2020-12-11Revert "services: openssh: Warn about 'password-authentication?' default."Ludovic Courtès
This reverts commit aecd2a13cbd8301d0fdeafcacbf69e12cc3f6138 for two reasons: 1. The warning would fire every time (gnu services ssh) is loaded; 2. There's still no clear consensus on the approach to follow as discussed in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44808>.

2020-09-02installer: Run the installation inside a container.Mathieu Othacehe
When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the underlying install support from being umounted. See: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html. To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container, and run the installation from within that container. * gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure. * gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID argument passed to the "start" method.

2020-08-06installer: Remove logical devices.Mathieu Othacehe

Make sure to deactivate all logical volumes before device probing. Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/42683>. * gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add lvm2-static to the inputs. * gnu/installer/parted.scm (remove-logical-devices): New procedure, (init-parted): call it.
2020-07-26installer: Add NTFS support.Mathieu Othacehe
This adds support for creating and editing NTFS partitions. It is however not possible yet to create root NTFS partitions, as overlaying on top of a fuse partition does not seem supported. * gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add "ntfs-3g" to the inputs. * gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-fs-type-name, user-fs-type->mount-type, partition-filesystem-user-type, create-ntfs-file-system, format-user-partitions): Add NTFS support. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-fs-type-page): Add NTFS support.

2020-06-09installer: utils: Dump command output to syslog when testing.Mathieu Othacehe
When debugging the installation tests, it can be very handy to be able to read "run-command" output, for instance when executing "guix system init". Introduce a new "invoke-with-log" procedure that is able to log a command standard and error outputs to the syslog. Use it, only when running the installation tests, to dump "run-command" output. * gnu/installer/utils.scm (open-pipe-with-stderr, invoke-with-log): New procedures, (invoke-log-port): new variable, (run-command): move to the end of the file and use invoke-with-log when running the installation tests.

Modify run-command to take this into account. Reported by Alex Sassmannshausen here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-04/msg00192.html. * gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-command): Handle locale without territory such as "epo".
