drakx/rescue/tree, branch 2.36 Mageia Installer and base platform for many utilities rescue: Move files around and introduce proper dep tracking. 2013-12-07T18:32:06+00:00 Colin Guthrie colin@mageia.org 2013-12-02T23:40:22+00:00 e7aedc3aa7e08f3337c86085c6da10ca83445024 This moves any perl files into bin and sbin folders which will be directly installed in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. This is done such that the extract modes in list.xml still work and the files end up in the right places. All other files have been moved into the tree folder in their final destination.

rescue: add machined (and dbus as a dep) to the rescue. 2013-12-07T18:32:06+00:00 Colin Guthrie colin@mageia.org 2013-12-02T22:28:45+00:00 8faa57a8737a0e1a163fbd91d86065784ea5d44d This allows us to actually mount and run the system inside a container for more advanced debugging. I've successfully booted my systemd, logged in, had a fiddle and then powered it off again. There are some delays and it's requried to umount the /mnt/proc which seems to get automatically mounted before running nspawn. Also audit support has to be turned off in the kernel too to allow a full boot to work properly (otherwise the authentication in the container doesn't work. This is a known problem in the kernel and will be fixed eventually.

rescue: Use systemd as initsystem. 2013-12-07T18:32:06+00:00 Colin Guthrie colin@mageia.org 2013-12-01T22:29:20+00:00 c4634f60b5c6d67eedfedc02166499884e4d6625 This commit converts the rescue system to systemd rather than the legacy sysvinit. Besides being faster, one primary advantage of running systemd here is that we can "boot" the system we're inspecting via systemd-nspawn to properly test it. Note: Bits that don't work: * nspawn * old dracut initqueue udev rules in /etc/ are not cleaned out (drop in support error?) * the gui may loop differently now

Besides being faster, one primary advantage of running systemd here is
that we can "boot" the system we're inspecting via systemd-nspawn
to properly test it.

Note: Bits that don't work:
 * nspawn
 * old dracut initqueue udev rules in /etc/ are not cleaned out (drop in

rescue: Avoid having to run dracut convertfs script by setting up the tree. 2013-12-07T17:16:59+00:00 Colin Guthrie colin@mageia.org 2013-12-01T20:57:39+00:00 645e6932216fddd154865a9bebb0fd0e3beed301 We can easily avoid post processing the tree simply by moving the tree around and ensuring we set it up correctly (with the compat symlinks) early in the process.

install/rescue: Adapt to a dracut based stage1. 2013-10-29T20:29:08+00:00 Colin Guthrie colin@mageia.org 2013-10-19T18:58:09+00:00 49b778dec05a142690bf88ead5649fefe0adc1a6 The main change here is not remounting a fresh /run. Dracut does this for us and we actually need to keep this one as the initial udev database (when udev is started by dracut) is stored here and thus mounting an empty fs could see us lose some metadata. We no longer touch the /bin, /sbin or /lib[64] symlinks as these are already relative symlinks into /usr and simply bind mounting /usr is enough.
