Hi,
I'm trying to create an updates.img with the changes since
anaconda-11.4.0.36-1 (what currently ships in rawhide images).
I git cloned the repo and I used diff/diffstat to see which files have
changed:
# git diff anaconda-11.4.0.36-1 | diffstat
isys/isys.c | 4 -
iw/language_gui.py | 11 ++--
iw/timezone_gui.py | 2
scripts/buildinstall | 37 +++++---------
scripts/buildinstall.functions | 4 -
scripts/makestamp.py | 19 -------
scripts/mk-images | 94 ++++++++++++++++++++++++------------
scripts/upd-instroot | 105 +++++++++++++++++++----------------------
textw/network_text.py | 2
textw/timezone_text.py | 2
yuminstall.py | 17 ++++++
11 files changed, 156 insertions(+), 141 deletions(-)
Now I think the scripts are not needed at anaconda runtime, but what
about isys.c? What would an anaconda novice's steps be to get these on
his updates.img?
isys.c and the likes go into the stage2.img (squashfs) To get a new isys.c into the installation you would have to rebuild anaconda, put isys.so into new stage2.img, put stage2.img image in tree, install. FYI, updates.img is for .py file, you can also put stuff there that you want to have at install time (a text file or whatever).
You can also wait until rawhide builds successfully. There is a build every night AFAIK, the problem is that its not always sane.
I know how to create the actual updates.img, I'm just not sure what
needs to get in there, *.py files flattened? Same folder hierarchy as
on git? Do I need to rebuild the isys module? Should I do that in a F9
chroot or is F8 OK, too?
I don't know what would happen if you rebuild against f8, wouldnt expect much success. I would suggest rawhide.
Thanks!
