Mostly copied from the arm64 support, but also copy in the images like
previously for non-efi platforms.
Move the old boot-arm-common code back into boot-armel now it's no
longer common.
We don't need to do much here, just pass on what the d-i build already
set up for us. Previously, we assumed too much knowledge about the
contents of the efi.img we were given. Now simply copy all of it.
(This is only really necessary due to us wanting to merge the efi.img
for multiple architectures. This is likely to get harder with
clashing files... :-/)
Move sourced/shared scripts to boot-*-common
Rearrange common definitions in each boot script to make them more
similar
Add common support for %ARCH% substitutions in DI_WWW_HOME
Fix boot-alpha to use which_deb when looking for aboot
Merge mips* together, using boot-mips-common
we've already got code to copy the d-i images into a handy place for
users. Move it into a common function and reference that for all the
arches affected.
Those symlinks make it easier to build Kali images with debian-cd.
They are pointing to "sid" so that they are automatically updated
when the underlying symlink is updated. It makes senses since Kali
is a rolling distribution based on Debian Testing.
CD creation fails with "disk full", because of rounding errors.
The minimum size of data-allocation is a 'cluster', which is a
power-of-two multiple of sectors.
mkfs.msdos chooses minimum FAT and cluster size for image: FAT12<16G
mkfs.msdos uses block-count where a block is 1024 B, but must be rounded
up to track_size with 32 sectors.
Round up each file to clusters before summing.
A sub-directory entry needs 1 cluster minimum.
Previous changes enabled gzip compressed Linux kernels, but not 100%
sure that it works on all systems. Disable this compression for now.
Switch hppa to use xorriso by default instead of mkisofs. Xorriso
supports kernel command lines to be up to 1023 bytes, better than
mkisofs. mkisofs only supports the older palo version 4 header format
which can hold only 127 characters which might be too small.
