2020-06-08hurd-boot: Further cleanup of "rc".Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen
* gnu/packages/hurd.scm (hurd-rc-script): Move implementation to ... * gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (boot-hurd-system): ...here, new file. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (make-hurd-device-nodes): Move there likewise. * gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.
2020-06-08image: 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.
2020-05-29image: Do not use VM to create disk-images.Mathieu Othacehe
Now that installing Grub on raw disk-images is supported, we do not need to rely on (gnu system vm) module. * gnu/system/image.scm (make-system-image): Rename to ... (system-image): ... this, and remove the compatibility wrapper. (find-image): Turn to a monadic procedure. This will become useful when introducing Hurd support, to be able to detect the target system. * gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Use lower-object now that system-image returns a file-like object. * gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto. * guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add a 'base-image' argument, (perform-action): adapt accordingly.
2020-05-29image: Add a post-MBR gap to the default image.Mathieu Othacehe
The generic 'efi-disk-image' needs to be bootable on systems without EFI. To do that, GRUB is installed in the post-MBR gap. Make sure that the first partition starts with an offset, to make this gap large enough for GRUB. * gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): New variables, (esp-partition): use 'root-offset' as the partition offset, (root-partition): use 'root-label' as the partition label.
2020-05-29system: image: Fix image-with-os.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-os): Do not reorder partitions, as we want them to be created according to definition order.
2020-05-29image: 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.
2020-05-29system: image: Correct genimage configuration file indentation.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Fix genimage configuration file indentation.
2020-05-29image: 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.
2020-05-29bootloader: Add 'disk-image-installer'.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader>)[disk-image-installer]: New field, (bootloader-disk-image-installer): export it. * gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub-disk-image): New procedure ... (grub-bootloader): ... used as "disk-image-installer" here. (grub-efi-bootloader): set "disk-image-installer" to #f. * gnu/system/image.scm (root-partition?, find-root-partition): Move to "Helpers" section. (root-partition-index): New procedure. (system-disk-image): Honor disk-image-installer, and use it to install the bootloader directly on the disk-image, if supported.
2020-05-26image: 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.
2020-05-26image: Set offset default to zero.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/image.scm (<partition>)[offset]: Set to zero by default. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt accordingly.
2020-05-26system: image: Fix disk-image cross-compilation.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Use the native version of the helper packages (e2fsprogs, dosfstools, mtools, genimage, coreutils and findutils).
2020-05-26image: Add partition offset support.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/image.scm (partition-offset): New procedure, (<partition>)[offset]: new field. * gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Apply the partition offset.
2020-05-05image: 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.
