2020-11-05	image: Error out when passed an unsupported partition type.	Ludovic Courtès
	* gnu/build/image.scm (make-partition-image): Use 'raise' instead of 'format' when TYPE is not supported. (convert-disk-image): Remove unneeded 'begin'.
2020-09-29	image: Add support for compressed-qcow2 format.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/build/image.scm (convert-disk-image): New procedure. (genimage): Remove target argument. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Add support for 'compressed-qcow2 image format. Call "convert-disk-image" to apply image conversions on the final image. Add "qemu-minimal" to the build inputs. (system-image): Also add support for 'compressed-qcow2.
2020-07-11	image: Do not set journal_model=WAL for the Hurd.	Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen
	This fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42151>. * gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Use #:wal-mode #f in call to ... * gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter, pass it to ... (register-closure): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter, pass it to ... * guix/store/database.scm (with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter, pass it to ... (call-with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter; when set to #f, do not set journal_model=WAL.
2020-06-22	system: image: Remove "image-root" when building raw disk-images.	Mathieu Othacehe
	The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is passed to mke2fs and mkdosfs later on. By merging the creation of this directory and the production of partition images, we can get rid of the derivation. As mke2fs and mkdosfs are not able to override file permissions, call those commands with fakeroot. This way, all the image files will be owned by root, even if image generation is done in an unprivilegded context. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Merge "image-root" and "iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation. Also add "fakeroot" and its runtime dependencies to the inputs. * gnu/build/image.scm (make-ext-image, make-vfat-image): Make sure that mke2fs and mkdosfs are respectively called by fakeroot.
2020-06-18	database: 'register-items' takes an open database.	Ludovic Courtès
	* guix/store/database.scm (store-database-directory) (store-database-file): New procedures. (call-with-database): Add call to 'mkdir-p'. (register-items): Add 'db' parameter and remove #:state-directory and #:schema. (register-path): Use 'store-database-file' and 'with-database', and parameterize SQL-SCHEMA. * gnu/build/image.scm (register-closure): Likewise. * gnu/build/vm.scm (register-closure): Likewise. * guix/scripts/pack.scm (store-database)[build]: Likewise.
2020-06-09	build: image: Do not call make-essential-device-nodes by default.	Mathieu Othacehe
	Calling "mknod" without root permissions fails. Plus those device nodes do not appear to be needed to boot. * gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): Do not use make-essential-device-nodes as default make-device-nodes procedure.
2020-06-08	image: Add Hurd support.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-disk-image): New exported variable, (root-offset, root-label): new variables, (esp-partition, root-partition): adapt accordingly, (find-image): add Hurd support.
2020-05-29	build: image: Fix initialize-efi-partition docstring.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-efi-partition): Turn BOOTLOADER-PACKAGE into GRUB-EFI.
2020-05-29	image: Use grub-efi to install the EFI bootloader.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-efi-partition): Rename bootloader-package argument to grub-efi. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt accordingly to pass grub-efi package.
2020-05-29	image: Add bootloader installation support.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): Add bootloader-package and bootloader-installer arguments. Run the bootloader-installer if defined. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt the partition initializer call accordingly.
2020-05-26	image: Add partition file-system options support.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/image.scm (<partition>)[file-system-options]: New field, (partition-file-system-options): new exported procedure. * gnu/system/image.scm (partition->gexp): Adapt accordingly. * gnu/build/image.scm (sexp->partition): Also adapt accordingly, (make-ext-image): and pass file-system options to mke2fs.
2020-05-26	build: image: Add support for EXT2 and EXT3 file-systems.	Mathieu Othacehe
	* gnu/build/image.scm (make-ext4-image): Rename to ... (make-ext-image): ... it, and pass the file-system type to mke2fs, (make-partition-image): Adapt to call "make-ext-image" if the partition file-system is prefixed by "ext".
2020-05-05	image: Add a new API.	Mathieu Othacehe
	Raw disk-images and ISO9660 images are created in a Qemu virtual machine. This is quite fragile, very slow, and almost unusable without KVM. For all these reasons, add support for host image generation. This implies the use new image generation mechanisms. - Raw disk images: images of partitions are created using tools such as mke2fs and mkdosfs depending on the partition file-system type. The partition images are then assembled into a final image using genimage. - ISO9660 images: the ISO root directory is populated within the store. GNU xorriso is then called on that directory, in the exact same way as this is done in (gnu build vm) module. Those mechanisms are built upon the new (gnu image) module. * gnu/image.scm: New file. * gnu/system/image.scm: New file. * gnu/build/image: New file. * gnu/local.mk: Add them. * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Rename to system-disk-image-in-vm. * gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Adapt to new API. * gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto. * guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Ditto.
