* Tue May 21 2019 dcassanyAATTsuse.de- Set SERVER variable as expected by netboot code (#674) This commit sets $host from $SERVER variable if present and no $kiwiserver is given from the command line. The same criteria applies for $type and $SERVERTYPE variables. Fixes bsc#1133537
* Fri Feb 22 2019 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.48 released
* Thu Feb 21 2019 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed GCE image bundler and tarball name The GCE bundler still looks for the old name format and failed to find the image result.

* Mon Dec 10 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de- Revert \"Fixup kiwi-tools requirement\" This reverts commit 48011560e322266ca7eb55601af35895a24bcbf5. Former kiwi should kiwi-tools package even if it does not define it in spec. In those cases it will be provided by python-kiwi package. The requirement should not be effected by the kiwitools conditional. Fixes bsc#1118306
* Wed Nov 21 2018 BischoffAATTusers.noreply.github.com- Replace \'ifplugd\' with \'auto\' in STARTMODE (#670) Rationale: ifplugd seems deprecated (at least it cannot be found in SLE 12 SP3). It was already removed from template/ix86/suse-SLE12-JeOS/config.xml in commit c1c1c602245348f725d41d1457de85aa5a6f3f34 . Fixes bsc#1116729
* Thu Sep 27 2018 davidcassanyAATTgmail.com- Do not support installation stick without boot partition (#668) Installation stick bootloader configuration fails for the installation image (installstick=\"true\") if the image is not configured to use a boot partition. Given the fact the same functionallity can be achieved building installation hybrid ISOs this specific configuration is not supported. This commit adds a runtime check to ensure this combination is not set in the description file. Fixes bsc#1107906

The lookup of the process was based on a fuser call on the slelected tty. However it can happen that another process is also connected to the tty which does not allow for a stable detection of the debug shell process. This patch runs the debug shell as sub process of the calling terminal and uses the sub process pid This Fixes bsc#1075813

* Thu Nov 09 2017 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Keep Melanox and hyperv kernel modules in the initrd + Due to jitters in boot on Azure the drivers are not always found, keeping then in the initrd avoids the issue in the virtualized environment
* Thu Nov 09 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed blocksize setup in losetup The -L option was used to set the blocksize value for losetup However there is an option name clash between suse util-linux and upstream which now leads to the problem that option -L has changed its meaning and actually means --nooverlap which completely breaks the call in kiwi. This patch changes the call to use the long form --logical-blocksize. This Fixes bsc#1066873
* Fri Oct 13 2017 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.38 released
* Thu Oct 12 2017 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Keep NVMe drivers in the initrd to support systems with the root filesystem on NVMe devices

* Wed Sep 27 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Fix Travis config file This commit forces Travis to make use of Ubuntu Precise as the build env, since by default it has been upgraded to Trusty and some tests were failing due to this change.
* Tue Sep 26 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Fix vmdk disk convertion when using LVM This patch fixes bsc#1059715. Calling \'pvs --noheadings -o vg_name \' is not sufficient to get the volume name and to determine if LVM is being used, as it could happen that udev events are not yet processed, thus the is not yet properly mapped. With this patch blkid is being used to determine if the type of the requested partition is LVM and if so it proceeds to a polling strategy to call pvs tool until it succeeds. Timeout is set to 30 seconds.
* Tue Aug 29 2017 robert.paschedagAATTweb.de- Return \'string\' instead of an object Commit e75ae3af3588a90db0b6d544fa2f8a7eb866e5e9 changed the returned value of setupBTRFSSubVolumes to an object resulting in an error to create the image on btrfs.

* Tue Jul 18 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed grub bootloader setup for ec2 firmware In ec2 Xen is used but not detected as such by kiwi unless a domain configuration is provided in the image description. As this is a regression to the former behavior this patch makes sure the bootloader setup is appropriate depending on the firmware set to ec2|ec2hvm (bsc#1049178)
* Mon Jul 17 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Do not include any suffix to the displayname value bsc#1029904 If displayname attribute in the description file is used we should not include any kind of suffix to that value. With this patch the grub2 menu entry does not include the image type suffix if the displayname option is used. Fixes bsc#1029904

* Thu May 18 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Get the first two characters of the gdisk partition code output According to the gdisk documentationi, gdisk maps the partitions IDs to the MBR codes, but they are multiplied by 0x0100 in hexa. Meaning 0x8300 code is equivalent to 0x83 in MBR. This commit only considers the first two characters of the sgdisk partition code output. With this change the partition types are comparable, regardless of using MBR or GPT.
* Thu May 18 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Fixes OEM deployments on a free partition, bnc#1039469 This commit updates the boot code for oem images. In case oem-partition-install flag was set, the boot code was not capable to find an appropriate partition due to not attaching properly the raw image as a loopback device. KIWI was calling \'losetup\' command with wrong arguments. Fixes bnc#1039469
* Mon May 08 2017 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.31 released
* Thu May 04 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed detection of Xen PV guest The method isXen was used to check if the paravirtual kernel kernel-xen is used and if so it influences the setup of the bootloader. In newer versions there is no kernel-xen anymore and its capabilities were moved into the pvops kernel provided with the standard kernel-default package. Thus one kernel can now serve for pv, hvm and dom0 images. Because of that there is no other way than specifying the target Xen use case as part of the image description. The information can be provided in the doman setup of the machine configuratin with:- domain=\"dom0\"- domain=\"domU\"- domain=\"domU-PV\" The new domU-PV value allows to specify that this image is going to be used as a xen para virtual guest. The standard domU value will setup the bootloader in a way that it is usable as \"real\" bootloader in an hvmloader Xen guest. Fixes (bsc#1036198)
* Fri Mar 24 2017 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.30 released
* Thu Mar 23 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixup boot setup in uefi mode Revert \"Delete obsolete shim code from kiwi\", because it was not obsolete for setting up an iso image to boot via the shim secure boot module.

* Thu Feb 16 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed waitForLinkUp and setIPLinkUp The setIPLinkUp method did not handle the return value of the waitForLinkUp call and always returned success even if waitForLinkUp ran into a timeout The waitForLinkUp method was improved in a way that it does not wait if the link detection discovered the interface is unplugged. The detection if a cable is connected or not only works if the ifplugstatus tool was found in the initrd

* Thu Jan 26 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Fixup setupMachineID Cleaning up existing machine id files by deleting them causes an interactive session to be started by systemd This is something we don\'t want. As the consequences of touching the machine id files seems to be too critical the method has been turned into a hook caller. This allows the user to make use of it on their own purpose and by default doesn\'t mess with the machine id files This Fixes #628
* Thu Jan 26 2017 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.25 released

* Tue Jan 24 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Change processing of setupMachineID Instead of creating new machine ids for systemd and dbus the method now cleans up all existing machine ids and leave it up to systemd to initialize and create new ids. This allows to make use of the native way how systemd retrieves and handles machine ids
* Thu Jan 19 2017 msAATTsuse.de- v7.04.23 released
* Thu Jan 19 2017 msAATTsuse.de- Initialize the systemd machine ID on first boot The systemd machine id is considered to be a unique information Thus it is required to initialize it on first boot of the image. If the image uses the kiwi boot code (initrd) this action is performed and and Fixes #624

* Tue Nov 08 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- Testing isoinfo binary correctly In method \'isols()\' isoinfo command line tool is used, however the binary was opened before testing if it existed. Apparently the open perl function was not returning an error if the file did not exist. So in the case that isoinfo was not located in /usr/bin/isoinfo the open command was not failing, hence never trying to open the fallback location /usr/lib/genisoimage/isoinfo. This commit fixes #614.
* Mon Nov 07 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com- ActivateImage links correction and read-only test This commit is related to bnc#1006834.

* Thu Oct 27 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Fixup assembling of mdraid array when udev discovers an mdraid array it partially starts the array. That is interfering with the mdadm --assemble call by kiwi which leads to a busy state and an array in inactive state. Therefore the method should wait until the raid array really exists no matter if the assembling is started by udev or kiwi\'s mdadm call. In addition if the array got assembled but is incomplete because devices are missing or the timout is fired, an additional call to start any array that has been partially assembled is required. pxeRaidAssemble will throw an exception if after this call no md device with a size > 0 will show up after a timeout. This Fixes bnc#1000742

* Mon Apr 18 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Add part_msdos module for self build EFI image On ARM we have a few hooks in kiwi that allow us to adapt the resulting image to target boards. On some systems, we need to install the firmware to hardware specified sector offsets on the image target (sd card). Unfortunately some systems demand firmware at sector 1 which is where the GPT would usually reside. So we need to use an MBR partition layout. We can convert the GPT into an MBR using gdisk in our ARM scripts, but at that point grub2 would have to be able to interpret the MBR as well. So we need the \"msdos_part\" module included (bnc#975898)

The requirement was added by the contents of the arm boot image descriptions. However those packages will not be part of the boot image descriptions in the near future and thus the buildservice needs them to be referenced explicitly in the spec file

* Sat Feb 20 2016 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- Remove grub2 from the armv6/v7 initrd Grub2 adds 35MB to the initrd for no reason on armv6/v7, as those images use u-boot scripts for booting.
* Sat Feb 20 2016 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- Remove flush before resize filesystem According to the manpage, -F is flushing the fileystem buffer caches. which is only really useful for doing resize2fs time trials. With current Tumbleweed installed on MMC, -F triggers a Inappropriate ioctl for device while trying to flush error, and then fails to resize.

* Wed Feb 17 2016 robert.paschedagAATTweb.de- Do not activate dmraid paritions This only activates the device itself, not the partitions, that may also exist. If partitions exist, the UDEV rules will create the corresponding \"_partX\" symlinks for each partition within \"/dev/mapper, which are totally sufficient.

* Wed Feb 03 2016 ludwig.nusselAATTsuse.de- output correct sha256 file whether or not the argument to $sha->addfile is absolute doesn\'t actually matter as $sha->hexdigest never outputs any file name. We have to add the file name ourselves. Reason for the confusion is code in OBS\'s build script that under certain conditions computes the sha256sum file itself. So this code here was never used where it actually matters. This reverts commit 97b92d0e0a58cdd237b109efbf843b6057172164.
* Wed Feb 03 2016 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.51 released

* Wed Jan 27 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Evaluate kiwi_btrfs_root_is_snapshot in boot code If set it\'s required to mount the subvolumes like it is done with lvm volumes. In addition this patch fixes the update of the fstab file which has to contain an entry for each subvolume excluding snapshots and the toplevel This is related to (bnc#946648)
* Wed Jan 27 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Added get/set(er) for btrfs_root_is_snapshot attr This is related to (bnc#946648)

* Thu Jan 14 2016 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.49 released
* Tue Jan 12 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t use filesystem specific mount option When mounting the read write filesystem, prevent using filesystem specific options like barrier
* Tue Jan 12 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Use HYBRID_EXT4_OPTS in fat container filesystem
* Tue Jan 12 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Check read write filesystem prior to mounting If a filesystem type could be identified on the read write partition check it before mounting to eliminate a potential dirty state
* Tue Jan 12 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Cascade exfat mount try normal mount first, if this does not work try fuse mount Normally this is done automatically by the mount program but if not we will give the direct fuse mount a chance
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Make createFileSystem more robust When passing in a loop file instead of a device name, the method should be smart enough to handle the name without shell evaluation
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Compile rnc -> rng
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for exfat as hybrid filesystem In addition to fat also exfat is now supported as persistent write filesystem. Because of the limitations of a fat filesystem fat and exfat are only used as a container filesystem providing an ext4 linux filesystem as a cowfile. The algorithm to create the size of the cow file has also been changed to use half of the size of the write partition or on fat a max size of 4G. The size of the cowfile is also prepared to become overwritten. However the XML definition and implementation to do this is still missing
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Reread partition table after hybrid setup The hybrid write partition is created via fdisk. Some version of fdisk does not send the ioctl to let the kernel reread the table or fdisk itself holds it busy. Thus we actively initiate a reread via blockdev
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Optimize ext4 hybrid write filesystem options Optimized for 512kB erase block size
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Use mount options to increase overlay performace For overlay filesystems not writing into a tmpfs performance is more important than safety. We use this combination of options for now, if you encounter stability problems please let us know
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Use -f force option for extX filesystem checker
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Refactor and cleanup setupReadWrite Fix misleading error message and refactor the code to be less complex and more clear in the processing of tasks
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Allow custom cowfile name for persistent data Instead of a fixed name \'cowfile\' we allow a custom name which is predefined in HYBRID_PERSISTENT_FILENAME and prepared to become overwritten by an XML defintion whose implementation will follow later. Reason for the change is that a cowfile is visible as plain data file to the operating system if e.g used on a live stick. It should be more clear to the user what this file is good for
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Protect mkfs.exfat from being deleted Added to the strip tools section in order to keep it in the initrd
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for exfat creation and probing In preparation to use exfat instead of vfat in a loop container for persistent data it\'s required to provide support for mkfs.exfat
* Mon Jan 11 2016 msAATTsuse.de- Make loop_setup and loop_delete more robust The methods did not cope well with filenames containing bash characters with special meaning e.g spaces. For use with a iso hybrid cowfile whose name is visible in the OS the methods should be able to work with any given filename
* Sat Dec 26 2015 cyberorgAATTopensuse.org- fix message of missing command
* Wed Dec 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.48 released
* Wed Dec 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed import of kernel parameters including spaces Kernel parameters like PRODUCT_TYPE=“PRODUCT BANANA” breaks the code in includeKernelParameters. This patch allows spaces for values in a way that it replaces the embedded whitespace with \\030 before parsing and then reverting after parsing. Thanks to Jay Nitikman for providing the patch

* Wed Dec 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.47 released
* Wed Dec 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed LUKS setup for dracut The system image has to provide /etc/crypttab to allow dracut to create a working initrd for reboot. In addition the name of the luks map must be \'luks\' to make dracut happy.

* Mon Dec 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed JeOS templates configured for efi boot in case of efi the efi modules should be installed to the system. Even though it\'s not a problem for kiwi because it takes the modules from the self build initrd it could become a problem when grub2 is used for reconfiguration on the system later. It is also questionable whether it is a good idea from kiwi to install the efi modules as part of the initrd just for the purpose to take them from there at build time when they are not really needed in the initrd at boot time. The new (next generation) kiwi version will lookup modules from the system if possible and will not keep them inside of the initrd
* Mon Dec 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed suse-SLE12-community-JeOS description kernel-debug is not installed, no need to have it in the delete section

* Tue Dec 15 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed validation of updates/weak-updates modules suseStripKernel took the update and weak-update modules only into account if they are mentioned in the drivers list. But these modules are considered p1 and should always be included and also checked against its dependencies
* Tue Dec 15 2015 martin.koeglerAATTchello.at- Allow xfs as hybrid RW file system
* Thu Dec 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.44 released

* Wed Dec 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Delete use of DOMURD_MODULES The predefined values were wrong and the information is not used anymore since mkinitrd / dracut takes the list of loaded modules into account
* Wed Dec 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Run dracut as background process for vmx images The dracut process takes quite some time and blocks the boot process. In cloud frameworks instance boot time matters and with this patch the dracut process runs in parallel with the rest of the boot process.

* Wed Dec 02 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added information about mysystems macro to spec The creation of the -requires packages is based on a macro written by Adrian called %mysystems. It expands to the kiwi boot image description name according to the buildservice build distribution. It\'s important to see the value it has expanded to in the buildlog

* Wed Dec 02 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of /var/run vs. /run It should not be kiwi\'s task to handle that but it seems we will not be able to fix this in a clean way on the package level. Thus I added a bad hack to check for the desired distro from the value of the boot attribute and create either /run with a symlink /var/run or /var/run
* Wed Dec 02 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file requirements for older systems (SLE11), the pidof program as used by kiwi is provided with the sysvinit package not with sysvinit-tools
* Mon Nov 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t recursively remove tmpdir structure If the master /tmp directory is empty there is the potential risk that /tmp gets removed too, which would cause many bad after effects bnc#957008
* Mon Nov 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Use tmpfs not ramdisk for overlayfs union images overlayfs based iso images (flags=\"overlay\") used a ramdisk of a fixed ramsize as temporary write space if used on read-only media. This limits the write space to the configured ramdisk size and is now changed to a tmpfs location. Fixes #513
* Sat Nov 28 2015 seife+devAATTb1-sytems.com- make .checksum.md5 contents reproducible In order to have reproducible builds in OBS with unchanged sources, sort the file list before feeding it to \"md5sum\". Without, rebuilds would differ in that file as the file list order was random. Also, get rid of \"find | grep -v ... | grep -v ...\" for ignoring filenames and just use find\'s options to achieve that. Saves two fork() and a few CPU cycles :-)
* Fri Nov 27 2015 seife+devAATTb1-sytems.com- KIWIBoot: add grub2-mkimage prefix option grub2-mkimage on CentOS/RHEL7
*needs
* the \"-p \" option or it will abort with an error. On openSUSE\'s grub2-mkimage, prefix defaults to \"/boot/grub2\". Add \"-p /boot/grub2\" to all grub2-mkimage calls, so that they can work with CentOS, too. This

* Tue Nov 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Retrieve vm tools version from vmtoolsd
* Mon Nov 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Deleted __checkMountDependencies runtime check I\'m afraid but this check causes more false positives than the correct detection of an inconsistency in the mount table. Checking if the string \'kiwi\' appears in the process list is not enough, especially in contained environment where the host kernel shares mount information with a VM or container guest this check is always wrong. We need a better solution here. Fixes Issue#501
* Mon Nov 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added Leap 42.1 support for kiwi --describe Allow to analyse Leap Systems, fixes Issue #516
* Tue Nov 10 2015 seife+devAATTb1-sytems.com- Bundle all built OEM images it is valid to build multiple OEM targets, e.g. with and KIWI correctly builds an install.iso and an install.tar.xz in this case. However, when using OBS only the install.iso is exported. This is, because \"kiwi --bundle-build\" will only export one image and return. Change this to export all: .iso, .raw and .tar.xz

Typically, the tools write the metadata during their first run, but in our case the first run of the tools is the first boot of the appliance, so the host application is not aware of tools until after a VM has been rebooted, missing a critical opportunity to configure an instance before or during the first boot. In order to allow VMWare applications (include vCloud) to be aware that vm-tools are installed, we need to add the appropriate metadata to the image during its creation

* Fri Sep 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.03.22 released
* Fri Sep 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent prefix setup in grub.cfg for Xen This is because Xen PV guests boot via a first stage loader pygrub/pvgrub and interpret the grub config file differently. One inconsistency is that pvgrub searches for the grub modules at a different place. Setting up the prefix will point pvgrub to the wrong place and the system fail to boot.
* Thu Sep 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent command variables for Xen domU grub2 setup Xen PV images which boot via pvgrub have the problem that pvgrub is not able to correctly read in the kiwi written grub.cfg file. This is because kiwi uses a variable which contains the loader command e.g $linux instead of the loader command directly. grub2 supports this but pvgrub is not able to interpret this information. Therefore this patch prevents the use of the variable if the target image is Xen, domU and the firmware type is set to bios

* Tue Jul 28 2015 fsAATTsuse.de- Kiwi Doc Revision Pt. 7: VMX Chapter
* Tue Jul 28 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Deleted yum grouplist check Prior to installing yum groups, kiwi performed a grouplist to check if the group exists. That\'s because yum groupinstall does only print a warning message if a non existing group should be installed. The problem here is that the group names displayed by yum grouplist are the description names like \"Console internet tools\" but the group id name in this case \"console-internet\" is not displayed. This makes it impossible for kiwi to use the yum group id names which we should prefer over the description texts, because the texts could contain special characters which makes it hard to validate the content in a stable way. In addition yum groupinstall works more reliable if the group id names are used

However the value was not in the xml instance because KIWIBoot creates their own instance of KIWIXML. This is fixed now by passing along the origin XML instance when available
* Mon Jul 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed in place recovery The information about the size of the recovery partition was missing inside of the initrd. The information is now available as variable in the profile environment

* Fri Jul 24 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added custom hybridpersistent_filesystem attribute By default kiwi creates a btrfs partition as write space for hybrid live systems. With the new attribute one can specify also the \'fat\' filesystem as write space. This would allow to create hybrid live images which are compatible with the Windows OS in a similar way like kiwi\'s livestick tool does it. This Fixes #475

Therefore we test if the repo URL uses obs|iso and provide a message to the user. If we want to support this in the future for obs URI types the imageinclude feature has to auto map the obs URI into the correct http URI which will only work for repositories in the public part of the open buildservice This Fixes #472

* Mon Jun 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent createHybridPersistent waiting for devs Check if the write partition creation returns success before waiting for the expected device to become created. This prevents a long wait period on a device which never will come up if the partition could not be created. This Fixes #466
* Mon Jun 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed legacy grub install for install stick images Installing legacy grub can happen using the image grub or the build host grub. However for install stick disks there is no grub in the install image even if it is present in the system image the stick installs. Therefore the host installed grub should be used as a fallback. This Fixes #471

* Fri Jun 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed installation of Archive into root system Archives marked as bootinclude were excluded from being installed into the image too. This is an unexpected behaviour change and is fixed now
* Tue Jun 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.55 released
* Tue Jun 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Allow to overwrite root= via kernelcmdline If one of the ec2 firmware types is used the root= variable is explicitly set to a static value. There was no way for the user to set an alternative device via the kernelcmdline attribute in the image description
* Tue Jun 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed zipl installBootLoader blocksize usage There is now the target_blocksize attribute which is used. If not specified the default blocksize of 512 bytes applies (bnc#931634)
* Tue Jun 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed zipl installBootLoader blocksize retrieval In order to find the target blocksize for the zipl configuration kiwi asked for the pyhiscal blocksize. However the logical block size should be used when zipl accesses the device (bnc#931634)
* Tue Jun 09 2015 adrianAATTsuse.de- fix version detection for debug packages
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.54 released
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkVolumeSetup runtime check Checks for improper combination of boot volumes in combination with an extra boot partition
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added runtime check for internal field separator Using the internal path field separator in volume names (_) requires to specify the path in an additional mountpoint attribute
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed volume name adaptions for btrfs and zfs There is no need to replace any character in the name for the volume of a filesystem which includes a volume manager. Fixes (bnc#933909)
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed evaluation of bootincluded archives Archives set in the bootstrap section and marked as bootinclude were not really used and therefore its contents were missing in the kiwi initrd
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Revert \"Implement setup of loop blocksize\" The user space interface will change because in order to set the pyhsical blocksize the value must be present on loop creation. This required options to the losetup call and can\'t be done afterwards. Therefore the implementation in kiwi will be reverted until the user space interface for losetup is final This reverts commit d2dfead392a7dd2064afbd59df4c4d67bcacbc98.
* Mon Jun 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Implement setup of loop blocksize The new loop driver capability allows to set a custom blocksize This patch makes use of it with the value from the optional target_blocksize attribute (bnc#931634)
* Fri Jun 05 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.53 released
* Fri Jun 05 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for btrfs grub2 boot path For iso media the adaption of the boot path to /AATT/... is wrong because in this case we read from iso9660 and not from btrfs. This is related to (bnc#933664)
* Fri Jun 05 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed grub2 setup on btrfs without boot partition If the image is built with btrfs and no extra boot partition is requested the grub2 btrfs module is used to read the boot data from the filesystem. However in kiwi we setup a btrfs filesystem in a way that all subvolumes are nested below a master \'AATT\' volume. Within the scope of grub2 it\'s required to adapt any path in the filesystem to match this because it\'s not possible to specify a subvolume set-default here. Because of this /boot/grub2/grub.cfg becomes /AATT/boot/grub2/grub.cfg within grub2. This fixes (bnc#933664)
* Wed Jun 03 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.52 released
* Thu May 28 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed result tracking from ovftool The temporary directory created for this has the same name as the ovf file created inside of it. On move of the data to the result dir this causes trouble which is fixed by this commit
* Thu May 28 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added target_blocksize attribute in type section In preparation to support custom blocksize values for loops the attribute target_blocksize was implemented like the folowing example shows: This will set a 4k blocksize used for all loops setup during image build and on first boot of the image. The actual code to apply the blocksize to the loop is not yet implemented because we are still waiting for the loop driver to support it. This is related to (bnc#931634)
* Wed May 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added pointer to XML description for loop_setup In preparation to support custom blocksize values for loops access to the XML description is needed to read the specified target_blocksize value once support for this value will be added
* Wed May 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed ova guestOS value for 13.2 JeOS
* Wed May 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup use of losetup In preparation to support custom blocksize values for loops global methods to loop setup/delete has been added. This is related to (bnc#931634)
* Wed May 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added runtime check for overlay systems The __checkBootPartitionOverlaySystem runtime check makes sure the use of a boot partition is not switched off. If the root system is a read-only location the boot space must be writable
* Fri May 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.51 released
* Thu May 21 2015 matwey.kornilovAATTgmail.com- Provide kiwi-image:aci in kiwi.spec
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update all JeOS templates, no rpm signature check Due to upcomming changes in zypper the --non-interactive option will no longer do what the name says and will prevent using packages with invalid or not checkable rpm signatures unless the option to skip the check is set. Therefore all JeOS templates now comes with false
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild documentation
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update documentation due to OEM_ variable change
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup use of OEM variables Deleted baseSetupOEMPartition and therefore the translation of variables from the profile into OEM_ variables by writing the environment file config.oempartition. Instead the boot now directly uses the variables from the profile which are all prefixed by kiwi_oem
*
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Deleted fixed parmfile name PARM-S11 on s390 Instead a new OEM element called: has been added. Using this element allows to specify the parmfile name without the userid. The userid is queried on demand. If no parmfile name is specified the default name PARM-S11 applies for backward compatibility. This fix relates to (bnc#931436)
* Thu May 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed loading of vmcp on s390 In SLE12 vmcp is compiled into the kernel, thus loading it as a module will cause an exception which is misleading This fixes (bnc#931436)
* Wed May 20 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Provide suseService method for compatibility Old image descriptions using this method will fail to build with newer kiwi versions if the function does not exist
* Wed May 20 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setup of imageBootDevice on repart make use of the kiwi_BootPart information. This was overlooked in OEMRepartStandard, all other repartition methods makes use of it
* Mon May 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Use KIWI_IGNORE_OLD_MOUNTS for make valid target
* Mon May 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.50 released
* Mon May 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure reco_uuid is not used uninitialized
* Mon May 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setup of boot timeout in elilo compat mode
* Sun May 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Auto validation of templates
* Sun May 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.49 released
* Sun May 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of prefix in updateBootDeviceFstab prefix should indicate the prefixed root mount path and not the temporary config files path. Due to that misuse the check for boot_bind was wrong and no boot mount was written to fstab
* Fri May 15 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of prefix in updateRootDeviceFstab prefix should indicate the prefixed root mount path and not the temporary config files path. Due to that misuse the wrong information was passed to the btrfs tool to ask for the list of subvolumes
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.48 released
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update 13.2 JeOS, auto adaption from validation
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed btrfs based factory restore On factory restore the btrfs subvolumes were recreated but no default subvolume was defined. Because of this the restore of the data was not correctly shared across the subvolumes
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkVMConfigExist runtime check The ova and ovf formats requires a machine section to be specified in the XML description. This check makes sure it exists
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of btrfs filesystem Delete potentially existing btrfs signature prior to creating a new filesystem. If used with a UUID mkfs.btrfs refuses to create the filesystem even with the force option enabled if there is the same uuid already present in the metadata
* Wed May 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup use of /mnt string in common boot code All function using /mnt hold on a prefix variable containing the value
* Tue May 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t log errors from udevSystemStop in case udevadm has no control command don\'t log this error because the process will be stopped in a second attempt by kill
* Tue May 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.47 released
* Tue May 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Google doesn\'t like pretty print of json metadata
* Tue May 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.46 released
* Tue May 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed console initialization on exception If multiple consoles are used like console=tty0 console=ttyS0 the output is multiplexed among all consoles if plymouth or blogd is in use. However if a system shell exception occurs the exception shell was not correctly initialized as controlling terminal. In order to fix this the sulogin program is used and the shell .bashrc will reset the spawned console first. This fixes (bnc#928090)
* Mon May 11 2015 matwey.kornilovAATTgmail.com- Introduce initial support for App Container Image (aci) Here is initial implementation of App Container Image (aci) format. This commit is able to build .aci images conforming to SPEC. [1] https://github.com/appc/spec/blob/master/SPEC.md#app-container-image
* Mon May 11 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of ovftool v3.5.x If format=\"ova\" is specified kiwi uses VMware\'s ovftool if installed on the host to generated the ova tarball. In addition kiwi extracts the vmdk and ovf metadata from the ovftool generated data and overwrites it with the files created by kiwi. This allows us to create vmdk versions like VSphere needs it
* Fri May 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.45 released
* Fri May 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Allow archives to be bootstrap or image archives Archives listed in the bootstrap section should be installed as part of the bootstrap phase. before this patch all archives from all packages sections were collected and installed in one shot after all packages were installed.
* Fri May 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of bootincluded_archives.filelist This should only be done for archives marked as bootinclude
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.44 released
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for kiwi repository runtime script The temporary creation of KIWIAnalyse.tgz should be done with the login user identity
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.43 released
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed kiwi repository runtime script It unpacked metadata/KIWIAnalyse.tgz even if the data already exists
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for grub_cpu validation Incorrect shell syntax
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added runtime check for target directories Setting the target directory as part of /var/cache/kiwi leads to busy mount processes because this shared cache location is used by kiwi as part of the building process
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed cache selector Calling the cache selector while in init-cache mode doesn\'t make sense
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Changed default image cache location The previous location was set to /var/cache/kiwi/image but this leads to busy mounts when preparing a cache image below this path because /var/cache/kiwi is bind mounted during preparation of a cache. Thus the default cache location is set to /var/cache/kiwi-images
* Thu May 07 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed error message on --init-cache If the given cache dir does not exist display a proper error message
* Tue May 05 2015 bgeukenAATTsuse.de- Fix lvm volume regex to allow volume names that are just have a forbidden name as prefix
* Mon May 04 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure btrfs subvolumes are listed in fstab In order to leave a rollback prepared system after first boot it\'s important to configure SUSE_BTRFS_SNAPSHOT_BOOTING as well as add all subvolumes as single mountpoints to the fstab file
* Mon May 04 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added support to filter install devices There is now a element which allows to receive a free form text evaluated as input for the bash regexp operator. Every device matching the rule is filtered out and not part of the selection list for the install targets in an oem installation process. This addresses (bnc #924436)
* Mon May 04 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of fdasd on SLE12 when using fdasd on an empty disk two questions raises which needs to be answered/confirmed before kiwi can proceed to create partitions (bnc #928550)
* Fri May 01 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.42 released
* Thu Apr 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update RHEL7 JeOS template Added lan0 udev rule, don\'t use lvm to simplify setup
* Thu Apr 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of custom kernel options for recovery custom kernel paratmers are stored in $kiwi_cmdline inside of the boot code. The information was not used for the recovery grub config. Therefore a difference in kernel boot options for standard boot and for recovery boot could happen which should not be the case
* Thu Apr 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed boot_efilabel for elilo compat mode The efi boot label should match the title set in the bootloader menu. This is should be set to kiwi_oemtitle
* Wed Apr 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.41 released
* Wed Apr 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Run lvcreate with --noudevsync This allows to build LVM images in container systems which doesn\'t have udev running
* Wed Apr 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update SLE12 JeOS description The new pattern system requires libsolv >= 0.6.5 to be installed on the building host. Thus solve patterns as package to stay compatible with older build host systems
* Wed Apr 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added dice buildsystem config to x86 JeOS images
* Wed Apr 29 2015 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- The linuxefi and initrdefi commands only exists on x86 and x86_64. Write the grub config setting for linuxefi and initrdefi only on these platforms, for all others the appropriate command is linux and initrd.
* Fri Apr 24 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Keep terminal reset utility inside boot images
* Fri Apr 24 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed useless use of greediness modifier \'+\' in regex
* Thu Apr 23 2015 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Builder infrastructure + Integrate ext
* file system image builds into the \"builder\" infrastructure to simplify and improve the structure of image builds
* Thu Apr 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Style changes for mount dependency checker
* Use here documents to construct messages
* Use pstree to show sub tree of processes
* Use perl builtin methods to read from proc
* Wed Apr 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed product name in SLE12 s390 JeOS
* Wed Apr 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Better description for pattern use in 13.2 JeOS
* Wed Apr 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fetch errno($!) directly after call Reading of $! later will not provide the information
* Wed Apr 22 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkMountDependencies runtime check The check looks for processes which holds onto mounts created by a previos kiwi run. In such a condition kiwi is not able to release its own mount table and shows information about the processes which keeps these mount points busy. We still don\'t understand why there could be non kiwi related processes holding onto mounts kiwi has created during its run but kiwi should provide a way to tell this information to the user and stop if the environment is still tainted by such processes (bnc #895204)
* Tue Apr 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkDeprecatedFilesystem runtime check The use of clicfs is deprecated, a hint to use overlayfs if possible is shown as a warning message to the user
* Tue Apr 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Delete kernel/adaptec-firmware from boot images For s390 there are no such packages in the SLE12 code base
* Tue Apr 21 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.40 released
* Tue Apr 21 2015 adrianAATTsuse.de- remove call to addAppdata again merge error
* Mon Apr 20 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.39 released
* Mon Apr 20 2015 adrianAATTsuse.de- prefer packages by priority of repositories, not by architectures.
* Mon Apr 20 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Ensure recovery entry is appended for elilo compat elilo does not support adding custom entries to the written grub configuration. Thus we have to make sure the recovery entry doesn\'t get lost after a recovery run. Therefore the menu entry is added as part of the installBootloader function because this function is called after a recovery run while the installBootloaderRecovery functions are only called once at initialization time of the recovery partition
* Mon Apr 20 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed missing boot/efi mount path after recovery In recovery/repair mode the boot/efi path is not umounted correctly when init/systemd is started. Both paths /boot and /boot/efi are part of the fstab and if boot/efi is already mounted when fstab is processed the mount of /boot will cover and therefore hide the contents of boot/efi
* Fri Apr 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.38 released
* Thu Apr 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Revert \"Added gptfdisk to SLE11 oemboot descriptions\" This reverts commit 8a49b0d75f583cc4f18fdb57fb36722777e71725.
* Thu Apr 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Revert \"Update SLE11 JeOS description\" This reverts commit 5cec0de206a4b2bcf15216ec8696cbedaa9a5c77.
* Wed Apr 15 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added elilo compat mode to recovery boot setup In normal grub2 mode the recovery entry is just written as a custom menu entry and processed by grub2-mkconfig. However if the elilo compat mode is in use on SLES11 with efi the recovery menu entry must be written to the elilo generated grub.cfg
* Wed Apr 15 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Disable uuid support in createFilesystem for btrfs This will be changed once SLES11 SP4 is out to have a compatible version out until then
* Mon Apr 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Recovery fixes and improvements
* Added root.uuid / boot.uuid information to the recovery The UUID is used on restore to create the filesystem with the same UUID as before. This also allows to use the same efi binary as before and avoids the hack of copy over a standard efi binary
* Allow createFilesystem to receive an optional UUID parameter In order to set the UUID for xfs the xfs_admin tool has been set to be a persistent part of the boot image(initrd)
* Better messages for bootloader setup. Distinguish between boot loader setup for recovery and root system
* Fixed description setup in elilo.conf for SLE11 efi compat mode. If kiwi_oemtitle is not set use kiwi_displayname to avoid an empty title in the boot menu
* Mon Apr 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added gptfdisk to SLE11 oemboot descriptions
* Mon Apr 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update SLE11 JeOS description Added SP4 repos, use repo source from download.suse.de
* Fri Apr 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.37 released
* Fri Apr 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild documentation
* Fri Apr 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update documentation Added information about recovery hooks
* Fri Apr 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added recovery hooks
* preRecovery / postRecovery called before or after the recovery is processed
* preRecoverySetup / postRecoverySetup called before or after the setup of the recovery files and tarballs is processed
* Fri Apr 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.36 released
* Thu Apr 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed OEMFindPartitions
* partition size of install target must be greater than the size of the image partition, equal the size is not enough
* change error message to exactly point to the partinfo file which contains the information how the requested target partitions must look like
* change the partinfo file to include the gpt partition code as gdisk knows it in case of a GPT
* Thu Apr 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed partedGetPartitionID In case of a GPT parted has no information about a partition id Therefore we mapped the id to the known msdos values according to the name kiwi defines for the partition. Any GPT specific partition got the same id \'ee\' which results in not being able to distinguish them. However for the partition based install in EFI mode it\'s required to identify any potential target install partition by an id. Therefore partedGetPartitionID will return the sgdisk partition code and will only map to the old legacy values if sgdisk is not available
* Thu Apr 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update spec file make the gptfdisk package a requirement for distros which provides it
* Thu Apr 09 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setup of GPT partition table kiwi uses parted to create partition tables. In case of GPT a linux default partition table has a guid set which points to a Microsoft base partition. This is wrong and I did not find a way to correct this with parted. Therefore the sgdisk utility will be used to correct the partition code so that we can at least see the right values when using sgdisk
* Wed Apr 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Changed validation in OEM partition install mode In partition based install kiwi checks if the current partitions can be used for installation. Part of the validation was to check if a filesystem signature could be found. If yes the partition was not offered for installation. However this test is too strict because in order to remove the filesystem signature the filesystem must be actively destroyed. It\'s better to check for the filesystem UUID instead. In order to allow the installer to use the partition one can clear the uuid with the appropriate filesystem utility e.g e2fstune -U clear for extX based filesystems and that will not destroy the filesystem integrity. This means an active system can be prepared for install by clearing the uuid instead of self destructing it
* Wed Apr 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.35 released
* Wed Apr 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Delete rt kernel profile for SLE11 kernel-rt is not always available to customers and the realtime kernel can be selected via the custom kernel profile if needed
* Wed Apr 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Implement support for importing gce license If gcelicense is specified the information is included into the gce format tarball
* Wed Apr 08 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added gcelicense attribute in section The gcelicense attribute receives a free form text information which is used to create a manifest file in the gce image format. The gce image format is Google\'s expected Compute Engine image format for uploading and registering an OS image in GCE
* Tue Mar 24 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Setup kernel symlinks in sle11 elilo compat mode
* Tue Mar 24 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Use filesystem UUID to identify the recovery
* Mon Mar 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.34 released
* Mon Mar 23 2015 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Complete KIWI\'s appdata handlling removal Commit f4b7df2 removed the general handling, but missed a reference in KIWICollect.pm
* Thu Mar 19 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.33 released
* Wed Mar 18 2015 dvaleevAATTsuse.com- Changes to instsource requirements In order to make syslinux requirement conditional we need to build kiwi-instsource arch specific package. This commit is needed because we can\'t Require kiwi-isoboot in Factory anymore since we started to build PowerPC in Rings Signed-off-by: Dinar Valeev
* Wed Mar 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.32 released
* Wed Mar 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed service setup for lxc containers No chroot required to for relinking services
* Wed Mar 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed contents of lxc configuration Use autodev and disable kmsg. In addition rework the way systemd services gets disabled and update the list of systemd services not allowed to run in a container. This fixes (bnc #920692)
* Wed Mar 18 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for variable import errors
* Tue Mar 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Ignore variable import syntax errors In case of malformed shell syntax a message on eval of the expression is printed to the log. Having them twice is not needed
* Tue Mar 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Deleted createOriginSnapshot In combination with btrfs this function created an origin snapshot prior to the first boot. This conflicts with the SUSE built in snapshot setup used by snapper.
* Tue Mar 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of volume variables in profile env Instead of evaluating the variable to get their content we directly parse the value. This allows to have key values including special characters normally not allowed in shell variable names like the dot(\'.\'). volumes names like \'.snapshot\' will become possible
* Tue Mar 17 2015 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Remove KIWI\'s appdata handling The format is just too complex to be handled in this symlistic way. Appdata.xml (a subset of Appstream) evolved and changed for example from \"applications\" to \"components\"; now, some packages export one type, other packages export the other type. Merging them without normalising is resulting in a structure like: [...] [...] whereas \'components\' is no valid child of applications per spec (neither is application a valid child of components). Hence: if KIWI ought to do that proper, the full format must be understood, analysed, normalised and merged. for openSUSE, KIWI now uses appstream-builder, which is created in close relationship with the AppStream metadata in mind. Having this code still in KIWI results in the builder producing valid appdata.xml.gz PLUS an uncompressed appdata.xml (~18MB) to be part of the repository metadata (thus slowing repo refresh down a lot).
* Tue Mar 17 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed restoreBtrfsSubVolumes if a subvolume for e.g /var/crash should be restored, kiwi failed because the /var path did not exist. As a workaround people could add /var as a volume but if only /var/crash should be a volume and not /var there was no way to do it. This commit fixed it in a way that kiwi checks if the path to the volume exists and if not it is created prior to the restore of the subvolume
* Mon Mar 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.31 released
* Mon Mar 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added runtime check for docker and lxc definitions Those require a container name to be specified
* Mon Mar 16 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed Result packer for docker and lxc images The kiwi.buildinfo basename was wrong and did not include the extension name. In addition the result packer was not aware that lxc/docker images are tarballs
* Fri Mar 13 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.30 released
* Thu Mar 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed accident change in 13.2 JeOS
* Thu Mar 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup calling basename Make sure basename is not called with a missing operand
* Thu Mar 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Mount EFI partition only if not already mounted
* Wed Mar 11 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update elilo compat mode Support copy of vendor specific EFI boot config In addition use the oem boot title as title for the elilo configuration too
* Tue Mar 10 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed boot deleting packages A package marked with the bootdelete=\"true\" flag was not removed from the boot image if it was placed in the section of the system image.
* Fri Mar 06 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.29 released
* Thu Mar 05 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Move loader install tool check to the right place Only if a bootloader must be installed check if the tool to perform the call is present on the host
* Thu Mar 05 2015 schneemannAATTb1-systems.de- dhclient has no option for timeout The dhclient in openSUSE 13.2 has no parameter for timeout, but it is specified in the setupNetworkDHCLIENT function. The timeout is taken from the configuration file as mentioned in the manpage.
* Wed Mar 04 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed __checkSelectedBootLoaderIncluded check The runtime check for grub2 has the choice for several packages Especially on SLE11 only grub2-x86_64-efi exists.
* Wed Mar 04 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Increase the EFI/vboot fat partition Instead of 32MB use 200MB to allow holding a little more data like firmware and/or loaders
* Wed Mar 04 2015 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Fix consistency check for LXC builds + Prior to the emergence of systemd the lxc package provided a special init script, lxc-init. This was necessary as SysV-init was not container aware. systemd is container aware, thus including systemd as the init system is sufficient.
* Tue Mar 03 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.28 released
* Tue Mar 03 2015 msAATTsuse.de- XZ compress vhdfixed disks in result bundler
* Wed Feb 25 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Update description for suse-pxe-client The template is designed for a netboot only system. Therefore many parts are actively deleted, e.g the kernel which prevents this system from booting standalone. The description now points that out to indicate that for another use case the images.sh script might need some changes
* Wed Feb 25 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Add in code comment for s390 zipl setup A static offset address to load the initrd from is used but no explanation why was given
* Mon Feb 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.27 released
* Mon Feb 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed critic for KIWIMiniIsoPlugin.pm
* Mon Feb 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed critic for KIWIDescrPlugin.pm
* Mon Feb 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed potential link attack security issue kiwi statically creates a tmp executable in /dev/shm. Apart from the fact that it\'s the wrong place in the filesystem to do this kiwi should use a correctly created tmpfile. This Fixes #444
* Mon Feb 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed zero block analyser If all free blocks in a filesystem contain a zero the compression result of the later image is better compared to if there is any random junk in it. In order to have all free blocks set to a zero byte kiwi used the dd + rm method which had the disadvantage of destroying the sparseness of the image file. Because of that the method was applied only if the image was built from a real disk device which did not allow us to strip away a sparse image from anyways. However this is not very flexible because: 1. In most cases an image is built from a loop device mapped against a sparse file. Thus the method is not called most of the time 2. With filesystems using more complex internal structures like xfs btrfs, zfs and friends there is not much difference in the compression results, but the time to create a huge empty file which is removed later is signifcantly recognized Thus this change deletes the old way of zero out free blocks and uses a tool to do the job for us. For extX based filesystems the zerofree utility exists and is used if installed. For other filesystems I\'m not aware of a tool and thus we don\'t handle them at the moment. If there is tool available kiwi print a warning message

* Fri Feb 13 2015 jmassaguerplaAATTsuse.de- check user_name is defined when checking file tree It is possible to have files that should be owned by root which are owned by a non-existing user, meaning the uid has no corresponding username. When this happens, the check used to give the error \"Use of uninitialized value $user_name in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/kiwi/modules/KIWIRuntimeChecker.pm line 1558.\" Thus we need to check whether the user exists.
* Thu Feb 12 2015 jmassaguerplaAATTsuse.de- remove plymouth packages from s390x boot image We don\'t need graphical boot on s390x.
* Thu Feb 12 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.26 released

* Wed Feb 11 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Explicitly add kbd package to boot images
* Wed Feb 11 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure the default console font is setup While kiwi runs fbiterm the default console font is not properly restored when the session ends. In order to enter the system with a correctly initialized console font kiwi actively calls setfont with the default8x16 font. This is related to (bnc #879994)
* Wed Feb 11 2015 schwabAATTsuse.de- Remove obsolete 12.2 templates
* Tue Feb 10 2015 jmasonAATTsuse.com- Move the vhdfixed tag to 64K offset. The tag specification calls for moving the tag from a 16K offset to a 64K offset to avoid conflicting with the GPT.

* Sat Jan 31 2015 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- aarch64: Load full EFI emulation size-boot-load-size 1 is not a recommended option. First of all a loader size that is not divideable by 4 is rejected by most EFI firmwares. In addition we need to load all of the EFI code into memory. When the option is not set, genisoimage uses the full length by default, which is what we want.
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.24 released
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed callPartitioner Instead of making the decision for the correct partition tool by the name of the device use a method which knows better about the type of the storage device. This applies to s390 only were a dasd device could be a real dasd with 4k blocksize or an emulated dasd with 512byte blocksize. In the first case fdasd is used and in the other case parted must be used. The decision for the tool is now based on the result if isDASDDevice() which returns false for emulated dasd devices because we only distinguish a different handling if the blocksize of the device is _not_ 512byte
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed critic testing via perlcritic perlcritic on 13.2 reports a module to not end with a true value which is wrong and older versions of perlcritic do not complain about the same code. As I don\'t want to dig into what perlcritic does I decided to move the module in question to be not level 4 clean
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed handling of zipl options For some reason it was not possible to provide the information as commandline arguments. Thus we wrote it into the menu section. In addition the verbose zipl installation information is now part of the kiwi build log file
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed import of emulated dasd device dasd_configure is required to be called but kiwi skipped that step for emulated dasd devices and thus they did not exist on boot
* Fri Jan 30 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for emulated DASD devices on s390 an emulated dasd is a dasd device in FBA mode using 512byte blocksize. kiwi did not properly install zipl to allow to boot from such devices

* Thu Jan 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed exception handling if device type is unknown
* Thu Jan 29 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for s390 emulated DASD devices An emulated DASD device is a disk with 512byte blocksize like it is the case for real zFCP (scsi) devices. Therefore kiwi handles an emulated DASD like a zFCP device but does not configure host and disk adapter for it
* Wed Jan 28 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed SLES12 s390 JeOS image template deleted obsolete packages, update pattern name

* Tue Jan 27 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of split images The filename for the splitfile which is the read-write portion of the image was build taking the displayname into account. Only if the displayname was not set the filename was correct because in that case the displayname and the diskname are the same. If a custom displayname is set the splitfile name was wrong and the read-write data was not included to the image In addition this patch uses the kiwi.buildinfo file to check for the image type instead of taking weird assumptions based on file names
* Mon Jan 26 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure to handle all udev daemon processes If the call to udevadm control for some reason did not stop all udev daemon processes kiwi checks the pids it found and kills them manually. However kiwi just looked up one process even though there might be more
* Mon Jan 26 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Use udevadm control to exit udev daemon Killing the udevd is done in two steps. First we issue an udevadm call to exit udevd the documented way. According to the man page the call waits until udevd is stopped. After the call we check against the process ID of udevd we know about if they really have been stopped. If not we kill them
* Fri Jan 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.22 released
* Fri Jan 23 2015 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t use /mnt as mount point in a kiwi process It could cause conflicts if the building system has /mnt mounted for some reasons. Especially if the image target directory is set to /mnt kiwi failed because it over mounted its own results

This can now be done like the following example shows:
* Thu Dec 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Eliminate weird kiwi revision from unit tests The unit test environment sets a static kiwi revision number 4711 which is odd because it can easily use the correct git revision from the git metadata
* Thu Dec 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed print() on closed filehandle
* Tue Dec 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.12 released
* Mon Dec 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Eliminate grub2-efi path At the beginning of grub2 the home in boot was set to grub2-efi as well as some tools take this information in their name. It\'s time to cleanup this. In addition kiwi now creates a grub.cfg which is able to check for grub_platform in order to distinguish between efi and non efi configuration differences if there are any
* Mon Dec 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added EFI support for none aarch64 arm systems There are armv7 based boards which comes with an EFI firmware. In order to boot them we have to make sure to use grub2 bootarm.efi and call the right grub2 bootloader configuration methods (bnc #908469)
* Sun Dec 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for overlayfs changes in kernel 3.18 overlayfs complains: upperdir and workdir must be in separate subtrees. Thus we create workdir and upperdir in different subdirs below read-write
* Fri Dec 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for overlayfs changes in kernel 3.18 overlayfs complains: workdir and upperdir must reside under the same mount. Thus we create work-stage below read-write
* Fri Dec 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setupBootLoaderGrub2 GRUB_TERMINAL setup in case of uefi we configured a text console terminal but graphics terminal works well with the shim efi module now
* Fri Dec 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Apply former overlayfs adaption to kiwi caching kiwi image caches are also based on overlayfs. Thus the changes in the mount call has to be adapted there too
* Fri Dec 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Adapt changes in overlayfs in kernel 3.18 Starting with overlayfs v22 the workdir mount option is required. In addition the module has been renamed from overlayfs to overlay which also impacts the mount options. In order to stay compatible kiwi implements a two way mount call, first with the legacy mount options and second with the current mount options
* Thu Dec 04 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.11 released
* Thu Dec 04 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setupBTRFSSubVolumes if a subvolume for e.g /var/spool should be created kiwi failed because the /var path did not exist. As a workaround people could add /var as a volume but if only /var/spool should be a volume and not /var there was no way to do it. This commit fixed it in a way that kiwi checks if the path to the volume exists and if not it is created prior to the creation of the subvolume
* Thu Dec 04 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- fix handling of source rpms when binaries require src and nosrc version The is the case when using glibc i686 or -32bit packages
* Wed Dec 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.10 released
* Wed Dec 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed recovery of EFI bootdata + restore EFI module provided by the rpm package. The one kiwi created is specific to the uuid of the root filesystem which changes on factory restore. + make sure correct linux/linuxefi and initrd/initrdefi commands are used in recovery grub config by checking against grub_platform to allow recovery in BIOS and EFI mode + make sure mkfs.fat exists in the initrd to allow recovery of EFI fat partition, actually implement recovery of EFI fat partition
* Tue Dec 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added restore of btrfs subvolumes in restore mode (bnc #908011) In oem recovery (restore) mode a new function named restoreBtrfsSubVolumes will be called if the root filesystem is btrfs based. The function will restore the configured subvolumes back to the factory state
* Tue Dec 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Force creation of recovery filesystem When kiwi setup the recovery partition with a filesystem it might find a bootloader installation in the recovery partition from an earlier attempt. This leads to a question on mke2fs and an abort of the oem installation as consequence.
* Mon Dec 01 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Be more exact which sector size value one can set It\'s the logical sector size one can specify for the target
* Mon Dec 01 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Deleted unused global information back in the time kiwi used device mapper snapshot to implemenet filesystem overlay techniques information about the snapshot size was needed. today kiwi uses overlayfs and thus this information is no longer used
* Fri Nov 28 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.9 released
* Thu Nov 27 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Call updateProtectiveMBR in GPT recovery mode for some reasons parted leaves an active partition in the protective MBR which can cause some EFIs to ignore the disk
* Thu Nov 27 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed backup of disk layout in recovery mode kiwi recovery creates a backup of the disk layout which includes bootloader code and partitions. For GPT there was no code to correctly store the table

* Tue Nov 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Set default bootloader to grub2 A new schema version 6.2 has been introduced in order to check for the bootloader attribute. If not set the bootloader is set to grub2. suboptimal bootloader settings based on arch and/or firmware in the code has been removed. The consistency of the bootloader setup will be handled by runtime checks exclusively
* Tue Nov 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update openSUSE 13.2 and SLES12 JeOS image descriptions Added which and dhcp-client packages explicitly to avoid conflicts for tools which uses which and not type. In addition the network stack requires dhcp-client config files under certain circumstances
* Mon Nov 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.7 released
* Mon Nov 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Check if hybrid disk device really exists Don\'t try to create a partition on a device which does not exist. This prevents a long loop of probing for a partition device which never can appear

* Fri Nov 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Support kiwi --describe for openSUSE 13.2 analysing and cloning of 13.2 systems added
* Thu Nov 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added fribidi and fbiterm to kiwi-media-requires package Unfortunately these two packages are not on the openSUSE 13.2 DVD. But kiwi uses fbiterm in the boot images. Thus users have to add the online repo in order to build. For 13.2 it\'s too late but with this change I hope the two packages will be placed on the DVD again
* Tue Nov 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup use of installBootLoader Instead of building device nodes out of the partition id\'s hash use the already existing device map information. That eliminates some unneeded logic as well as two helper methods used to find the right place for the device when only the partition id is known
* Mon Nov 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed suseStripKernel for updates/ modules If the dependency checker finds a dependency to a module in the updates or weak-updates directory the move of the module will fail because kiwi always uses updates/weak-updates modules and has moved them already. The dependency code however creates a new updates/weak-updates directory for the affected module and that causes a conflict when the original updates/weak-updates are moved back to the final place. In the end the result is that no updates/weak-updates module are present in the initrd
* Mon Nov 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Better error message in pxeSetupDownloadServer Be more descriptive if the PXE download server can\'t be found. In addition cleanup suse/rhel-dump to call pxeSetupDownloadServer instead of duplicating the code
* Mon Nov 17 2014 schwabAATTsuse.de- Don\'t remove kernel and initrd in KIWIMiniIsoPlugin

* Thu Nov 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.4 released
* Thu Nov 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed and cleanup unit test processing When running the unit tests the class KIWILog is overwritten in a way that a global kiwi logger is created from Common::ktLog but there is no declaration which really overwrites the KIWILog package to be a Common::ktLog. This patch fixes this and makes unit testing work in travis again. In addition methods from Common::ktLog no longer present in KIWILog were removed too
* Wed Nov 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed result bundler for vhd-fixed format There is a small inconsistency between the schema format setup and the extension used in the result file. The schema wants format=\"vhd-fixed\" and the file is written as file.vhdfixed
* Wed Nov 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.3 released
* Wed Nov 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Compress install PXE tarball using XZ Instead of tar\'s -z we use now -J for xz compression and also changed the output name to
*.install.tar.xz in order to allow the buildservice to match this file as a result
* Wed Nov 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.02.2 released

* Tue Nov 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update 13.2 JeOS template added default network setup on lan0
* Tue Nov 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of rpm tools rpm has removed the db related options --initdb and --rebuilddb from the master rpm command. They are only available in the rpmdb command. Thus kiwi should better search for the rpm tool chain and decide for the commands to use according to their existence
* Tue Nov 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update source path in 13.2 JeOS image description
* Wed Nov 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update jenkins prepare.sh test the jenkins worker needs dosfstools installed to work with efi build tests

* Wed Nov 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed make test Makefile target Don\'t remove the .revision file as part of make test because this conflicts with running make valid in parallel as done on jenkins. Only the make clean target should remove it
* Wed Nov 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed logging of first message The file handle for the first message log was not available at the time
* Wed Nov 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of repository alias names containing spaces All spaces are replaced by an underscore

* Mon Oct 27 2014 schwabAATTsuse.de- Set proper boot catalog in aarch64_efi
* Fri Oct 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t call makeIsoEFIBootable for product iso\'s The required data is provided by the installation-images- package and doesn\'t need to be created. In addition the method checks for the underlaying architecture which does not work when creating product iso\'s because there the underlaying architecture does not necessarily have to match the distro architecture
* Wed Oct 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.16 released
* Wed Oct 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setupDefaultFstab (bnc #900280) Instead of overwriting a potentially existing fstab file the function now adds missing entries and also checks if the source mount device really exists.
* Wed Oct 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Use btrfs as write partition for hybrid images (bnc #900922) For hybrid live iso images there is the optional support to create a write partition for data persistency. The initial creation of the filesystem can take a long time on e.g USB sticks. The creation of a btrfs filesystem without static inode tables is much faster. Thus the switch to btrfs
* Tue Oct 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.15 released
* Tue Oct 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Print /var/log/boot.kiwi file on reboot exception If a reboot exception is thrown in the boot code kiwi will print the current log file contents to the console before reboot. This allows systems like public clouds to provide a verbose information about the boot process
* Mon Oct 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.14 released

* Mon Oct 20 2014 cooloAATTsuse.de- readd lost promo dvd plugin
* Fri Oct 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setup of zypper repository name if no alias is specified If no alias name is given in the kiwi section, kiwi builds a name from the given source URI. If the source URI does contain credentials information appended as token after the RFC specified \'?\' sign the repo name contains this information too which results in an invalid repository name for zypper. In order to prevent this kiwi cuts off the information \'\\?.
*\' from the URI and build the name from the remaining part

* Fri Oct 10 2014 fcastelliAATTsuse.com- Compress Docker images using XZ This results in images requiring less disk space.
* Fri Oct 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Use -o loop for mounting read-write image Older systems (e.g RHEL 6) mount command is not able to detect a loop mount and requires the -o loop option in order to work
* Fri Oct 10 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- fix dependencies of s390 requires
* zipl was never an own package, it is part of s390-tools
* syslinux does not exist on SLES 12 s390
* Fri Oct 10 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- Also support new appdata format
* Wed Oct 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Again Fixed use of zypper package cache Not only the addrepo command but also other ones seems to remove the pkg-cache-dir if there is no associated repo available. Thus the preserve and restore of the package cache happens now before and after all zypper repo setup related commands are called
* Tue Oct 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.7 released
* Tue Oct 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update dhclientImportInfo Allow the function to export DHCPSIADDR from the dhcp-server-identifier information stored in the lease file created by the dhclient call

* Thu Oct 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.5 released
* Wed Oct 01 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of zypper package cache For unknown reasons zypper removes the pkg-cache-dir when calling the addrepo command. Because this is unwanted kiwi temporarly moves the current cache dir and moves it back after the addrepo call is done
* Wed Oct 01 2014 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild documentation
* Wed Oct 01 2014 msAATTsuse.de- DB: update documentation first review by the documentation department
* Tue Sep 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.4 released
* Tue Sep 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for custom boxname for vagrant images (bnc #896205) By default the name set to the vagrant .json file is the name of the image as specified in the kiwi XML description. However, in the world of https://vagrantcloud.com/, the convention for \"fully-qualified\" box names is \"ORGANIZATION/BOXNAME\" which does not apply to a standard kiwi image name. With the new boxname attribute people can now specify the name of the box to be vagrantcloud conform. e.g
* Tue Sep 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v7.01.3 released
* Tue Sep 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Add error message to log file if downloadFile failed
* Tue Sep 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed uninstall make target Delete /dev/shm/lwp-download created by kiwi

* Fri Sep 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.165 released
* Fri Sep 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure to wait for nic link up (bnc #898505)
* Thu Sep 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed double encoded luks system (bnc #898249) when kiwi builds a disk image it can either dump a filesystem image onto a raw partition or it rsync a tree of files onto a partition which has a filesystem created on top of a subsystem or a subsystem stack like lvm, luks, etc. In kiwi this is controlled by the value of the $treeAccess variable. If treeAccess is disabled but the support for syncing a tree in the given configuration is implemented this results in duplicate preparation of the filesystem and the subsystems which results in an unbootable mess.
* Thu Sep 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed passthrough of luks cipher (bnc #898249) kiwi passed the ciper using a shell echo command which is bad because the shell evaluates the contents of this information and might break the cipher if it contains shell meta characters. This patch fixes this by using a simple pipe stream to the cryptsetup process without invoking a shell command
* Thu Sep 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed URI credentials setup Make sure the ?credentials=kiwiRepoCredentials flag is only added to the url if the appropriate credentials file exists
* Tue Sep 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.164 released
* Tue Sep 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added missing filesystem provides for the xfs filesystem (bnc #897935) With the kiwi-filesystem:xfs Provides the buildservice is able to setup a build environment including the needed tools called by kiwi when building inside this environment
* Sun Sep 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.163 released
* Sun Sep 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for max storage device wait period (bnc #897516) Hannes Reinecke suggested to increase it to 60 seconds; 30 seconds is the typical I/O timeout value, so I\'d be giving it double the time to allow error handling to complete.
* Fri Sep 19 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.162 released
* Fri Sep 19 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Increase max per storage device wait period to 30 sec (bnc #897516)
* Fri Sep 19 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent activation of a partition on non x86 systems (bnc #897507) The active flag is used by legacy BIOS systems on x86 systems. On other architectures it could cause trouble because that information is not expected
* Fri Sep 19 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Eliminate use of haveBootPartition variable in the initrd code kiwi provides exact information in the partition ID\'s variables created when the image is build in setupPartIDs. The indicator if a boot partition is in use was not set correctly by the existing function. The indicator for a boot partition should be the filesystem label set to \'BOOT\' and the check if this partition is not equal to the root partition. In the repartition code the partition ID for the root partition is always defined correctly by the kiwi_RootPart variable and should not depend on any condition. That way there was no code left which requires and extra boolean haveBootPartition variable and also fixes the wrong pID assignment described in bug (bnc #897497)
* Fri Sep 19 2014 cooloAATTsuse.de- remove media check from mini iso (bnc#895021)
* Thu Sep 18 2014 cooloAATTsuse.de- make the mini isos reasonable size again instead of just removing the root file, remove all files actually downloaded from NET repo
* Wed Sep 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.161 released
* Wed Sep 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Add a post install script for kiwi The file /dev/shm/lwp-download will be removed in order to allow kiwi to create this file with the permissions it needs. The support to allow kiwi to run kiwi --info as non root user requires this cleanup step because lwp-download is created with permissions which allows root and normal users to call the script. former versions leaves a version of the script which doesn\'t allow non root users to call or change it which results in a raise condition for a non privileged --info call
* Wed Sep 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Really fixed package update from sle11 to sle12 (bnc #893340) the man pages were moved from kiwi-doc to the main kiwi package between sle11 and sle12. Thus the main kiwi package has to set a conflicts for the kiwi-doc package in versions < 5
* Wed Sep 17 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- KIWICollect: handle POOL flavors as \"ftp\" flavors (bnc#896930)
* Wed Sep 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file by adding missing requirements; tar and psmisc
* Tue Sep 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Allow kiwi --info to be called without root permission There is one exception though. If the repo is an iso file which needs to be loop mounted we still need root privileges to call the mount system call. In such a case kiwi will exit with a useful error message
* Tue Sep 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.160 released
* Tue Sep 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Improve spee of nic setup in netboot initrd (bnc #893788) With this commit the list of preferred interfaces which are either the BOOTIF interface or the list of all detected ones is used to run the dhcp discovery. The first successfully discovered interface is used to setup the default gateway and route as there can only be one
* Tue Sep 16 2014 schwabAATTsuse.de- linuxefi only exists in grub2 on x86
* Mon Sep 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed package build due to failed unit tests The unit tests failed when building on non x86 architectures because the test reference files for these architectures contained an unexpected newline at the end of the file. In addition subsequent tests should not fail which was the case because existing test tmpdirs were not correctly cleaned up
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Use legacy bios_grub partition only on ix86 and x86_64 (bnc #896445)
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.159 released
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fully document virtualsize attribute of in schema
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Move useLVM helper function into global space and explain conditions for using LVM or not in one central place
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added runtime check for the bootpartition requirements If the use of a bootpartition is explicitly disabled and one of the filesystems btrfs, zfs or xfs are used this is only supported with the grub2 bootloader.
* Fri Sep 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Implement preferlvm=\"true|false\" attribute for When using filesystems which provides a volume management like btrfs and zfs do, kiwi will make use of it by default. With the preferlvm attribute the user can overwrite the default and prefer LVM for volume management
* Thu Sep 11 2014 opensuseAATTadamspiers.org- make the two vagrant box templates more consistent This makes it easier to see the differences which really matter.
* Thu Sep 11 2014 opensuseAATTadamspiers.org- remove pointless $xmlsize assignment This assignment is pointless since $xmlsize will always get set to another value soon after.
* Thu Sep 11 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- do not publish appdata for source rpms
* Thu Sep 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make suseImportBuildKey more robust (bnc #896126) Check if dumpsigs tool exist and don\'t operate on files which do not exist

* Wed Sep 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added test_virtualboxGuestOS unit test
* Wed Sep 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update unit tests due to ovf osType adaptions
* Wed Sep 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed OVF creation for writing osType osType is a subsection of the OperatingSystemSection not an attribute osType was supported for VMware vmw: flagged systems. This patch adds osType support for virtualbox vbox: flagged systems too
* Tue Sep 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.158 released
* Tue Sep 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file requirement for perl-Config-IniFiles (bnc #895623) Older versions of this module doesn\'t have the \'exists\' method which is used by kiwi
* Tue Sep 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Remove obsolete/unused code from KIWILog::setFlag
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for message logging prevent obsolete in cache newline
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added missing lvmetad tool The tools is required to scan the LVM metadata if it does live on e.g md devices. It seems the default internal scanning did not work correctly on pvresize, vgchange, etc...
* Mon Sep 08 2014 aosthofAATTsuse.de- Fixed indentation
* Mon Sep 08 2014 aosthofAATTsuse.de- Corrected typo (s/sda1/hda1)
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed building of vagrant boxes (bnc #895353) If multiple boxes for different providers are built at once kiwi uses the result of the first build as input for the next one which is wrong because it should use the same raw disk file for all format conversions
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t create /var/run (/run) tmpfs for SLE11 systems (bnc #895417)
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed message logging Due to the status flags the sequence of log messages could look broken because of missing newlines at the end of a log message. This patch checks if a newline is required for the previos message when the next message is on the way
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed reset of cursor position to work on both stderr _and_ stdout This fixes messages displayed in flag colors to be correctly displayed in the standard terminal output color
* Mon Sep 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Put kiwiOVFConfigWriter.pm from critic level 2 to 3 because of too high code complexity for level 2. We need to refactor the ovf code but for now I just lowered the critic level
* Fri Sep 05 2014 opensuseAATTadamspiers.org- make it clear which directory couldn\'t be created If a previous build failed, it might have left the root directory behind. Giving the path in the error will help the user clean it up.
* Wed Sep 03 2014 aosthofAATTsuse.de- Added new firmware type \'ec2hvm\' to handle EC2 HVM instances properly
* Tue Sep 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed grub2 EFI setup for aarch64 (bnc #894307)
* Tue Sep 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed baseSetupUserPermissions (bnc #894378) The function should not operate on system user accounts. The function should not operate on accounts without login shell

* Fri Aug 29 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed broken ovf:href for image file Within the vagrant virtualbox box creation the vmdk file was renamed but this action broke the reference to that file inside the ovf config file
* Fri Aug 29 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent creation of custom /etc/ImagePackages in netboot The information there is created at image creation time already and the call increases the first boot time. This fixes (bnc #893776)
* Fri Aug 29 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure kiwi initrd creates /run/log dracut stores its log file there
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.155 released
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure kiwi initrd creates /run/lock (bnc #893624) The location for /var/lock has been moved to /run/lock and /var/lock is a symlink instead. /run is a tmpfs and thus the directory must be created properly
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.154 released
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Don\'t prevent the pre-init stage if root= is set in the cmdline If a root= information is passed to the cmdline kiwi uses this device and wrongly indicates the system has completed the first boot by setting LOCAL_BOOT=yes This prevents the correct setup of the bootloader device.map as well as the bootloader config to be written (bnc #893368)
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Prevent creation of custom /etc/ImagePackages file for the oem and vmx image types. The information there is created at image creation time already and the call increases the first boot time, related to (bnc #893368)
* Tue Aug 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed schema validation error output if the schema is invalid kiwi uses jing to create good error messages but the output of jing was not displayed
* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Adapt unit test due to last XSL change
* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed xsl/convert58to59.xsl to convert old controller=\'scsi\' to controller=\'lsilogic\' and not \'ide\' which unexpectedly changes the layout (bnc #893345)
* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed NFS root mount, use nolock option (bnc #892672)
* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed package update from sle11 to sle12 (bnc #893340) the man pages were moved from kiwi-doc to the main kiwi package between sle11 and sle12. Thus the main kiwi package has to set the correct file provides/obsoletes in order to avoid conflicts
* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- make sure e2fsprogs is installed explicitly in isoboot boot image descriptions for openSUSE 13.1/13.2 and SLE12 There is no package requirement for e2fsprogs which pulls it in (bnc #892087)

* Mon Aug 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed legacy service insert/remove using chkconfig suseInsertService and suseRemoveService can deal with native systemd services and legacy SYS V init scripts stored in /etc/init.d/. In case of legacy services a call to \"chkconfig /etc/init.d/${service} on|off\" is issued but fails because chkconfig only expects a service name and not a full path.
* Sun Aug 24 2014 tbechtoldAATTsuse.com- Set sudoers secure_path for vagrant examples secure_path is needed to find executables under i.e. /sbin/ when vagrant uses sudo. This fixes the problem when using vagrant-libvirt and sync a folder via 9p which leads currently to: ==> devstack1: mounting p9 share in guest modprobe 9p bash: line 2: modprobe: command not found
* Fri Aug 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.153 released

To prevent this the global DiskStartSector default is used if the DiskAlignment value is smaller. This behavior can be overwritten by using the parameter--disk-start-sector.
* Thu Jul 31 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Add notset support to the test log + The KIWILog implements notset indicators. The test log needs to handle this to support testing more code- Implement file comparison support + Thus far we have encoded reference results in the test directly.

* Mon Jun 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.123 released
* Mon Jun 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added prophet setup script Prophet uses the git api to set status messages in pull requests. In kiwi it\'s used to auto run the unit tests for each open request
* Sat Jun 28 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- allow \"raw\" as a format specifier + raw is the default image creation format and kiwi always creates a .raw file. However the user may want to specify the default as the format and we should not error out when the default is explicitly specified, as is the case today.
* Thu Jun 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.122 released
* Thu Jun 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed provides tags for main kiwi package The buildservice handles provides tags named kiwi-image: taken into account for setting up a buildsystem when an image build is requested. The tbz provides was missing and the lxc provides was wrong

* Fri Jun 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Correctly duplex stdout to /dev/console I still have the problem if we call e.g dialog in a new controlling terminal using setctsid all subsequent messages are only shown on this terminal even though the console might point to more devices which were correctly duplexed before setting a controlling terminal
* Wed Jun 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed building of firmware=\"ec2\" image in combination with grub2 The partition table type was set to gpt in this case but that is not desired for ec2 cloud images. In addition the partition setup was incomplete to allow successful installing of grub2 without a bios_grub partition which was not created for ec2 typed firmware images
* Tue Jun 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.118 released

* Mon Jun 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed error handling in recovery mode
* the progress information is shown by the continous output of a sub process of the calling shell. The sub-process has no access to the controlling terminal thus calling system exceptions there cause a hangup of the process at that stage. This patch fixes it by not calling exceptions and handling the result exit code of the sub-process outside
* Mon Jun 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed createFilesystem boot code function
* make sure btrfs creation uses -f option to force creation of filesystem even if another fs exists
* Mon Jun 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of recovery filesystem and rootfs type detection

* Thu Jun 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added better handling of custom/unpackaged file in analyser Instead of an auto generated sync script the code to sync the data moved into KIWIAnalyseSystem. by default no sync file information is configured but a descriptive markdown readme including an example is added to the generated description. The user now only needs to place a file called custom.sync describing which files/directories should be content controlled and any subsequent call of kiwi --describe will do the job
* Thu Jun 12 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- do not overwrite product release number if it is set to \"0\"
* Wed Jun 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update createCustomDataSyncScript
* the script now requires an argument which could be the kiwi generated custom.files file. if called without argument an information how to use the custom.sync script is displayed The reason why we changed from default use of custom.files to a self provided information is that on real systems many custom files and directories exists but not all of them needs to be tracked

* Wed Jun 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed kiwi --info --select repo-patterns
* For SLE12 and Factory the new pattern system is based on rpm packages. Thus the solvable metadata has changed. This commit allows to get the patterns from the repo for the old and the new pattern system

With bundle-build and the given build number and build target directory kiwi takes the information from the build target directory and bundles the user relevant image files as single files and/or tarball suitable for publishing.
* Tue Jun 03 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- KIWICollect: fix order of architectures if one repository contains multiple architecture versions of same rpm.
* Tue Jun 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Write a kiwi.buildinfo file for each build The buildinfo file contains information about the build which will be used to collect user relevant image files according to the requested image type and parameters. The result of a kiwi build could contain intermediate build results which will be embedded in the final result and stay in the result directory in order to allow faster rebuilds. There will be a new kiwi post processing command which collects only the important result image files and provide them together with a build number.
* Mon Jun 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- In preparation to support enable/disable of boot partition + remove obsolete boot_id/root_id code from grub2 codebase for grub2 we don\'t search via id, we search either by uuid or by flag file + for other bootloaders make sure boot_id is set to the root partition id if no explicit boot partition exists
* Mon Jun 02 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.105 released

* Sun May 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Be a bit smarter in best guess of the minimum size for the boot partition if we need one. The function __getBootSize now calculates the size using some parameters to keep roughly 100MB free. This is more accurate than using a fixed size min default value. Setting a custom value for the boot partition using the bootpartsize attribute results in + Use of bootpartsize without any message if it is bigger than recommended value + Use of bootpartsize with warning if it is smaller than recommended value
* Fri May 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.98 released

* Thu May 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.91 released
* Thu May 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Instead of a symlink named box.img to the actual image file in a vagrant box, directly store the image file under the name box.img. Older versions of vagrant did not work if box.img is a symlink

* Tue May 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added support for creating vagrant boxes In order to create a vagrant box the format parameter in the image type acts as trigger to start the box creation. Vagrant boxes requires some metadata in order to allow adding the box for a specific provider. Thus the following minimal type spec is needed e.g: The result .box file can be added to vagrant as follows vagrant box add /path/to/file.box Once added vagrant can run the box using the specified provider Please note the kiwi image for vagrant needs to provide some configuration like the existence of a user vagrant and ssh keys. All this can be achieved in a kiwi image description. For details visit: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/boxes/base.html

* Fri May 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of live iso images with flags=\"compressed\" In this mode the live setup is based on a split image type and did not allow to have a persistent data block available in the iso. This patch changed this so that you can also use the hybridpersistent=\"true\" feature when using the hybrid iso on e.g a usb stick to store new data persistently
* Fri May 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added live iso type to SLE11 JeOS template

* Tue May 06 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed directory check in cleanMount If no repo alias is set the repo uri is also used as name for the mount point directory. In this case the name could contain quoted characters. Perl\'s test operator can\'t deal with shell escaped directory names. Thus we check with the shell test built-in if the mount point directory exists

Instead the raid information is given in an additional RAID variable. Thus the pxePartitionInputGeneric function has to set the partition type \'fd\' if the RAID variable is set too.
* Wed Apr 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follow up fix for partedGetPartitionID
* return if no partition label could be detected
* Wed Apr 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make partedGetPartitionID more robust

* Tue Apr 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed message displayed when the partition table is created/updated. Even in the case of creating a new partition table the message said something about repartition of the disk which is misleading.

* Tue Apr 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.73 released
* Tue Apr 15 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- drop .channel files for products, generate .report files instead The approach to generate _channel file for OBS maintenance is not working, since it requires the knowledge of OBS setup internas. There we drop this here, let kiwi generate instead report files which document which files got used. We can use them for diffing results, for tracking build results in OBS and obs worker can generate _channel files with knowledge of setup internas.
* Tue Apr 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure lvm2 tools stay in oemboot for RHEL
* Tue Apr 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Apply sleep for a while to wait for wwids to other architectures boot code

* Mon Apr 14 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added __hasBootDescription runtime check Code written by Tim Hardeck. The test looks up the required boot image description according to the selected build type if no such description exists the build exit with an error telling the user which rpm package is missing on the build machine

In case of any other package manager the default repository type rpm-md is used. An information about the selected type is printed if no type is explicitly set In a sequence of repositories added via commandline arguments using --add-repotype still requires to specify the type for all given repositories in order to be able to correctly assign the type to the added repository in the same way as this is required for alias and priority information

That\'s because the repository metadata has changed with regards to the product definition and in addition patterns are now provided as extra packages. In order to stay compatible the suse-SLE12-JeOS template adds the installation of the base pattern and the SLES product by installing the appropriate packages and includes a comment describing that the definition of and only works if the build host uses the SLE12 zypper

* Thu Mar 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- added compatibility mode for EFI images on SLE11
* SLE11 supports EFI only via the elilo bootloader with one exception which is secure boot. In that mode the grub2 signed module is used and the functionality is hidden behind an elilo wrapper program so that all tools e.g yast doesn\'t have to really support grub2. In order to leave a SLES image in a supported state it was required to adapt to this layout in kiwi
* Thu Mar 13 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- use cloud-init + cloud-init works for us now, we no longer need to depend on the acient sles-ami-tools scripts.

*\' to the boot image descriptions for SLE12 and openSUSE 13.2. The kernel people decided to build ISO9660 support as module now (bnc #867834)
* Wed Mar 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed netboot overlay setup code Make sure setupUnionFS is called if UNIONFS_CONFIG is set In addition correctly update the devices set in the variable by the setupUnionFS function and make sure unionFST has a value in all union modes
* Wed Mar 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Removed master-boot-code to be a required package The mbr provided with this package is only used if kiwi is called with the --grub-chainload option and the concept also only works with legacy grub which is on its way to becoe obsolete
* Wed Mar 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed listImage() to print a message if no templates can be found
* Wed Mar 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Cleanup/Improve usage output If you just call kiwi without any arguments you got the long usage list which is not very helpful. Thus this has changed to print a message what you could do next including a list of currently available templates
* Tue Mar 11 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Removed unionfs-fuse from package list of netboot images because it\'s not part of the medias. If you need the support add the package in the system image XML as follows:

* Sun Mar 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed createCustomDataForType in analyser code Don\'t ignore empty directories- Added custom strip implementation in __stripCustomData which provides only the name of the directory if all data below this directory contains only custom files. Problem is that other types of data e.g repo checkouts might vanish from the report which is imho unwanted. Therefore the code is currently deactivated
* Fri Mar 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.48 released
* Fri Mar 07 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- support for user defined subdirs for susetag meta data written by Rudi

* Fri Mar 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed misleading error message in setupReadWrite (bnc #867174) The function uses \'mount\' to test if the read-write location can be mounted. If not or RELOAD_IMAGE is set the read-write part is created from scratch and that action is logged accordingly. The possible error message from the mount call is a false positive information here and just makes people nervous :) Thus should not be logged
* Fri Mar 07 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- support non-standard rpm directories for products Can be used to create pool channels without a suse/ subdirectory. Written by roAATTsuse.de

* Thu Mar 06 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- create channel file templates for products This is replacing the .packages generation code since it is similar, but the channel files are better defined and structured.
* Thu Mar 06 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Add check for EFI fat image on iso media in makeIsoEFIBootable If the EFI fat image already exists don\'t recreate it. When building product media the image is provided by the installation-images-

* Mon Mar 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make git a recommended package in the spec file Modularize analyser code to work with and without git
* Mon Mar 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed suseGFXBoot graphics boot setup with gfxboot-devel Because of the change which uses isolinux as loader for install ISO media and not the configured disk bootloader as eltorito alternative loader we need both boot graphics formats available the one for isolinux as well as the one for the selected system bootloader. The code in suseGFXBoot reflects this for the boot graphics provided by packages but not if the user provides a custom tarball for use with gfxboot-devel
* Mon Mar 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed misleading function names getInstallFailsafe -> getInstallProvideFailsafe setInstallFailsafe -> setInstallProvideFailsafe This is all about if a failsafe menu entry should be provided to the image boot configuration or not. Thus the function names should describe this and not lead to the assumption that one can select the failsafe entry from the boot menu which is actually done by the installboot=\"failsafe-install\" attribute
* Mon Mar 03 2014 msAATTsuse.de- the controller type \'scsi\' does not exist for VMware lsilogic and buslogic define scsi controllers. Thus use lsilogic as the default scsi controller

* Fri Feb 28 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.42 released
* Thu Feb 27 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed createS390CDLoader() for s390 media creator The s390 loader file cd.ikr was created on demand but the new installation-images packages provide this file. Thus there is no reason to create it if it already exists
* Thu Feb 27 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed custom files analyser More intuitive and not only directory based level 1 search in / Fix for rpm directory strip, expression would match e.g /emil in the same way as /emil1 which is wrong

* Thu Feb 27 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setupNetworkWicked Use bin/wickedd-dhcp4 instead of the mainstream wicked program wicked relies on dbus which is not helpful within an initrd environment. Fortunately there is the wickedd-dhcp4 helper which just asks for the lease from the DHCP. The setup of the network interface and routing is then done by setupNetworkWicked but will change in the future if wicked becomes more mature
* Wed Feb 26 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure ip command is part of the oem and netboot image descriptions starting with openSUSE 13.2 and SLE12. Instead ifconfig is no longer part of these descriptions

* Tue Feb 25 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update list of recommended packages in spec file Problem here is that by default SUSE installs with recommended packages which in case of kiwi will cause a huge workload because e.g the recommended jing package pulls the entire java stack.

* Mon Feb 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed nbd-client invocation in netboot (bnc #865237) nbd has changed it\'s negotiation style from port based server to name based exports. Thus the client has to connect to an export name and not a port the server listens to Example NBD server config: [generic] user = root group = root [export1] exportname = /some/file Example NBD localhost test: nbd-server -C config-file nbd-client -N export1 localhost /dev/nbd0
* Sun Feb 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- make sure overlayfs and ext4 are part of the netboot boot image descriptions for 13.1/13.2 SLED12/SLES12 (bnc #865229)

* Sat Feb 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed setupBootPartitionPXE in a NFSROOT setup the variable imageRootDevice is not empty but does not point to a real local device, it points to an nfs root mountpoint. Thus we need to leave the function early because setting up a boot partition doesn\'t make any sense (bnc #865229)

* clicfs has a successor with overlayfs and should no longer be recommended
* lvm2, squashfs and master-boot-code are relevant requires for building disk based images. Thus they are needed along with the kiwi-desc-vmx|oemboot sub-packages but not with the kiwi base package
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Compatibility fix for the \'git init\' call older versions of git do not accept a directory as parameter like the version we have in SLE11
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.35 released
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed writeXML
* The creation of the package items should use the native XML methods and not directly hook into the internal data structure
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Removed code reducing a package list to the minimum required solver list. The result is correct but it takes long if many packages are installed and the result is not uniq
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.34 released
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed creation of kiwi template description in kiwi --describe
* use a fixed bootstrap section as default to avoid solver problems when building a new system from scratch
* add analysed packages and patterns to the image section and not to bootstrap so that they will be installed by the native installer inside the chroot
* instead of adding items to a delete section add them as ignore this will make use of the zypper al feature and is the better approach
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed capability check for old satsolver perl binding
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.33 released
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added git clone url to the result of kiwi --describe
* also added a function getIPAddress which is used for the clone url as well as for the custom files sync script
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed return value for getHardwareDependantPackages if no such packages was found the function should return undef instead of a pointer to an empty data structure
* Fri Feb 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed udev rule for suse-SLE12-JeOS lan0 nic name the match for KERNEL was still based on eth
*

* Tue Feb 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added wicked as package for SLE12 JeOS
* Tue Feb 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed report page, not all views got a hyper link
* Tue Feb 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Changed the way how custom files are populated in kiwi --describe
* Formerly this was done by creating a hard linked list below a directory called custom/ But this has bad effects e.g on programs checking how many hardlinks exist on a config file like it is done by e.g postfix. Thus we now store a file custom.files instead of an entire tree containing all custom files as input to an auto generated rsync script custom.sync On the report page the script is described and the user can now either sync all of its custom files which is in most cases not wanted or adapt the custom.files prio to the sync. Later there might also be a more convenient way to fiddle with custom.files
* Tue Feb 18 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Stop D3 displayed items at max_child = 5 and display the information how many more items exists
* Mon Feb 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure to canonical encode the perl hash to json
* Mon Feb 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed typos in analyser code

* add generic setupInitrd function which checks for either dracut or mkinitrd and prefers dracut if present
* Fri Feb 14 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fix suse-SLE12-JeOS description to work fur current Alpha Release
* Patterns are broken at the moment. They contain packages not part of SLE12 at the moment, e.g yast2-mouse. Thus comment out use of base pattern for the moment
* There are no SLES12 branding packages available. Thus comment out grub2 and plymouth branding
* Thu Feb 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Improve searching for custom files Make the code more readable, also skip proc/devpts/sysfs filesystems Along with that search in junks and make sure the xargs limit is not exceeded. Also reduce the list of searched directories with regards to the recursive search done by find
* Wed Feb 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of config-yast-autoyast.xml If this file is present in the kiwi configuration directory, kiwi setup an environment which activates the call of autoyast on first boot. The file install.inf controlls this environment. With this patch the parameter \'Textmode\' will be set to \'0\' which activates the start of yast on a X-Server and falls back to ncurses mode if no X-Server can be started
* Wed Feb 12 2014 dvaleevAATTsuse.com- Bless grub2 binary for pmac Signed-off-by: Dinar Valeev

* Thu Feb 06 2014 Kanstantsin_ShautsouAATTepam.com- Print user/group IDs.
* Wed Feb 05 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added preCallInit hook call to netboot boot image descriptions This hook already existed in oem and vmx boot images and was still not added to netboot
* Tue Feb 04 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkYaSTenvironment() runtime check With this check kiwi searches the given package list for entries starting with \'yast2\' in order to make sure the user has at least added one yast client module if either the use of autoyast or the yast2 firstboot service was requested as part of the image description. It has turned out that people using autoyast in kiwi often forget to add the required YaST client packages. This check cannot make sure that the autoyast profile works correctly, it also does not know which client packages are required but it at least gives a hint if no yast stack is installed
* Tue Feb 04 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed JeOS image descriptions Added a function suseRemoveYaST which removes the yast packages if they are not needed by e.g autoyast or firstboot service. Replaced the unconditional remove of yast packages in all JeOS config.sh scripts by the new function
* Tue Feb 04 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Implementation of new analyser code. Refactor the existing code to run faster and removed unused analyser code. In addition some tasks are done by shell scripts with regards to be able to use the same code in the Alfred project
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- don\'t limit suseInsertService to .service suffix for systemd
* The service file is now searched in several directories and as suffix .system and .mount is allowed
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.25 released
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed setupNetwork() function in order to assign a network interface according to the BOOTIF MAC address information kiwi searches through a list of mac addresses and if found assigns the appropriate interface. This search was broken because the MAC from BOOTIF is lowercase whereas the mac list contains upper case data. Thus the mac list data is turned into lowercase to allow a correct matching
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Make sure image is filled with random data prior to the creation of a luksFormat on it
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added __hasBootLoaderTools runtime check With this check we test if the tool chain to install the requested bootloader is installed on the image build machine
* Fri Jan 31 2014 msAATTsuse.de- added type attribute This attribute allows to select a specific set of options passed to the cryptsetup call in order to create a consistent luks format supported by the capabilities of the selected distribution. With this commit luksOS=\"sle11\" will be supported
* Fri Jan 31 2014 Kanstantsin_ShautsouAATTepam.com- Added fedora deps.
* Thu Jan 30 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.24 released
* Wed Jan 29 2014 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIAnalyseTemplate
* use single quotes for URL and Alias when setting up repos in the auto generated config.sh template. This is needed if the URL uses special characters which are evaluated in the shell
* Wed Jan 29 2014 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIAnalyseManagedSoftware
* added analyser for packages to become deleted. when inspecting the system the code now also compares the result of the solved required packages list with the currently installed packages. packages required by the solver but not installed are treated as unwanted and put into a delete typed packages section
* Tue Jan 28 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Remove desktop profile from SLE12 boot image descriptions (bnc #860792)
* SLES12 will not provide a kernel-desktop package

* make sure non existing mount point directories are created
* allow the volume name .snapshot(s) to be a valid name
* Tue Jan 28 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkHaveTypeToBuild runtime check With this check the presence and selection of a build type is checked
* Tue Jan 28 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added __checkCorrectRootFSPermissons runtime check With this check kiwi validates the consistency of the created unpacked root tree while calling the create step. Consistency means a number of LSB toplevel directories is checked for their correct root/root owner and group name. Recently people using NFS or ZFS as image target directory ran into the problem that the filesystem stores files under the nobody user identity even if the caller was root. The result is a completely broken system which should be prevented by this runtime check
* Mon Jan 27 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- generate \"scsi\" as the device type prefix for all controllers except for ide in the .vmx file
* Mon Jan 27 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- support a boottimeout value of 0 + at present we checked for boottimeout value to evaluate to true, but in Perl the string \"0\" evaluates to false although the string is not empty, thus the truth test failed an we used the default of 10
* Fri Jan 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.23 released
* Fri Jan 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed GRUB_TIMEOUT setup in etc/default/grub the kiwi boot code did not hand over the value from the XML space to the appropriate grub config file so that grub2-mkconfig did not incorporate the value
* Fri Jan 24 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed invocation of oemboot::postImageDump hook script The hook should be called in any case no matter which other oem install options are defined
* Fri Jan 24 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- ec2 example for 13.1 + forgot to commit this with the doc changes in 87b49253440eda
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.22 released
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- make sure /var/cache/kiwi/satsolver exists when running a solver job

* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file, the perl requirement should not be strictly set on a specific perl version, >= the distro version is more accurate
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file, db45-utils should be a generic recommendation
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file, squashfs exists on all supported versions no suse_version check needed anymore
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file, clicfs is not a requirement
* Thu Jan 23 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added libsolv support to KIWISatSolver The class supports libsatsolver and libsolv, if libsolv is present it is preferred because it\'s the successor of libsatsolver
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- restructure KIWISatSolver class In preparation to support libsolv the satsolver class has been redesigned to work with both the libsatsolver and the libsolv implementations. Support for libsolv will follow soon
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed use of system installed solvables in KIWIAnalyseManagedSoftware
* instead of reading all existing solv files in /var/cache/zypp we only use those which are enabled in the zypper repo list
* Wed Jan 22 2014 adrianAATTsuse.de- add new mediastyles openSUSE 13.2 and SLE 12 to support handling of cpeid tags
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed typo in suse-12.3-JeOS/config.xml
* accidentally committed an attribute change which was only meant to test a runtime check
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- some changes to the arm suse-13.2-JeOS template and code
* currently suse-13.2-JeOS contains only a profile for raspberry
* the vboot support uses no gpt if the berryboot loader is set
* vboot + berryboot creates a boot setup which let the standard raspberry loader chainload our uboot which then loads the kernel and initrd from a linux ext2 second partition
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild documentation
* updates EC2 chapter, kiwi uses disk images instead of flat filesystem images now to support EC2
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed docbook syntax for changes recently done in kiwi-doc-ec2.xml
* Wed Jan 22 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed KIWISatSolver to work with new solvables Unfortunately I was told that the current solver bindings provided with the perl-satsolver package will no longer be maintained. Instead there will be a new lib and package called libsolv. kiwi needs to adapt to the bindings for libsolv in order to stay compatible with the solver results of the zypper package manager. At the moment the problem of the new \"self-conflict\" feature could be solved by setting set_allow_self_conflicts in the old satsolver library, which is what this patch does. For the future we need to support libsolv though
* Tue Jan 21 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- final touches for EC2 changes + let kiwi add root= to the kernel command line for EC2 images this is needed to get the drivers to load properly + consider installfailsafe setting for grub vmx images
* Tue Jan 21 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- update the documentation for the EC2 image build + document new commands to use for uploading images aws-cli vs ec2-
* commands + changes due to the new way of building images- we no longer create the bundle in kiwi _ adjust for removed XML elements- update the examples to reflect the new type element setup for EC2
* Tue Jan 21 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- fix spelling EC2 not Ec2
* Tue Jan 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- follow up fix for KIWIGlobals::mount() method let the check for disk or filesystem also work if blkid does not support PTTYPE detection. In this case we assume a disk if we don\'t get any blkid information. Older versions of blkid don\'t support partition table type detection
* Tue Jan 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed vmx type definition for EC2 usage in all templates
* use ec2 and ec2k boot and kernel profiles
* Tue Jan 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update oem/vmx boot image descriptions to allow selecting an ec2 setup profile and an ec2 kernel profile
* Tue Jan 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Support creation of install CD images for Xen dom0 oem type
* Tue Jan 21 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed KIWIGlobals::mount() method The detection for a disk device is now done by checking for PTTYPE using blkid
* Mon Jan 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed typo, missing result flag
* Mon Jan 20 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- Change the way we create an EC2 image + Previously we created an EC2 image as a flat filesystem image this requred some special codeing and we ended up calling mkinitrd from within kiwi. As mkinitrd evolved to require a live root filesystem and with the impending move to dracut we need to start using a kiwi generated initrd. Therefore, EC2 image will now be created as disk images just like other vmx images. We also drop the use of the external ec2-ami-tools. Creating abundle is relatively easy and this functionality requires people to add thei EC2 credentials to the config file. That makes it easy to accidentally share private information. + Remove XML elemnts ec2config and its children ec2accountnr, ec2certfile, ec2privatekeyfile, ec2region + Introduce \"ec2\" as a firmware option we need this to set the partition table to be gpt instead of msdos + Print an error message for format=\"ec2\" during XML validation we maintain format=\"ec2\" in the schema for now to allow us to generate a more sensible error message than the parser would. This is an incompatible schema change + Remove EC2 region check in Validator + Remove KIWIEC2Region.txt + Update unit tests + Properly pass the boottimeout setting to the initrd config + Remove the XMLEC2Data object and its unit tests + Remove special code for EC2 initrd creation calling mkinitrd
* Mon Jan 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed ec2 kernel profile for 13.1/13.2 and SLE11/12 the required xen drivers were not added when using ec2 profile the xen package must not be installed when using ec2 profile
* Mon Jan 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- added ec2Flavour profile to create EC2 VMX disk image types along with this change the examples using format=\"ec2\" were adapted to disk layout instead of flat (filesystem) layout too
* Mon Jan 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed spec file Provide a better and more detailed description about the use and scope of the kiwi-tools sub-package
* Mon Jan 20 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Follup fix for suse-13.2 arm JeOS image template, again repo setup

* Fri Jan 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Changed SLES/SLED boot image descriptions to install all packages in one host zypper controlled bootstrap step. This allows using these descriptions also with older SLES products which provides a not supported zypper version
* Fri Jan 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed misleading error message when mapping the kernel file name to a common name. If a file with this name alredy exists we print an error but there is no error.
* Fri Jan 17 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update template/armv7l/suse-13.2-JeOS
* fix source path for Factory ARM, remove obsolete driver data
* Thu Jan 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.20 released
* Thu Jan 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed use of new KIWIFilesystemOptions object There were still references using fsopts as array and not object reference
* Thu Jan 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.19 released
* Thu Jan 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- handle packages marked as bootincluded in the bootstrap phase of the image build and not in the image phase.
* Thu Jan 16 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Update arm JeOS image descriptions
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed labels configured in isolinux.msg The isolinux.msg is the text file displayed if no graphics theme could be displayed in the isolinux bootloader. In that message file the label \"Boot from Hard Disk\" was missing
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIManagerZypper, allow package locks Using an ignore statement in the section like this did not had an effect because kiwi did not set a zypper add lock on the specified items. This patch now takes care for the ignore setup and allows to prevent the installation of packages even if zypper would have selected them. If a hard required package e.g glibc is set to become ignored this of course will cause a non solvable conflict and the process exits with an error
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added install ISO compatibility link for non standard EFI firmware EFI/Boot -> EFI/BOOT
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Fixed grub2 prefix setup in grub.cfg. if $root is changed by a search it\'s important to update the prefix accordingly- Fixed grub2-bios-setup call If the install disk is loop mounted while calling grub2-bios-setup the call fails the install command can\'t deal with disk devices mapped in /dev/mapper
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIImageFormat fixed use of qemu-img adapter_type option. If controller ist set to \'ide\' no adapter_type needs to be specified because ide is the default
* Wed Jan 15 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Allow vmxboot to boot Xen EC2 instances In order to do that the boot device setup code now also searches for the presence of the \'root=...\' information from cmdline as it is passed when booting via EC2. If found the given device is used and the system boots in LOCAL_BOOT mode
* Tue Jan 14 2014 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIAnalyseManagedSoftware use system installed solvables from /var/cache/zypp/solv. This speedup the system inspection task (kiwi --describe)
* Mon Jan 13 2014 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.18 released

* The quiet parameter was not evaluted correctly and caused a wrong code workflow and broke the solver result
* Improved performance of the solver. The preparation of the pool should happen only once
* Sun Jan 12 2014 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild schema documentation
* Fri Jan 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Removed static eth0 dhcp network setup from JeOS 13.1/13.2/SLE12 templates. Reason for the change is that network device names are no longer persistent starting with openSUSE 13.1. Thus we don\'t know about the device at build time and cannot safely provide an ifcfg- configuration.
* Fri Jan 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- Added in code debug switch for grub2 Currently grub2 debugging is switched off by default but for getting more information while grub2 loads it\'s useful to activate the debug flag by commenting out the line in the code
* Fri Jan 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- added gfxboot-branding-SLES package to SLES JeOS image template when building install media we want graphics :-)
* Fri Jan 10 2014 msAATTsuse.de- added cleanup code for /var/cache/kiwi/zypper/repos kiwi should only use the relevant .repo files according to the repositories specified in the XML description
* Thu Jan 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- mount isofrom location with -o nolock (bnc #857824)

* Thu Jan 09 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed evaluation of $hybrid variable in createImageLiveCD The value is an integer not a string, thus checking for \"true\" will not cause the correct effect. This fixes the problem that isohybrid was not called even if the hybrid attribute was set in the XML description
* Wed Jan 08 2014 msAATTsuse.de- make sure mountpoint and checkproc tools stay in initrd (bnc #857824)
* Tue Jan 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed test for mounted directory in unit test ktTestCase.pm helper module
* if /kiwi is a mountpoint the script takes the wrong decision
* Tue Jan 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- compatibility fix for prove command on older versions of perl

* Tue Jan 07 2014 msAATTsuse.de- fixed push to array to work also with older perl versions
* Sat Jan 04 2014 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- move the filesystem options into an Object + eliminate a method in the Globals singleton that is FS independent, confusing and returns data structure that gets indexed, making data access error prone + first step to moving filesystem options into XML and unifying it with existing ZFS setting in the XML + we should not have disconnected ways of dealing with filesystem options + this will help with the implementation of
*Builder classes for the various filesystems- fix type in the command line test trigger- fix inconsistency when applying tune options for ext file systems for the root file system + previously it was possible that both user specified tune options and built in kiwi option were passed to tune2fs. The tune2fs manpage does not specify the behavior when the same option is specified twice
* Thu Jan 02 2014 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- Switch to kmod-compat Otherwise you\'ll get a conflict in the build service: conflict for provider of module-init-tools needed by kiwi-desc-oemboot-requires, (provider module-init-tools is conflicted by installed kmod-compat)

* Mon Dec 16 2013 dvaleevAATTsuse.de- Add templates for ppc64le
* Mon Dec 16 2013 msAATTsuse.de- arm: berryboot fixes
* berryboot can\'t read directories, thus we have to keep kernel and initrd and all other files on the toplevel of the fat32
* berryboot does not pass ATAG_INITRD2 to the kernel, thus we have to set address and size ourselves
* Mon Dec 16 2013 msAATTsuse.de- make sure gfxterm and gfxmenu are embedded into grub loader module
* Fri Dec 13 2013 msAATTsuse.de- arm: make sure the fat32 filesystem is created with the -I option + See mkdosfs for details on the -I switch. This finally fixes the boot problems on the Raspberry-Pi boards
* Fri Dec 13 2013 guillaume.gardetAATToliseo.fr- Update copyBootCode function

* Thu Dec 12 2013 msAATTsuse.de- Update all JeOS templates to include the gfxboot-branding if the selected image type is \"oem\". This is done to have a graphics boot menu for install iso images
* Thu Dec 12 2013 msAATTsuse.de- Use isolinux to boot an install CD + Instead of using the bootloader selected for the image raw disk to boot the install iso we use isolinux which is the correct loader for an iso. In addition this now also allows to create hybrid install iso images
* Wed Dec 11 2013 msAATTsuse.de- on construction of a KIWIXML instance, return early if no pointer to the image configuration directory is defined
* Wed Dec 11 2013 msAATTsuse.de- added better comments describing what eltorito boot image is used for an install ISO
* Tue Dec 10 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.13 released

* clean list view, no empty lines
* Tue Dec 10 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.12 released
* Tue Dec 10 2013 msAATTsuse.de- Added better in-code documentation in KIWIAnalyseCustomData and improved the code flow by reducing the set of unmanaged data with the rpm managed data in the first place- fixed all KIWIQX::qxx calls which are called in list context The result of KIWIQX::qxx is always in scalar context, calling in list context will put the result as one element of the list
* Tue Dec 10 2013 rjschweiAATTsuse.com- cleanup the evaluation of kiwi_ variables inside the initrd + the following elements/attributes accepts true|false values: , compressed, hybrid, hybridpersistent and ramonly These settings are propagated without changes to the linuxrc code that evaluates the variable to decide whether or not to perform an action. The evaluation in the shell code was based on yes|no an old relic that used to be use in the XML a long time ago. This update changes the evaluation in the shell code to true|false.
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.11 released
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- update releasetags helper tool

* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.10 released
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed setup of size of boot partition of an install stick
* the original code just uses the size of the initrd to estimate a size for the boot partition of the install stick. But this might be too small. Thus the function __getBootSize which also evaluates the value of the bootpartsize attribute is used
* Mon Dec 09 2013 dvaleevAATTsuse.de- Added ppc64le link to system/repo
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.9 released

* The initial kiwi initrd and the kernel are in boot/
* Mon Dec 09 2013 adrianAATTsuse.de- fixed instsource-plugins support for kiwi v5.06.8
* the change in the KIWIQX module no longer exporting qxx had an impact on the instsource-plugin code. This patch changes the call to a class method call KIWIQX::qxx
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed KIWIRuntimeChecker::__checkSystemDiskData
* if a mountpoint with a custom name is given for a volume the check incorrectly used the name as path but it should use the mountpoint as path in this case
* Mon Dec 09 2013 msAATTsuse.de- arm: berryboot fixes:
* make sure KIWIConfig::suseGFXBoot copies all required firmware and loader files from the boot image to the system image below /image/loader
* Sun Dec 08 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed simple initrd creation mode (bnc #854321)
* in this mode the inheritance of data from a system to the boot image is not needed because there is no system image just the boot image description. This fixes the handling of profiles passed on the commandline
* Sun Dec 08 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed simple initrd creation mode (bnc #854321)
* in this mode no image type was passed because the default build type from the configuration \'cpio\' should be used. Depending on the type the selection to build a boot image or not is done but at the time of the selection the selected build type variable was not set
* Fri Dec 06 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed copyBootCode method
* if no jump partition is set the function still has to proceed in order to check for boot code which needs to be copied if other bootloaders e.g uboot/berryboot are in use
* Fri Dec 06 2013 msAATTsuse.de- v5.06.8 released
* Fri Dec 06 2013 msAATTsuse.de- berryboot fixes:

* if logging to the terminal is requested this variable is empty
* Thu Dec 05 2013 msAATTsuse.de- Simplify and cleanup the command executor module KIWIQX
* There is no code creating instances of KIWIQX, thus we only need class methods and should call as such
* If called within the package context the exit status will stay but can still be evaluated as part of the package. That way we can keep the backtrace feature and can better check if enough resources to call the command existed
* Wed Dec 04 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed extending the LVRoot volume
* if the size of the root volume is set via the AATTroot attribute in systemdisk and no other allfree volume was specified the LVRoot volume was extended twice times. first with the specified size which is ok and later to the full space because no other volume was specified to take the rest space. The last resize is unwanted in that case.
* Wed Dec 04 2013 msAATTsuse.de- DB: rebuild documentation
* Wed Dec 04 2013 msAATTsuse.de- DB: update kiwi man page
* added information about new options added in previos commit
* Wed Dec 04 2013 msAATTsuse.de- Added the following options to the analyse custom files code 1. [ --skip-gem-lookup ]\
\"; Don\'t check for files managed by gem. Files managed by gem will then appear as unmanaged files 2. [ --skip-rcs-lookup ] Don\'t check for files managed by revision control systems like git, svn, osc, etc... Files from such repositories will then appear as unmanaged files. 3. [ --skip-augeas-lookup ] Don\'t check for files known to augeas. Files managed by augeas will then appear as unmanaged files.

* Wed Dec 04 2013 dvaleevAATTsuse.de- kernel-ppc64 -> kernel-default
* Starting with openSUSE 12.3, powerpc doesn\'t have special kernel flavor anymore.
* Tue Dec 03 2013 msAATTsuse.de- update example image descriptions in doc/ to make use of suseConfig again as long as we don\'t have a solution to use the systemd tools inside a chroot without affecting the host system setup
* Tue Dec 03 2013 msAATTsuse.de- deactivate the use of systemd helper tools
* The following functions have been disabled because they use the systemd tools timedatectl and localectl. Problem is that these tools doesn\'t work correctly from within a chroot environment. They access the dbus daemon from the host system and thus they change the currently active configuration on the host system which is unwanted setupHWclock setupKeyboardMap setupLocale setupTimezone Instead the old suseConfig kiwi function is used again This function simply changes the configuration files inside the chrooted system tree. suseConfig is called as part of the config.sh kiwi script
* Mon Dec 02 2013 msAATTsuse.de- make sure search via \'type -p\' has a full path list- make sure the --nocolor option is used with the spin indicator

* Wed Nov 27 2013 msAATTsuse.de- eliminate the use of which in boot code
* which is an extra tool, it was packages, splitted, dropped and is handled differently in the pool of distributions. Instead type -p provided as shell builtin is used
* Sun Nov 24 2013 magist3rAATTgmail.com- Added xz compression support for initrd
* by default gzip compression is in use but you can switch on xz compression with the following entry in the .kiwirc file our $IrdZipper = \"xz\"
* Fri Nov 22 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed check for empty destination in cloneImage function
* Fri Nov 22 2013 msAATTsuse.de- fixed OVA creation

* Wed Nov 13 2013 msAATTsuse.de- update kiwi schema to version 5.9
* removed scsi as allowed value from vmdisk controller attribute
* Wed Nov 13 2013 msAATTsuse.de- added new xsl stylesheet 5.8 -> 5.9
* the controller type \'scsi\' does not exist for VMware. lsilogic and buslogic define scsi controllers. Thus this attribute value is moved back to the default \'ide\' value Using new controller types requires a specific version of qemu-img which means the only safe translation is back to ide

* the default repo setup pointed to 12.3, but should point to 13.1 This is just for completeness and does not hurt because the repo setup for the boot image is inherited by the repo setup from the system image. But for standalone boot image builds it\'s corrected now- arm: fixed openSUSE 13.1 JeOS motd file
* printed some old information about 12.3

* the test checks for inconsistent patternType combinations in specified profile groups incl. the default group.- changed the function getInstallOption() to decide for the patternType with the highest priority according to the selected profile group(s). The behavior before was to ignore the patternType if it was not the same value over all selected packages sections. This is imho too restrictive- update the unit tests accordingly
* Thu Oct 31 2013 msAATTsuse.de- on arm uboot can only boot with a uImage or a zImage thus in case of the zImage kiwi should make use of it
* Thu Oct 31 2013 msAATTsuse.de- KIWIAnalyse: added function importDatabases() to KIWIConfig.sh in order to allow the import of complete database sets.
