| Notes:
| |
| * lots of RAID changes, ref 4d41d2cbd4342e1f1e8e853531526954da3b6829
| |
| * +/- keys are keyboard shortcuts on custom partition spoke
| |
|
| |
| * Low memory installations work better using methods where squashfs.img doesn't need to be kept in memory, ie nfs,live image.
| |
| * Document changes in Kickstart syntax
| |
| * Document new boot options:
| |
| - leavebootorder : doesn't change boot order (applicable to POWER, UEFI)
| |
| - extlinux: gives extlinux bootloader, assumes you know why you're asking for it.
| |
| - memcheck: does an initial memory count to see if there's enough for the chosen method. this is an approximation; the system might need more depending on circumstances.
| |
| - nomemcheck: doesn't check for adequate memory. Also does not prevent inadequate memory from failing.
| |
| * Apparently Anaconda now supports swap on zRAM - ask vpodzime
| |
| zRAM swap for Anaconda: zram can be turned on and off with the inst.zram argument. It will be used
| |
| automatically for systems with <2GB, and not used for systems with >2GB.
| |
|
| |
| zRAM is a standard block device like tmpfs with one nice difference -- its
| |
| content is compressed. One clever usage of such device is using it as a swap
| |
| device which effectively means one can have compressed RAM. Some experiments
| |
| show that by using zRAM as a swap device in the installation process anaconda
| |
| can install to machines with lower amount of RAM (succeeded with 320 MB) and
| |
| installations on low-RAM systems (< 1 GB) run faster due to usage of zRAM swap
| |
| instead/together with the standard swap we create and use for package
| |
| installation.
| |
|
| |
| Specific limits, numbers and way of implementation may be changed in the future,
| |
| but this commit introduces the basic idea and straightforward approach.
| |
| --vpodzimek
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| * geolocation for initial tz, lang configuration
| |
|
| |
| * use the experimental `dnf` backend instead of yum with the "dnf" command line argument
