I originally added --add-template to support doing something similar
to pungi, which injects content into the system to be used by default.
However, this causes the content to be part of the squashfs, which
means PXE installations have to download significantly more data that
they may not need (if they actually want to pull the tree data from
the network, which is not an unusual case).
What I actually need is to be able to modify *both* the runtime image
and the arch-specific content. For the runtime, I need to change
/usr/share/anaconda/interactive-defaults.ks to point to the new
content. (Although, potentially we could patch Anaconda itself to
auto-detect an ostree repository configured in disk image, similar to
what it does for yum repositories)
For the arch-specfic image, I want to drop my content into the ISO
root.
So this patch adds --add-arch-template and --add-arch-template-var
in order to do the latter, while preserving the --add-template
to affect the runtime image.
Further, the templates will automatically graft in a directory named
"iso-graft/" from the working directory (if it exists).
(I suggest that external templates create a subdirectory named
"content" to avoid clashes with any future lorax work)
Thus, this will be used by the Atomic Host lorax templates to inject
content/repo, but could be used by e.g. pungi to add content/rpms as
well.
I tried to avoid code deduplication by creating a new template for the
product.img bits and this, but that broke because the parent boot.iso
code needs access to the `${imggraft}` variable. I think a real fix
here would involve turning the product.img, content/, *and* boot.iso
into a new template.

With these templates if a package has installed files in
/usr/share/lorax/product or /usr/share/lorax/updates/ they will be used
to create product.img and/or updates.img which will be included in the
images/ directory of the iso and of the final output tree.
These can be used to customize the installation environment or provide
updates. See README.product for current documentation.

This can be used to remove kernel modules from under

easier than constructing find arguments to select the right things to

--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.
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.

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.

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.

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
file's only content.
