The goal here is to do the minimum needed to get the images setup for
use so they can have more complex customizations applied later.
I think this list is a pretty good minimal set of features without going
full kickstart.
This is based on the VHD compose type, with the following differences:
* Use the vhdx format instead of vhd
* No WALinuxAgent
* Install hyperv-daemons
The hyperv-daemons are activated through udev rules, so there is no need
to add them to the services line.
Change the docs-in-docker target to generate the docs for the NEXT
release, not the current one. Also pass in uid/gid so that the new files
can be set to the correct ownership instead of root.
Modify docs/conf.py to bump the version of the docs if
LORAX_VERSION=next is set in the environment.
Sometimes it is necessary to modify the kernel command-line of the
image, this adds support for a [customizations.kernel] section to the
blueprint:
[customizations.kernel]
append = "nosmt=force"
This will be appended to the kickstart's bootloader --append argument.
Includes tests for modifying the bootloader line, the kickstart
template, and examining the final-kickstart.ks created for a compose.
This adds support, documentation, and testing for a [[repos.git]]
blueprint section that can be used to install files from a git
repository. It will create an rpm that will be added to the build,
and included in the metadata that can be downloaded. This allows you to
accurately keep track of the source of configuration files and extra
metadata that is added to the build.
The source repo and reference will be listed in the rpm's summary making
it easy to discover on the installed system.
Anaconda, Lorax, lorax-composer, and livemedia-creator can all now run
with SELinux in Enforcing mode. It does not need to be disabled and if
there are denials they should be reported as a bug.
Log the current state of SELinux when starting, update the
documentation.
If we leave the root account w/o a password people will use it that way,
leading to insecure images. Also if we use a default password. So lock
the root account in the templates.
Users will need to do one of these things:
1. Use [[customizations.user]] in their blueprint to configure root or
another user.
2. Use [[customizations.sshkey]] to set a key for root
2. Install a package that configures a user at install time
3. Install a package that sets up a user at boot time (eg. cloud-init)
This also drops the auth line from the kickstart templates, allowing it
to use the default password algoritm instead of md5.
Resolves: rhbz#1626122
This differs from lmc's --make-ami in that creates a full disk image instead of
an fsimage. Create a raw disk image with a / and /boot partitions, and enable
sshd, chronyd, and cockpit by default.
This makes it easier to generate new documentation for
http://weldr.io/lorax/
It requires having a current welder/lorax-composer:latest image (created with
the test-in-docker target), then run docs-in-docker to rerun sphinx with
the docs/html directory mounted from the container.
We had only been indirectly pulling in GConf, and anyways
nothing was listening to these keys.
<kalev> I still think it's a fallout from 27a90d973f
Really in general, if we wanted to make changes like this
it'd probably be a lot simpler to do them on boot or so.
