- Add FWS branding details for Anaconda installer (ANACONDA_PRODUCT* exports via .xinitrc)
- Enhance splash screen description with real-time anaconda activity monitoring and auto-diagnostic
- Document memory requirements (4 GB recommended, 2 GB minimum with zram swap)
- Clarify boot menu entries and recovery accessibility from live, GRUB, and installed system
- Add fws-recovery as GTK application with bash engine and console fallback
- Document zram swap configuration for both live and installed system
- Detail recovery system integration: GRUB entry, systemd target, polkit policy, and desktop launcher
- Update syslinux splash and DEFAULT entry documentation
- Expand merge rule warning with syslinux-linux.cfg example and BIOS boot status
- Enhance troubleshooting section with detailed recovery procedures and known issues resolutions
- Add information about splash watchdog, RAM warnings, and diagnostic auto-generation
Expand the ISO branding documentation to include a detailed warning about the build process where baseline configs overwrite releng configs. Add a list of critical files that must be kept in sync between both profiles (profiledef.sh, packages.x86_64, pacman.conf, efiboot/loader/entries/01-archiso-linux.conf, syslinux/syslinux.cfg) and include a verification command to detect file divergences. This prevents silent data loss from config mismatches during the build.
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
- Add xterm to packages for installer debugging
All changes maintain GPL-3.0-or-later compliance and improve GPL offer transparency.
Add automatic detection and relaunching of build scripts in an Arch Linux container via podman when running on non-Arch distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, etc.).
Key changes:
- Implement host_is_arch() function to detect if running on Arch Linux by checking both pacman availability and /etc/os-release
- When non-Arch host is detected, scripts automatically pull docker.io/library/archlinux:latest and relaunch themselves in rootful podman container with --privileged
- Mount repository at same absolute path inside container so WORK_DIR and out/ directories work transparently
- Set up persistent pacman cache volume (fws-pacman-cache) between runs
- Auto-chown output files back to host user after build completes
- Update pacman config to disable landlock sandbox in containers (similar to WSL workaround)
- Run full pacman -Syu upgrade in container before installing archiso to avoid partial upgrade issues
- Add comprehensive documentation in README about Fedora/non-Arch setup
- Update .gitignore to exclude pkgbuilds/ directory
- Add environnement.md documentation file
