There's no use of a rescue image when it has no firmware for the controller in the system being worked on... so added some.

That sub/stage2/install2 was somewhat clumsy actually as it looked like a hierarchical thing while being a substitution thing: generic stage2 would get put in place renamed as install2. This could only get worse with hierarchical features which have already been both requested and considered for quite a time, and "stage2 at install2" reads much more naturally.

There's no (convenient) "eject" at times, so it's better to provide extra ways of booting right away.

Found myself pretty silly while sittin' at the rescue console and bein' unable to leave the cool server room for a way more comfortable armchair and a laptop's keyboard... (yes, it was that disk array needing GPT tools)

The reason is that package lists and individual packages are processed in different dependency resolution "transactions" by mkimage; thus if packages (the more precise form of specifying the contents) come first they can't override the lists appearing later, and that's wrong: we should be able to specify the more generic things and then pinpoint the specifics. This became apparent while authoring [[Mkimage/Profiles/m-p/howto]] asked for by drool@.

New stuff: * distro/live-icewm -- basic icewm livecd with autologin; * distro/live-rescue -- yet another gparted^Wrescue CD. A better part of base+rescue tagged pkglist split off into extra+rescue where the content belongs. Thanks ruslandh@ for proposing to do a graphical rescue with some particular tools (albeit qt4-fsarchiver clearly needs more work).

The features might get copy-pasted (or even copied-and-pruned) when initialized; there's an unneccessary duplication of the function name in the line adding it to FEATURES list, thus prone to being forgotten and causing some havoc later on. It was wrong in the first place but tackling this with some double-colon rules ran into terminality issues, and further tortures were considered unneccessary. The current solution isn't perfect (no completely transparent function name registration upon corresponding target being called) but at least it is an improvement...

Employed double colon targets to eliminate warning: ignoring old commands for target `debug'

install2 cleanups: - functionally indifferent ones: particularly, install2/*/98system's "mkdir -p /image" was superfluous as it was done by that time already by sub.in/stage2/image-scripts.d/00stage1 - taken apart, prepared for tags: so far it's a mostly moot change since the installer cleanup scripts themselves are mostly the same as preceding 90cleanup was (with some additions corresponding to recent kernel development); it's still unclear what the mechanism for configuring the cleanups in effect will be, either directory/package regex lists or tagged scripts excluded from execution by yet another tag fixes: - image.in/Makefile: fix metadata related test; the actual test was assuming that stage1 kernel means installer, which is not the case since generic stage2 introduction; oh well - 85cleanup-lowmem: a "_" too much was the culprit in destroying the needed translations along with those deemed superfluous; thanks go to Oleg Ivanov and Lenar Shakirov for finding the bug and proposing the fix altogether additions: - features.in/Makefile: reworked help target; it was rather inaccessible due to BUILDDIR normally undefined at the time of direct make invocation, and BUILDDIR is normally defined during normal builds anyways so let's try it this way. - README++ daydreams: - 01-genbasedir: we should drop bzip2 compressed pkglists some day but see genbasedir and apt-cdrom first, 90-pkg.sh (alterator-pkg) will fail miserably otherwise

It's still very immature -- base lists should be really base, and functionality should be sorted out in more consistent way. So far moved to tagged lists (which need some more experimentation anyways to get both lists and their use more elegant). - fixed live.iso (now actually useful): + extra cleanup was being done (coming from install2 case) + root user was password blocked + there was no unprivileged user (added "altlinux" w/o password) + added xdm setup hook for future X-based livecd flavours + several picks for a less slim "base" list + xdm login - tweaked rescue.iso (added ext3grep)

- 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
