Unset GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT if / or /boot is in btrfs or f2fs partition. This avoids the error "sparse file not allowed" at boot time. Btrfs and f2fs do not support saving default entry in grub.
- because mount() returns an exit code, and 0 is "success",
the if (!code) was backwards: when mounting succeeded, the
TemporaryMount object thought it failed.
- This leads to temp-mounts being left *all over* the place
from os-prober and fstab-handling.
- See editorial in the code-comment. Still need to test that
chroot(8) doesn't need a full path, otherwise this will
go to /usr/bin/env udevadm to force lookup (redundantly
if not in a chroot)
- !failed() also means "didn't write the file because it already
exists", which is sometimes acceptable -- but not here.
Use the more-strict bool() conversion, which is only when
the file was actually written.
- Unconditionally **not** overwriting the target file isn't an option:
writing hostname, for instance, expects that to be done even
if `/etc/hostname` already exists on the target filesystem.
- Make tests more resilient: do them in a temp-dir, and clean it
up after successful tests. This was prompted by tests failing
because of things hanging around in /tmp.
- Follow original patch from Gabriel Craciunescu: just drop
the *bufsize* parameter and stick to binary reads.
Text mode was associated in my testing with multiple hangs,
which didn't show up during binary-reads.
- By the time the GS is actually written, new (for partition state)
is always false. So "new" is the wrong thing to track. It should
have had a better name anyway,
- We store custom properties on the partition objects to indicate
what happens to them; use those properties (instead of state,
as done originally), call it "claimed" to indicate that the partition
is part of this installation.
For now, only new (as in, formatted, created-by-us) partitions are
claimed.
- The effect here is that only "new" swap will be added to the system,
so in erase-disk installations, or manual partitioning.
- Install-alongside and replace will now **not** claim the swap already
on the disk; I think we'll need another UI knob for that one.
FIXES#1316
- `createPartitionList()` is called for the summary widget (via
`prettyDescription()`), and from `exec()`. Only the latter
actually *writes* to Global Storage, so it's misleading to
think that the pretty-printed version ends up in GS.
- This makes the "new" key useless, since by the time `exec()` is called
the partitoons are no longer new.
- These tests don't actually test anything in this specific module,
they do test CalamaresUtils::System.
- Wrangling System and JobQueue and GlobalStorage instances is fraught
Use regular translation machinery to support and help out translations
from the config files. This reduces the need to do all the translation
in those files -- some of it can be shared with the regular TX workflow.
