't really help; what usually helps is noting
      down what the code author intended to implement or fix,
      and what was the case for that.

      These have been proofread somewhat to correspond
      to the current state of affairs; a missing one
      was added for fonts feature.

      minor documentation facelift · eb3df648
      Michael Shigorin authored
      A few more items were asking for some attention.
      
      In particular, build examples should start with
      the most basic, error-proof and quick targets.

      full-view docs update · ddf0c5b7
      Michael Shigorin authored
      - 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      - dropped features.in/00example/README.en: it's already out-of-date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}

      stage2 based live subprofiles, updated docs · f5a8b893
      Michael Shigorin authored
      - 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

      server-ovz; KDEFAULT; syslinux features reworked · 3f012958
      Michael Shigorin authored
      Renamed server-light.iso into server-ovz.iso to avoid brand dilution
      and confusion (rider@'s server-light rather favours kvm, anyways).
      
      Introduced KDEFAULT: a reliable default kernel chooser knob
      since apt's regex ordering proved pretty unreliable.
      Spelling things explicitly is better anyways.
      
      SYSLINUX related features undergone pretty major rewrite
      (that includes syslinux, hdt and memtest).
      
      The problem to tackle was features.in/syslinux/generate.mk
      assuming syslinux and pciids available in build *host* system;
      this well might not be the case (or worse yet, those can be
      just different).  So now we're a bit less elegant and a bit
      more enterprise, stuffing things into chroot and working there.
      
      Bunch of other fixes along the road, including ; to name a few:
      - fixed memtest entry (overlooked while renaming SYSLINUX_ITEMS)
      - new and shiny doc/CodingStyle
      - gfxboot, stage1 target chain, hdt tweaks
      - distro.mk rehashed
      - README++
      - TODO: dropped (integer overflow anyways)
        + actually moved off-tree to reduce commit spam
      - s,\.config\.mk,distcfg.mk,g
      - doc/profiles.mk.sample: sample ~/.mkimage/profiles.mk
      - ...and assorted fixups/additions
      
      Sorry for convoluted commit, this would have been pretty hard to
      rework into some really readable shape (and you might be interested
      in the original repo's history horrors then, anyways).
