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.
2022-01-14installer: Remove an unused procedure.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/installer/final.scm (kill-cow-users): Remove it.
2022-01-14installer: Check if ci.guix.gnu.org can be reached.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add gnutls extension. * gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-service-online): Check if the CI server can be reached.
2022-01-14installer: Ignore small devices.Mathieu Othacehe
Filter the devices that are smaller than 2GiB in the device selection list. * gnu/installer/parted.scm (%min-device-size): New variable. (non-install-devices): Rename it ... (eligible-devices): ... this way. Filter the install device as well as the small devices. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partitioning-page): Adapt it.
2021-12-28installer: Offer 'gpm-service-type' for non-graphical systems.Leo Famulari
* gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add the gpm-service-type.
2021-12-28installer: Recommend 'ntp-service-type' for non-graphical systems.Leo Famulari
We had several bug reports with a root cause of "the clock was incorrect" from users who used the installer to install a non-graphical Guix System. * gnu/installer/services.scm (%system-services): Add the ntp-service-type. * gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-system-administration-cbt-page): New variable. (run-services-page): Use run-system-administration-cbt-page when not installing a desktop. * gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-services): Add and use a choose-misc-service? procedure. * gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests)<services>: Add ntp-service-type.
2021-12-28installer: Offer the CUPS printing service on a dedicated page.Leo Famulari
Currently, the installer page RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE offers to the user all installer services that are not of the types 'desktop', 'network-management', or 'networking'. Concretely, this means that it offers the CUPS printing service, because that is the only service of a different type defined in the installer. In later commits, we will add some services of a new type, and we only want them to be offered when the user is installing a non-graphical system. At least one of these new services (NTP) is part of %DESKTOP-SERVICES. If it was also offered on RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE, and the user had configured a system using %DESKTOP-SERVICES, the user could accidentally add NTP to their services twice, which is an error and would break installation. So, this commit makes the RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE be more specific about what services to offer. This makes it easier to discriminate between desktop and non-desktop installations, in terms of when a given service is offered. * gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (RUN-OTHER-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): Rename to ... (RUN-PRINTING-SERVICES-CBT-PAGE): ... new variable, and select only 'document' services. (RUN-SERVICES-PAGE): Adjust accordingly. * gnu/installer/tests.scm (CHOOSE-SERVICES): Adjust accordingly.

2021-10-21installer: Reorder file system type listbox.Tobias Geerinckx-Rice
Recommending ext4 over btrfs is probably ill-advised nowadays. See the regular bug reports about running out of /gnu/store directory entries, for which the documented fix then breaks booting with GRUB. Instead, just list regular file systems alphabetically. We can bikeshed bcachefs later ;-) Move second-class file systems like NTFS to their own section at the end of the list. * gnu/packages/package-management.scm (run-fs-type-page): Reorder the LISTBOX-ITEMS.

Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/50723>. The keymap xml contains optional shortDescription and description fields. The assoc-ref call on those fields can return false, handle it correctly. * gnu/installer/keymap.scm (xkb-rules->models+layouts): Introduce a new "maybe-empty" helper to deal with optional fields. Use it for shortDescription and description fields.

2020-12-11Revert "services: openssh: Warn about 'password-authentication?' default."Ludovic Courtès
This reverts commit aecd2a13cbd8301d0fdeafcacbf69e12cc3f6138 for two reasons: 1. The warning would fire every time (gnu services ssh) is loaded; 2. There's still no clear consensus on the approach to follow as discussed in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/44808>.
