c875a72020 livemedia-creator: close the socket when done
In some cases the socket may not be closed, so make sure it is to
prevent hangs when shutting down the virt.

41b58f8f6c livemedia-creator: Allow the boot.iso to be shared
This allows the boot.iso to be used by multiple instances of lmc (or
virt-install if they also set --disk shareable=on)

fd4afe2530 livemedia-creator: drop console=ttyS0
This no longer seems to be needed, and causes images created without
passing --vnc vnc to start up with a serial console. If you need a
serial console you can pass it using --kernel-args

380a6ddd6d livemedia-creator: add more errors
Add check for running traceback script and when the retry fails.

This also indicates something went wrong with the installation, exit
when they are seen in the logs.

Also drop looking for WARNING in the regex errors, they will be errors
after the syslog level name remap patch goes into anaconda.

b7be1d97fe Allow doing non-URL installs if using virt.
In this case, we don't need to pass a repo parameter to anaconda.  It's running
in a VM and knows how to deal with a kickstart file.

c789f20b66 Don't emit media labels with spaces in them.
Spaces cause various bugs like #923374 and #855849 , and it would be
better if we just didn't use them.

Note that there's a corresponding pungi change to go with this.

d79222e8ea livemedia-creator: Fail when there are missing packages
Watch the logs for  WARNING packaging: .* requires .* which indicates
that there are missing packages and it is sitting at a prompt waiting
for user input.

66359415be Add --add-template{,-var}
What I need is to make something like the traditional DVD which also
includes packages.  At present this is apparently handled by the
entirely separate pungi tool.

At the moment for me, it's the least bad option to modify lorax to
inject data from an external source than to create a new tool, or
attempt to also modify pungi to do this.

This would also allow pungi's DVD creation to eventually be a set of
external templates for Lorax.

b3e80b7564 livemedia-creator: Copy fsimage if hardlink fails
If the user supplies a fsimage to use for the iso it may not be on the
same filesystem as the working directory. Try to hardlink first, but if
that fails copy the image.

9e15705bb9 Clean up download and install output
Commit d2ae92b4b3 patched up the download counter and progress
display. Yum no longer provides the needed information so now we get the
total number of packages from the start of the transaction.

This also turns off colors when stdout is not a tty, and only prints the
install progress once so that piping to a logfile isn't flooded with
useless characters.

d04a99e8f4 livemedia-creator: Add support for making tarfiles
This adds the --make-tar option which will produce a xz compressed tar
of the root filesystem. This works with either virt-install or no-virt
modes. Use --image-name to set the output filename.

--compression is used to set the compression type to use, which defaults
to xz. Supported types are xz, lzma, gzip and bzip2.

--compress-arg is used to pass arguments to the compression utility.

19d8304070 livemedia-creator: Make --make-fsimage work with virt-install
--make-fsimage was only working with --no-virt, this re-structures
things so that virt-install partitioned disk images can be converted to
a fsimage. --make-ami was actually already doing this, so change it to
use --make-fsimage and set the default image name to "ami-root.img" with
a label of "AMI".

This also adds the ability to set the fs label on iso fsimage and
fsimages created with --make-fsimage and --make-ami by passing
--fs-label, but note that bootable iso's expect the Anaconda label.

99f2ab9137 move image-minimizer to lorax (#1082642)

modifications to images.

Also adds an example kickstart.

This obsoletes the old appliance-tools-minimizer and includes a Provide
