- Add fallback GRUB installation for UEFI systems using --removable flag to ensure boot without NVRAM entries
- Fix BIOS disk detection for LVM root partitions by using lsblk with proper filtering instead of pkname
- Enhance debug logging to include %post chroot phase logs (fws-post.log) which indicate bootloader success
- Automatically mount and retrieve installation logs from the installed disk to verify bootloader installation
- Add detailed comments explaining UEFI/BIOS fallback strategies and LVM-aware disk detection
These changes ensure the system can boot even when NVRAM entries are missing or forgotten by firmware, and provide better visibility into bootloader installation success during the debug phase.
Add locale configuration, systemd service for rootfs mounting, and customization script:
- Add locale.gen to generate en_US.UTF-8 locale required by Anaconda
- Add fws-rootfsbase.service to expose squashfs as /run/rootfsbase for Anaconda LiveOS payload detection
- Add customize_airootfs.sh to run locale-gen during image build
- Add python-iso639 0.1.4 PKGBUILD (local package with correct find() API)
- Add python-langtable 0.0.71 PKGBUILD (local package with list_common_languages())
- Remove python-iso639 and python-langtable from AUR packages due to version/API incompatibilities
- Update LOCAL_BUILD_ORDER to include new local packages
Add python-crypt_r PKGBUILD to provide the crypt module removed in Python 3.13 (PEP 594), required by pyanaconda/core/users.py for password hashing.
Add python-legacy-cgi for the cgi module also removed in Python 3.13, required by python-requests-ftp imported by pyanaconda/core/util.py.
Add ostree to provide the OSTree-1.0 GI namespace required by pyanaconda/rescue.py for the rpm_ostree payload.
Add libblockdev LVM CLI mode configuration to avoid DBus dependency issues with lvmdbusd unavailable in Arch.
Update setup-aur.sh to include python-crypt_r in the local build order before python-meh.
Add Anaconda installer integration to FWS live environment:
- Implement Anaconda launcher in .xinitrc with comprehensive error logging and debugging support
- Add anaconda and anaconda-widgets packages to baseline and releng ISO configs
- Fix anaconda-widgets PKGBUILD: replace gladeui with glib2-devel, disable Glade module
- Update anaconda PKGBUILD with improved dependencies and build configuration
- Add python-blivet PKGBUILD with detailed dependency documentation
Enhance documentation and branding:
- Expand AUTHORS.rst to clarify FWS vs archiso authorship and licensing
- Update CONTRIBUTING.rst with inbound=outbound licensing policy and DCO requirements
- Extend README.md with comprehensive legal basis table and licensing checklist
- Remove Arch Linux references from MOTD and update to FWS GitHub project page
- Fix fastfetch.sh to avoid read-only variable conflict in zsh
