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.

When running lmc with --no-virt yum will use /tmp/ to cache some things.
If the kickstart or repos change between runs this cache can become
stale so remove it when lmc is finished.
Resolves: 1073502
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.

When doing an image install there is no .buildstamp file to pull the
information from so use the cmdline variables (or their defaults) and
pass them to anaconda in the environment.

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.
Resolves: rhbz#1068721
Remove more drivers and remove plymouth and drm dracut modules. Only on
PPC64 initrd, all other arches have the full set of drivers and modules.

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.
Make sure the data is written before we do anything else with the disk
image. This shouldn't be needed, umount should take care of it, but it
also can't hurt.
