New: [rhinstaller/lorax/pulls/55 master] Reduce the size of macboot.img (#952747)
by dashea 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

The size estimate was counting the /EFI/BOOT/ contents twice and then doubling that. Only count things once, then double it for the System/Library/CoreServices/ copy. hard-links don't work. With CoreServices hardlinked to /EFI/BOOT/ the Mac won't boot. With /EFI/BOOT/ hardlinked to CoreServices grub2 cannot read the config file so there are 2 real copies. This reduces the image size from 21M to about 12M -- To view this pull request on github, visit https://github.com/rhinstaller/lorax/pull/55

Updated: [rhinstaller/blivet/pulls/233 master] Try to make EDD support actually recognize things other than by the MBR matching...
by dashea 05 Oct '15

05 Oct '15

Basically the parser for ATA will kind of work with SCSI if lun==0, but it won't work with SATA or ATA at all, and the parser we had for SCSI will only work with virtio. So in the past we nearly always match things based on MBR signature, which is pretty awful. This patch separates those all out by which kernel driver is actually providing the sysfs devices, and tries to match the EDD fields up with how they're actually provided by the kernel.

New: [rhinstaller/lorax/pulls/54 rhel7-branch] livemedia-creator: Also generate an iPXE config
by dashea 02 Oct '15

02 Oct '15

Currently lmc has some ad-hoc code to generate a `PXE_CONFIG`. In practice we should probably split this out somehow, as in reality downstream users need to edit it. So it should be more explicitly a template. That aside, it turns out there's also iPXE which in addition to having the critical `i` prefix, supports http and variable substitution in the config file itself. This makes it a lot more convenient to use - downstream users can more easily edit the `set base-url` and have things work, it's easy to put an iPXE config into a pastebin etc. -- To view this pull request on github, visit https://github.com/rhinstaller/lorax/pull/54

[anaconda][rhel7-branch][PATCH] Leave the titlebar blank (if any)
by Martin Kolman 02 Oct '15

02 Oct '15

Since 1231856 has been fixed we no longer run the Anaconda window in fullscreen. This has the side effect of showing the titlebar unless disabled by a configuration hack in the window manager. This works for Anaconda running in the installation environment but Initial Setup, which is running after the installation on the installed system still has the titlebar with the ugly "__init__.py" default text. The patch sets the titlebar text to "", so while the titlebar will still be there in Initial Setup, it at least won't have the ugly default text text. BTW, I thin that also any attempt to run the Anaconda GUI manually, such as for image building, will also result in the ugly titlebar text. So the patch should also help for this use case.

New: [rhinstaller/anaconda/pulls/383 master] don't delete shared/boot parts in deleteAll (#1183880)
by dashea 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

This is one potential approach to help with #1183880 . It changes the deleteAll behaviour as follows: * Partitions known to be shared with other OSes won't be deleted * Boot partitions won't be deleted if there are unknown parts You can delete these partitions only by specifically targeting them. It also adds a variant of the ConfirmDeleteDialog for boot partitions, with text specifically explaining that they might be needed for other OSes to boot. This is my alternative to #377 - I'm just providing it as an option. We could pull the ConfirmDeleteDialog change out of this as a standalone to go along with dlehman's minimal change to the 'delete other partitions' text, also? -- To view this pull request on github, visit https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/383
