      syslinux: *.cfg tweaks · dbed41bf
      Michael Shigorin authored
      - parameter order fixed to "simple first, then those with args"
        and documented as the preferred one (might be debatable, okay)
      - added "lowmem" to live so it avoids a ramdisk but works off media
        (it's a knob for propagator)
      - added "fastboot" everywhere (but failsafe install) to make use
        of Linux 2.6.29+ async controller initialization
      - every snippet got a trailing newline so that isolinux.cfg is readable
      
      And a fancy makefile to check for shortcut dups!

      server-ovz; KDEFAULT; syslinux features reworked · 3f012958
      Michael Shigorin authored
      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).

      initial logging subsystem · d93989a3
      Michael Shigorin authored
      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
