* installer: final: Introduce call-with-mnt-container.Mathieu Othacehe2020-09-10
| | | | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (call-with-mnt-container): New procedure, (install-system): use it instead of call-with-container, to make sure that the container is not jailed.
* installer: Run the installation inside a container.Mathieu Othacehe2020-09-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the underlying install support from being umounted. See: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html. To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container, and run the installation from within that container. * gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure. * gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that guix-daemon enters the given PID MNT namespace by using fork+exec-command/container procedure. * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove it, (install-system): run the installation from within a container. * gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Remove the display hack.
* installer: final: Remove restart-service procedure.Mathieu Othacehe2020-06-16
| | | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove "restart-service" that is now provided by (gnu services herd).
* install: final: Add some logging.Mathieu Othacehe2020-06-13
| | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Add some logging.
* installer: final: Dump "guix system init" command output when testing.Mathieu Othacehe2020-06-09
| | | | | | | | When debugging the installation tests, it can be very handy to be able to read "guix system init" command output. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Dump installation command output to the console when running the installation tests.
* installer: final: Remove left-over pk call.Mathieu Othacehe2020-06-09
| | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): Remove pk call.
* installer: final: Add some extra logging.Mathieu Othacehe2020-06-05
| | | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): Log the killed process name, (umount-cow-store): inform that we are umounting the cow-store.
* installer: Fix cow-store umount issue.Mathieu Othacehe2020-03-23
| | | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): Ignore exception that could be raised if a process disappears between reading its pid and its maps file.
* installer: Fix cow-store umount.Mathieu Othacehe2020-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39712>. The guix-daemon was preventing the cow-store umount, so restart it. Some udevd workers, using cow-store files might also still be around, so have some umount retries. * gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): New procedure, (umount-cow-store): restart guix-daemon and kill all processes started from within the cow-store before trying to umount the store overlay. Also try 5 times to umount the overlay in case it is still busy.
* installer: Honor /tmp/installer-system-init-options.Ludovic Courtès2020-03-05
| | | | | * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Honor "/tmp/installer-system-init-options".
* installer: Run commands without hopping through the shell.Ludovic Courtès2020-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | * gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-shell-command): Rename to... (run-command): Remove call to 'call-with-temporary-output-file' and hop through Bash. Expect COMMAND to be a list of strings rather than a string. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Turn INSTALL-COMMAND into a list of strings and pass it to 'run-command'. * gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (edit-file): Likewise.
* installer: Remove the cow-store overlay after system installation.Mathieu Othacehe2020-02-12
| | | | | | | | | Fixes <https://issues.guix.info/issue/39217>. Fixes <https://issues.guix.info/issue/38447>. * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): New procedure ..., (install-system): ... used here, to remove the store overlay so that the target device is not seen as busy during further umount calls.
* installer: Pass '--fallback' to 'guix system init'.Ludovic Courtès2019-12-29
| | | | | | | | Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/38608>. Reported by Nathan Dehnel <ncdehnel@gmail.com>. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Pass '--fallback' to 'guix system init'.
* installer: User accounts can now have a "real name."Ludovic Courtès2019-04-28
| | | | | | | | * gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page): Add #:real-name. Add a label and entry for the real name and initialize the 'real-name' field of the <user> record. * gnu/installer/final.scm (create-user-database): Set the 'comment' field of the <user-account> record.
* installer: Take 'guix system init' exit code into account.Ludovic Courtès2019-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | This allows the installer to distinguish success from failure, and also ensures the shell that runs 'guix system init' exits upon completion. * gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-shell-command)[pause]: New procedure. Add "exec" before COMMAND in the script. Guard 'invoke' call and handle 'invoke-error?'. Add call to 'pause' on completion. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Remove 'false-if-exception'.
* installer: Ask for the root account password.Ludovic Courtès2019-04-25

* installer: Ask for user password and initialize /etc/shadow.Ludovic Courtès2019-04-25
