- better *_LISTS printout
- somewhat cleaner .base comments
- more comprehensible git log messages
  + special handling for complex subprofiles
  + no need to commit build.log ;-)

dst a shell variable in a makefile recipe,
its dereference must be escaped properly;
the net result was false positive for the test
with no harm being done but extra stuff tossed
into the generated profile

These were broken since 5ff375aa10bee7937db457d3df3115f938bb6c77
due to no bootloader being tossed anymore by the very
installer-distro-altlinux-generic (which is the default)

squashcfk.mk is not to be attempted to copy unconditionally,
if we've got no kernel for stage2 there's no data (and hook)
to create it there

- 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

NB: this implementation is awfully cut-n-paste one,
there are lots of common code with install2
which are subject to careful surgery

s,INSTALLER_KFLAVOUR,STAGE1_KFLAVOUR,g
s,INSTALLER_KMODULES,STAGE1_KMODULES,g

install2 isn't the only livecd around;
so far all of these share the same kernel
in m-p-d, and we'd rather need two+ kernels
with dual-arch media or so; let's not complicate
things too much at this point

make CLEAN=1 will prune workdirs after packing their results,
so disk (or preferably tmpfs) usage will be lower

NB: needs installer-distro-altlinux-generic = 6.0-alt2
    as it doesn't require alterator-grub indefinitely

This one is pre-alpha quality and very basic but complete enough
to crank out an icewm.iso successfully installing and booting
into xdm ;-)

(actually a week's on-and-off work including a pile of
underlying infrastructure stuff which was planned already
just not there yet)

I hereby release this work under the terms of GNU General Public License,
either version 2 or a later version at your option.

The code is either taken from mkimage-profiles-desktop.git (available
under GPLv2+) or written by me with some exceptions in the form of:
- snippets from GNU make documentation;
- stackoverflow.com and cmcrossroads.com articles;
- random advice on the 'net
to be strict; given the nature of such snippets being explicitly
proposed as an example or for immediate reuse, I consider it feasible
to redistribute those worked into this code.  If there's any concern
regarding copyright, please contact me by e-mail to sort it out.

In particular:
- .base is now generated from pieces (see image.in/Makefile)
- s/DISTROS/IMAGES/g; s/CONFIGS/DISTROS/g (for clarity)
- s/DISK_LISTS/MAIN_LISTS/g ("disk" was early m-p-d legacy)
- introduced BASE_PACKAGES to complement BASE_LISTS
- minor tweaks to Makefile (ARCH and DATE moved elsewhere)
- libdistro.mk: dropped overlooked IMAGE_INIT_LIST copy
- clean.mk: silly cleanup

installer-distro-server-light (using installer-feature-vm-server-light)
is specifically tuned for Server Light needs, and in general we have
different ones (regarding installer steps, autopartitioning profile,
configured services, etc).  So here's the replacement.

reword 'em, structurize 'em, facelift 'em too

This feature should absorb ha^Wmeasures for keeping install2
memory footprint to minimum, and so far it drops things not
critical for ru/uk/be users on the floor.

Should be ported to a l10n support framework when there's one.

We have several categories of overhead data:
- legacy 8-bit fonts, locales and gconv modules;
- illegible fonts (e.g. 5x7 or 6x10);
- obsolete vendor specific stuff;
- CJK (which would require proper support anyways).

Notes:
- JIS and things like VISCII are 8-bit either
  and thus might be reconsidered as "legacy";
- proper CJK support would probably include
  scalable fonts and an input method helper;
- main target audience is rather ru/uk/be by now.

(dropped wireless from install2 either)

A bit earlier the situation where there was a stage1 fallback
for INSTALLER_KFLAVOUR as the last of KFLAVOURS, so we'd have
an installer kernel or build would break; now the situration
got somewhat twisted: there could be a vmlinuz in stage1 but
no corresponding modules in install2 -- which can lead to
different surprises but at least alterator-vm would complain
about "Operation not permitted" on partition layout commit.

The fallback is a copypaste from sub.in/stage1/Makefile though
and should be redone properly somewhere.  The question so far
is, where exactly?

...including hasher note, thx m-p-d.

All the three scripts depend on installer kernel presence in fact.
When live/rescue are in place, these should be adjusted correspondingly,
probably by moving them to some commonly used intermediate place.

Changed stage1 banner too.

...and switch syslinux.iso over to it: syslinux-3.86-alt4's
(actually opensuse's) gfxboot hackery doesn't properly init
video mode so memdisk-started freedos has console troubles
(and yesterday's hdt.c32 hassles could be avoided as well
it seems).  And that's being implemented.

Mid-term plan: try switching to syslinux4.

PS: CLI fallback was actually a bug in hdt from syslinux <= 3.86-alt3

This was pulled from mkimage-profiles-desktop as is,
and so far is useless (addons, ltsp are out of scope yet).

When reintroduced, it'd better be done as a separate script.

This looks a bit weird (two subprofiles become a bit more
tightly coupled) but in fact install2 does depend on stage1,
and if stage1 doesn't create squashcfg.mk then install2 is
just fine with defaults (provided they fit the installer kernel
used).  A proper mkimage test infrastructure might be handy though.

Also there:
- 01-initfs: partial cleanup (bootsplash is obsolete anyways)
- regarding 03-test-kernel's errorlevel test:
  if 0, 1 and 2 need to be distinguished, "!" MUST NOT be used
  as it negates so that 0 becomes 1 and the rest becomes 0

The problem rarely manifested itself on 8-way server
in the form of attempt to copy ./syslinux while it
wasn't there yet.  The proper fix should include
interdependencies but this kluge works either;
didn't observe this with other subprofiles.

It would handle regular expressions but choke with
multiple words per line, ouch!

Thanks go to lakostis@ (see #18047) for all the aic94xx reminders
and the final testing of the proposed image.

...and some more cosmetic fixes

- image.in/functions.mk: rework kpackage()
  + it takes two arguments explicitly now: this adds some noise
    for "generic" invocations but is rather less messy with recently
    introduced STAGE1_KFLAVOUR (which in its turn is rather cleaner
    than messing with KFLAVOURS, especially since soemthing changed
    in presumably apt and we can't rely on kernel packages being
    installed in the order formed).
- BUILDDIR/DEBUG related fixes
  + Makefile: BUILDDIR initialization moved to distro.mk
- build.log += git info

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).

Now we don't dump all the gory details onto thee
but rather log them handsomely and present only
the most important details by default; use DEBUG=1
and/or BUILDLOG=/path/to/file to tweak.

Also introduced IMAGEDIR and IMAGENAME.

The rest:
- ovz-smp is no more
- base-l10n pkglist (suggested by Alexander Kuprin)
- clean.mk:
  + fixed an oversight: the test result erroneously applied
    only to the first command of several ones that should be
    run iff build/ is a symlink
  + drop implicit rules (it's no C code)
- Makefile: more reasonable iso names
- image.in/Makefile: .disk/date too

- README: concept++
- pkg.in/README: converted to utf8

- more thorough build stages inline doc
- quieter BUILDDIR instantiation
- branding-altlinux-sisyphus by default
- prettify installer selection somewhat
- mkimage #24669 fixed upstream
- sub.in/stage1/modules: +drm (as in m-p-d, for KMS)
- tags2lists: generalize a bit

- drop hardwired kernel flavour from pkglists
- today's std-ng lacks aufs, let's switch to un-def
- second assault at KERNEL_PACKAGES_REGEXP
- re-introduced kpackages (builds ok)

PS: base lists: switch to grub, add udev, cleanup

tags2lists was tweaked to work on the more natural word boundaries
than explicit "_", and the lists were renamed accordingly.

Dropped the borrowed pkglists by the way.

A major change in approach largely thanks to discussions
with Alexey Cheusov but also well aligned with my own findings:
autoconf doesn't let the variables to form an inheritance.

And data flow described at http://www.altlinux.org/WhiteLabel
(which in its turn was born thanks to Gavin Henrick of Diva Telecom
and to Alexander Bokovoy of SaM-Solutions) is really dependent on
the existence of such an inheritance.

Also:
- distro.mk += try()
- "hide" special targets
- fixed wrt distro/.{base,init,metaconf}, thx gns@
- README updates
  + added metaconf.mk
  + clarifications
- updated pci.ids location for hdt

ToC:
- introduced doc/
- features.in/00example/
- READMEs and TODO for more
- code comments clarified

Some unrelated minor fixes bundled either.

Also included:
- reworked syslinux feature inclusion
- syslinux: s/textprompt/prompt/
- README++

...along with obituary fixes.

- get rid of $dest
- work on features.in/syslinux
- README++

It wasn't serving any good by now...
README++ and cleanups all over the place
