wic: Create a logical partition only when it is really mandatory

2017-01-11T11:46:51+00:00

Don't worth bother with logical partition on MBR partition type (aka
msdos) if disk image generated by wic should have 4 partitions.

wic: check that filesystem is specified for a rootfs partition

2017-01-11T11:46:41+00:00

We explicitly check for --fstype if no source was provided for a
partition. However, this was not the case for rootfs partitions. Make
sure to raise an error if filesystem was left unspecified when preparing
a rootfs partition image.

wic: make sure that partition size is always an integer in internal processing

2017-01-11T11:46:41+00:00

The size field of Partition class is expected to be an integer and ought
to be set inside prepare_*() method. Make sure that this is always the
case.

systemd-bootdisk.wks: use PARTUUID

2017-01-11T11:46:39+00:00

Root device name in systemd-bootdisk.wks is 'sda'. This can cause
images, produced using this wks to refuse booting if real device
name is not 'sda'. For example, when booting MinnowBoard MAX from
MicroSD card the boot process stucks with this message on the boot
console output: Waiting for root device /dev/sda2...
This happens because real device name of MicroSD card on this device
is mmcblk1.

Used --use-uuid option for root partition. This should make
wic to put partiion UUID instead of device name into kernel command
line.

canned-wks: use GPT partition table

2016-10-11T07:26:09+00:00

According to UEFI specification all EFI platforms must support
GUID Partition Table(GPT) disk layout. Here is a list of advantages
of using GPT disk layout over the legacy MBR partitioning:

 - Logical Block Addresses (LBAs) are 64 bits (rather than 32 bits).
 - Supports many partitions (rather than just four primary partitions).
 - Provides both a primary and backup partition table for redundancy.
 - Uses version number and size fields for future expansion.
 - Uses CRC32 fields for improved data integrity.
 - Defines a GUID for uniquely identifying each partition.
 - Uses a GUID and attributes to define partition content type.
 - Each partition contains a 36 character human readable name.

Used GPT partitioning in all EFI kickstart files.
Tested result images on NUC, MinnowBoard MAX and MinnowBoard Turbot.

systemd-bootdisk.wks: update kernel command line

2016-10-11T07:26:09+00:00

Used ttyS0 console.
Removed usage of ttyPCH0 (FRI2 leftover)
Decreased bootloader timeout to 5 seconds
Removed 'vmalloc=256MB snd-hda-intel.enable_msi=0' as it's not
needed for any of reference BSPs.
