411 src/GLIInstallProfile.py:
412 Change structure of etc-portage stuff. The serialization was broken before my
413 last commit, and I am the only person that's ever used it. The new schema is
414 as follows:
415 <etc-portage>
416 <file name="package.mask"/>
417 <file name="package.unmask">
418 <entry atom="sys-kernel/openmosix-sources"/>
419 </file>
420 <file name="package.use">
421 <entry atom="sys-libs/db">
422 -java

458 12 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> src/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py:
459 ensure PORTAGE_TMPDIR/PORT_LOGDIR/PORTDIR_OVERLAY/PKGDIR exist prior to any
460 usage - this caused a failure for stage1/stage2 previously. swapoff for swap
461 space at end of install. Mount /dev, /dev/shm, /dev/pts and /sys during
462 prepare_chroot.

473 and should not be touched (netboot for example).
474
475 11 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
476 src/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py:
477 pcmcia is not a variable name for a call to _add_to_runlevel, it should be a
478 string!. Try to use binary packages if available by default.
479
480 11 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
481 src/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py:
482 More error checking for _add_to_runlevel, to ensure that the init script
483 actually exists before we try to add it. set_services phase must take place
484 after the package installation, otherwise the init scripts might not exist.
485 Find the correct init script for the cron and logging daemons, and add that
486 instead of the package atom.
487
488 11 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
489 src/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py:
490 Fix up _edit_config so that it works if the file doesn't already exist. Fix
491 usage of 'file' to 'contents' for the variable name, as it shadows
492 __builtin__.file.
493
494 11 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
495 src/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py:
496 Add MTA install code, and include MTA install phase. Ensure

522 be executable.
523
524 10 Jun 2005; Scott Myron <samyron@gentoo.org>
525 Fixed one of the FIXME's in the ClientConfiguration. There is now some
526 error checking when you call set_architecture_template.
527
528 10 Jun 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
529 moved the mkfsopts input to the partition options menu instead of the during
530 the creation process. updated GenDialog to say it supports reiserfs v3.
531
532 9 Jun 2005; Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org> src/GLIInstallProfile.py,

701 code.
702
703 16 Apr 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>

719 point of logical is now adjusted along with start.
720
721 11 Apr 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
722 Finish overhaul of backend partitioning code. Fixed all bugs that stood in
723 the way of partitioning from a blank disk. Add int() around access to minor

755
756 28 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
757 Added 'append_log=True' to all spawn() calls using logfile=. Append to log
758 when unpacking tarball.
759
760 28 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
761 rewrote filesystem_tools. looks like it works so ripping out all the old

763
764 26 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
765 Changed the print statements to logging in the partitioning BE code.
766 the logger may need to be imported to the x86archtemplate. unknown yet.

768 added a fix to the logger from BenUrban
769
770 25 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
771 changed InstallProfile to remove is_uri check on kernel, stage, and portage
772 URIs. The blank uri check has been commented out.
773 ripped out error checking of set_services. this is done by _add_to_runlevel.
774
775 25 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
776 set_stage_tarball_uri() doesn't raise an exception on a blank string.
777
778 24 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
779 GRP-ish quickpkg code pulls PKGDIR and PORTAGE_TMPDIR from make.conf info in

781
782 23 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
783 small changes to setup_network_post. moved adding to runlevel of net.x to
784 after the device gets symlinked. added domainname runlevel command.
785
786 23 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
787 minor fix (hopefully) to livecd-kernel code. Removed call to mkvardb in
788 livecd-kernel code as it's now done by catalyst. Switch _emerge() call to
789 spawn() call in livecd-kernel code to pass environment variables.
790 livecd-kernel code pulls PKGDIR and PORTAGE_TMPDIR from make.conf info in
791 the install profile if available.
792
793 23 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
794 Added code to build_kernel() and emerge_kernel_sources() in ArchTemplate
795 to handle installing the livecd kernel into the new system.
796
797 22 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
798 should emerge hotplug and coldplug before adding them to runlevel.
799
800 21 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
801 took chroot out of grub_install command.
802
803 21 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
804 Changed chroot wrapper code in spawn() to write the wrapper the python way
805 instead of the bash way to avoid quote conflicts. Added
806 'logfile=self._compile_logfile' to a number of spawn() calls. Added new
807 hash_password() function to GLIUtility. Remove command to 'rm /tmp/spawn.sh'
808 as it breaks the piping.
809
810 20 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
811 Added the amd64ArchitectureTemplate, mostly a copy of x86 without lilo.
812
813 20 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
814 Added _get_packages_to_emerge() to GLIArchitectureTemplate and calls in
815 stage1() and stage2(). Added 'origminor' parameter to GLIStorageDevice and
816 GLIInstallProfile.
817
818 19 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
819 Fixed a couple bugs in add_netmount() in GLIInstallProfile. spawn() outputs
820 to the actual tty8 with display_on_tty8 flag. Compile output logfile moved
821 into /mnt/gentoo in prepare_chroot()
822
823 18 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
824 Add sigunmask.c contributed by d_m (on freenode) to counteract python's
825 retarted behavior regarding threads and signals. Add code to convert MB/%/*
826 to start/end sectors
827
828 17 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
829 Add 2>&1 to cmd in spawn()
830
831 16 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
832 Modified GLIUtility.exitsuccess() to work with return value from
833 commands.getstatusoutput instead of os.waitpid(). spawn() automatically
834 creates wrapper script for commands run inside chroot so multiple commands
835 and redirection can be used. Change exitsuccess() back. Added 'chmod a+x'
836 for the generated script from spawn()
837
838 16 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
839 Removed default values for stage tarball URI and portage tree URI from
840 InstallProfile. These should be set by the FEs. also added services step to
841 ArchTemplate and coldplug/hotplug runlevels to the genkernel step.
842 Possibly fixed CC DHCP bug with -n. (thx agaffney)
843
844 14 Mar 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>

851 Fixed a bunch of true -> True typos. lots of em
852 only write new resolv.conf if there are dns servers listed.
853
854 1 Mar 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org>
855 Commented out 'display_on_tty8=True' in start_portmap()
856
857 18 Feb 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>

877 so that the installer can continue.
878
879 3 Feb 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org>
880 Some big changes. First, changed most output to display_on_tty8.
881 Second, added log lines to all templates. Some smaller fixes such as typos.
882 Also did some cleanups of old commented lines.
