Thanks msp@ for his proposal to provide at least some hints
regarding metadata related variables albeit further RTFM
is much recommended.

cfg.in/README should be explicit regarding
"automatic=method:cdrom" being usable for
flash media too (propagator has been fixed
since 20101130-alt10 or so, and gfxboot is
able to tweak the cmdline having figured
out it's running off the flash either).

It's by no means substitution for proper l10n feature
but forcing users into POSIX locale for recovery ops
is no good at all.

This is basically a fork of live feature's 20-locale,
a font has been changed to save some face though.

This should provide the fix for #30024 (thanks ildar@):
vmware relies on mptspi.ko by default and that's been
split out into scsi and not guest subpackage for led-ws.

BTW use/install2/vmguest instead of a bunch.

Thanks ildar@ for #30024 and specifically mentioning
that mptspi.ko is missing in jeos flavour (using led-ws).

VMware specific bits went into use/install2/vmware target,
and all of those targets are worth their use/install2/vmguest
collective one instead of just sticking the kitchen sink into
use/install2/full immediately.

So as to bring the name bits into harmony with use/install2 ones.

plasma-applet-networkmanager has been superseded by a bunch
of kde4-plasma-nm* packages; only the main one has been included
in regular-kde4 flavour since the switch resulting in the lack of
VPN/mobile connectivity options.

My opinion still is that plasma-applet-networkmanager should be
returned as a metapackage for p7/branch timespan so that images
could be built no matter whether it's sisyphus or p7 at hand.

Oh well.

These plugins should be required by a metapackage providing
plasma-applet-networkmanager so that branch and sisyphus builds
use the same pkglist; let's add those explicitly while that's
not done yet.

Just in case adding use/net-eth -> use/stage2/net-eth dependency
ever seems a good idea...

A minimal chroot supporting extension via apt-get. Looks like the best
start for use with docker-io software.

- net-eth tweaks

No need to require udev-rule-generator-net explicitly here,
it's been factored out into that feature.

This feature intrinsically depends on predictable
ethernet interface names and makes no sense without
those; so it only seems reasonable to bring this
nice package in, huge thanks go to shaba@ of course.

The issue at hand is that we must not reconfigure an interface
that NFS with the rootfs we're running off is mounted over.

This PoC will boot into locale and credentials setup GUI once
and should boot as usual ever since, that is into lightdm
in this case.

There's working use/oem to provide initial setup now too,
default root/user logins are logically conflicting with it
most of the time.

Looks like it might be expected there, why not:

(out-2.ogv)

It's finally packaged!

There's a whole slew of improved dd(1) forks out there
and several more utilities around, some might stick to
this one and others to that one; let's try and make'em
all happy even if it's not really feasible...

It's pretty useful in some cases.

Some of the utilities included might make use of xdg-su indeed,
and that one needs at least one backend like this.

Thanks Aleksander Gorohovski for this list:

Package has been prepared by shaba@ and sem@,
and it looks like ALT Linux with un-def kernel
is one of the few (or just the one) distribution
running on Hyper-V Gen.2 rather flawlessly
thanks to efforts by boyarsh@ and vitty@.

- regular-rescue week

It's pretty limited but still useful for some LSI SAS controllers.

This one relates to serial ports (including USB serial);
thanks dd@ for suggestion.

Suggested by dd@ and pretty reasonable.

That space before ']' was missing indeed :-/

Yes it's been obsoleted but guymager requires X11
and regular-rescue.iso is specifically text-based.

There's a nuance: libaff used to contain the utilities
and is required by sleuthkit; 3.7.4-alt1 has aff-tools
split into a subpackage of its own so we'd better keep
the binaries by adding this one.

This image has got stage2 vaildation in forensic mode,
let's add whole image checksum for good measure.

It's not neccessarily installation media.

Shift boot order so that rescue image can get mediacheck too
but still boot into rescue by default.

As proposed by Maxim Suhanov since there are only
7 loop devices available upon bootup which might be
not enough given ro,loop mounts by default.

This value is used to authenticate rescue rootfs image
by verifying the squashfs file's sha256sum before use
(propagator-20140419+).

Looks like this check might be useful for other stage2
images as well but let's get started with this one.

Thanks Maxim Suhanov <suhanov/group-ib.ru> for both
http://www.forensicswiki.org/wiki/Forensic_Live_CD_issues
and propagator patches.

Found it in yet another TODO at last;
serial console support is requisite.

These are mostly less known ones lurking in Sisyphus;
some of those might go, some might stick.
