...So, in the course of working on the split-image support I ended up refactoring the way that lorax is handling the arch-specific parts of image creation (basically, the stuff in images.py). The work is going on in the "treebuilder" branch (Warning: I'll probably rebase it repeatedly, so expect to have to git pull -f if you clone it), and the interesting bit is this: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=lorax.git;a=commit;h=1cbe33d2d1ea5d0b1f6edf2376b73b6cfa4e4c06 Basically, since we're using mako templates for making the runtime, why not use them for making the boot images and the tree as well? It's an incomplete, untested work-in-progress.. but it should have approximately the same featureset as current master. I think the templates are a lot easier to follow than the code in images.py. For example, sparc.tmpl: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=lorax.git;a=blob;hb=treebuilder;f=src/pylorax/sparc.tmpl It's definitely a lot less code: 18 files changed, 709 insertions(+), 1680 deletions(-) I should have it producing images early next week, so please withhold judgement on the particulars of the code 'til I have it more complete. But I wanted to give you all some idea what I was working on, and give us a chance to talk about the overall design and such. Let me know what you think! -w _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
