      bootloader: major refactoring · 760c09c3
      Anton Midyukov authored
      Add target use/bootloader/uboot. Das U-Boot -- the Universal Boot
      Loader, used on single board PCs (also in qemu).
      
      Use bootloader lists to provide better portability and to avoid
      overcomplicating bootloader switch.
      
      Added restriction for alterator-$$(BASE_BOOTLOADER)) only for
      ISO images. Since the new uboot bootloader is not supported in
      Alterator and is not used when building ISO images.

      README update · 5b21100b
      Michael Shigorin authored
      These have been proofread somewhat to correspond
      to the current state of affairs; a missing one
      was added for fonts feature.

      full-view docs update · ddf0c5b7
      Michael Shigorin authored
      - toplevel README received some long-needed refactoring
        + lowlevel detail moved, well, to lowlevel READMEs
      - reflected more thoroughly that m-p is not about distros anymore
      - dropped features.in/00example/README.en: it's already out-of-date
        a bit, and there's no perceived need in thorough English docs so far
      - wiki article got split into parts and somewhat rewritten, links updated
      - mv doc/{CodingStyle,style.txt}

      official {distro,ve}/* support · d5a5941f
      Michael Shigorin authored
      This is quite a large-scale change since mkimage-profiles got used to
      baking distributions over the last year, and virtual environments are
      quite different, so e.g. image.in/Makefile had to be split in two with
      the main part of it moved into features.in/iso/lib/.
      
      Short overview:
      
      - features.in/Makefile: lib/ support
        (supporting VE images requires dynamic modifications
        to image.in/Makefile before starting the build;
        the most natural way to achieve that seems to use
        features mechanism along with makefile include dir)
      
      - packaging format related part moved into features.in/pack
        (should be better prepared for diversity either)
      - features.in/iso renamed to features.in/build-distro
      - features.in/ve  renamed to features.in/build-ve
        + NB: these could not be merged as e.g. features.in/build
          due to completely different script hooks
      
      - lib/image.mk renamed to lib/build.mk
      - image, config, log postprocessing moved downstream
      - added a sort of a topping in the form of lib/sugar.mk
      - assorted style fixups (like ifeq usage)
      
      - clean.mk: reliability fix (the problem was observed by Oleg Ivanov
        and me too but finally it did get the attention quantum)
      
      - reviewed, updated and extended docs
        + QUICKSTART: should be[come] a step-by-step guide
          (thanks Leo-sp50 for prodiving feedback)

      Rather minor fixups for things changed in the meanwhile and not
      yet (re)documented properly; and a change for memtest feature
      to require syslinux feature (the code's been changed to fit
      the updated description, actually, and the change is purely
      formal as no syslinux alternative is being used/planned so far).

      rough bootloader selection draft (grub/lilo) · 20844de7
      Michael Shigorin authored
      NB: needs installer-distro-altlinux-generic = 6.0-alt2
          as it doesn't require alterator-grub indefinitely
