more updates to TODO list. hopefully we'll soon start removing items instead |
9 |
of adding them. |
10 |
|
11 |
29 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
12 |
Changed the way GLIStorageDevice.get_max_sectors_for_resize() works |
13 |
|
14 |
27 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
15 |
updated TODO list. (again) |
16 |
|
17 |
25 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
18 |
changed output of portmap start to display_on_tty8. |
19 |
fixed bootloader for udev and multiple kernels |
20 |
fixed custom kernel config (again) |
21 |
|
22 |
22 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
23 |
changed default value of CC._enable_ssh to True because this is smart. |
24 |
added code to allow custom kernel .config. may be unstable and break. sorry. |
25 |
|
26 |
21 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
27 |
partition() now waits until after it checks for partition flags before delete |
28 |
the partitions :P |
29 |
|
30 |
19 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
31 |
Updated TODO. swapon failure it temporarily not an error. swapon is an error |
32 |
again. is_uri() check only performed on portage_tree_snapshot_uri if it isn't |
33 |
blank. |
34 |
|
35 |
19 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
36 |
Various fixes related to the add_users function. Still not yet finished. |
37 |
Added things to the TODO list. Lets start using that! |
38 |
|
39 |
18 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
40 |
Added code to x86Template to format newly created partitions. Also added |
41 |
some error checking code. GLIStorageDevice passes 'minor' with data to |
42 |
InstallProfile. Added partition() call back in ArchTemplate. Fixed NFS |
43 |
mounting code. |
44 |
|
45 |
18 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
46 |
Took out unnecessary setting of random livecd root password. the cd already |
47 |
sets it randomly. |
48 |
|
49 |
15 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
50 |
Took out an unneeded step from CC's run() |
51 |
|
52 |
15 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
53 |
Attempt at detecting and adding windows partitions to lilo. |
54 |
|
55 |
14 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
56 |
Added lilo code and cleaned up lilo code. also do_partitioning renamed to |
57 |
partition. fixed misc exit_status => exitstatus typo. |
58 |
|
59 |
11 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
60 |
Added basic code for resizing filesystems with pyparted. Fixed code for |
61 |
resizing ntfs and ext2/3. |
62 |
|
63 |
10 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
64 |
Fixed partition() in x86Template so that it scans through logicals and deletes |
65 |
before deleting containing extended partition. Also clears partition table to |
66 |
be safe before third pass. |
67 |
|
68 |
08 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
69 |
Added mount_network_shares. not able to test it from this computer. |
70 |
will test when i get back to school. |
71 |
also added start_portmap to the client_controller as an always-do. |
72 |
agaffney says this is needed for NFS mounts to work. |
73 |
|
74 |
08 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
75 |
Partial rewrite of partitioning code in x86Template. No longer shells out to |
76 |
parted to perform actions, now uses all pyparted calls. Code "works" in a |
77 |
test, but still needs lots of TLC. Also modified tests/install.py to work |
78 |
with x86Template and GLIClientConfiguration. |
79 |
|
80 |
07 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
81 |
Initial move of partitioning code from ArchTemplate to x86Template. |
82 |
|
83 |
07 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
84 |
Added grp_install and services to InstallProfile. forgot about the set_root_password |
85 |
|
86 |
07 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
87 |
Fixed a few more edit_configs. fixed a chroot multicommand bug thanks to agaffney. |
88 |
Test Install ran very well (skipping partitioning). |
89 |
|
90 |
05 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
91 |
My mid-day update. rewrote mount_local_partitions for order of mounting. fixed prepare_chroot |
92 |
rewrote configure_fstab and install_bootloader for new partition format. fixed a few _edit_configs. |
93 |
some may still have eluded me. |
94 |
|
95 |
05 Jan 2005; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
96 |
Overhauled the entire ArchTemplate and did a lot of other misc fixes in order to test it. |
97 |
Just finished mount_local_partitions in GLIArchitectureTemplate |
98 |
|
99 |
05 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
100 |
Added get_num_sectors() to GLIStorageDevice. |
101 |
|
102 |
04 Jan 2005; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
103 |
GLIStorageDevice now tracks partition boundaries in sectors instead of cylinders. |
104 |
Also now ignores <=100 sectors for free space. Removed remaining depends stuff |
105 |
from GLIInstallProfile. |
106 |
|
107 |
20 Dec 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
108 |
GLIStorageDevice returns "unknown" instead of "" for get_type() |
109 |
|
110 |
19 Dec 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
111 |
Added get_extended_partition() to GLIStorageDevice. Rewrote get_logicals() to |
112 |
actually work. Commented out resizability checking code for speed. |
113 |
|
114 |
17 Dec 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
115 |
Switched to using dumpe2fs to determine free space left in ext2/3 filesystem in |
116 |
GLIStorageDevice at the suggestion of plors |
117 |
|
118 |
10 Dec 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
119 |
Added a function to GLIUtility to pull a value from a make.conf-style config |
120 |
file. Minor type fix to GLIInstallProfile.py |
121 |
|
122 |
09 Dec 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
123 |
Added code in GLIArchitectureTemplate.py to write netmounts into fstab. Separated |
124 |
network mounts from partition data structure in GLIInstallProfile |
125 |
|
126 |
27 Nov 2004; Andrew Gaffney <agaffney@gentoo.org> |
127 |
Changed the way GLIStorageDevice.py determines the amount a ext2/3 filesystem |
128 |
can be resized. |
129 |
|
130 |
27 Oct 2004; Preston Cody <codeman@gentoo.org> |
131 |
Added some of the final functions to GLIInstallTemplate. |
132 |
Yes this project is still active despite rare use of the Changelog! |
133 |
|
134 |
11 Jun 2004; Nathaniel McCallum <npmccallum@gentoo.org> |
135 |
Added the GLIPartitionTools.py file. This is a temporary insertion of |
136 |
partitioning tools that will eventually go into their own package. |
137 |
|
138 |
27 Mar 2004; Nathaniel McCallum <npmccallum@gentoo.org> |
139 |
Added InstallProfileTODO.txt. Added GLIClientConfiguration.py (contains run-time |
140 |
for the program). Added __init__(install_profile, client_configuration) to |
141 |
GLI.InstallProfile. This sets install_profile and client_configuration once so as |
142 |
to avoid constantly passing stuff every time we call a method. |
143 |
|
144 |
26 Mar 2004; Nathaniel McCallum <npmccallum@gentoo.org> |
145 |
|
146 |
Added another private method to GLI.InstallTemplate. _edit_config() modifies config |
147 |
files without messing up all the other stuff in them. This will be used for making |
148 |
changes to make.conf, rc.conf, /etc/conf.d/net, etc... |
149 |
|
150 |
25 Mar 2004; Nathaniel McCallum <npmccallum@gentoo.org> |
151 |
|
152 |
Added GLI.InstallTemplate framework. This is not yet functional. However, it does |
153 |
have a few basic things. I added two private methods. One is _depends(). This |
154 |
will be used for dependency checking (ie. unpacking a tarball requires that |
155 |
partitioning has been done). The other is _exec_in_chroot(). This is the exact |
156 |
same syntax as os.system(), however, instead of being run in the liveCD |
157 |
environment, it runs in the chroot. This requires a bit of fork() magic, so I |
158 |
isolated the code. Hope to work more this week to get this class formed... |
159 |
|
160 |
14 Feb 2004; Eric Sammer <esammer@gentoo.org> |
161 |
|
162 |
Added SAX parsing. Made GLI.InstallProfile a subclass of xml.sax.ContentHandler for |
163 |
obvious reasons. Switched kernel_modules and users to be lists instead of tuples |
164 |
to allow for easier modification (mutable, rather than immutable objects). Updated |
165 |
existing pydoc and added more. Implemented body of GLI.InstallProfile.parse(). |
166 |
Cleaned file format of GLI.py a bit. Fixed all accessors to use self references. |
167 |
Added initial unit test code. |
168 |
|
169 |
9 Feb 2004; Eric Sammer <esammer@gentoo.org> |
170 |
|
171 |
Added initial changelog. Setting up the basic structure of the CVS repository |
172 |
for the project. Added the UML class diagram in docs. Added a skeletal GLI |
173 |
python module. Added misc files such news, authors, etc. |
