--make-pxe-live target generate live squashfs and initrd for pxe boot.
Also generates pxe config template.
--make-ostree-live is used for installations of Atomic Host. Additionally to
--make-pxe-live it ensures using deployment root instead of physical root of
installed disk image where needed. Atomic installation needs to be virt
installation with /boot on separate partition (the only way supported by
Anaconda currently). Content of boot partition is added to live root fs so that
ostree can find deployment by boot configuration.
Add iso creation and switch to using gcdaa64.efi instead of grubaa64.efi

Virtual machines easily get starved for randomness, and Anaconda insists
on sufficient amounts of entropy when the user requests LUKS disk
encryption. As a result, such installations can hang until Anaconda gives
up (after 10 minutes) and makes do with whatever entropy is available.
The virtualization host can feed randomness to the guest, unblocking the
installation. However, the guest can only consume that randomness through
the virtio-rng module. Let's not remove that module.

Older versions of petitboot don't understand the for loop and won't
boot. We also don't shipt 32 bit media anymore so there is no reason
for this to remain.

We started including it as an unintended side-effect of commit 9ca487f8.
lvm doesn't like it when there are multiple 'global' sections in lvm.conf,
and we add one right at the end of that block. We expect ours to be the

We have shim and grub working together on aarch64 now, so we may as well
use them.
(this also makes the case of boot${arch}.efi not mixed-case, which
should guarantee it's in FAT rather than VFAT...)

The installation from DVD on s390x needs setting the target disks and
network information that are usually set by editing the generic.prm file.
By including the "rd.cmdline=ask" parameter dracut will open a simple
dialog so the user can enter the required information.

Currently, yaboot is the ISO boot loader in fedora and the Fedora on
POWER team is making an effort in order to replace it by GRUB2 in the
F20 release cycle. I'm sending a lorax patch so you guys can comment
on it. I'm planning to create a feature page for that too.
This patch only change the lorax template for ppc and should not
affect other archs, like x86.

The ppc config files were missing from the live config_files directory
and ppc needs the correct lib directory so lmc has been switched to use
ArchData driven from the installed kernel arch.

lockdown.efi only exists in the beta, but it'll probably also exist in
the 7.1 beta. So don't toss this stuff out completely, but don't use it
if shim doesn't provide lockdown.efi either.

The background images are not used during install, as well as a number
of other items from redhat-logos. There was also a bug -- product.name
did not expand to 'redhat' so it wasn't removing anything from the -logos
package.

Right now, logind reserves tty6 for a login shell, which is not what we
want - normally anaconda puts Xorg there, and there's no need for a
login prompt anyway.
This configures logind to activate "anaconda-shell@.service" when a user
switches to an unused tty, and reserves tty2 for that purpose (which is
where users expect a shell anyway).
This will avoid us having login prompts that users don't know what to do
with. It also probably saves us a little bit of RAM.
Use redhat-upgrade-dracut for the RHEL version of the system-upgrade
dracut module. upgrade.img also needs the convertfs module for upgrades
from RHEL6.

The xkeybard-config .mo files are needed to translate the layout
switching options. The xklavier calls in anaconda will automatically
translate the option strings as long as the translations are present.
In fips mode creation of the protocol 1 key causes it to hang. This
removes the explicit HostKey entries and lets sshd decide which keys to
create when it starts.

It's pretty pointless to copy data from /run/log/journal to
/var/log/journal, since both of those are in-memory filesystems.
This should somewhat reduce RAM use during installation.
Resolves this error on s390x:

Looking for extra fedup-dracut packages...

dracut tries to build hostonly initrd by default without the nohostonly
package/config; this results in a bunch of error messages about missing
files in proc and sys, and then the resulting initrd doesn't work 'cuz
it doesn't have any drivers for anything.
Make kernel args the same in every config.
Put 'quiet' at the end of the line - it's usually the first thing a user removes when debugging.
Fill missing product versions in.
Distinguish between 'install' (installation media) and 'start' (live media).
The list of ARM platforms was represented as a static list to be
installed in .treeinfo for Beaker support, but as ARM moves to use
the multiplatform kernel the platform specific kernel images will
no longer be needed. This process is beginning in F18 (3.7 kernel)
with HighBank being the first to use the baseline kernel. Due to
this change, there will be no 'highbank' platform images, but Beaker
tries to import all platforms listed in .treeinfo. To avoid errors,
we should dynamically create the list of ARM plaforms, including
only those that are actually provided.
