use/rescue need for alt-workstation. But sdab.cfg is not needed. See also: https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/40704

The commit 99695713 used this variable even though it didn't exist yet. A good reason to add this variable.

There are two different versions of the script with the same name for different subprofiles, sharing some of the same bugs over the years, *sigh*. Shoving those into stage2 would yield online repositories enabled there too which *might* be wanted but will likely need installer support (at least some better error handling, the current culprit with unavailable repositories being apt-pkg's size estimation). Fixes: d2f892ab Fixes: 0f4ee98f

Repositories are signed with different keys. In addition, they may not have a signature.

The places of the terms *do* affect the sum in apt's case; start with lowlevel items like SYSTEM_PACKAGES and end with high-level ones like THE_LISTS to reduce the chance of getting hit by premature virtual dependency expansion/fixation. Adapt live and rescue features accordingly. See-also: https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30806#c5Suggested-by:

It's not a blocker if enabling online repos fails; we should provide a better handling of warnings with e.g. a summary of those after build.

Apparently DH SHA1 key exchange algorithm is still in wide use at least within Cisco products (there's a real world case involving our user), and some still use DSA keys which might be longer than "allowed" yet not trusted anymore.

The added initscript used to be purged by 98-init-rescue which has been somewhat overlooked during vain attempts to build an image that would actually run it!

It's by no means substitution for proper l10n feature but forcing users into POSIX locale for recovery ops is no good at all. This is basically a fork of live feature's 20-locale, a font has been changed to save some face though.

It's required for NFS mounts but having a rescue image listening to any non-localhost ports is too bad an idea, IMNSHO. So let's fix this while spotted.

This has been spotted and solved manually several times already, and that's just boring so let's add the ability to state that X11-based software is not accepted into a particular rescue image. Not that I would hate X but things like that belong to a carefully crafted image which includes either X server or reasonable means to ensure that GUI software can actually be used. NB: this is a somewhat new entity: test/rescue/no-x11 knob for an image-script intended to make it blow up the build when libX11 is found within the chroot that makes up the rescue image's filesystem. The interface is not documented intentionally: it will take some time to find out whether it sticks or is bad enough. Please do remind/ask if interested in using that.

At least lspci was sorely missing in non-rescue images (as well as in mini rescue part of server image); thanks Dank Bagryantsev for pointing this out: http://lists.altlinux.org/pipermail/community/2013-December/681223.html

In these tough times there are no extra resources to waste for wars or some extra rescue; so it is imperative to provide some lean and mean help, you know. IOW a common base has been split out and a more tight rescue image configuration has been added on top of that so as to try and fit altlinux-p7-sysv-tde.iso for i586 into CD-R.

The changes in commits gb3e3234c and ga860b179 were actually useless as rescue+fs list wasn't included into RESCUE_LISTS... and I need pv(1) for convenient local disk cloning with time estimate.

Networking is *not* brought up by these rescue images by default, one is expected to know enough to do that by hand if needed; still there's no harm to have apt preconfigured so that it would be operational then.

systemd would get pulled in via journal but both are really irrelevant for these rescue images.

There are various bootloaders around there and some of them are supported in ALT Linux; let's provide all the mainstream ones so that knowledgeable root@ has every tool needed for most situations needing bootloader repairs. These might require particular knowledge or special boot mode (like EFI ones).

Being able to handle [compressed] archives of all kinds tends to be pretty instrumental in rescue operations, and some backup system clients won't hurt either. Some ancient Serial words like "minicom" still come handy at times too. Comments, constructive criticism and proposals are welcome.

Moved the packages which impeded pkglist reuse for live distros so that these stay within dedicated rescue images but don't neccessarily go into the more generic ones where things like fdisk are still quite useful.

There's a need for a separate boot target since persistent storage is way slower than tmpfs indeed; usbflash has a tendency for huge performance drops given simultaneous writes in addition to reads which are the bottleneck already. make-initrd-propagator 0.18 introduced ext4 rw slice, so the corresponding kernel module needs to be included into stage1; see also #28289. NB: not available on x86_64-efi (or hybrid GPT to be strict) due to fragility of the hack being made: parted(8) panics upon seeing that, and good ol' fdisk is unable to treat it. NB: use/live/rw use/rescue/rx use/syslinux/ui/gfxboot are unlikely to play very nice together due to the latter's magic l10n: "session" label is taken by live_rw config snippet and *is* translated in design-bootloader-source; OTOH "rescue_session" is *not*.

Richard and Theo would probably roll their eyes at this point but the unfortunate reality is that wireless hardware is very much dependent on firmware being explicitly provided; so here it is. rtl8192 kernel module added since it's present in t6/branch at least.

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.

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@.
