- v5.03.30 released

Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: fixed openSUSE 12.2 boot image description. bootstrap
was only applied to in diskless profile mode. This leed to missing
tools like gettext and dialog for all other profiles even the
default profile

Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file: netboot and isoboot needs virt-utils
additionally does isoboot need e2fsprogs

Wed Jul 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.29 released

Wed Jul 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove rpm and fonts required in the pxe examples

Wed Jul 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added missing fonts and X11 input packages to pxe 12.1 example

Tue Jul 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- libproxy reads the data from /etc/sysconfig/proxy. Thus it\'s
required to hold a temporary copy of that file inside the chroot
to make use of proxy settings while operating in the chroot

Mon Jul 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.28 released

Mon Jul 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure possible proxy setting is transfered to the kiwi chroot

Mon Jul 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

Fri Jun 29 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.27 released

Fri Jun 29 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed hybrid persistent writing with kernel 3.x (bnc #769086)

Thu Jun 28 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: dhcpcd works with timeout 20s, kiwi used 40s, so one half
of the time it waited with no reason. This patch runs \'dhcpcd -T\'
again after 22s, so the time is used effectively. It also helps in
situatios when the link needs more time to start, e.g with
wpa_supplicant and the first dhcp packets are lost.

Thu Jun 28 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix the getPXEDeployConfiguration unit test on ppc and ppc64

Wed Jun 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- zypper in 12.2 has been fixed now, so we can change back the
JeOS image template to the type=\"image\" installation

Wed Jun 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.26 released

Wed Jun 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added patterns for removal of unused files/dirs which
appears along with systemd,grub2,plymouth and are not
required inside the initrd

Wed Jun 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of glob patterns in kiwi_strip_delete

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove references to splashy from initrd

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- the post install script from grub2-branding-openSUSE creates
a background.png file in /boot. We have to preserve all data
created in /boot because the extractKernel() function moves
out all the data here from the initrd

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- hide plymouth splash when throwing an exception

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of bootincluded packages in type
specific packages sections

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update openSUSE 12.2 JeOS template. With 12.2 the switch to
grub2 was made but the grub2-branding-openSUSE package only
provides grub2 theming information. Thus for building non
grub2 based images like isolinux based live systems the
former gfxboot-branding-openSUSE data has to be present.
Because of this the openSUSE 12.2 JeOS template includes
now image type specific packages sections to select the
correct branding package

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make grub2 theming data available in the initrd

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed string validation in info message in KIWICollect so
that it actually shows the content of $metapack

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove import of graphics boot \'message\' file when using grub2
In order to support custom branding in kiwi for grub it worked
the way that one provides the theme data and together with
gfxboot-devel a special formatted \'message\' file was created and
stored inside the initrd. The setupBootLoaderStages() function
then imported that file to the system image. In grub2 the theme
data is just fonts and png\'s and there is no creation of a
special graphics format required.

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- hide plymouth splash when showing a dialog

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- switched to grub2-branding-openSUSE for openSUSE 12.2 JeOS template

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- grub2 can handle real spaces in menu items, yeah :)

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added grub2 theme support for the openSUSE theme layout

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- better info message when --targetstudio option is used

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- provide ROOTFS_BLKDEV before calling init/systemd
- don\'t export variables used by the boot scripts in the
cleanImage function. This function is called in an extra
shell process thus exporting back is not possible

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed resizeFilesystem to prefer btrfs over btrfsctl

Tue Jun 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added variable kiwi_cpio_name which allows to access the name
of the initrd image from within the initrd. This is currently
used to distinguish the initrd by the type of the distro

Mon Jun 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: improved testing for networks by using -T option

Mon Jun 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed createOriginSnapshot to prefer btrfs over btrfsctl

Mon Jun 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- preserve missing btrfs tools

Mon Jun 25 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- indicate check failure through return value (undef)

* we should have it correct now. Previously a 1 was returned,
indicating success. This change returns no value on failure
to indicate the failed state of the check.

Sat Jun 23 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.25 released

Sat Jun 23 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed __checkVMscsiCapable() it\'s a valid setup if no
machine configuration is specified in the kiwi XML

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 toganmAATTsuse.de
- fix the suse-live-usbstick config according to the version

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.24 released

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure getExecPath() also works when invoked as non root
user. It\'s required that PATH contains /sbin to locate
binaries used by kiwi with the \'which\' tool. This problem
appeared when calling the unit tests as non root user like
the buildservice does when building packages, thus this fixes
the build

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.23 released

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot logging, make sure the log continues after
switching to the real root filesystem

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added runtime check for get_kernel_version binary. This is
a suse only extension so when running on other build hosts
it should be checked if it\'s there.

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added uninstall target to Makefile

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make udevStart() aware of alternative location for udevd binary

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure kmod stays in the initrd, with respect to other
distros which already moved from module-init-tools to kmod

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed udevSystemStart / udevSystemStop to check which system
service manager can be used to run the service

Fri Jun 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed kernel sysconfig template check, that\'s a suse only
check and even we change our own names all the time

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.22 released

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 rneuhauserAATTsuse.de
- kiwi.pl: simpler date(1) use.
calling \'date -I\' is insensitive to locale which means:

* LANG=POSIX is not needed, thus

* explicit bash invocation is not needed (it was there
because the syntax for setting env. vars varies among
shells

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed date call in usage() function to work with native qx

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean up to perl critic level 4
- disable the brief file open/close check

* this check is unreliable when using multiple open/close
constructs in one routine.

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove duplicate implementation of method to get a list of packages
marked for boot inclusion. The methods getListBootIncludes() and
getBootIncludes() used to implement the same functionality. This
update removes the getListBootIncludes() method.

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add profile handling verification to the package and type unit tests

Thu Jun 21 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add additonal condition to avoid warning

* At present it is possible to trigger a \"uninitialized value\" warning
when calling the addPackages() method, if not all packages that are
to be added are boot included. This change fixes this issue.

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file, require grub2 for >= openSUSE 12.2

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update migration table

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean to critic level 3

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean to critic level 4

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- do not attempt to normalize a path that has not been defined to begin with

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean to perlcritic level 4

* critic exception around the unify function

* style clean up to more closely resemble the rest of kiwi code

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added get_kernel_version source into kiwi git. We might want
to install this tool on distros which doesn\'t provide it

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- modify the default critic policy for brief open

* by default a close() is expected within 9 lines of an open call.
Accounting for potential kiwi logging information and other coding
constructs we use this is ofetn insufficient. Therefore a line limit of
15 is a bit more reasonable for the kiwi code base

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add XML unit tests for type handling

Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- use strip section in RHEL JeOS template to remove some
unneded data not required in the initrd

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.21 released

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove bootsplash from the delete section in the openSUSE 12.2
boot image descriptions, bootsplash is no longer installed thus
it doesn\'t make sense to list it in the delete sections

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure JeOS for 12.2 installs glibc-locale

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- small cleanup for info message

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update JeOS 12.2 image description, install in bootstrap because
zypper in 12.2 is so flaky and bugy throwing segfaults all the
time and nobody cares about it :(

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added grub2 to openSUSE 12.2 boot image descriptions

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- use bootstrap only installation for openSUSE 12.2 boot images

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390: make sure we wait for udev to finish after fdasd is done

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- use grub2 as bootloader for openSUSE 12.2 JeOS except for xenFlavour

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed grub2-mkimage call, target format of core image must be set

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- add plymouth to JeOS image description

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup list of image packages selected in the openSUSE 12.2
boot image descriptions. The ones removed here were already
installed by the selection/requirements of the bootstrap
packages section

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- switched from bootsplash to plymouth splash screen in the
openSUSE 12.2 JeOS template

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added required plymouth packages to boot descriptions
for openSUSE 12.2

Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for plymouth splash system

Mon Jun 18 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: added more sophisticated partition table check. The
partition table is analyzed to check if it\'s possible to
run the update check and also to verify partition order, types
and sizes with some tolerance (so for example the change to 4k
sectors would not cause repartitioning). Additionally in a
RAID setup the checks would check both disks.

Mon Jun 18 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove references to splashy

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.20 released

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unit test due to changes in the logging

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.19 released

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- additional unit tests for package handling in the XML object

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added lxc as a recommended package to the spec file

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- rename the getTypeList method to getTypeSpecificPackageList

* the method returns a list of packages for the given image build
type. This was not obvious from the previous method name.

Fri Jun 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- call images.sh and config.sh scripts in a contained environment
using LXC. The function callContained() will use lxc if it is
installed on the build host machine. If it is not there or
lxc-execute cannot be called the function switches to the legacy
chroot method. Using a container to call custom scripts provides
more protection against the nasty things one can do in a script
with root permission

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t umount dev and sys filesystems in umountSystemFileSystems
this is done by kiwi in the cleanup phase

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed logging, use only one global log object which is used
by all objects to make sure all messages end up in the same
log file

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- more unit tests for XML

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.18 released

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.17 released

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390: sleep for a while after recreating the vtoc table

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean KIWICommandLine.pm and KIWIQX.pm to perlcritic level 4

* all other file changes to properly import the symbols from KIWIQX

Thu Jun 14 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- exclude additional unit tests in OBS as they need network access

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- reread partition table after recreation of the VTOC table

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390: initialize loader variable with zipl by default

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390 netboot: recreated the vtoc table with option \'r\'
instead of \'u\' which includes the deletion all partitions

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added function umountSystemFileSystems() which is used
to umount system filesystems like proc within the given
root tree. This is called after a custom script call to
cleanup the environment

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390: fixed normalizeRepartInput to work with fdasd

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- provide a pointer to the xml to createImageFormat() which
allows to only create the machine configuration without
direct access to the image file for reading the xml data

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- clean the unit test implementations to perlcritic level 4

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- switch back to perl-Test-Unit

* the package has been fixed and is back in factory/oS 12.2

Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- set the db45-utils package as recommend for openSUSE 12.1 and later

* at present a user running into a rpm db incompatibility issue may get
an error message that the db45_load tool is not available. This leaves
the user with no idea where the tool may be found. Unfortunately the
command-not-found utility does not turn up the command either. Setting
the package as recommends increases the chance that it will be installed
when KIWI packages get installed.

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- overlooked one format conversion call and make them skip
if in --targetstudio mode

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed building of md5 sum and compressed image when
in --targetstudio mode. In this mode we don\'t dump
an image from the generated target device, thus the
building of the md5 sum and the compressed version of
the image must access the device

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 adrianAATTsuse.de
- require u-boot-tools for oem images on arm

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- instead of skipping the entire format conversion when in
--targetstudio mode we only skip the creation of the format
but not the meta data which belongs to it

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- skip format conversion when in --targetstudio mode

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove duplicate implementation of buildImageName method

* the buildImageName was implemented in the XML and the Image
object. This change removes the duplicate implementation and
moves the method with the generateBuildImageName into the
Global object. It is expected that a better place will be
found eventually.

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use value of --targetstudio when building iso images

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed --targetdevice mode to work with NBD/AoE devices as well.
if a network block device receives a partition table there is
no automatic creation creation of devices per partition. Thus
it\'s required to call kpartx to bind those devices prior to
using it

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- additional unit tests for package handling
- skip tests that require network access
- fix up tests to verify network resolve for local test runs

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add Environment variable to allow tests that require network access to
be skipped in OBS

Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- make resolveLink and resolveArchitecture \"private\"

* these methods should not be called from outside of the XML object,
and most likely this should not be here to begin with

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added option --targetstudio which is used to specify a program
which creates the target device node to create the image on.
In contrast to the targetdevice option there will be no image
file dumped from the specified device. This option is mainly
used in SuSE Studio

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use dd when reading data from a disk block device
use qemu-img convert instead which takes care for sparse
information

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- setupEncoding ist not called if a targetdevice is specified
instead of the standard loop device operations. Thus luks
extension together with --targetdevice did not work. This
patch fixes it

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- call fdasd relatively and not with absolute path

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove logging of hijacked studio commands

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- allow createImageXFS to work with a target device

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit tests for XML object verifying package, pattern, and archive handling

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.16 released

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed the ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 \'hack\' which is there only because
of a bug in aria2c we\'d better fix aria2c instead of maintaining
a workaround for that inside kiwi.

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure timezone package is installed as part of the bootstrap
installations. zypper in openSUSE 12.2 crashes if it can\'t
find /etc/localtime. A bug for this problem has been opened.
As it seems zypper requires a timezone we should make sure
to install one from within bootstrap

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.15 released

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- Revert \"- the env setting ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 caused a segmentation fault\"
problem is that this change caused other unexpected behavior in
zypper :( I will investigate more here

* This reverts commit 31e0d0cadfdc9f678e9675754e83674054d29d83

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- just found out that also obs:// URL\'s doesn\'t work for
plain package building inside the buildservice. So I had
to change the unit tests again

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- the env setting ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 caused a segmentation fault
for zypper in openSUSE 12.2. I think if there is a bug in
aria2c we\'d better fix aria2c instead of work around that
inside kiwi. Therefore I removed this \'hack\'

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use remote URL\'s other than obs:// in the unit tests
the buildservice refused to resolve them so the unit tests
works locally but not during build, thus the package build

Fri Jun 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.14 released

Thu Jun 7 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for prefer-license attribute setting unique requirement

Thu Jun 7 14:00:00 2012 dmajdaAATTsuse.de
- Fixed deleting of /usr/lib/gconv content in baseStripLocales
The \"find\" command in baseStripLocales finds not only files
in /usr/lib/gconv, but also the directory itself which cannot
be removed by the call of \'rm\' in that case

Thu Jun 7 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- check that the prefer-license attribute is set to true only once

* if the attribute is set to true multiple times it results in an
ambiguity that cannot be resolved. As the outcome of the image build
is indeterminate in this case we need to error out of the process.

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup kernel profiles: For openSUSE -base is a subset of !-base

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: allow multicast TFTP for compressed images (fate #313083)

* the predownload hook detects that it is possible to use service
partition for intermediate files and exports the temp dir path
in $FETCH_FILE_TEMP_DIR

* the fetchfile() method uses the temp directory and exports the
intermediate file path in $FETCH_FILE_TEMP_FILE if it was created

* the postdownload hook deletes $FETCH_FILE_TEMP_FILE. Later we can
extend it to manage a cache of several image files.

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: added robust detection of the active network interface

* call dhcpcd on all available network interfaces and select
either BOOTIF from pxe or one of the interfaces which got
a dhcp reply (fate #313338)

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild schema documentation

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- adapt schema version from 5.3 to 5.4 for unit test data

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for getRepoNodeList

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit tests related to driver handling

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- apply stylesheet conversion from schema 5.3 to 5.4

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added xsl stylesheet which removes the type attribute
from the sections and also increases the
schema version from 5.3 to 5.4

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- rename addRepository to addRepositories

* the method may be used to add multiple repositories, this should
be reflected in the method name.

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation due to removal of the drivers type attribute

Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove type attribute from drivers section entirely

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild schema documentation

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation due to change in the type
attribute in the drivers sections

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t evaluate type of drivers sections. There is only
type \'drivers\' now available

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove use of netdrivers,scsidrivers,usbdrivers typed
drivers sections and merge them into one section

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- limit type attribute of drivers section to \'drivers\'

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add unit tests for repo handling in the XML object

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add argument check to addRepository() method
at present it is possible to attempt to add a repository with
an invalid type. This may lead to unpredictable behavior during
build. While the type is verified when given on the command line,
the additional validation is needed for migration when we add
repos from a running system.

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add log message for repository replacement
at present no message is issued if a replacable
repository is replaced with a new repository

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add info message when repositories are being ignored

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add doc string to the prefer-license attribute in the
schema documentation. Previously there was no documentation
and the name was not necessarily obviously implying the
intension of the attribute.

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- added unit tests for:

* getStripNodeList() method of XML object

* getConfigName() method of XML object

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- comment out variable that is only used for debug printing

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- rename of functions:

* getNodeList() to getRepoNodeList()
the getNodeList name is too generic and does not indicate by name
what can be expected about the information returned by the method

* getRepository() method to getRepositories()
the method returns all repository information, thus this should be
reflected in the method name

Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update schema documentation
include info about new XML element

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- do not call the test log internal __reset() method.
calling __reset() would ignore any potential other states and
therefore would ignore potential error conditions. Calling
getState() instead and ignoring the returned value ensures
that only one state is set in the log as expected after
calling the getErrorState() method.

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove unused variable pblt

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for new element

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation:
include info about new XML element

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add new element

* allow users to specify a default location for pre-built boot images
in the configuration file.

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- re-sort the attributes of the type element into alpha order

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- really fixed cleanupRPMDatabase() by using the db_dump|db45_load method

Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.12 released

Sun Jun 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed test_invalidProfileRequest(), it modifies the
message data thus it needs a reset to prevent after
effects in subsequent tests

Sun Jun 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- perl Test::Unit doesn\'t work for 12.2 anymore. Other than
that is\'s unmaintained since 2005. Therefore we switch to
Test::Unit::Lite which is also not really maintained but at
least still works

Sat Jun 2 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit tests for profile handling

* these do not test the usage of profiles, only the storage of
profile data in the XML object and the consistency check upon
profile request, usage will be integrated into other test at a later
date

Sat Jun 2 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- make the checkProfiles method of the XML object \"private\"

* this is an XML internal helper method and should not be
called by other modules

Sat Jun 2 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for XML object user data storage

Sat Jun 2 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- make the getVMConfigOpts method on the XML object \"private\"

* this is an internal helper method and should not be called
from other modules

Sat Jun 2 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- make the getPreferencesNodeByTagName XML method \"private\"

* this is an XML object internal method and should not be called
by other modules

Fri Jun 1 14:00:00 2012 adrianAATTsuse.de
- kernel-pae does only exists on i586/i686 architecture

Fri Jun 1 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- eliminate getXenDomain method from XML

* the domain is part of the Xen config and can be accessed
via getXenConfig we should not have multiple methods to
get the same data

Fri Jun 1 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.11 released

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for XML validation of the volume element
test to verify that the combination of \"size\" and \"freespace\"
on the element is rejected.

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- do not allow the use of the \"size\" and \"freespace\" attributes
in combination. At present a user can specify both the \"size\"
and \"freespace\" attributes on the element. In this
case the setting of the \"freespace\" attribute is ignored,
therefore allowing the combination of the attributes is
misleading and should be disallowed

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- XML object unit tests for LVM related methods

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: renamed boot and JeOS images from suse-Factory to suse-12.2

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed rt kernel profile, there is no kernel-rt for openSUSE

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed handling of obs URL path within KIWIURL. if the
created obs path does not exist proceed and check again
as opensuse URL type. This was done only in KIWIRoot but
belongs to the URL module

Thu May 31 14:00:00 2012 adrianAATTsuse.de
- remove packages which do not exist in 12.2 anymore

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- add empiric code to calculate size for btrfs images... not nice

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

setup as explained in (bnc #764703)

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit test for addStrip method of XML object

* verify error condition of improper call

* verify proper addition for delete, libs, and tools

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix addStrip method of XML object

* when adding new strip information we need to check if an element
with the given type already exists, if yes the information needs
to be added to the existing type. If a new element is added with
the same type as an existing element the getStrip
*()
implementations will not return the correct information.
This is a latent bug.

* also added a consitency check to ensure the method only adds
strip elements of supported types.

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add unit tests for XML getStrip
* methods

Wed May 30 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de

- v5.03.9 released

Tue May 29 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- allow direct root tree access for btrfs and xfs when creating
the virtual disk. For those two filesystem we had the intermediate
step to create a filesystem image first which is then dumped
via dd on the virtual disk.

Tue May 29 14:00:00 2012 adrianAATTsuse.de
- enable PXE on arm platform, untested but PXE exists
there and it is fixing building kiwi

Tue May 29 14:00:00 2012 adrianAATTsuse.de
- create additional -requires packages for each boot
description to track dependencies automatically in
the openSUSE buildservice

Tue May 29 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- eliminate the use of expr and use shell\'s $((..)) expression instead

- make sure resizeLVMVolumes unsets FSTYPE before fsresize

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add a reference to the online and local schema documentation

* a recent discussion on the mailing list revealed that there is
no reference to the complete schema documentation in the docbook
doc and not all available elements are listed in the docbook
documentation

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- apply oem dump and repart patches from x86 arch
to ppc/s390 and arm. Reference commits are:

* e3cb127676f636b71d2a07acd7fdd4bc0bb6f332

- DB: update documentation chapter 3

* update the chapter w.r.t. content, spelling, grammar

* add section to chapter 3 explaining the use of pre-built boot images
in a recent discussion on the mailing list it was pointed out that
the use of pre-built boot images is not documented

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed OEM partition selection for LVM images. If there
are exactly two partitions suitable for the install process
it\'s possible to assign boot and root partition according
to the partition ID\'s from the OEM image partition table.
Thus we can prevent a selection dialog in this case.
Additionally this commit added more information about
the reason why partitions are rejected

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure \'rev\' tool stays inside the initrd

Fri May 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

the reboot tool is now a link to systemctl

Tue May 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.6 released

Tue May 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed baseStripUnusedLibs to work with library links
pointing to library links (bnc#753574)

Tue May 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed baseStripUnusedLibs to work with library links
pointing to an absolute path (bnc#753574)

Mon May 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed the way how the size request of LVM volumes in an oem image
is processed. Before this patch the volumes were created with the
requested size and stored in the image. Thus we store a lot of null
bytes inside the image and also dump those null bytes when running
the code of an oem install image. As the oem image by design expands
itself on first boot according to the target disk and oem image
configuration parameters, it\'s more clean and also faster to resize
the volumes on first boot and not keep them with their requested
size inside the image (bnc#761993)

Mon May 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed fstab flags for non root device entries

Mon May 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- apply suse-repart patch for ppc, s390 and arm architecture
reference commit: a621b4e715ac18e1daabb644a9b3b8af2e316d24

Mon May 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make controller and id attributes optional in the vmdisk section

Mon May 21 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for openSUSE 12.2 / removed 11.3

* added JeOS openSUSE 12.2 image template descriptions

* update spec file to support openSUSE 12.2 and remove 11.3

* added 12.2 boot image descriptions

* added openSUSE 12.2 examples

Fri May 18 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild schema documentation

Fri May 18 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild schema due to latest changes in .rnc

Thu May 17 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove superfluous () for variable declaration

Thu May 17 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove controller and id attribute settings from Xen example
The controller and id attributes are not evaluated in the XML object
for the Xen configuration, showing these settings in the examples
is misleading to the user.

Thu May 17 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add qualifiers to attribute description of the machine and vmdisk
elements. At present it is not obvious which of the attributes are
evaluated for a given Virtual Machine image format when looking at
the Schema documentation. The qualifiers address this situation.

Thu May 17 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- added unit tests:

* unit test for getEc2Config method of XML object

* unit test for getVMwareConfig method of XML object

* unit test for getXenConfig method of XML object

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add the proper IP address to the Web-UI (sunstone) configuration file
~ presently the user has to manually change the configuration file
and restart the server. This change eliminates this need, after the
cloud is up and running the user can just access the Web-UI as the
server is listening on the appropriate address.

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update schema documentation

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added type attribute . This
allows to set the size of the eventual boot partition. If no
such size is set 150MB is the minimum size for the boot partition.
The value has an effect for image types which creates a boot
partition only, e.g LVM, split

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed disk increasement stepsize from 100MB to 10MB

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix type in comment

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup of KIWIBoot constructor, avoid code duplication
- added error check for kiwi --bootvm ... --bootvm-system
if the system is not a root tree, rootfs image or partition device
- prevent dumping the image from a --targetdevice if also the creation
of an install media was set. This will speedup the build
- make sure to use qemu-img convert to dump image from a targetdevice

Wed May 16 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- update the OpenNebula example:

* Adjustments for OpenNebula version 3.4.1 release

* Minor script fixes

Tue May 15 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use cat when reading data from a disk block device
use qemu-img convert instead which takes care for sparse
information

Mon May 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed getSector() calculation, could be too small aligned

Mon May 14 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for the vhd subformat=fixed type

Sat May 12 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added LVM volume information for all specified volumes
to the profile env of the boot image. This is required
to cleanly solve (bnc #761993)

Fri May 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- allow option --recycle-root to be used in a --build process
If there is a root tree in /build/image-root
available it will be used as system image tree. The build
of the boot image is not affected by this root recycling

Fri May 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- additionally create md5 sum\'s for the kernel and the optional
created splash initrd (fate #313338)

Fri May 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed setupNetwork
* functions in a way that they check
for the presence of the $root device and in case of an
error and an existing root device LOCAL_BOOT is set and
the system try to proceed with local boot of the installed
system (fate #313338)

Fri May 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.5 released

Wed May 9 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed bootloader setup if yaboot is used. the boot partition
id is set to fat (0xc) and we have to make sure to provide
bootinfo.txt, yaboot.cnf and the yaboot binary at the root
of the boot partition. We don\'t distinguish the layout between
LVM and non LVM setup if yaboot is used in order to have a
clean state

Wed May 9 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed function names installBootLoaderLilo and setupBootLoaderLilo
to installBootLoaderYaboot and setupBootLoaderYaboot. lilo is only
supported together with yaboot on ppc at the moment. So the function
names are misleading and would block us if we want to add support
for real lilo.

Wed May 9 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed package check for package scripts. The rpm database from
the image root system has to be used instead of the build system
package database

Tue May 8 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- Revert \"- don\'t set vga= kernel parameter for lilo bootlader setup\"
This reverts commit 5e815b28c84e805d4777551d67be8da0433e1238.
lilo on ppc is something complete different than lilo on other
architectures. The vga value is supported well on \'real\' lilo
so this issue should be fixed in the bootloader

Mon May 7 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t set vga= kernel parameter for lilo bootlader setup
I was told this causes trouble when lilo.conf is converted
to yaboot.conf

Mon May 7 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- use correct size for FAT table when yaboot is used

Mon May 7 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- we don\'t need the mbrid information for ppc/yaboot
the searchOFBootDevice function doesn\'t request it

Mon May 7 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- respect custom boot timeout value for yaboot setup

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove cpio program from initrd, required for custom splash setup
follow up fix for the other architectures s390, ppc and arm

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- allow evaluation of $DO_NOT_INSTALL_BOOTLOADER variable in
netboot suse-preinit to prevent installation of the bootloader
by a variable (bnc #760502)

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: use --metadata=0.9 format for raid setup (bnc #760713)

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.4 released

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed URL repo check, correctly use is_success method and
make sure every repo is checked for rpm-md _and_ repodata

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed \'in progress\' indicators from messages containing a path
People reported to be confused about the path to be complete :)

Fri May 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- create rootfs.meta data file which includes information about
the required min size and (good) inode value for split systems.
This prevents the initrd code from getting that information out
of the rootfs.tar tarball and thus speeds up the boot

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unit test due to the removal of the aufs support

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove the urlResponse() method and use the timeout function
implemented in LWP::UserAgent properly to resolve URL\'s

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure releaseNetwork() also deconfigures the interface and
configuration. Meaning don\'t use the -p option as we already
check for root over NFS/AOE/NBD it doesn\'t make sense anymore
- make sure releaseNetwork() unsets the HOSTNAME as it might
conflict with the later system image network setup

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- allow kiwisplitroot_size= which specifies how much
size is reserved for the tmpfs holding the temporary rootfs
data in a split image. Also fixed the calculation of the inode
number for this tmpfs

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed support for aufs overlay filesystem. The problem is that
no overlay filesystem like aufs, unionfs, deltafs and friends
is accepted by the kernel people. Thus support for them inside
the distribution(s) is hard to maintain and the system barely
works. My hope is that some day there will be the mount --overlay
method implemented in a clean way and supported by the kernel
until then we live with the fuse based approach (clicfs) and
the device mapper snapshot method for the caching
system (bnc #760159)

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit tests for preference settings

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- check only for presence and boolean value
The \"additive\" attribute is a boolean value, i.e. valid values
are true or false. We should only check for supported values.
The removed check for 0 is possibly an artifact from times
where we alloed 0 to indicate false in the XML.

Thu May 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed hook call with parameters containing spaces (bnc #760331)

Wed May 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed redundancy in getElementsByTagName (\"...\") -> get_nodelist();
calls. According to the spec getElementsByTagName already returns
the node list if called in array context.

Wed May 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added unit test for XML split settings

Wed May 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

Tue May 1 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.3 released

Tue May 1 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed baseStripUnusedLibs() to be more robust and prepared
for the move of libraries to another location

Tue May 1 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove cpio program from initrd, required for custom splash setup

Tue May 1 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.2 released

Fri Apr 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added optional
attribute which allows to configure if the Failsafe boot menu
entry for the install media should be displayed or not.

Fri Apr 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed misleading Restore wording in install iso boot menu

Fri Apr 27 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure required libs for filesystem tools stay inside the initrd

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.03.01 relased

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure libext2fs stays inside the initrd, it\'s required
for tune2fs on Factory/openSUSE 12.2

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of --edit-bootconfig. There is either the
choice for setting the value on the commandline or as attribute
inside the XML description. Before this fix the code did not
correctly get the value depending on how kiwi is called
- make sure any iso is created via the KIWIISOLinux provided
functions. According to this editbootconfig now also works
for the creation of installs ISO\'s

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- unit tests for the getPXEDeploy
* methods

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix typo in XML OEM settings unit test configuration

Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix typo in explanatory comment

Wed Apr 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure grub menu.lst is correctly utf-8 encoded

Wed Apr 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added __hasValidLVMName() runtime check. This checks if the
optional LVM group name already exist on the build host.

Wed Apr 25 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo in error message, $! is empty but we stored the
messages in $status

Tue Apr 24 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed flag state for iso in extras/suse-11.4/suse-min-gnome

Tue Apr 24 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- redirect errors from rpm --rebuilddb into the result variable

Mon Apr 23 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.25 released

Sun Apr 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed loop in partition size check

Sun Apr 22 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added a check for the split read/write partition size
when creating the virtual disk.

Sat Apr 21 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add unit tests for the getOEM
* methods
Prior to undertacing the restructuring of the XML object we need to get
unit tests in place

Fri Apr 20 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.24 released

Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- take package section type into account when processing
bootincluded packages. This means packages added as bootincluded
into the e.g image section gets added to the image section
in the boot image too. If the target description doesn\'t
provide the section the package will be added to the default
bootstrap section as before

Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove db4 package from the delete list in the RHEL
boot image descriptions

Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed rpm package database rebuild check for RHEL/yum
this reverts commit: c3e4ac88562074d87cad21e96cfe3d6dde976e48

Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- moved yum priority installation from the RHEL boot- into the
system image template and make it a bootincluded package.
That\'s because there are name differences like yum-priority
and yum-plugin-priority

Thu Apr 19 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed rebuild of package database when yum is used

Wed Apr 18 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: adapt JeOS description for beagle and fixed building in emulated environment

Tue Apr 17 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- really fixed boot.script setup according to (bnc #757489)

Tue Apr 17 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: On other systems which supports a boot menu we add
the linux kernel and initrd with its file names. But on
arm systems there can only be one kernel because uboot
doesn\'t support a menu. Thus perl-bootloader also doesn\'t
support updating the uboot configuration and that\'s the
reason why we use the links created by mkinitrd to point
to the kernel and initrd in order to support kernel
updates (bnc #757489)

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- s390: fixed recreateVTOCTable() to wait until the volume
group has settled before deactivating it in a LVM setup

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- removed obsolete error console information

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- kiwi creates a link with filesystem extension pointing to
the root filesystem image when created. The function
compressImage creates a .gz version of that root filesystem
image and therefore break the link. This fix enhances
compressImage() in a way that it receives the filesystem
information in order to repair the link

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added oem type to s390 JeOS image description

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update s390 SLE repo in JeOS template

Mon Apr 16 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.23 released

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added preCallInit hook to be available for the vmx type too

Fri Apr 13 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed partition based oem install method. parsing proc/partitions
was broken in OEMFindPartitions because the ID device name was
used as reference instead of the unix device name

Thu Apr 12 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- properly pick up splash image for pre-built initrd. At present
it is not possible to use a splash screen with a prebuilt
initrd. For a pre-built initrd the splash file is named with
extension \'.spl\', but we are loking for the extension \'.splash.gz\',
thus the file is not found. With this change we look for the
file with the appropriate extension.

Wed Apr 11 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update list of allowed VMware guestOS values

Wed Apr 11 14:00:00 2012 winterAATTsuse.de
- Fix the handling of the --mbrid command line switch
The value passed to the --mbrid flag is parsed to an integer by
GetOptions (format is \'o\' = extended integer). There is code
checking whether this integer is within the expected range and
formats it as hexadecimal value. But commit:
a5c7ab512dfb02dd99044c1db1cbc46ab05bf221
introduced a regression in the way the value of the --mbrid flag
was handled because the value is set using $cmdL -> setMBRID()
before the range checking and conversion.

Wed Apr 11 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- prepare the code for the move of the udev tools to the usr
tree. At present the location of udevadmin is hardcoded to
/sbin, once the tools move into the /usr tree and a link
exists the \'-x\' test will fail. This would result in broken
images.

Mon Apr 9 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- Do not allow whitespce in the value of the name attribute for the
and elements. At present the user can specify
a name containing whitespace. This leads to problems that are
difficult to diagnose in when the user tries to run the resulting
image, as the image will not properly operate.

Sun Apr 8 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- Fix ownership issue with persistent tmpdir
At present the script fails if /var/tmp does not exist. Although /var/tmp
should always exist, the new code assures proper handling if this directory
is missing.

Sun Apr 8 14:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- Fix race condition in launch script for openNebula test
At present the test script may cause a condition where the openNebula
infrastructure issues a \"[VirtualMachineAllocate] Error allocating a
new virtual machine. Could not get disk image for VM.\" message. Giving
the system some time to copy the image file eliminates this issue.

Wed Apr 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.22 released

Wed Apr 4 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed missing filesystem resize operation for LVM based images.
If oem-systemsize and a freespace=all volume is setup kiwi
resized only the freespace=all volume and missed to resize the
root volume

Tue Apr 3 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed XSL stylesheet conversion: convert49to50.xsl
the apply templates recursion is broken by using another mode
so the fix is to stay in the same mode and select the value by
a modified xpath expression

Mon Apr 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed misleading error message when kiwi can\'t find the
image file on the pxe download server (bnc #754275)

Mon Apr 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed oem installation with luks encrypted root filesystem
during the repartitioning the luks setup has to close down
otherwise the partition table is busy (bnc #754978)

Mon Apr 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed test -z expression

Mon Apr 2 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

- v5.02.21 released

Fri Mar 30 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed incorrect fstab entry created for read-only systems

Fri Mar 30 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed identifyDevice() to calculate the correct index for
accessing an entry in the deviceArray list

Fri Mar 30 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- moved from md5_base64 to md5_hex for the creation of random
repo alias names. md5_base64 could create names with a \'/\'
and that causes trouble when checking for the existence of
the repo file. In order to avoid to implement the same
escape code as used by zypper in kiwi for such alias names,
I\'d better moved the code to create hex number based alias
names

Thu Mar 29 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure ZYPP_LOCKFILE_ROOT is set appropriately when zypper
is used with --root option (bnc #753818)

Wed Mar 28 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed updateOtherDeviceFstab() to correctly create missing
mount points inside the root file system (bnc #754344)

Wed Mar 28 14:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure volume group name doesn\'t contain white spaces

Fri Mar 23 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.20 released

Thu Mar 22 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: added support for optional ${append} bootargs variable (bnc #752623)

Tue Mar 20 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure loader variable is initialized

Mon Mar 19 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use -s option for losetup:
the option -s is in collision with the Loop-AES losetup dialect that
is used in some distributions. Use the long version (--show) only.

Mon Mar 19 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed repartition code for LVM concerning the use of
element \'\' and \'freespace=all\' volume:

* if none of the two is specified, the root will be expanded to
occupy all available space

* if only oem-systemsize is specified, the root will be expanded
as much as specified

* if only freespace=all is specified (for non-root volume), then
the root will not be expanded and the other volume will take all
available space

* Finally, if both are specified, then the root will be expanded to
take as much as oem-systemsize requires and any remaining space is
assigned to the other volume.

Sat Mar 17 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed compare of object addresses by using refaddr. This is
more robust because objects can overload operators like \'!=\'

Sat Mar 17 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed pattern names used in examples (bnc #752754)

Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.19 released

Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

in http://www.vmware.com/pdf/ovf_spec_draft.pdf (bnc #752581)

Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed malformed ovf file. the Envelope properties
xmlns:rasd and xmlns:vssd are split in two lines with
an extra quote (\") (bnc #752580)

Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- only remove the KIWI created initrd and kernel if mkinitrd run was successful
- remove unused variable haveVMX

Thu Mar 15 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make split building more robust. the read-only partition size
will be a bit bigger than the actual read-only filesystem image
to be sure it fits into the partition. Due to the alignment this
was required and costs a few bytes

Thu Mar 15 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure kernelCheck() initializes list of kernels if empty (bnc #752259)

Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove libbz2 from isoboot boot images for SLE11

Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed removePackages() function

* make sure rpmLibs() is called prior to rpm. if all packages
are installed by bootstrap only this is required

* make sure to check for empty $final variable

Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added ovf format example to examples/suse-12.1/suse-vm-guest

Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- better warning message about required machine section data

Tue Mar 13 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- run the unit tests in verbose mode during package build

Mon Mar 12 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix Validator test
Revert f551128061 and d76e57194c, comparison in question checks for
equality of objects, thus numerical comparison is appropriate

Fri Mar 9 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.18 released

Fri Mar 9 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed typo in KIWICollect.pm

Tue Mar 6 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added which based search for dracut/mkinitrd/depmod

Tue Mar 6 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove unused function callSUSEInitrdScripts
The initrd is created by setupRHELInitrd and setupSUSEInitrd, there is no
call in the code to callSUSEInitrdScripts

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed removePackages():

* use options --noscripts --allmatches

* respect return code from rpm call

* make sure proc is mounted

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- added function updateModuleDependencies() to update the kernel
modules dependency list. Call this function prior to creating
the initrd. This allows the user to add custom kernel modules
and makes sure these get picked up when mkinitrd runs

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make removePackages() to work with yum

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

* fixed console output, stdout was wrongly redirected

* make sure utimer also works in the preinit code

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.16 released

Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: fixed installation of MLO loader, wrong path

Sun Mar 4 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: added following boot fixes:

* To avoid any issues when parted leaves x86 boot code we
zero out the first 440 bytes (MBR without ptable). The
mandatory master boot id to identify the device is written
afterwards

* make sure MLO is installed after repart again in
installBootLoaderUBoot. Also make sure the same MBR cleanup
code is applied in the kiwi boot code

Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.15 released

Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed handling of console in kiwi initrd (bnc #749900)

* removed use of klogconsole, we want kernel messages at that stage

* don\'t use tty devices, use /dev/console and remove kiwistderr

* allow debug shell only if tty device for it exists

* don\'t use extra terminal to show error information. all that
is stored in /var/log/boot kiwi

Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added ec2region setup to ec2 example image descriptions

- fixed default fstab setup to know about /run for udev

Thu Mar 1 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- update EC2 chapter
Include information about EC2 tools handling of regions, us-east-1 is the
default if not otherwise specified via EC2_URL, --url, or --region

Thu Mar 1 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed initrd module list for ec2 format code

Wed Feb 29 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- further cleanup of ec2 examples

Wed Feb 29 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

* don\'t use -A also make sure the exit code of mkinitrd is evaluated

* make sure all required filesystem modules are added to
/etc/sysconfig/kernel before calling mkinitrd

Tue Feb 28 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- respect size setup by user and don\'t add extra space for
a possible boot partition

Mon Feb 27 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- because the input stream from XML is utf-8 encoded it\'s required
to set binmode correctly to utf-8 too when writing the data out.
This is at least required for the profile file inside the initrd
because it contains data from the XML like the oem boot title

Sun Feb 26 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed partition alignment to align start and size of
partitions to 4096 bytes. The value can be changed with
the option --disk-alignment

Fri Feb 24 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.14 released

Thu Feb 23 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- follow up and improved fix for basePackBootIncludes to pack
only items listed in the rpm package filelist but don\'t
recursively look them up in the filesystem when tar\'ing
them up (bnc #743159)

Thu Feb 23 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added creation of new meta file appdata.xml for product media

Thu Feb 23 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove opt and selinux from initrd

Wed Feb 22 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added possibility to specify an oem-unattended-id in the
oemconfig section. The id is evaluated as part of the oem
install code and can be either the string like it appears
in dev/disk/by-id or by-path. if the option oem-unattended
is set to true kiwi will try to assign the install device
according to the specified id. if the id cannot be found
a reboot exception is thrown. If no id is specified but
unattended mode is requested the first entry of the sorted
device list will be used like before this change

Wed Feb 22 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- sort list of devices found for installation in suse-dump

Tue Feb 21 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- remove \'fixed\' flagged repositories from boot image descriptions.
As the boot image inherit the repo setup from the system image
it\'s more flexible to let the system image decide for the repos

Tue Feb 21 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suseStripModules to return early if no update driver was found

Tue Feb 21 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added staging/hv drivers to SLE11 boot image descriptions.
Beginning with SLE11-SP2 the drivers are part of the standard
kernel and thus they should be preserved (bnc #747898)
- with reference to (bnc #747898) a new function called
suseStripModules() has been added. The function searches
for update modules and removes the old version which
might be provided by the standard kernel to prevent
a load clash

Tue Feb 21 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix improper call off stripImage()
- fix some cosmetic issues

Mon Feb 20 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

Fri Feb 17 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- deactivate volume groups always with their name as argument
- fixed setDefaultDeviceMap to respect device naming conventions

Fri Feb 17 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- finally fixed setupBootPartition in a clean way. kiwi creates
a volume label named \'BOOT\' if a boot partition is used.
setupBootPartition searches for the label and setup the boot
partition accordingly. Along with the change the functions
update
*BootDeviceFstab and resetBootBind were also adapted.
There is now only one updateBootDeviceFstab handling the
boot partition entry for all modes if required

Thu Feb 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.10 released

Thu Feb 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

they are written to the kiwi log file. It hurts when
multiple log messages are written without a newline

Mon Feb 13 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: fixed setup of boot.script, missing redirect

Fri Feb 10 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.9 released

Fri Feb 10 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for iso boot process from external loader
If the boot option isofrom=\"storage-device:path/to/iso\"
is given the isoboot initrd will try to use the contents
of this device to boot up the system. This allows to
externally load the linux kernel and initrd with e.g
grub2\'s loopback support and let the iso image exist
as a file instead of being dumped on a target device
Details on the use case can be found in (bnc #746351)

Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove superfluous boot.local

Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

- migration: fixed oemboot prefix setup

Mon Feb 6 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- arm: Now that x-loader on OMAP can boot from ext2, let\'s also
teach kiwi about that awesome new capability. This gets rid of
the vfat based boot partition and moves it to an ext2 based
one. Additionally the 64MB limit on the boot partition is gone
because the MLO is installed in the first 128kb of the disk
and is no longer part of the boot partition. Kudos to Alexander
Graf you added all this.

Mon Feb 6 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

Fri Feb 3 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.8 released

Fri Feb 3 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- moved validation of delete section into setup() routine
- dont\'t use basePackBootIncludes/baseUnpackBootIncludes anymore
this conflicts with bootincluded packages marked for deletion

Thu Feb 2 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- keep only the uBoot initrd representation and remove the
gzip version of the initrd from the boot partition. This
saves some space urgently needed because on arm the boot
partition is fixed 64MB

Thu Feb 2 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add unit test for getExecArgsFormat() method of KIWILocator
- implement helper executables for the test in new bin directory

- migration: ignore weak-update links

Mon Jan 30 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- migration changes:

* create custom tree for unpackaged files/dirs based on hardlinks

* don\'t copy entire etc/ directory, doesn\'t make sense to have all
especially packages stuff in the overlay tree

* adapt deny list, ignore bootsplash and bootloader data for
migration

Fri Jan 27 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix spec file, version of RPM on SLE does not handle %else if directives
thus we get a dependency to qemu-img is created, but this package does
not exist on SLE.

Fri Jan 27 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed setupKernelModules and init call for CentOS

Wed Jan 25 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- implement method to allow us to handle different command line argument
implementations, i.e. -longOpt vs --longOpt. This problem is currently
experienced on different versions of the isohybrid executable
- use newly implemented method to properly determine the argument format
when calling the isohybrid executable. Really fixes (bnc #742836)

Wed Jan 25 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed error console setup in arm JeOS description

Mon Jan 16 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- changed the way how kiwi detects live and install ISO media.
The volume ID of a live and install iso is now a unique ID.
On boot the devices are searched to match that ID

Sun Jan 15 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- follow up fix for last commit. Moved the calculation of
the seek value into the getBlocks function and also fixed
the function in terms of non reachable code

Sat Jan 14 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix \"off by 1\" error
The created image is either 1M or 8K larger than the created partition
for images that require a boot partition (XFS or Btrfs filesystems).
This triggers a failure when the image is dumped to the partition in the
disk image. See mailinglist thread
http://groups.google.com/group/kiwi-images/browse_thread/thread/8988598856aee92d

Fri Jan 13 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for setupBootLoaderGrub2 and installBootLoaderGrub2
in kiwi\'s initrd code. The functions are called on first deployment
of the image and create the system bootloader configuration via
grub2-mkconfig and grub2-install

Fri Jan 13 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure default strip type=\"delete\" information from
KIWIConfig.txt is used even if a custom strip section
was defined

Fri Jan 13 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- deactivate the use of basePackBootIncludes/baseUnpackBootIncludes
These functions can be used to preserve and restore the contents
of bootincluded packages/archives. We used it to prevent removal
of files by the suseStripInitrd function. Due to the change of
suseStripInitrd we are now more flexible to control what stays in-
and what should be removed from the initrd which makes the use
of basePackBootIncludes/baseUnpackBootIncludes obsolete

Thu Jan 12 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.02.3 released

Thu Jan 12 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- find a way to install grub2 into a partition :)

Wed Jan 11 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- first start of supporting grub2 in kiwi, still missing parts are:

* graphics boot setup, no font or theme is provided by SUSE

* first boot setup, it\'s not clear if we use grub2-mkconfig
or if kiwi has to write the configuration by itself

* recovery grub2 setup, this normally means install grub into
a partition. So far I wasn\'t able to install grub2 at another
place than the MBR

Wed Jan 11 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- increased wait timeout for CDDevice search

* priority, username and password information to sources info

Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- alphasort the driver and package entries in the boot descriptions
This aids comparison between base distributions and boot types. It also
helps in avoiding duplicate entries if changes need to be made (see mistake
in a recent commit)

Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- update SLE10/11 JeOS README

Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de

- netboot: added a check for the boot partition in a LUKS
setup. if root is LUKS encrypted the local boot setup only
works with a proper boot partition. If such a partition is
not found the local boot setup will be skipped (bnc #735112)

Sun Jan 8 13:00:00 2012 msAATTsuse.de
- make setup of boot device and updateOtherDeviceFstab

- update unit test module for validator and implement test cases

Wed Jan 4 13:00:00 2012 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix gpg signature import
The failure is triggered by a behavior changes of /usr/lib/rpm/gnupg/dumpsigs
on openSUSE 12.1. The updated implementation must be called with a comand
line argument, i.e. the gpg file. Previous implementations (checked
openSUSE 11.4 and SLES 11 SP1) of dumpsigs also accept this commandline
argument, thus the change is backward compatible.

also added a pandaFlavour profile which is imported by default
and includes the kernel-omap2plus plus u-boot-omap4panda useful
for panda boards. That way we can easily extend the image
description to be suitable for other boards

Tue Dec 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

* added vmxboot image description for armv7l

* added kernel profiles: tegra (tegra boards), omap2plus (panda boards),
omap3beagle (beagle boards) and imx51 (efika boards).
Tested only on panda and there are still plenty of problems.
Don\'t expect this support to be ready and stable !

* added JeOS example image for arm, target SLE12

* added support for uboot loader

variable whose name makes sure this actually is a byte value

Fri Dec 16 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add writeXMLDiff method stub in test logger implementation to mimick the
regular log object, this fixes the test failures when running tests as root

Fri Dec 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added end partition alignment which needs to be aligned to
head/sectors (aka 255
*63 in the loopback case). The end sector
needs to end one block before the next cylinder starts.
Additionally the value for what the kernel thinks about
the heads sectors and sectorsize can be set via:

* --bios-heads

* --bios-sectors

* --bios-sector-size

Fri Dec 16 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de

- add support for the new Amazon EC2 South America (announced as Sao Paulo)
region

Wed Dec 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

at the end of the initrd as garbage and refuses to boot. With this
patch we skip the bootsplash setup if it\'s xen (bnc #736491)

Wed Dec 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed detection of clean-root before we remove it (bnc #736003)

Wed Dec 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

moved hook calls pre/postpartition back inside of the block

Wed Dec 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed used of binary only ovftool and added native support
for creating the ovf machine description. So far only the
basic information is setup in the ovf but this will be
enhanced according to user requests. Along with the change
support for the ova format has been added as well. ova is
tar container including the actual image plus a manifest
and the ovf XML description

Tue Dec 13 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix the OpenNebula example cloud node setup to ensure the cloud admin

- DB: rebuild documentation

Fri Dec 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.01.8 released

Fri Dec 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed udev database transfer. udev stores the database in /run and
in /dev/.udev. kiwi did not take care for the information in /run
which has a bad impact on systemd waiting for udev events which did
not appear. Along with this fix the changes from commit 1a12ad0974ea
were partially reverted. The obsolete udev rule is gone again and
we don\'t use the exit control signal in udevSystemStop. The more
failsafe udev exit code in the initrd udevKill() function has been
tested and will stay there (bnc #731457)

Fri Dec 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.01.7 released

Fri Dec 9 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de

the previously suggested project system:/aoetools does not appear to
be maintained

Thu Dec 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed split boot. setupBootPartition() behaved incorrectly
with the split image because the read-write part is also
used to store the boot configuration in this mode

Thu Dec 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed --grub-chainload setup. In this mode the mbr from the
master-boot-code package is used to call the grub installed
into a partition. The code there was broken in a way that the
filesystem on that partition was damaged

Thu Dec 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot device setup for split build

Thu Dec 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update 12.1 examples

and starts to install a kernel-debug and other unwanted
packages

Thu Dec 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed 32bit xen domU build for 12.1 JeOS template
xen and xen-tools only exists on 64bit 12.1 distro

* add persistent udev rule for dm devices

Wed Dec 7 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed rpmLibs() baselibs setup to use a tmp copy of
ldconfig from the host system to allow to work with
the other library tmp copies

Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- clean up build process

* moved swig to libsatsolver-devel. Only required if kiwi builds
the legacy satsolver module if no perl-satsolver exists

* removed trang to get rid of java dependency. trang is used to
transform kiwi\'s rnc schema code into the rng syntax. If the
rng is up to date the build doesn\'t have to create it though

* removed obsolete Qt requirement. The tool which needed this
is not packaged/required anymore

* make the build work for the arm architecture

Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- remove obsolete code and speedup removal of files in suseStripInitrd

- fixed suseInsertService and suseRemoveService to use
systemctl if systemd is installed

Wed Nov 30 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- remove systemd specific check, systemd is the default for
12.1, no specific entry is required in menu.lst
- add quiet commandline option in menu.lst to avoid having
kernel message show up in the console for 12.1

Tue Nov 29 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setLoopDeviceMap() to work with yaboot

Tue Nov 29 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setLVMDeviceMap() to work with yaboot

Tue Nov 29 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

setup into the setupBootLoaderStages and setupBootLoaderConfiguration
functions like all others

Mon Nov 28 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for plain tar image type named \'tbz\'. This image
type just builds a bz2 compressed tarball from the prepared tree
as requested in report (bnc #732797)

Mon Nov 28 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unit test for valid arch check

- fixed parameter quoting of setupBootLoader() functions (bnc #729315)

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unused declaration of result variable

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- sed -ie behaves differently than sed -i -e, weird

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed zypper repo setup. Don\'t let --raw-cache-dir point to
cache-dir. Redirecting raw-cache-dir to cache-dir makes packages/
and solv/ appear to be orphaned raw metadata caches for ex-repos
packages and solv. Also don\'t re-add the repo if it\'s already
there. Just update the path for local repos to work with the
bind mounted path inside the chroot. (bnc #731090)

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file to build on RHEL as well

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added s390 pxeboot client configuration examples

Wed Nov 23 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- clean up ppc code. make sure loader variable is passed to the
yaboot configuration. Also handle partition layout and bootloader
setup according to the bootloader value and not according to
the architecture value

Wed Nov 23 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- properly handle specification of \"scsi\" controller type for VMWare images
This requires the \"-o scsi\" option to be present for the qemu-img command
on the build machine.
- implement new check in RuntimeChecker to verify that qemu-img supports proper
option if controller=\"scsi\" is specified and a vmdk image is being built
- clean KIWIRuntimeChecker to critic level 4

Tue Nov 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed --info/packages output to respect image typed packages
sections. getInstallSize() now behaves the same like when the
system is actually prepared

Tue Nov 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.01.3 released

Tue Nov 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow initrd variable NON_PERSISTENT_DEVICE_NAMES. If set
to a non empty string it will cause getDiskID() to return
the non persistent kernel device node name like /dev/sda.
This is to support storage devices with name conflicts
when using the udev generated node names.

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- wait a second before rereading the partition table in initGeometry

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- apply quoting of .profile contents during build (bnc #729315)

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed inode count calculation. Since vmmbytes is the image
size in MB, we need to mutiply it to get the count right
because inode ratio is in bytes/inode

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update repo paths for kiwi specific rhel6 packages

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed call of checkmedia (bnc #730763)

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.01.2 released

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed creation of useless udev tmpfs in udevStart() because this
is created as devtmpfs/tmpfs properly in createInitialDevices()
which is called in udevStart

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- in LVM case on ppc the boot partition should be fat16 (part type c)

Sun Nov 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- shorten verification message in suse-dump

Sun Nov 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup run-init code, prevent redundant calls

Sun Nov 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure /sbin/ifup stays in the initrd

Fri Nov 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- prevent umount of fstab listed subvolumes before calling systemd.
The former sysvinit did not like if another than the root filesystem
was mounted at call time but systemd handles this differently and
times out when processing the fstab listed entries

Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure fat16 is used for boot partition on ppc

Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- adapt common changes in the x86 oem boot code to the ppc code
also make sure partition table layout on ppc is the same than
on all other architectures

Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- adapt common changes in the x86 oem boot code to the s390 code

Wed Nov 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use $pID instead of fixed number

Wed Nov 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation

Wed Nov 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, added section about boot image customization

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added isoboot description for rhel/centos 6.0

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed getDeleteList() to take care if a package was added as
bootincluded that it is not removed by an entry in the delete
type packages section. A warning message is added to the log
file that this package is ignored in the delete list, thus it
will be installed. This problem often appear if one added a
package to be included in the initrd but the initrd image
description marked this package as to be deleted

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure the default strip tools and libs are appended if
one has specified such a strip section in the system image
description (bnc #720933)

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added lvm2 to 12.1 JeOS

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for dracut in setupRHELInitrd

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow strip sections to be part of the system image. This provides
full control over the initrd striping code for items to delete and
tools and libraries to stay (bnc #720933)

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed fixed strip lists from suseStripInitrd() and provide a
default strip table in KIWIConfig.txt. There is now the strip section
which can be of type \'delete\', \'libs\' or \'tools\' the delete typed
section specifies files to remove from the initrd. The tools typed
section specifies the tool names in /bin|/sbin|/usr/bin/|/usr/sbin
which should stay whereas all other tools in that directories are
removed. And the libs typed section specifies those libraries which
has to stay whereas all other libraries without any ldd reference
are removed. (bnc #720933)

Tue Nov 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- save some space in the initrd by removing licenses and iptables
packages. Added them in the type=\"delete\" sections

Mon Nov 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo in error message

Sun Nov 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file: rhel vmxboot available on x86 and x86_64 only

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add collection of perlcritic exceptions to the statistics collector
- change collector such that only the next scan time is written and
not he whole \"old\" content that does not change. New data is added to the
file at the end
- add the doc stats collector provided by Thomas, this is not yet integrated,
but I thought we shouldn\'t loose the code
- register the collector code in the hook

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: rebuild documentation, mention Microsoft HyperV (vhd) format

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update kiwi --help output to show supported vhd format

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- renamed image format vpc to vhd. vhd seems to be the well
known name for Microsoft HyperV images (bnc #729857)

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v5.01.1 released

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure IFS is restored in fdasdGetPartitionID

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- integrate unit test run into the pre-commit hook

* if a file is changed that has an associated unit test and the
test has not been executed after the changes were made the test is
run prior to commit
- fix the runTest code to generate a timestamp file when a test is run and
it succeeds
- clean up kiwiCommandLine.pm, kiwiLocator.pm, and KIWIXMLValidator.t to
critic level 4

* clean up used to test new hook functionality
- clean up KIWISharedMem.pm to critic level 5

* clean up used to test new hook functionality

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed type in runTests, also set execution bit on the script

Fri Nov 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed creation of initial aligned partition table in KIWIBoot.pm
In SuSE studio the loop device which is normally the target for
parted is relinked behind the scene to a virtio device. As result
parted now sees a real disk geometry and that induced the bug in
kiwi which is not visible if it operates on the file mapped loop
device only. Looking at that partition code has turned out that
the alignment is broken which in the end broke the repartition
process in the first boot of an oem install image. The code is
now fixed to work properly on any storage device (bnc #729636)

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- modify Makefile to create timestamp files when tests are run
- add .gitignore file to ignore timestamp files and timestamp directory
- implement trigger files

* each trigger file contains a list of tests that should be run when
the module with the equivalent name is changed. For example if KIWIXML.pm
changes, the tests listed in KIWIXML.trig will be run
- implement runTests

* contains the logic to execute tests as needed based on the trigger files
and dependent on the timestamps

* this script needs to be integrated into the pre-commit hook to assure the
appropriate tests get run prior to commit

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update rng schema due to last change in rnc

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed fdasdGetPartitionID() it was completely broken.
The function evaluates the wrong information and was
also syntactically wrong... I should tell myself each
day \'never code in a hurry\'

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- add Perl module compile check to pre-commit hook

* any Perl file (ending in .t, .pl, .pl that is changed is run through
\"perl -wc\" prior to commit to assure the code at least builds
- clean the KIWIArchlist module to critic level 5 and fix the style
to match the rest of the code

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed parameter quoting in setupBootLoader (bnc #729315)

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix unit tests

* earlier update of ktLog broke the tests due to initialization problem
with q{ } vs q{}, the later producing an empty string, the former a
string with one space character, thus not empty. Empty string
initialization is required in other parts of the code.

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- include new EC2 region (US-West2), update the EC2 kernel IDs to the newly released v1.02 IDs, update code and docs, also fix the regular expression in hook to properly deal with .txt extension, i.e. ignore those files

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
- fix compile error (errant character g at EOL)

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure partedSectorInit() comes up with an initial value for
the start sector if the partition table is empty (bnc #729251)

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- turn all fixed flaged http:// URI\'s in the x86 boot images into
more flexible obs:// URI\'s

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- if an obs:// path can\'t be resolved, turn it into an opensuse path
and try again. That way you can use one URI to build the image
inside the buildservice and also outside with network access

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed cache creation. the cache is created from the image
description referenced by --init-cache and we prevent the
split into packages and patterns and the weird cache template
in modules/KIWICache.kiwi. This allows to create cache only
image descriptions whose only purpose is to create caches

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed doubled my declaration of the same variable

Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de

the swap file support (bnc #728645)

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added options --xattrs and --acls when using rsync

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed importFile to filter out empty lines and also match
comment lines starting with space/tab before \'#\' (bnc #728357)

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use mktemp to create tmp dir in setupInstallFlags

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.99.1 released

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed importFile to allow \'\\\' characters (bnc #728357)

Mon Nov 7 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure importFile() stays backward compatible and ensures
proper quoting. Also make sure the prefixed variable copy is
only created if a prefix was set (bnc #728357)

Mon Nov 7 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- switch from tar to rsync based copies. Reason for the change is
because tar doesn\'t support file attributes like xattr,acls

- v4.98.10 released

Thu Oct 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- v4.98.7 released

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed appliance name escaping. One can use any string for
the displayname attribute which is now properly escaped

name attribute must match the pattern [a-zA-Z0-9_\\-\\.]
and is not allowed to have the architecture string
as part of the name (bnc #716992)

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
add section about cross platform build, expand the introductory section of chapter 4

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.98.6 released

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- libcrc32 module depends on crc32c, but it does not state this dependency
explicitely (modules.dep does not contain this information). Since KIWI
relies od modules.dep to clean up unused modules in the initrd, this can
break module loading. This patch ensures that the module is kept in the
initrd and not purged.

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- revert back to parted hex id\'s, this reverts commits:
47f8bf758861a3d8cdbc2c188024f423e6ee45db

- fixed KIWIXMLInfo unit test due to last --info changes

Wed Oct 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- call createURLList() only on demand. Also provide accessor
methods for xml->{urllist} and xml->{urlhash}, don\'t access
these object data directly anymore. createURLList() was called
in the KIWIXML constructor but changes to the XML might happen
at a later point in time. So it makes sense to build the final
URL list when access to it is requested

Tue Oct 25 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- call setupNetworkStatic in suse-preinit for s390. With this
change we write the network configuration as received by
the initrd into the system config files below /etc/sysconfig

Tue Oct 25 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added function convertCIDRToNetmask() which allows the interpretation

- update locale headers

Tue Oct 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for setting up which volume should get the
rest free space assigned in a LVM setup. Example:



This will assign the rest space available in the volume
group to the LVvar logical volume. rest space means either
the size of the \'oem-systemsize\' element or if not set
the entire rest space of the disk. If no \'all\' freespace
attribute is set in the volume setup, the default volume
LVRoot is used as before (bnc #724489)

Mon Oct 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- added a 30 sec timeout to searchBIOSBootDevice

Sat Oct 15 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make searchBiosBootDevice more robust. The function probes
for the boot device until found and does not expect all
storage devices to be present at call time. There is still
a problem in install mode where we need a list of all
potential installation devices to be present at a certain
point in time. The function waitForIdleEventQueue tries
to address this but it\'s not race free

Sat Oct 15 14:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de
revamp the EC2 chapter, include instructions for using EBS, restructure organization

Sat Oct 15 14:00:00 2011 rjschweiAATTsuse.de

Fri Oct 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- xen dom0 support exists only for x86_64 architecture in

SUSE 12.1. Therefore we check for this arch in the boot
image descriptions

Thu Oct 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fetchFile does not handle special characters consistently.
fetchFile \"some%20file\" with atftp correctly downloads \'some%20file\'.
but with ftp curl converts the file name to \'some file\', which is
not expected. This patch fixes this and makes the behavior
consistent

Wed Oct 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized $count variable (bnc #455990)

Wed Oct 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t ignore size setup even if the size is smaller than the min size
kiwi\'s min size is safe but includes spare space. people who want to
overwrite that size can do it but on their own risk

Wed Oct 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow drivers section in the system image which will be
added to the drivers section of the selected boot image.
This allows to add custom driver information additional
to the existing driver selection as part of the boot
image (bnc #720933)
Author: Marcus Schäfer

is printed and the shell/reboot/wait action happens

Tue Oct 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed the check for the installed system in the netboot code
if the luks encryption is used. The check calls luksOpen with
luks_open_can_fail=yes. This means if the wrong passphrase is
given the check will proceed with \'update is required\' and
does not fail with a reboot exception in luksOpen

Tue Oct 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added hooks preswap/postswap which run before the check and
creation of the imageSwapDevice. This allows to setup your
own swap device handling.

- added a workaround for the cylinder counting bug in parted.
parted lists two different numbers for the amount of cylinders
only one is correct. This patch uses the correct value displayed
here. parted only shows different values if called on a loop
device

Sun Oct 9 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make suse-live-stick a real image example directory and not
a link to the live iso description. This also fixes the upgrade

base name of a license file which is displayed in oem images before
the installation happens. It\'s possible to add more
sections to display more licenses one after the other. If no such
element is specified the default \'license\' and \'EULA\' files are
searched to keep the system backward compatible

Wed Sep 28 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added runtime check which makes sure that there are no bogus

- use the same version of suse-dump for ppc and s390 arch

Mon Sep 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- the by-id device names can contain the \':\' sign which causes
trouble when kiwi uses the same sign as data separator. This
patch solves the problem for the evaluation of the instItems
array in the suse-dump code

Mon Sep 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- add priority to the repository to the boot config of RHEL iso

- DB: update documentation concerning the new imageinclude attribute

Sat Aug 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added a new attribute to the element called
\'imageinclude\', a boolean. The code treats the attribute
as having a \"false\" default value. When set to true (for
using zypper package manager only at this point) the specified
repository is added to the image being created, thus the
repo is available to install additional packages or upgrade
existing packages from within the running image.

Sat Aug 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup XML data from example image descriptions by the
result of the kiwi XML pretty printer

- make sure to have some spare space in filesystem images

Wed Aug 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove data from initial boot partition

Wed Aug 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- call setupBootPartition() only if systemIntegrity is != fine

- clean up netboot code, setup bootid before mountSystem and let
setupBootPartition do the setup of the boot contents

Wed Aug 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for pxe luks encrypted images

Wed Aug 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- break up long code line into two

Wed Aug 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added compat link menu.lst -> grub.conf, required by RHEL
- added function baseSetupBootLoaderCompatLinks() which can
be used to create the /usr/share/grub link to the stage
files which kiwi expects in /usr/lib/grub. RHEL installs
them in /usr/share/grub

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added parted 1.8.7 to RHEL5.4 repo

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot code: explicitly wait until the background
job showing the progress information has finished

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- let atftpProgress() read output directly so there is just one job
- fixed fetchFile(): enable progress only for block devices, without
this it showed the progress for md5 and other files when the first
image download failed.
- fixed fetchFile(): fbiterm does not work with serial console, added
fallback when it fails
- fixed fetchFile(): loadCode value from the background job is
returned correctly now

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed the image size calculation to leave not too much of
free space. In case of a filesystem based image as less free
space as possible is added. In case of a disk image we make
sure to have ~100MB of free space. If a single boot partition
is required we make sure to have min 150M to allow proper
kernel updates

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure atftpProgress() finishes _after_ the atftp process has
concluded the download, related to (bnc #713167)

- added kiwi-media-requires meta package which recommends all
packages which should be part of the distribution DVD

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- rpmlint doesn\'t like empty files

Tue Aug 23 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added atftpProgress() function which implements the progress
information for atftp by watching the atftp trace output.
atftp seeks in the output stream which forbids the use of
pipes for the progress information (bnc #713167)

Mon Aug 22 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure fribidi stays installed in netboot. It\'s required for
the fbiterm based progress information (bnc #713173)

Mon Aug 22 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use pipes in combination with atftp (bnc #713167)

- v4.94.3 released

Fri Aug 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove netcfg from boot images. This would remove the
etc/hosts file which might be required. Along with this change
also fixed the cleanupResolvConf() function which has to
reset the needResolvConf and needHosts flags in order to prevent
a deletion at a later point in time (bnc #713158)

Fri Aug 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t call restoreCDRootData() and restoreSplitExtend()
inside the global destructor of the KIWIImageCreator.
If the functions are applied to the creation of a boot
image it leads to errors because they are designed to
operate on the system image root tree

Fri Aug 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed broken state setup in KIWILog which was used to detect
whether we need a CR when printing the line or not. All that
sucked and caused mystery empty lines in the log

Fri Aug 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure loop maps are closed before installing grub. Also
changed the way grub is called. We are creating a file with
the commands first and then call grub ... --batch < file.
It makes the code more readable and also allows to include
the commands as part of the log file

Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed zero timeout value handling in syslinux. A value of zero
disables the timeout so we set the smallest possible value in
that case which is 1/10sec

Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- increased amount of spare space 1.1 -> 1.5

- make sure the text message file isolinux.msg is created in
case of a sys|extlinux based virtual disk image

Thu Aug 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure loader variable is initialized as early as possible
also make sure .profile is loaded inside the initialize()
function. This allows to setup loader by the value of the
kiwi_bootloader variable in an early phase

Wed Aug 10 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure the which command is part of the initrd

Wed Aug 10 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t configure a graphics boot screen in grub if no
bootscreen picture data is available

Wed Aug 10 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow init=/path/to/program option for kiwi images

Tue Aug 9 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- in 12.1 the sysconfig.kernel file has been changed into a
sysconfig.kernel-mkinitrd file.

Tue Aug 9 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- suppress error message on stat evaluation for rpc_pipefs

Mon Aug 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use getExecPath() to locate parted binary, also allow
alternative location of parted inside the linuxrc code

Mon Aug 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- When the Boot image\'s repositories are updated/reconfigured,
the priority and alias information is chopped off. This patch
makes sure the priority information is retained.

Mon Aug 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use getExecPath() to find the grub binary. Along with this
change the extraction of the grub binary from the initrd has
been removed. That binary never was called.
- allow alternative location for the grub binary inside the
linuxrc boot code

Fri Jul 29 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- allow bootwait post dump action in combination with other post dump action

Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- increased performance of the splash creation. Instead of
ripping the splash information out from the created initrd
cpio archive, the splash files are now obtained from the
unpacked tree and stored in a .spl file for appending it
later to the final initrd (bnc #708357)

Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed xsl 3.8 to 3.9 conversion, oem-align-partition,oem-dumphalt

- v4.93.2 released

Thu Jul 21 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed config dir path serach in --build mode

Thu Jul 21 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

still active if $main::global->mount() is called multiple times
each mount() call causes a reset to the AATTUmountStack which means
some umount information got lost

- v4.93.1 released

Fri Jul 15 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed installstick creation if sys|extlinux bootloader is
used. Also fixed size setup of install stick. Problem here
was that the uncompressed size of the raw install file was
used and not the compressed size which ends up in a too big
installstick image

Fri Jul 15 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for hybrid installiso media. In order to create
the hybrid the attribute bootloader must be either set to
syslinux or extlinux

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved zypper version check outside of the loop. It\'s enough
to check this one time

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- improve the OpenNebula example. I recently created a separate
package for the OpenNebula Web-UI server (sunstone) and with
the package \"cleanup/separation\" from the main opennebula package
showing how to use the Web-UI is easier now.

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use the --one-file-system option for tar when copying the
system image tree. This prevents the copy of files existing
beyond the local filesystem (bnc #705717)

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added log information if a hijacked command is called.
That check only works inside the studio environment were
a hijacked command has \'cmd\'_real replacement.

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value $ENV{\'HOME\'} (bnc #705717)

Thu Jul 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

template directories for distros we no longer support a JeOS
image from.

Wed Jul 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- cleaned up relocateCatalog calls which does not receive
a parameter anymore. Also fixed return value of fixCatalog
function

Wed Jul 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure relocateCatalog and fixCatalog is called
for SuSE installation media (bnc #705208)

Wed Jul 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added README file to make github happy

Mon Jul 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use predefined set of configuration settings if a bootcd
without system image was requested. The initrd itself doesn\'t
contain further XML information so we set vga to normal and
disabled the boot menu along with a boot timeout of zero
seconds (immediate boot)

Mon Jul 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed --bootcd creation mode

Fri Jul 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

Wed Jul 6 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure rpc_pipefs is mounted if /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs exists
- force NFS version 3 for NFSROOT setup. In that case v4 features
are not required

Tue Jul 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added check if reading the md5 file was successful (bnc #703829)

Tue Jul 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t remove /etc/netconfig for nfsroot setup (bnc #672172)

Tue Jul 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed order of resize/check operation to check/resize

Fri Jul 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.92.1 released

Thu Jun 30 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added sle10 backward compatibility patches for losetup calls
and partedGetPartitionID function. losetup in sle10 doesn\'t
know about the --find option and parted in sle10 has a different
machine (-m) output

Thu Jun 30 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure to unset the cacheDir if selectCache failed

Thu Jun 30 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed -t option when mounting the squashfs image
container in suse-dump. let libuuid decide that

Thu Jun 30 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo, check for dialog program happened twice

Wed Jun 29 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed and cleaned up disk size setup. There are two new
functions __initDiskSize() and __updateDiskSize() which are
used to create an initial disk size value and an update
function if there are conditions which requires to increase
the disk size. That actions are now also part of the kiwi
log file

Wed Jun 29 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setupOverlay() in KIWIImage.pm to write back possible
XML changes into the overlay tree to stay persistent in the
cow file

Wed Jun 29 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed cleanup of KIWIBoot instances in KIWIImageCreator

Wed Jun 29 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- increased chunk size in createSnapshotMap(). This increased
the performance of image caches a lot

Tue Jun 28 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow firstboot and autoyast service to be enabled together (bnc #700105)

Mon Jun 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for pxe buffered write on destination device in
fetchFile() function used for netboot images. By default a
chunk size of 4k is used

Mon Jun 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added network functions for s390 pxeboot. New functions are
setupNetworkInterfaceS390, setupNetworkStatic, setupDefaultGateway
setupDNS. Normally the pxe boot on x86 expects a DHCP server to
provide all the required network services but on s390 pxe boot
works together with a parm file containing that information
which is evaluated by the new functions.

Fri Jun 24 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of buildtype in createImage(). There were
some places which did not reference the build type as it
is stored in the XML object. This could lead to the use of
an uninitialized value if no primary type was set in the
XML description and no type was explicitly selected

Wed Jun 22 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed 01-network.sh preinit script for s390 templates to use
the same variable names as provided by the parm file when using
the standard yast based installation

Tue Jun 21 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added function includeKernelParametersLowerCase() which
converts all cmdline paramters to lowercase variables

Mon Jun 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- systemd-sysvinit creates a symlink from \'/bin/systemd\' to
\'/sbin/init\'. Unfortunately kiwi linuxrc tries to check
for the file permissions which leads to a false positive
rebootException (bnc #700603)

Mon Jun 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed __getBootSize() function so that it multiplies the
calculated minimum boot space by 3 to allow proper kernel
updates (bnc #698161)

Mon Jun 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed thisPath() evaluation. When in create or upgrade mode the
function did not use the value of the main::Prepare lookup file

Mon Jun 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- Apply some clean up to the recently submitted OpenNebula example.
I made some changes to the packaging in OBS which allows me to
simplify the image configuration.

Thu Jun 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed build on Centos/Redhat, recommended packages like
jing or zypper does not exist there so we had to check
the distro in that case

Thu Jun 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed the patternType validation bug reported by John Lund
on the users list. The patch also adds a new test case xml
file for the KIWIXMLValidator unit test.

Thu Jun 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added a new example for 11.3, 11.4, and 12.1. This example
demonstrates the use of Kiwi to create cloud setup images
and a guest images for clouds based on the OpenNebula
infrastructure.

Sun Jun 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.91.2 released

Sun Jun 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: fixed typo in URI documentation

Fri Jun 10 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- we need to go back to SHA1 for SLE 11 for now, zypp is not working with 256 yet.

Fri Jun 10 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use hardlink instead of copy to create the init file
in the initrd cpio archive

Thu Jun 9 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- make sure options for LogFile and RootTree are handled
before createInstSource() is called

Thu Jun 9 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- switch to 11.1 PDB branch

Thu Jun 9 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- fix plugin to become usable with current kiwi code

Wed Jun 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- remove the call to sax2 in the 11.3 vm guest example, sax2 is no
longer part of 11.3 and later as the X-server is self configuring.
Also added code to allow the firstboot sequence to be initiated.
While this particular example does not use the firstboot mechanism,
someone basing their build of the example and trying to get firstboot
to work would be hard pressed to find why it is not working.

Tue Jun 7 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed kiwi version number from a two part version
into a three part version number: v4.91.1. The major
and minor part of the version will not change with
bugfix releases. The following rules should apply to
the version number: major.minor.release. major change
might include incompatible changes. minor change
includes features and schema version updates. release
change includes any kind of bugfixes

Tue Jun 7 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- added appliances that are not referenced in docbook and are
intended to demonstrate image building and appliances in a
broader view into the doc/examples/extras directory

Mon Jun 6 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use a fixed value for the size of the boot partition. The
size among others depends on how many kernels were installed. Thus
a fixed value is always wrong. The new function __getBootSize()
is used to check the actual size of the boot/
* area and this value
is used to create the boot partition if required. In case of an
oem image the re-creation of the boot partition happens based on
the original boot partition size (bnc #698233)

Mon Jun 6 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- drop RPMQ dependency, package does not exist, but module is
provdided already by inst-source-utils.

Wed Jun 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- call the XML pretty printer when kiwi writes back the
XML description to the unpacked image tree. The result
is easier to read

Wed Jun 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved requirement back to genisoimage, after checking the code

Wed Jun 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed build: unit testing requires iso and filesystem tools
to be present in the buildsystem
- fixed spec file: genisoimage is set as required but kiwi uses
growisofs in the code which is provided by dvd+rw-tools

Wed Jun 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unit testing ktLog.pm, some functions from the real
KIWILog module were missing in ktLog.pm

Tue May 31 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow username and password to be transfered via
updateDescription / __updateDescriptionFromChangeSet

Tue May 31 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added option --start-sector to kiwi. This allows to influence
the default start sector 2048 to be another value e.g. 32 for
the old style disk layout.

Tue May 31 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed call of cleanup functions for KIWIBoot objects

Tue May 31 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- really fixed setupConsole to remove the ttyS0 console if no
ttyS0 device exists (bnc #695948)

Tue May 31 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed build: Added zypper to BuildRequires. This is needed in
order to make the unit test run happy

Fri May 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.90 released

Fri May 27 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

* ProfilesOrig

* PrebuiltBootImage

* ISOCheck

* CheckKernel

* LVM

* GrubChainload

* FatStorage

Thu May 26 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fix the problem with an improper exit status on test failure.
We now use prove (part of Perl) to execute the unit tests.
Prove generates the proper exit status upon test failure.

Wed May 25 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file: The functionality provided with the
kiwi-desc-usbboot package has moved into a new technology
which is not provided by another package. Therefore the
wrong provides entry was removed.

Wed May 25 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- enhanced setupConsole to remove the ttyS0 console if no
ttyS0 device exists (bnc #695948)

- allow unit tests to run standalone without kiwi
installed in /usr/share/kiwi

Fri May 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update schema documentation

- fixed obsoletes in spec file

Fri May 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- build arch of master kiwi can\'t be noarch if other
arch specific sub packages will be created

Fri May 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make rpmlint happy:

* don\'t package empty files

* don\'t package non unix file (dos2unix)

* don\'t package scripts without executable flag

* don\'t use unversioned obsoletes

* provide man pages with the master kiwi package

* make the master kiwi package noarch if possible

* require kiwi-tools version from the same master

Fri May 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed stylesheet bugs: Thanks to Tom for looking at it

* A xsl:call-template cannot contain a mode attribute. Only
xsl:apply-templates can have it. The affected files are
convert39to41.xsl and convert41to42.xsl

* A is incorrect in two ways: First
a xsl:copy needs to have something to copy in its _content_,
second the select attribute is syntactically wrong; AATT means
attribute, but which one? I guess, it should mean
*\"/>. However, in this case it\'s
totally useless as it copies
*all
* attributes, regardless
of the for-each loop. So the for-each loop can never act
as it was supposed to be.

Fri May 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- get unit test working again, due to restructuring changes
- provide config and target location as arguments to
prepareBootImage() and createBootImage(). Retrieving those from
the CommandLine object is not following our functional
separation model as the config dir and target dir for the
initrd cannot be given on the command line and therefore
should not be stored on the command line argument
- refactor setting of XML parameters into methods for re-use

Thu May 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- run unit tests during package build if SUSE > 1130

Thu May 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- limit the validation of config.xml files in the Kiwi tree to files
located outside the tests tree. config.xml files in the tests tree
are not necessarily expected to be valid as we also need to do
negative unit testing.

Thu May 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed version update script

Thu May 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup situation around global variables. There is now a
KIWIGlobals object which contains all global variables and
functions. There are still some global variables in use
which references options. Those should be handled by a
KIWICommandline accessor

Wed May 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed unit test kiwiImageCreator.pm
- fixed
*.kiwi search in getControlFile

Wed May 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved the image create step into the KIWIImageCreator code
There is now a function createImage / createBootImage which
is also used by the build step. Along with this change I
removed all occurences of the main::Survive variable and
thus removed all recursive kiwi calls now from the code.

Wed May 18 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- do not enforce the need of a meta package, driver update disk is not needing one (on command from cwh)

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup fix; don\'t create instances of KIWICommandLine
if it\'s not necessary. Also removed redundant code in
prepareBootImage

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make the user password optional; It is valid to have a user on
a system that cannot login via password authentication. Therefore
kiwi should not force a password assignment in the element

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed caching if used for boot images. Also fixed the check
between the initial prepare with cache and the remount of a
prepared tree with cache

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- add SLE 11 SP 2 media style plugin, using sha256 sums for meta data

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- add openSUSE 12.1 media style, using sha256 meta data sums

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed global variables CacheRoot and CacheRootMode and
cleaned up the KIWICache code. Also added a new runtime
check: __checkRootRecycleCapability which makes sure that
a cache based root tree cannot be used in --recycle-root
mode

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- last fix using --numeric-owner was still broken. Robert has
added a better and more robust patch to fix this

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- use --numeric-owner option in tar to prevent the table layout
to break if the user/group field in the tar -t output exceeds
the field length

Tue May 17 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t strip vgrename command from initrd

Mon May 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved the following operation modes into the KIWIImageCreator:
also fixed the unit tests and get rid of some recursive calls

* --setup-splash => createSplash()

* --bootusb => createImageBootUSB()

* --bootcd => createImageBootCD()

* --installcd => createImageInstallCD()

* --installstick => createImageInstallStick()

* --bootvm => createImageDisk()

* --convert => createImageFormat()

Mon May 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure XML validation happens in each processing mode
- fixed environment cleanup, added cleanup function in main

Mon May 16 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed logging. Added function resetRootChannel which allows
to split up the log at a certain point. This is used when
one --init-cache call creates multiple caches and each one

get rid of the global variable stack in kiwi as well as to
remove the recursive kiwi calls

Thu May 12 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- unit test fixes:

* move test repo to sharable location, adjust XMLInfo test

parameter (bnc #692629)

Mon May 9 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- integrate end-to-end testsuite written by Bernhard Wiedemann
into kiwi. There is a kiwi --test-image ... mode now, and I
added an example test to the 11.4 JeOS description. It\'s
required to have the os-autoinst package installed in order

- make sure bootincluded_archives.filelist contains only files

Mon May 2 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- move the createTmpDirectory code from the XML object to the Locator.
Creating a directory really has nothing to do with XML processing,
the Locator now handles local file system interaction, thus this
is a better place.

Mon May 2 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed reboot call in kernelCheck function (bnc #689294)

Mon May 2 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

required to set the boot device online (bnc #689004)

Thu Apr 21 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added alternative location for kiwi hooks scripts which
is FHS compliant: /lib/kiwi/hooks/ (bnc #688792)

Wed Apr 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added URL mapping table for the opensuse:// url type. When
resolving this the regular expression based mapping table is
used to create a valid location from the specified URI data.
It\'s possible to extend the existing KIWIURL.txt table
according to the needs of the user or service.

Wed Apr 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed xsl 51 to 52 conversion. The obsolete usb image type
is removed from the XML input. this image type can be either
replaced by an iso hybrid type or by an oem type. As there is
a choice for the user the stylesheet will not make a decision
here.

Wed Apr 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: added preLoadConfiguration hook:
preLoadConfiguration: is called before the client. is
loaded by kiwi and thus can be used to inject alternative code
for loading the client configuration.
- netboot: added postLoadConfiguration hook:
postLoadConfiguration: is called after the client configuration
has been loaded and imported and can be used for any action
after the client configuration has exported its variables into
the boot environment
- netboot: renamed the default register file which is put on
the pxe boot server if there is client configuration found.
kiwi now put a file called: upload/client.$DHCPCHADDR
which doesn\'t conflict with the files SLEPOS uses for
registration
- netboot: removed SLEPOS related code, posbios calls and
the evaluation of the WORKSTATION_LDAP_IP variable. All
this will be part of product specific hook scripts

Wed Apr 20 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow parameters to be passed to hook scripts

Tue Apr 19 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added setupBootLoaderTheme() function which is called
after the bootloader configuration has been written. The
function adapts/sets the THEME variable in the
/etc/sysconfig/bootsplash file according to the boot
theme set in the kiwi XML configuration

Mon Apr 18 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suseStripFirmware to match in subdirectories below

- fixed build

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot partition id in suse-repart if syslinux is
used as bootloader. We are using fat32 now (c)

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- using sfdisk --id now, thus require sfdisk in spec file

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed getStorageID function and the evaluation of the return
value of this function. The assumption that the partition id
is a decimal value is wrong, thus calling int() on the result
is not a good idea. man I really shouldn\'t code at midnight

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setupSUSEInitrd function. We create imho poinless
links named linux.vmx and initrd.vmx which are not used
at all if the initrd could be generated by mkinitrd.
Additionally the links are broken if the running kernel
is not the same as the installed kernel. Therefore I
removed the creation of that link files
- fixed kernelList function. the code searching for installed
kernels if the running kernel can\'t be found was never
reached. Additionally the function did not search for other
than the running kernel which seems to be wrong if multiple
kernels are installed

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update config.sh scripts for the ec2 examples to ensure
the ssh policy and inittab console settings are correct

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added new consistency check to enforce that ec2 formatted images are
created as file system types. This required an update to a number of
other config files used for Validator unit testing. Added new unit
tests for the EC2 requirement.

Wed Apr 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed parted type setup, use the form \'set [nr] type 0x[id]\'
this is used to workaround a parted bug happening if you
type \'set [nr] swap on\'. parted refuses to set this even
though the help page in batch mode tells the user to do it
exactly that way

Wed Apr 13 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed fat 8+3 kernel/initrd renaming code. This is no longer
required when using a fat32 / vfat partition / filesystem

element and behaves the same as if the users would have
modified the XML accordingly

Mon Apr 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure installBootLoader() is called for vmxboot
image if a root overlay filesystem structure is used

- added evaluation of kiwi_ramonly element for ppc and s390 arch
- added evaluation of kiwi_ramonly element for non LVM setup

Mon Apr 11 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed subsequent mount procedure of a clicfs based image.
The resize2fs call has to happen in any case if the image
is a ramonly system

Fri Apr 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.85 released

Fri Apr 8 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- in KIWIRoot.pm the fixupOverlayFilesOwnership() function
fails to quote the filaname which results in problems with
files/directories with spaces in their names.

Thu Apr 7 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- Added a new consistency check and unit tests to ensure that
config.xml files specifying an image type that requires an
initrd set the boot attribute on the element.

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 mbarringerAATTsuse.de
Fixing a problem with imagewriter\'s makefile

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 mbarringerAATTsuse.de

Fixing Imagewriter compilation w/ HAL support enabled

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use the result of a getExecPath() call happened outside
of the chroot, for a command call inside the chroot. It might
happen that the path to the binary is different inside the
chroot and thus can\'t be found

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 mbarringerAATTsuse.de
Fixing bnc#679099 - Imagewriter still requires HAL

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 rootAATTsuse.de
- added support for ZFCP devices

Wed Apr 6 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added repodata information for s390 suse-sle11-repo

Tue Apr 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- if the target-device option is used kiwi normally doesn\'t
create a disk image file until the image file is created
by a dump off from the target device. SuSE studio requires
the size information of the target disk before the dump off
happens, because it creates that target device internally.
Therefore this patch makes sure that a image disk file is
created before the dump off happens

Tue Apr 5 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved from fat16 (0x6) to fat32 (0xc) for syslinux setup

* repos and move the
repotype to rpm-md in all referencing XML descriptions

Mon Apr 4 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed test_cmdReplaceRepo_noRepoType test, it\'s valid
to overwrite first repo without specifying a type

- added normalizeBootPath() function which allows to use
the following boot attribute source locator prefixes:

* this:// => pointing to the image description directory

* system:// => pointing to /usr/share/kiwi/image

* dir:// => pointing to a directory
if no source locator is set kiwi uses the path if it is an
absolute path and in case of a relative path it checks if
the path relative to the called directory exists and if not
it also checks if the path exists below /usr/share/kiwi/image

Fri Apr 1 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed repository setup for cache creation

- fixed boot path lookup if boot attribute contains an
absolute path (bnc #683135)

Mon Mar 28 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added fixupOverlayFilesOwnership() function which handles
all files from the overlay root tree and the image archives.
The function changes the ownership of all that files to
root:root if they don\'t belong to a user in the passwd file.
files which belongs to passwd users are not touched and
therefore must be added with the correct owner:group setup
in the overlay tree and/or archive

Mon Mar 28 14:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed perl warning (uninitialized variable) and a checker error
when building an ISO image without setting the \'flags\' attribute.

the array and write a more reliable mdadm.conf file (bnc #678076)

Wed Mar 23 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed format string of hexdump. If the mbrid has leading
zero\'s the hexdump call removes them which leads to an
error when string matching the mbrid

- DB: update documentation, new attribute prefer-license

Mon Mar 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for the repository attribute \'prefered-license\'
The repository providing this flag will be used to install
the license tarball due to request in bnc #633664. If no repo
with a prefered license flag exists the search happens over
all repos but it\'s not guaranteed in that case that the search
order follows the repo order like they are written into
the XML description (bnc #680886)

Mon Mar 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation and examples, new element oem-silent-boot

Mon Mar 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed examples, added boot.local script to the suse-live-stick
example which allows to mount the fat boot partition as data
container below /media/stickstorage

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed kiwirevision check. In case of a git revision it\'s

- DB: update documentation, kiwirevision specifies a git commit id

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.82 released

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed exit code handling:

* kiwi --help | -h => exit 0

* unknown option => exit 1

* no root privileges => exit 1

* processsing error => exit 1

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- move the knowledge about the default package manager from
the KIWIManager object into the XML object. This is a configuration
value and thus the default should be in the part of the code
that processes the configuration

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added a new target to the Makefile to allow the execution of a
single unit test, i.e. support \'make KIWIXMLValidator.t\'
This is useful when working on unit tests as it allows to
execute only the test being worked on.

Thu Mar 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file. perl-satsolver from the 11.4 distro doesn\'t
contain the code changes Klaus made during the Studio workshop
Therefore kiwi provides the required version now in the
Virtualization:Appliances repo for 11.4 (bnc #680549)

Thu Mar 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed 11.3 and 11.4 JeOS templates. openssl-certs doesn\'t exist
there anymore. I replaced it by ca-certificates

Thu Mar 17 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- increased size of boot partition from 60M to 100M. If
mkinitrd is called it might happen that /boot runs
out of space

Wed Mar 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- The ISO generation code allows for either genisoimage or mkisofs.
The checker does not support this. The patch addresses this problem
and the checker no will be happy if either genisoimage or mkisofs
is found (bnc #680148)

Wed Mar 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typos in ppc boot scripts (spaces at end of line, tab mismatches)
and adapt latest noarch code changes from x86 boot scripts to ppc
- removed 01-console.sh from ppc JeOS template. That\'s done by the
setupConsole() function in suse-preinit

Wed Mar 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fix the VMware image example. The example does not contain
necessary packages for a graphical user interface, thus
setting window manager and runlevel in config.sh to imply
that a GUI environment is present is misleading

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed device map cleanup. The cleanup happened to early
because the installBootLoader() code accesses the device
map under certain circumstances but the original device
was already freed. In that case the installBootLoader()
code re-adds the mapping but that could lead to a different
device name compared to the one stored in the device
mapping table

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- prevent the use of File::Path qw(make_path remove_tree) because
it\'s not compatible to File::Path qw(mkpath rmtree) in older
perl versions

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed race condition in CD device search, missing udevPending
- fixed wrong mountCalled variable setup, the return code of the
mount call was not checked. So even if the mount failed the
variable was set to \'yes\' which leads to an umount of the root
filesystem before the root filesystem was activated

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed local sle11 repo assigned to 11.4 net|oemboot boot image
description. This was to pull in busybox but I don\'t want sle
busybox in 11.4 to avoid compatibility problems (bnc #679659)

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed busybox from boot image descriptions for 11.4. It\'s
not distributed with the 11.4 media anymore (bnc #679660)

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added new consistency check to assure that all credentials
used with any specified \"https\" repository are the same. Further
the consistency check verifies that the username and password
attributes are always used together.

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for https repositories for zypper with username
and password. Here is an example specification:



kiwi now writes a credentials file and takes advantage of
the zypper support for this file. This patch also addresses
the problem that in the current implementation we end up using
the build system zypper configuration file \"zypper.conf\"
as zypper is called without the \"--config\" option.

Tue Mar 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, https support added for zypper

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed the udev trigger call which must only be called
one time after the udev daemon has started (bnc #668014)

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setup of the loader initrd variable. Normally this variable
is set via the kernel commandline but in case of a PXE setup it
might be missing. In that case we check if the bootloader is
present as .profile variable in kiwi_bootloader and set loader
appropriately

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed OEM PXE installation code. Wrong function name, checkServer
was renamed into pxeCheckServer and the image file in case of a
pxe installation is gzip compressed not squashfs embedded

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, fixed typos

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file, kiwi-desc-usbboot was dropped

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added netboot root configuration check. The NFSROOT setup in
combination with clicfs is not allowed. It doesn\'t make sense
because it requires the clicfs process to run on the NFS server
which would allow to connect only one station safely. AOEROOT
or NBDROOT should be used in combination with clicfs instead

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added kernel-firmware package to boot images

Mon Mar 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, added a section about OEM -> pxe install

Fri Mar 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.81 released

Fri Mar 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added function resetBootBind() which turns the bind mounted
boot path into a standard distro path which allows kernel
updates. resetBootBind() is only called if mkinitrd can
be used according to the image root filesystem setup. Along
with the resetBootBind change we also had to fix the setup
of the fat boot partition if the syslinux bootloader is used.
Normally there is a link named boot -> . but on fat we can\'t
have links so the data has to be moved. (bnc #678159)

Fri Mar 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- adapt recent changes to x86 linuxrc to the s390 code stream

Fri Mar 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo in motd message of 11.4 JeOS

Fri Mar 11 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation for ramonly attribute

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed syslinux boot partition setup, links on fat does not exist

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added optional type attribute ramonly=\"true\" which forces
the COW device in a overlay filesystem setup to point to the
main RAM memory

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update schema documentation

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of $main::FatStorage. I put it too late
in the code so that the overall disk size wasn\'t adjusted

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed usbboot boot image and usb image type from kiwi. The
obsolete usb image type has been replaced by the hybrid iso
image type or by the oem image type.

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation and removed the suse-live-stick examples.
- DB: suse-live-stick are now handled by the hybrid iso examples

Thu Mar 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added more careful grub install check

Wed Mar 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- When mounting the hybrid boot drive, select the partition
marked as bootable instead of blindly mounting the first one.
This change makes it possible to update the system if the
image has been written to a writable medium.

Wed Mar 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, man page update (new options)

Wed Mar 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed syslinux boot device setup if LVM is used

Wed Mar 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make the creation of USB sticks more Windows friendly.
For a detailed description how this is done watch the
bug report: (bnc #677246)

Tue Mar 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file for s390 build

Tue Mar 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed spec file for ppc build

- netboot: allow network boot in degraded raid mode (bnc #668014)
- netboot: remove superblocks from raid disks if RAID
has been dectivated in config. (bnc #668014)

Fri Mar 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for the ncpus attribute on the
element. It is used to set the number of virtual cpus for a
VM and written to .vmx and .xenconfig

Thu Mar 3 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed xsl stylesheet convert47to48.xsl. existing lvmvolumes
section wasn\'t translated into systemdisk section

Thu Mar 3 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added KIWICommandLine and KIWIRuntimeChecker modules. The command
line module is a storage container for the commandline options
passed to kiwi. It\'s used to transport the data into other objects.
One successor of KIWICommandLine is the KIWIRuntimeChecker module
which does some checks while kiwi runs. This means kiwi reads in
the image description and after that the runtimer checker checks
if it is possible to build the desired image according to the
specified information. If that tests are passed kiwi enters the
actual processing mode which is either the image prepare or create.
This is useful to exit early if some option combination or data
set is valid according to the XML schema but can\'t be build due
to other reasons.

Thu Mar 3 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update RNG schema ec2region comment

Thu Mar 3 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- make sure size parameter is used without adding kernel
and initrd space if the given size is big enough.

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed smart packages
- export PBL_SKIP_BOOT_TEST=1 to allow mkinitrd to install

- adapt kiwi.spec to recommend zypper only

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.80 released

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- export meta data location content keys for ftp tree medias

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- ftp medias beside first one should not provide the product

- don\'t ignore blocksize value from config. (bnc #675004)

Fri Feb 25 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for --recycle-root option which allows to use
and modify an existing root tree while in the kiwi prepare
step.

Fri Feb 25 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.79 released

Fri Feb 25 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- The default tftp block size chosen by kiwi is too small and
not aligned to page size (4096), so it causes unnecessary
overhead. This patch improves loading performance a lot

Thu Feb 24 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- just compare the major version of squashfs kernel module and squashfs tools (bnc #674653)

Thu Feb 24 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- parse all available product file not just the first one

Thu Feb 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed -z test for RELOAD_CONFIG variable in netboot

Thu Feb 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added unit testing for the KIWILocator object

Thu Feb 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added ensconce parameter -i imagename which contains
the contents of the name attribute. ensconce requires this
to distinguish between system image and initrd image

Wed Feb 23 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- Using here documents with tabs in front of the limit
string works but is not recommended. Tabs are ignored
when searching for the limit string but spaces are not,
in which case the here document ends at the next occurence
of the limit string or at the end of the file with some
shells not even issuing a warning

Wed Feb 23 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value if an improper
configuration directory is specified

Tue Feb 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- added check to enforce the \"no whitespace\" rule for profile names

Tue Feb 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- enhanced patternType check which now allows the use of the patternType
attribute for all specifications that add packages to the
image

Tue Feb 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suse-min-gnome example, empty vmx package section doesn\'t make sense

Tue Feb 22 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- v4.75 released

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed default behavior for oem-swap. If not specified the default
should be to create a swap partition. This was accidently changed

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: fixed description about default partitions created

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- allow creation of ec2 format even without credentials. In that
case only the adaptions to the root image will be made but the
ec2-bundle process will be skipped

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value in squashfs version check

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation according to the pxe raid feature change

Fri Feb 18 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- changed raid 1 support for pxe images. The former implementation
can only use raid for the root partition. This implementation
allows a custom partition table to be mapped in one raid 1 per
partition

Wed Feb 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed linuxPartition() to be fine with a raid partition too

Wed Feb 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed raid partition setup. The wrong id was set. If there
is only one raid partition on the disk fdisk doesn\'t require
a number for the \'t\' command

Wed Feb 16 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- restore copy of temporary files only if they are not provided
by the overlay tree. This affects /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed createSnapshotMap() to be able to setup snapshot tables
multiple times in a row. this requires unique table names

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed yast2 firstboot startup for old (sle10) init script
based startup sequence (bnc #660770)

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed build, unfortunately perl-Test-Unit doesn\'t exist in BS

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added unit test framework and some XML validation tests

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typos in XMLValidator output. This is
important for the unit test results

Tue Feb 15 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed testsuite from kiwi. The current --testsuite mode
has been removed because it has turned out that\'s it\'s unused
code. With this testsuite it was possible to run scripts
inside the kiwi created root tree and check their results.
Basically this is only useful for testing the root tree
integrity which can always be done outside of kiwi like
studio and slepos does. Along with the change we will add
unit tests for testing the XML error handling and I plan
to integrate an end-to-end testng framework which allows to
realy make sure the appliance works as expected

Mon Feb 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed location of radeon.ko (typo: missing drivers/)

- changed the filesystem type to ext3 for 11.2 oem example
because we found issues with ext4 on 11.2

Thu Feb 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed __addDefaultSplitNode() function. A cloneNode() call
is required if you add children from another DOM tree

Wed Feb 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- speedup prepare step with caches by skipping the bootstrap
installation. If there is a cache available we add the
bootstrap packages into the image package section and run
the rest of the installation procedure in one image
installation step

Wed Feb 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make use of zypper\'s autorefresh feature and don\'t call
zypper refresh manually anymore

Wed Feb 9 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- offer options to ignore specified but missing packages for product generation

Wed Feb 9 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- make a difference between arch modifiers (addarch and removearch) and
usage of a package (no modifier). This solves the last problem for openSUSE
biarch medias.

Wed Feb 9 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed netboot disk device check. In case of a ramdisk only
configuration there is no DISK set but the image download
should happen into the ramdisk device. Therefore the disk
device check was enhanced to check the ramdisk setup too

Tue Feb 8 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- fix arch= statement for real for multi arch medias, use only the subset
of global required archs and filtered one by arch= statement

Tue Feb 8 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- moved caching system over from clicfs to a device mapper
snapshot table. This seems to be more stable and leaves more
room for improvements

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- Revert wrong commit overriding package attributes on multi arch medias
This reverts commit 1ef1a8b62df61899480285051c9b725990685113.

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- avoid error message about undefined $manager variable when building a product

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
ignore missing debug packages, they may not get generated (esp on noarch packages).

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
handle autodetected src packages with correct arch (src or nosrc)

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation and examples due to new ec2region element

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for the child element for
. With this a user can specify one or multiple
target regions for the EC2 image. Specifying multiple
elements creates multiple AMIs. The main convenience is that one
does not have to look for the aki-... cryptic name for the PVGrub
boot kernel as the value gets embedded in the generated manifest.
Supported values are: AP-Singapore, EU-West, US-East, US-West

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
support blacklisting of packages via onlyarch=\"\"

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
report about all missing packages and abort afterwards, not at the first missing package.

Mon Feb 7 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
take care about arch= package statement for product required architectures

Fri Feb 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- DB: update documentation: Added information about plain:// source
- DB: update documentation: Improved smb:// paragraph

Tue Feb 1 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed squashfs version check

Tue Feb 1 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation, removed wrong version information

Tue Feb 1 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for plain:// url types. They forward the URL
(everything following \"plain://\") unmodified to the package
manager. This can be used if kiwi does not support a special
URL but the package manager does

Tue Feb 1 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed smb mount. Leave // to indicate the share name and make
sure we create a unique mount point with mktemp instead of using
the share name as base

Tue Feb 1 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation from review

Mon Jan 31 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

Mon Jan 31 13:00:00 2011 adrianAATTsuse.de
- Fail hard on missing packages during product build.
This is requested with high prio from coolo, we need to make this
an option later on.

Fri Jan 28 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.72 released

Fri Jan 28 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- added partition ID information into progress information when
installing the system in partition install mode

Wed Jan 26 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed lvresize calls in kiwi which are all missing the \'+\' prefix
- fixed createSnapshotMap() to know about LVM volumes
- fixed partition based installation with LVM image. The dialog for
boot and root partition selection was broken and there is also a
small fix improving the progress information when installing the
image partitions to the disk partitions

Tue Jan 25 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- reverted the following commits:
eeecf05d029e7e75abfc44a5c2c600263838c50e
438e83976cbd12dde20511ea5d000620082fa066
They broke the yast autoyast and firstboot setup. The provided
config-yast-autoyast.xml or config-yast-firstboot.xml were not
handled anymore

Mon Jan 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed fdisk support entirely except for changing the
partition table created by the isohybrid tool. parted can\'t
handle that table and therefore we use fdisk inside the
function createHybridPersistent() but nowhere else anymore

Mon Jan 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- update schema and kiwi documentation

Mon Jan 24 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed partition selection in OEMFindPartitions(). Don\'t
take any other than 0x83 partition types into account

Fri Jan 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- change the layout of the install ISO / USB stick. The raw
disk image on the install media was compressed using gzip. The
downside is that it\'s not possible to loop mount the compressed
file. But for partition based installations this is required.
Therefore the raw disk image is now packed into a squashfs
filesystem (bnc #665888)

Fri Jan 21 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typos in kiwi_oemunattended and kiwi_oemswap evaluation
which caused wrong content in the oemconfig file

Thu Jan 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for gparted in partition based oem installation
If the partition table does not provide the correct layout
we start a X session with some descriptive message window
and the gparted tool to be able to change the partition
table
Author: Bernhard M. Wiedemann

$imageBootDevice to the setupBootPartition() function in
order to prevent unused mount actions for /boot
Author: Bernhard M. Wiedemann

Thu Jan 20 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed typo in use of oem-shutdown element

Fri Jan 14 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evalutation of patternType attribute

Thu Jan 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure fixupFDiskSectors() only fixes the first partition
start sector and doesn\'t touch the others (bnc #664236)

Thu Jan 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure fixupFDiskSectors() is called on a non busy table (bnc #664236)

Thu Jan 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed fdisk setup in alignment mode. fdisk is not able
to suggest the correct next sector if called with the
option \"-u\". Therefore only one partition is created in
that mode and the rest is created in fdisk cylinder
based mode (bnc #664236)

Thu Jan 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added new module KIWILocator which perform operations to
locate objects needed by Kiwi in the filesystem. Along with
the new module other code parts which did that before has
been replaced

Thu Jan 13 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for satsolver bindings provided with the
perl-satsolver package

Mon Jan 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed syslinux/isolinux configuration for disk based
images. Several problems like missing branding files,
write checks in not existing directories and file checks
in wrong directories were found

Mon Jan 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed syslinux/isolinux config for non graphics boot setup

Mon Jan 10 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de

settings from /etc/sysconfig/kernel but append to them

Tue Jan 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- revert last commit, broken patch

Tue Jan 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fix sed expression which removes the architecture suffix
from the image name. The expression failed if the architecture
is also part of the name so it changed to match the suffix
at the end of the name string only

Tue Jan 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t call setupConsole twice if systemIntegrity is fine
in kiwi netboot code. Also make sure unsetFile(), called
on the dhcp info file, is called before the interface is
released

Tue Jan 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed releaseNetwork() to cleanup /dev/.sysconfig as well
as unset the variables from the dhcp info file which has been
exported into the root shell environment. Those variables
caused conflicts with the network scripts in /etc/init.d

Tue Jan 4 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed obsolete config file from suse-11.3/suse-live-stick

pool and fixed bootloader setup when using clicfs images

Mon Jan 3 13:00:00 2011 msAATTsuse.de
- removed old and unmaintained ppc code

Wed Dec 22 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added check for first sector start after repartitioning via
fdisk. The start sector must be the same before and after the
repartitioning (bnc #659865)

Tue Dec 21 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure bootincluded packages and archives are not
removed by the initrd strip down functions. This is done
by introdudcing two new functions in KIWIConfig.sh:

* basePackBootIncludes

* baseUnpackBootIncludes
whereas the first one packs the bootinclude files and the
second one unpacks them again. The standard boot image
descriptions provided by kiwi uses that functions to make
sure all bootincluded files can be restored at the end of
the strip down functions called in image.sh (bnc #660743)

Fri Dec 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.69 released

Wed Dec 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- if ensconce is used the pattern/package list is already solved.
In that case it doesn\'t make sense to do solving with satsolver
again. We are using the list provided by ensconce as solved list
directly in that case.

Wed Dec 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed ensconce call and parameters:

* ensconce now resides in /usr/bin, so we can call it that way

* pass -b parameter to ensconce, since bootstrap is obsolete

* pass proper root parameter to ensconce

Wed Dec 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed profile request handling when kiwi invokes itself

Wed Dec 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed functions ignoreRepositories() and addRepository to
correctly update the DOM tree and not only the internal
hash structures

Wed Dec 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed warning message when using int() on empty string

Mon Dec 13 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of .buildenv

Fri Dec 10 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- renamed modprobe.conf.local to modprobe.d/99-local.conf on
systems which doesn\'t support the old conf file anymore

Fri Dec 10 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.68 released

Thu Dec 9 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed location of local modprobe configuration file.
The new place is in /etc/modprobe.d/99-local.conf. Only if this
doesn\'t exist we will use /etc/modprobe.conf.local

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make baseSetupInPlaceGITRepository more useful

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed initial value (set it to empty) for INITRD_MODULES

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed obsolete setImageType() function from KIWIXML

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make use of the --check-config modus in kiwi to validate
and check the kiwi provided XML configurations within the
Makefile.

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suse-SLE11-JeOS to validate correctly. It\'s not
allowed to have multiple import=\"true\" attributes set.
Therefore the profile setup for this JeOS XML changed

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added Option --check-config which validates the XML using the
new KIWIXMLValidator module. Along with the new module validation
from KIWIXML has been moved into the KIWIXMLValidator object

Wed Dec 8 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of createImageUSB() which has changed its name
into createImageRootAndBoot()

Tue Dec 7 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot partition setup for non mkinitrd supported setups

Tue Dec 7 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added updateTypeList() function in KIWIXML which is required
if an accessor function changes the XML tree the internal data
structures needs to be updated too

Tue Dec 7 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t overwrite the zypp repo data when in recovery mode (bnc #657922)

Tue Dec 7 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed cache creation

Mon Dec 6 13:00:00 2010 adrianAATTsuse.de
fix build for factory (openSUSE 11.4)

Mon Dec 6 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added KIWIXML methods __populateProfiles() and __populateTypeInfo
which are gathering the profile and type information as they are
set by the XML description. Along with this change the following
methodes have changed: __populateDefaultProfiles
and __populateProfiledTypeInfo. They both read the data structures
created by the first two and assign a new data structure
according to the selected profiles.

Mon Dec 6 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed unneeded KIWIXML instance from KIWIBoot. The KIWIBoot
constructor creates one instance of KIWIXML which is sufficient
for all operations

Mon Dec 6 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed parameter list in \'new KIWIXML\' instances

Sat Dec 4 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed repository update in __updateDescriptionFromChangeSet()

Fri Dec 3 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.67 released

Fri Dec 3 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make addDefaultSplitNode() a private helper method
called __addDefaultSplitNode(). Also fixed that function to
work correctly. It should add the default split mode for all
relevant types (iso and split) and add the section only if
those types doesn\'t already implement a split section

Thu Dec 2 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup KIWIImage and main kiwi code. The global variables
ForeignRepo and ImageName has been removed. Additionally the
KIWIXML constructor doesn\'t have the ForeignRepo hash in
its parameter list. Inside KIWIXML the entire foreign data
setup has been changed into methods creating and applying
a changeset. Therefore a temporary global hash XMLChangeSet
has been introduced. After apply of the changeset it will
be removed directly. Along with the cleanup the creation
and check for boot and prebuilt images has been moved into
functions. The preparation step of kiwi now also writes back
the internal XML changes into the XML file. Last but not
least the global variable ImageDescription has been introduced
which stores in prepare and create mode the path to the
base image description which is required to know the location
of bootincluded archives and this:// repos

Wed Dec 1 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed xml inheritance. This feature was never used

Tue Nov 30 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- restructured XML data processing by adding the following
KIWIXML methods: __populateTypeInfo() and __populateImageTypeAndNode()
The first method creates the %typeInfo hash which contains all
possible elements according to the selected profiles. The
second method operates on the %typeInfo hash and initializes
those part of the hash which represents the requested image type
or the primary type or the first type read in. Both methodes are
called only _once_ inside the object constructor. The existing method
getImageTypeAndAttributes() has changed to simply return the selected
part of the %typeInfo hash and does _not_ change any object data
as done before.

Tue Nov 30 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added check that only one type with image=\"myName\" exists
per

Tue Nov 30 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value in KIWIXML processing

Mon Nov 29 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- if logfile option is specified along with --init-cache set the
logfile to the \'terminal\' mode. That\'s because in that mode
multiple logfiles per cache are created and it wouldn\'t make
much sense to have them in one file. If the output is on the
terminal the user can decide himself for the redirection

Mon Nov 29 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- require clicfs >= 1.3.9 due to major bugs in former versions

Mon Nov 29 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed __checkReferencedProfDefined to work with sections
defining more than one profile like netboot does

Mon Nov 29 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed invalid numeric expression in reqProfiles
- added __populateDefaultProfiles according to XML restructuring
and removed setDefaultProfiles

- fixed use of undefined value as an ARRAY reference

Fri Nov 26 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed unused cleanInitrd() function

Fri Nov 26 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure bootstrap packages are handled when using a cache
- fixed time when KIWIImage.pm mounts the overlay and provide
a function getImageTree() which returns the currently used
root tree. Move the recovery creation, profile update, and
cleanup after the KIWIImage module creation

Fri Nov 26 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed overlay setup for KIWIBoot modules. Only if a cow
file exists in the given system image path it\'s required to
setup the overlay mount

Fri Nov 26 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t create new kiwi object if there is already one available

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- check image type only if a preferences section is present

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed profile check in create mode

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- cleanup xenconfig setup by removing conditions that no longer apply
due to the removal of the xen image type which is now handled
by the vmx/oem type flavoured with xen and xenk profiles

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure the package manager is added only once to the
list when in --info mode

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed dumpsolv regexp which searches for pattern names

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed creation of boot image caches. It\'s required to prevent
the kernel extraction from the cache because this is done in
the preparation process which uses the cache
- don\'t allow logfile option when in init-cache mode. This is
because each cache has its own logfile living in the cache
directory

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed minor code duplication inside the RNC schema

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- deactivate compression for clicfs caches (faster)
- fixed and cleaned up profile evaluation and use

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 adrianAATTsuse.de
make \"mk_listings\" call during product generation optional

Thu Nov 25 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- explicitly call SuSEconfig --module permissions. This module
is no longer called by the default SuSEconfig call so we need
to call it directly

Wed Nov 24 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added the following consistency checks:

* only 1 profile may be marked as default via import=\"true\"

* only 1 type per spec may be set as default via primary=\"true\"

* only 1 spec may reference 1

* only 1 specification without a profiles=... attribute

* check that all references used via profiles=\"aName\" attribute have
a definition of

Wed Nov 24 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- require specific clicfs version because the version before
has severe problems when writing to a cow file

Tue Nov 23 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t preserve rpm database on recovery. This could cause
an inconsistent rpm database. Not preserving it could cause
an incomplete but consistent database which is better. For
reference a copy of the old database is stored in
/var/lib/rpm.backup

Mon Nov 22 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- follow up: make sure system filesystems and mount options corresponds
with the default settings we use in a standard installation with yast

Mon Nov 22 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed cleanImage() function to cleanly umount partitions before
calling init. Also make sure cleanImage reports its actions
as part of the boot.kiwi logfile
- make sure system filesystems and mount options corresponds with
the default settings we use in a standard installation with yast

Mon Nov 22 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo in option description

Fri Nov 19 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.65 released

* rebuild documentation

* rebuild schema documentation

Fri Nov 19 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added an oem hook named: preCallInit which runs right before
init is called or in case of a reboot/halt request right before
that reboot (bnc #654404)

Fri Nov 19 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure /dev is bind mounted when installing the very
first bootstrap packages.

Thu Nov 18 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: update documentation

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- put package manager into solver list when calling
kiwi --select ... --info packages
- fixed clicfs mount in cache mount code:

* we don\'t want reserved blocks

* we don\'t want automatic filesystem check

* we don\'t want to use --ignore-cow-errors
- deactivate automatic cache creation and introduce a new
operation mode called kiwi --init-cache. Caches needs to
be created in a separate call. This has turned out to be
more flexible and prevent customer confusion
- add default cache image location: /var/cache/kiwi/image
which can be overwritten by the --cache option. If one want
to use caches in prepare or create mode it\'s required to
select the cache location with this option.
- removed baseroot attribute and defaultbaseroot element
from XML description. baseroot has been replaced by the
clicfs based caching process
- don\'t leave .broken inside the tree if it is not broken
- cleanup the overlay preparation code. The code is in
KIWIOverlay.pm exclusively. At each code point which
requires it we create a KIWIOverlay object and let it
control the overlay mount

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- DB: add documentation about PXE hardware maps

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation for oem-unattended mode

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- if in oem-unattended mode and we found more than one disk for
installation, use the first disk found by hwinfo

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fix bug in the format conversion from raw to qcow2.
The \'convert\' command to qemu-mig was missing.

Wed Nov 17 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- move the two consistency checks (kiwirevision and
version format) out of the KIWIXML constructor and into
their own methods
- Implement a new consistency check, __checkFilesysSpec().
This method assures that the \'filesystem\' attribute is used
for image types that require the attribute

Tue Nov 16 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed creation and use of kiwi caches for boot images
also make sure the same clicfs cache is mounted only once
and is released in case of an exception

Tue Nov 16 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: fixed incorporation of hardware maps
- netboot: evaluate additional VENDOR_CONF value

- update RNG schema due to last change to the RNC schema

Tue Nov 16 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added new element text which
allows the user to specify raw text that ends up in the .vmx
or .xenconfig file. Certain default options currently written by
Kiwi may be over written by these settings. Therefore the use
of this option happens on your own risk. No validation of the
raw text is performed.

Mon Nov 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- verify format used for the mac address when specifying
the attribute on the vmnic element.

Mon Nov 15 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- move the XML validation and loading to it\'s own methods
- added image consistency checks into KIWIXML as addition to
the XSLT stylesheet processor. The function __validateConsistency
provides a place to add consistency checks:

* Added check: __checkPostDumpAction which ensures that only
one of oem-bootwait, oem-reboot, oem-reboot-interactive,
oem-shutdown or oem-shutdown-interactive is specified.

Wed Nov 10 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added xsl stylesheet to convert images which uses the image=\"xen\"
type into an appropriate image=\"vmx\" type because the xen image
type was removed. Additionally increased schema version to v5.0
with this change

Tue Nov 9 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- netboot: added support for hardware maps. Hardware maps are
configuration files for a given range of MAC addresses. If a client
of the specified range boots up the corresponding hardware map
file will be loaded and merged with the default configuration.
That way you can specify in one config file configurations dedicated
to different machines. Example config.
...
HARDWARE_MAP=\"vendor1, vendor2, vendor3\"
vendor1_HARDWARE_MAP=\"xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:x1, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:x2\"
...
if client xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:x1 boots up the file hardware_config.vendor1
is additionally loaded from the pxe boot server

- fixed check for xvc/hvc consoles (bnc #650667)

Tue Nov 2 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- keeping old boot files in /boot and trying to copy
in newly generated initrd + kernel during image startup
could result in not enough space on /boot partition for LVM
enabled builds. This patch fixes that by removing the old
kernel + initrd, before copying in the new one.

Tue Nov 2 13:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

pattern names. ensonce uses an already resolved manifest file
and thus it\'s not required to solve the patterns via
satsolver (bnc #643442)

Mon Oct 11 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- changed the lvmvolumes section into systemdisk like the
following example shows:


...

- update to new schema version 4.8 due to the systemdisk change
- if systemdisk is specified a lvm setup is implicitly requested.
Therefore also the attribute \'lvm\' from the type section was removed
- Also the oem-home element was removed with this change. A volume
instead of a single partition should be used.
- wrote a xslt stylesheet for the following conversions:

* remove lvm attribute

* move lvmvolumes element into systemdisk

* move lvmgroup attribute into name

* if oem-home is set create a systemdisk setup with a home volume
- update documentation due to the systemdisk change

for 4k-sector size disks (logical 512 byte) with fdisk was added
when using parted the -align option is used in any case though.
In order to use the alignment when fdisk is used the oemconfig
element oem-align-partition must be set to \'true\' (bnc #637333)

is used

Mon Sep 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- According to the documentation [1], parted uses SI prefixes when
reporting sizes. Cylinder size is thus reported in 1000 Bytes,
not 1024 Bytes. This caused partitions which were created using
cylinder offsets to have a wrong size. This patch fixes that by
correcting constants in offset calculation. It also removes the
magic multiplication constant used when creating LVM volumes.

Mon Sep 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- fixed mount() function to work with disk files too

Thu Sep 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- if the --targetdevice option is set, create the image file
by dumping bytes from the targetdevice. Also make sure the free
space of the filesystem on the targetdevice is filled with
zero bytes to gain a better compression result of the image
file. --targetdevice is currently used for s390 DASD devices

Thu Sep 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- moved documentation from LaTeX to DocBook, PDF and HTML provided

Tue Sep 7 14:00:00 2010 rootAATTsuse.de
- fixed s390 support for DASD devices. The main problem here is
the detection of the disk. kiwi stores the busid value from the
disk it used to create the image on in the kernel cmdline.
We also had to add a function which set this disk online before
we can access it via the device node

Tue Sep 7 14:00:00 2010 rootAATTsuse.de

This first version is still missing a few things, therefore the
LaTeX source is still in place and preferred

Tue Aug 31 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure the lvm attribute is part of the .profile environment
of the kiwi boot images. The value is exported as $kiwi_lvm. The
searchVolumeGroup() function only operates if kiwi_lvm is set
to true
- moved the message text \'Searching for $VGROUP volume group\'
into the searchVolumeGroup() function and remove it from all
boot image linuxrc\'s

Mon Aug 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added sync call before umounting the filesystems. Reasons
for this workaround is the kernel problem in (bnc #15906)

Fri Aug 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t call the grub binary from the image this could lead
to problems when the grub binary is linked against a library
which doesn\'t exist on the build machine. Therefore we use
the grub binary installed on the build machine (kiwi requires
grub for vmx and oem now) and bind mount the grub stage
files in boot/grub from the image to the build machine
while grub is called

Fri Aug 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.58 released

Fri Aug 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed yum package check. the \'list available\' command is not
suitable for already installed packages. Therefore we use \'list all\'
which also works for already installed packages

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- changed iso image type for RHEL template to use clicfs
instead of squashfs

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added clicfs for RHEL 5.4 to kiwi rhel repo

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed clicfs mount by not using losetup on the clicfs file
before mounting it via the clicfs command. The clicfs command
now get the clicfs file directly. Problem here was that with
a loop clicfs is no longer able to read the size of the clicfs
file which results in unexpected behavior (bnc #629543)
- Related to that fix clicfs based caching now works stable

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- call dhcpcd with the option --noipv4ll to be able to check the
return code of dhcpcd and to prevent the interface from an ip address
if there was a DHCP timeout (bnc #634057)

Wed Aug 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added package/group check before yum is called to install
packages/groups. This is done because there are yum versions
which silently ignore missing items and proceed installing
the rest.

Tue Aug 24 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed message about package installation when using ensconce
The problem was that it prints always the same message about
installing bootstrap packages even in non-chroot mode

Tue Aug 24 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t check the return code of dhcpcd it\'s always zero.
Therefore the check has been changed to check for the creation
of the /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-$PXE_IFACE.info file (bnc #634057)

Mon Aug 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added setup to templates. Use utc by default

Mon Aug 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- allow setup of HWCLOCK in /etc/sysconfig/clock via the
preferences element utc|localtime

Mon Aug 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- RHEL: fixed URL quoting when building with yum
- RHEL: added alternative search path for isolinux.bin

Mon Aug 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.57 released

Fri Aug 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed etc/motd for suse-11.3-JeOS. It was still saying this
is a 11.2 system, cut&paste bug :-)

Fri Aug 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suse-11.3/suse-min-gnome. Gnome is not working no
session and desktop information was installed

Fri Aug 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t use mkclicfs from image root tree. That will fail in
any case where the image buildsystem libraries doesn\'t match
the ones required by the mkclicfs binary inside the root tree

Fri Aug 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suse-11.3/suse-min-gnome example. Some X11 packages
where missing in order to boot up with a working X

Wed Aug 18 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed convert39to41.xsl schema conversion. The attributes
for the conversion from to were missing

Wed Aug 18 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed shell exception handling after the move mount of
devices. In that cases the tty devices are in /mnt/dev and
therefore any shell exception failed because the setctsid
call can\'t find the device. This is now fixed (bnc #608620)

Wed Aug 18 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed netboot building by providing atftp for SLE11 (bnc #632203)

Tue Aug 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update schema documentation

Tue Aug 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for selecting the default boot entry for a
kiwi install image. The optional attribute called
installboot can take the values \'install\' for standard
installation, \'failsafe-install\' for installation with
failsafe kernel parameters and \'harddisk\' which is the
default anyway if no installboot attribute was
given (bnc #624228)

Tue Aug 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation. XML elements and attributes are
now listed in the index

Tue Aug 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation. Better index page

Tue Aug 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation

Mon Aug 16 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed unused variable $device in mountSystem()

Mon Aug 16 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- put the code which deactivates the filesystem check
by resetting the mount counter into a function called
resetMountCounter(). Let resetMountCounter also check
the filesystem type to be able to distinguish different
filesystem tools (bnc #627021)

Fri Aug 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation, fixed Makefile and changed box frame
layout into two horizintal lines

Fri Aug 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation. Some style changes for code boxes
which now allows also cut&paste

Fri Aug 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- disable filesystem check for kiwi managed partitions
using tune2fs -c -1 -i 0 $device (bnc #627021)

Wed Aug 11 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.56 released

Wed Aug 11 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed permissions and ownership setup of read-write part in
split images. The problem here was that the read-write part is
created as new directory structure belonging to root. Therefore
it\'s required to update permissions and ownership from the original
tree afterwards in the same as it\'s done for the read-only and
temporary parts

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make use of the --recursive feature of insserv and remove
my own recursice insserv implementation which has to parse
the insserv output and therefore always fail if that output
changes (bnc #627480)

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added acpi modules to kiwi\'s oemboot initrd. This is required
mostly for fan control on laptops and therefore very important
for the preload images running on laptops to prevent overheating
of the devices

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed hybrid persistent feature. The check for the bios
protection was broken which caused the creation of the
persistent write partition to be skipped.
- added support for the kernel option wipecow=1. This option
allows to wipe an eventually existing cow file on a hybrid
iso image to start from scratch

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- changed suse-11.3/suse-live-stick example to use the hybrid
iso technology

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed coding style for driverupdate support in inst-sys mode
also fixed DB comments in schema for driverupdate section

Tue Aug 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation and man pages. some formal and
consistency changes over the entire document

Mon Aug 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation. Thanks to Thomas Schraitle

Mon Aug 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- pxe: make sure the CONF contents are evaluated even if
the image is downloaded to RAM only instead of a persistent
device.

Mon Aug 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added missing xml object reference to foreign repo hash
when building a split image

Mon Aug 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- setup overlay mount method in create mode if the file
$Create/kiwi-root.cache exists

Mon Aug 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation. Thanks to Thomas for providing the patch

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.55 released

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed typo in config.xml search in overlay mount function

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- turn main::Prepare into an abspath

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- make sure the cache holds the correct copy of the base image
and not the cache image XML

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added arch information into caches

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update documentation, patch by Thomas Schraitle

Fri Aug 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- moved cache creation into functions initializeCache()
selectCache() and createCache()
- added meta information into root tree if cow cache is used.
It\'s required to have the name of the cache clicfs available
when running kiwi create on a root tree created with a
clicfs based cache

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- improve caching by creating clicfs files from
the single caches and mount them with a cow file for
further operations.... still experimental

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed xen/ec2 examples to clone services into runlevel 4
which is required by EC2

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- changed ec2 account number back to default

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed boot image checksum creation in Makefile

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- EC2: changed the way how ec2 images are created. We now bundle
the ami from a raw disk Xen image using the ec2 kernel. Along
with this change the xenboot boot image became obsolete and was
removed in a previous commit. Support for Xen is now only availabe
via disk image and Xen must support PVgrub in order to boot it

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- EC2: update documentation about EC2 and Xen support

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- EC2: removed support for xenboot boot images, xen/ec2 is disk based now

Thu Aug 5 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- EC2: removed suse-ec2-guest examples
- EC2: added ec2Flavour into suse-xen-guest examples
- EC2: changed suse-xen-guest examples image type to vmx with xen/ec2 kernel

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed changelog creation tool. Don\'t include information about
branch merges or commits which just copied a changelog entry for
a previos commit into the kiwi.changes file. We also don\'t include
the svn to git conversion information as I think it\'s not required

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added xen guest example for 11.3

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 ugAATTsuse.de
- fixed respect write protection for Live medium (SD-card)
bnc#623038

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed MBR rewrite call in installBootLoader()

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed check for foreign packages. The problem here was that the
correct packages sections were checked for matching the profiles
of the boot image but they should be checked against the profiles
of the system image.

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t check the return value of the e2fsck call. If the
filesystem check was forced for example by a wrong system
clock the check runs successfully but the return value is
not zero.

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed license display problem when no localized license files
exist but a license.txt file does

Wed Aug 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- add the vm guest example to openSUSE 11.3

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- create the kiwi.changes file from the git log information

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- add the live stick example to openSUSE 11.3

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- write back masterBootID (MBR ID) to the master boot record
after it has been changed by installBootLoader()

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added suse-euca-cloud examples for 11.3

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- reverted last change:
don\'t call root filesystem check for images (bnc #627021)
this causes the fs to remount read-only on newer versions
if suse; what a crappy reaction

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed repartition code for fdisk (SLE10) (bnc #627807)

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t call root filesystem check for images (bnc #627021)

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- if a fixed xml size was set for a filesystem image we use if
even if kiwi\'s calculation says it\'s too small. This allows users
to create the image with less or no free space but also could
cause the image to fail because of no space left on device.
We don\'t use the fixed xml size if it\'s too small for a virtual
disk based image though because this could cause the image to
be created successfully but then failed on boot which is a bad
user experience (bnc #627031)

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.54 released

Tue Aug 3 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of PARTED_... variables (bnc #627593)

Mon Aug 2 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added entire usb stack to initrd for SLE11 oemboot (bnc #627439)

Mon Aug 2 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.53 released

Mon Aug 2 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- again fixed the check for specific parted versions. I now
changed it to directly check for the available options in
parted instead of the parted version number

Mon Aug 2 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- when creating a new cpio image make sure an eventually
existing old version of .splash.gz will be removed

Fri Jul 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- put patterns into image package section instead of bootstrap
I discovered strange errors with older zypper versions when
building newer images

Fri Jul 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.52 released

Fri Jul 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added log information about used boot-theme

Fri Jul 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- clarify user creation and group association documentation
- some alpha ordering inside the schema

Thu Jul 29 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- support add-pattern option in upgrade mode too

Thu Jul 29 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- add changelog entry for last commit
- recreate documentation

Thu Jul 29 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- again fixed parted version setup

Wed Jul 28 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- again fixed PARTED_VER setup. older version strings looks different
than the new ones. We had to standardize those too

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed PARTED_VER setup and tests. If the parted version
is below or equal 1.8.8 we switch to fdisk. This applies for
sle10 where parted doesn\'t have some options which we require

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for image caching. With this feature you can
provide a cache directory along with the option --cache.
kiwi in prepare step looks into the directory if it finds
a cache serving as the base-root for the system image.
If it can\'t find one it creates caches based on the
patterns used in the image description which speeds
up subsequent prepare calls for this and other images

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed solvable cache if only one solvable is created it
was removed and not cached

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value for $dir

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed suse-11.3/suse-min-gnome example, added missing
icewm and a terminal :)

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t create splash initrd if it already exists

Tue Jul 27 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value for $overlay

Mon Jul 26 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed SLE10 boot images using gettext-runtime. This package
doesn\'t exist there, it was gettext only (bnc #625392)

Mon Jul 26 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- accidently removed an important return statement in
setupBootPartition

Mon Jul 26 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.51 released

Mon Jul 26 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed setupBootPartition() to return with a bootid
export in _any_ case. Default bootid is 1 (bnc #625379)

Fri Jul 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.50 released

Fri Jul 23 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed URL quoting, we have to distinguish the quoting
for local path URL\'s and network protocol URL\'s

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed xenconfig creation for vmx if no format was set

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed use of uninitialized value and test -z usage in bash code

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed locale validation and documentation as well as
some template examples provided by kiwi. The locale value
in kiwi is always a UTF-8 locale therefore it\'s not
allowed to add the encoding type to the locale string.
We also support the xx_XX locale style only which is
now all checked by the schema (bnc #620789)

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed documentation about the evaluation of the locale information

Thu Jul 22 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed locale setup for some examples

Wed Jul 21 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Tue Jul 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed changelog chronology

Tue Jul 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed oem recovery for LVM based images. It\'s required
to backup the LVM metadata in order to restore it

Tue Jul 20 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added main::isize function to replace the use of
the -s operator. This is done because of SUSE Studio
which maps a file to a block special under certain
circumstances which causes -s to not work anymore

Mon Jul 19 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.49 released

Sat Jul 17 14:00:00 2010 rootAATTsuse.de

- update ppc netboot image (copy of x86 version)

Fri Jul 16 14:00:00 2010 rootAATTsuse.de
- fixed Makefile boot image md5 creation time

Fri Jul 16 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.48 released

Fri Jul 16 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

a list of possible system mount paths in the right order
- netboot: fixed creation of read-write partition
- netboot: fixed boot partition setup, IFS restore required
- netboot: imageDiskDevice was not set but used

Thu Jul 15 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.47 released

Thu Jul 15 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed parted sector init if the disk has no partitions
we need to set startSectors to 1

Wed Jul 14 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.46 released

Wed Jul 14 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed kernelList and xenServer functions:

* xenServer checks via kernel systemMap and kiwi_xendomain
if a xen server bootloader setup is required

* kernelList is fixed to store the running kernel as first
entry in the kernel list

Wed Jul 14 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- do not fail when image files are symlinks to a device

Wed Jul 14 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed race condition resulting at times in message of not
finding the MBR and other times not finding the CD drive.

Tue Jul 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- put the information about the xen domain setup into the
initrd as variable kiwi_xendomain

Tue Jul 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- remove unneeded initrd.vmx and linux.vmx files _before_
calling mkinitrd. This saves space to not run into a space
problem on the boot partition (bnc #621859)

Tue Jul 13 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- usb attribute in vmwareconfig doesn\'t exist anymore with
the new machine section. usb is always present for vmware
fixed xslt stylesheet for this case

Fri Jul 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.45 released

Fri Jul 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- recovery tarball: tar is intelligent enough to find hard link references.
This causes the archive to be smaller. But when kiwi installs the root
tree into the image all hard link references will solve into a new inode.
According to this the recreation of the tarball in combination with an
inplace setup will always be bigger than the reference tarball from the
root tree and this causes the recovery partition and/or the free space
inside the root partition to be too small. I fixed this with the
following tar option: --hard-dereference

Fri Jul 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed convert38to39.xsl stylesheet

Fri Jul 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Thu Jul 8 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed evaluation of bool oem-inplace-recovery value

Thu Jul 8 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- moved in-place recovery file creation into suse-dump
directly after the install verification (bnc #620777)

Thu Jul 8 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- don\'t put the recovery meta information into the recovery tarball
when creating them dynamically

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- clean up setupFirstBootYaST() function

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed build for s390

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 rootAATTsuse.de
- improved s390 template

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- add some sanity checks

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed loop cleanup after zipl install

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed zipl.conf creation

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed zipl.conf creation

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed zipl.conf creation

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- leave tmpdir in case of an error while writing the bootloader

Wed Jul 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added zipl install into disk image file code

Tue Jul 6 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

based start value and a cylinder based end value

Thu Jul 1 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- call conversion module automatically but only if a format
was set in config.xml. Exception: the xen image type, which
requires a machine configuration but without a format conversion

Thu Jul 1 14:00:00 2010 adrianAATTsuse.de
Make volume id labels nicer on coolos request:

* Always strip -Media

* Do not add dots when stripping

- use format from xml if specified and not set on the commandline
for the conversion into another image format

Wed Jun 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed minor ovf creation bugs. Note old versions of ovftool will
not work with this version of kiwi because VMware changed the
option set of their own tool completely

Wed Jun 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- update image descriptions via xslt

Wed Jun 30 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added xslt stylesheet to convert from schema v4.6 to v4.7
the conversion moves the vmwareconfig and xenconfig sections

Also added function for creating the machine configuration
into this new module

* create common XML specification for vmware|xen config
starting with

* added new option --convert to kiwi.

* recursively call kiwi with $main::Convert set to convert
into the specified format and/or configuration

* added bool attributes installcd and installstick replacing
the old format=\"iso\" and format=\"usb\" setup

Mon Jun 28 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- moved the XML validation ahead of the first data extraction
- changed the way validation errors are reported. If the xml
file was converted via XSL the error will be reported
against the converted file. This makes the error reporting
more meaningful as otherwise validation errors are reported
that are due to the use of an older schema version.
- fixed typo in convert45to46.xsl. Do not swallow attributes
on packages of the vmware section
- Thanks to Robert who did the last three ones, great work :)

Fri Jun 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.43 released

Fri Jun 25 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed copy of root tree into final image. We used
cp -a $source/
* $dest which did not match the dot files
in $source/.
* Therefore I changed this to use a tar
based copy

Thu Jun 24 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added oem-inplace-recovery option which allows creation
of the recovery tarball at first deployment instead of
creating the tarball and store it inside the image

the image was dumped (installed) on the target device. A message
appears and the system waits for a key event before reboot

Wed Jun 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- reduce the scope of the eval around the config.xml file parsing.
The only operation that may fail with an exception is the parsing,
while accessing the resulting document does not generate
exceptions, thus the eval (exception handling) should only
enclose the code that actually may trigger an exception
- improve the XML validation error reporting if jing
is installed on the system

Wed Jun 9 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- use isolinux for install CD\'s if sys|extlinux was requested
as bootloader for an oem image plus install media (bnc #606651)
- fixed clicfs resize operation. The command is now based
on a 512 byte sector size value instead of a 4k filesystem block

filesystem (bnc #604646)

Fri May 21 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.37 released

Fri May 21 14:00:00 2010 ugAATTsuse.de

destination

Fri May 21 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- removed support for dmsquash filesystem. This implementation
was replaced by clicfs. dmsquash was a combination of a
squashfs filesystem together with a device mapper snapshot
as copy-on-write part. There was no way to properly react
if we run out of cow space which also makes this feature
more or less useles in a production environment

Fri May 21 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed size check for repart operation
- make sure home has a min size of 500 MB if home partition

a type=\"vmx\" section

Mon May 17 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for extlinux bootloader for vmx and usbboot.
support for extlinux and oemboot will follow later. The
repartition code of the oem images causes a more complex
implementation for sys|extlinux.

- some code cleanup in KIWIImage.pm, unused variables
- call mkclicfs from the installed root tree instead of the
build system to prevent version conflicts. If no clicfs
is installed by the image description a warning message is
displayed and the build system mkclicfs is used as
before (bnc #604646)

Mon May 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed min inode count when creating the virtual disk
from a root directory instead of a root image file

Mon May 10 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

- umountSystemFilesystems at the end of isoboot pre-init

Fri May 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- v4.34 released

Fri May 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed old live iso type (no flags set) to work again.
The problem was that we prevent --follow-symlinks in this
mode but then we also have to copy the fixed read-write
part as file to the iso structure instead of linking it.
This fix is related to (bnc #599712)

Fri May 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- typo in changelog

Fri May 7 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de

the case for filesystems like clicfs. This caused a wrong
copy of the initrd and prevents the system from being
able to reboot

Tue May 4 14:00:00 2010 msAATTsuse.de
- package scripts change: use File::lchown qw( lutimes ); for
changing the a|mtime of the symlinks inside the source tarball.
This means all people who use \"make build\" from the kiwi source

Tue Nov 24 13:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de
- v3.80
- fixed root tree creation build inconsistencies due to missing
libraries at the beginning of the root tree creation. Any glibc
linked program uses /etc/nsswitch.conf and from there requires
/lib(64)/libnss
* libraries to do user/group to id resolution.
If the operation happens chrooted, the libs needs to be there.
The fix will install the glibc package which provides these
libraries in a $root/baselibs directory first and moves them
to $root. After that process the package manager is again called
to install the bootstrap listed packages follewed by the rest
of the specified packages (bnc #536256)

Mon Nov 23 13:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de
- v3.79

handling to let preinit run like init. If preinit runs the
kernel already knows the system image root as / and preinit
always ends with exec init (bnc #521456)

Wed Nov 11 13:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de
- fixed exit code evaluation in Dialog function. The value of the
evaluated exit code was undefined because it depended on which
subshell finished first. The solution is to prevent parameter
subshells when building the dialog parameterlist (bnc #547864)

Mon Nov 9 13:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de

second find call for backup files. This increases the recovery
performance in repair mode. Additionally write backup diffs
to /tmp/backup (bnc #546057)

Tue Oct 20 14:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de
- added support for lang and keytable in cmdline. Support is

- prevent automatic CD eject on kiwi install. If the tray is
blocked (some servers hide their drives behind doors) the boot
CD/DVD with the OEM image ends up back in the machine. Therefore
we open a popup window asking to user to remove the install
media before continuing

Tue Oct 13 14:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de

- improved umount code for auto mount of removable storage
devices. The function umountDevice() takes over the task
of umounting all filesystems associated with the given
device
- use searchBIOSBootDevice for usbboot instead of USBStickDevice
since we have the unique MBR ID in place this is the better
method to search for the boot device

Wed Jun 24 14:00:00 2009 msAATTsuse.de
- the inode issue comes back to haunt us yet again. The last go
around actually made things
*worse
* for things like vmdk that
allocate large disks, since 2x the number of files is probably
much smaller than the \'automatic\' calculation used for a disk of
that size. The attached patch fixes this by removing the
--fs-numinodes option (which is useless, IMHO) and replaces it
with --fs-inoderatio. Kiwi will assume 16k for inode ratio if
not otherwise specified. We use the ratio to determine the number
of inodes, unless it is a smaller value than num_files
*2.

- fixed/changed clicfs over NFS use. When using a clicfs
image it\'s required that the clicfs filesystem is mounted
