Let's put osec tools into installable packages at least (aiming to shift these into default install probably); these are worthwile addition to sysadmin's toolbox. Thanks dobr@ for bringing this up.

It turns out that regular-rescue.iso lacks sshfs, which is unfortunate (even if it could be installed with apt in this particular case); three more FUSE based filesystems have been added just in case. Thanks mithraen@ for suggesting davfs2.

I'm fed up with graphical software occasionally making it into regular-rescue.iso and bloating it for no good reason given that window managers or xinitrc aren't included.

This has been spotted and solved manually several times already, and that's just boring so let's add the ability to state that X11-based software is not accepted into a particular rescue image. Not that I would hate X but things like that belong to a carefully crafted image which includes either X server or reasonable means to ensure that GUI software can actually be used. NB: this is a somewhat new entity: test/rescue/no-x11 knob for an image-script intended to make it blow up the build when libX11 is found within the chroot that makes up the rescue image's filesystem. The interface is not documented intentionally: it will take some time to find out whether it sticks or is bad enough. Please do remind/ask if interested in using that.

It's a pretty hefty addition which isn't strictly required in a basic rescue image even if it's welcome as an extra.

Seeing tagged/base+rescue~ in build.log isn't particularly heart-warming; while other editors but the one leaving tilda marked backups and .sw* swap files might exist let's do this step at this time. Wonder what changed though, this used not to happen before.

Rescue images definitely don't need alterator pulled in.

- support for CIFS installation method (sin@) - glibc-locales for regular images (closes: #29693)
-
Michael Shigorin authored
At least regular images should include locale support, various software and users might malfunction otherwise; thanks manowar@ for spotting and reporting this (#29693): http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/sisyphus/2014-January/361929.html

It's a tad pointless to be able to create a filesystem but not to be able to fsck it at boot.

Dank Bagryantsev asked if it could be added to available packages at least; well it is there now but not in default install as aptitude is currently unsupported.

At least lspci was sorely missing in non-rescue images (as well as in mini rescue part of server image); thanks Dank Bagryantsev for pointing this out: http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/community/2013-December/681223.html

This is pretty valuable addition and doesn't take that much space (roughly +100M).

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.

Another fork place: live branch used to depend on +vmguest, installable one omitted that for some reason.

Suddenly got lots of extra space to wa^H^Hfill due to led-ws thus a few more FRs by Speccyfighter can go in ;-)

This kernel can help save almost 50 megabytes of image size and shave off several megs of RAM consumption as well which is important after the installation has been through.

Adding rescue image was requested by Speccyfighter (in Russian): http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/community/2013-December/681045.html ...and it seems hard but doable if one doesn't mind barebone rescue; still efi-shell shouldn't spoil x86_64 build as that one won't fit CD-R and doesn't have to anyways.
-
Michael Shigorin authored
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.

Argh, so alterator-auth was hiding under a name it provides too -- now *that* is the cause for those last-step failures as the rest of the environment hasn't been getting set up apparently. Just drop it, there's a proper domain-client pkglist for that. This is what 63293ff2 should have done too.

...so that it hits regular-sysv-tde (and other installers) too.

Michael Shigorin authored
un-def got unsuitable due to initial ramdisk migrating from initramfs to tmpfs by default in newer kernels, and propagator was using pretty kludgy way to determine that /dev has been mounted already; led-ws (and supposedly lks-wks) have stumbled upon this earlier. 20130822 version has been fixed regarding that.

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

...instead of installer-distro-desktop which pulls in alterator-auth which breaks things big time for sysv-tde installer image due to avahi-daemon lazy to run. Of course it's the last step of installation that has to fail. And I've been considering this for several months already anyways.

I wondered how regular-e18 lacked econnman but it only took a closer look to understand that it's just not told to go in, plain and simple! There are no e18-extra-modules (at least so far), confine that to desktop+e17.

Thanks zerg@, it's been one of the things asked for. Should end up in kde4-regular dependencies if OK.

Thanks sem@ for implementing and announcing wrt Simply 7.0.2.

It's at least as worthy as sbsigntools are.

It's proprietary now but still very useful with no free software alternatives for UEFI platform so far; let's include efi-memtest86 into the rescue image at least.
-
Michael Shigorin authored
It's implemented just like EFI_SHELL and will definitely change someday but so far it's like this...

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.
