Blarg, I forgot to do git send-email --compose! Anyway... This patch series adds support for creating images that are compressed with squashfs. They're slightly larger than straight cpio images (For F15 images, 95M -> 122M) but they use vastly less RAM and start up much faster. Additionally, they boot using dracut (like the normal system and live images) so we can set up all sorts of crazy pre-boot stuff for debugging etc. That's nice! I've ported this code to F15-era lorax and tested the resulting F15 images; they boot and install just fine, at least on largemem systems. There's some other F15 bug affecting my KVM installs right now, but I'm nearly certain they'd work fine. There's a scratch build of the squashified F15 lorax here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3128565 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
