2022-01-14installer: Install the locale before mounting the cow-store.Mathieu Othacehe
Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/52831>. Make sure to install the en_US.utf8 fallback locale if the selected locale is not supported. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-locale): New procedure. (install-system): Call it.
2022-01-14installer: Do not set the locale in run-command.Mathieu Othacehe
Installing the locale inside the container, once the cow-store is mounted, causes the process to keep opened locale files that can later prevent the cow-store umount. * gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-command): Remove locale argument. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Adapt it.

2020-09-02installer: Run the installation inside a container.Mathieu Othacehe
When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the underlying install support from being umounted. See: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html. To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container, and run the installation from within that container. * gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure. * gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that guix-daemon enters the given PID MNT namespace by using fork+exec-command/container procedure. * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove it, (install-system): run the installation from within a container. * gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Remove the display hack.
2020-06-16installer: final: Remove restart-service procedure.Mathieu Othacehe

2020-06-09installer: final: Dump "guix system init" command output when testing.Mathieu Othacehe

2020-03-23installer: Fix cow-store umount issue.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): Ignore exception that could be raised if a process disappears between reading its pid and its maps file.
2020-03-05installer: Fix cow-store umount.Mathieu Othacehe
This fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39712>. The guix-daemon was preventing the cow-store umount, so restart it. Some udevd workers, using cow-store files might also still be around, so have some umount retries. * gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): New procedure, (umount-cow-store): restart guix-daemon and kill all processes started from within the cow-store before trying to umount the store overlay. Also try 5 times to umount the overlay in case it is still busy.
2020-03-05installer: Honor /tmp/installer-system-init-options.Ludovic Courtès

Expect COMMAND to be a list of strings rather than a string. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Turn INSTALL-COMMAND into a list of strings and pass it to 'run-command'. * gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (edit-file): Likewise.
2020-02-12installer: Remove the cow-store overlay after system installation.Mathieu Othacehe
Fixes <https://issues.guix.info/issue/39217>. Fixes <https://issues.guix.info/issue/38447>. * gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): New procedure ..., (install-system): ... used here, to remove the store overlay so that the target device is not seen as busy during further umount calls.

2019-04-26installer: Take 'guix system init' exit code into account.Ludovic Courtès
This allows the installer to distinguish success from failure, and also ensures the shell that runs 'guix system init' exits upon completion. * gnu/installer/utils.scm (run-shell-command)[pause]: New procedure. Add "exec" before COMMAND in the script. Guard 'invoke' call and handle 'invoke-error?'. Add call to 'pause' on completion. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Remove 'false-if-exception'.
