2020-09-02installer: Run the installation inside a container....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. Mathieu Othacehe
2020-07-26installer: Add NTFS support....This adds support for creating and editing NTFS partitions. It is however not possible yet to create root NTFS partitions, as overlaying on top of a fuse partition does not seem supported. * gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add "ntfs-3g" to the inputs. * gnu/installer/parted.scm (user-fs-type-name, user-fs-type->mount-type, partition-filesystem-user-type, create-ntfs-file-system, format-user-partitions): Add NTFS support. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-fs-type-page): Add NTFS support.

(run-keymap-page): Use it to insert an empty variant. Florian Pelz

2020-01-20installer: Disable F12 hot key....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/38562>. Reported by Brice Waegeneire <brice@waegenei.re>.

2020-01-20installer: Makes sure the installer proceeds after hitting "Edit"....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/39199>. Reported by Jonathan Brielmaier <jonathan.brielmaier@web.de>. * gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (run-file-textbox-page): Move 'loop' to the beginning of the body. Do not call 'loop' from the 'dynamic-wind' exit handler as we would not return the value of the second call to 'loop'. Ludovic Courtès
2020-01-12installer: Add an "Edit" button on the final page....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/36885>. Reported by <lukasbf@tutanota.com>. * gnu/installer/newt/page.scm (edit-file): New procedure.

2019-05-15installer: Mount ESP once only....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/35731>. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partioning-page)[run-page]: Introduce 'initial-partitions' variable. Previously we'd call 'disk-partitions' after 'auto-partition' had done its job of creating new partitions, and thus its result would contain the just-created partitions. Consequently, 'create-special-user-partitions' would return the ESP partition we just created, and thus it would appear twice in the list. Ludovic Courtès
2019-05-14installer: Add fat16....* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-fs-type-page): Add fat16. Danny Milosavljevic

Mathieu Othacehe
2019-05-06installer: Skip network selection dialogs when there is no choice....Previously, for a machine that only has wired networking, and only one such network, we'd have to go through two selection boxes. Now we just skip both. * gnu/installer/newt/ethernet.scm (run-ethernet-page): When 'ethernet-services' returns one element, return it directly without opening a listbox selection. * gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (run-technology-page): Likewise.

2019-05-06installer: Do not sort methods on the partitioning page....* gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-partioning-page): Pass #:sort-listbox-items? #f so that methods always appear in the same order. Ludovic Courtès
2019-05-06installer: Widen user dialog....* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page)[pad-label]: Increase 2nd argument to 25. [entry-width]: Increase to 35. Ludovic Courtès
2019-05-05installer: Fix typo....* gnu/installer/newt/menu.scm (run-menu-page): Add missing space after period. Signed-off-by: Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org> Miguel
2019-05-03installer: Do not sort the guided partition schemes in the selection page....Previously, the "Everything is one partition" entry would come first in English but it would be second in French. This change keeps it the first choice regardless of the language. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-scheme-page): Pass #:sort-listbox-items? to 'run-scheme-page'. Ludovic Courtès
2019-04-29installer: Fix typo in docstring....* gnu/installer/newt/wifi.scm (draw-scanning-page): Fix typo in docstring. Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org> Meiyo Peng

2019-04-28installer: Fix handling of user password mismatches....Previously, if we had a password mismatch, the 'password' field would end up containing a <user> record instead of the actual password. * gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (confirm-password): Make TRY-AGAIN optional and adjust docstring. (run-user-add-page): Move 'confirm-password' call one level higher. Ludovic Courtès
2019-04-28installer: User accounts can now have a "real name."...* gnu/installer/newt/user.scm (run-user-add-page): Add #:real-name. Add a label and entry for the real name and initialize the 'real-name' field of the <user> record. * gnu/installer/final.scm (create-user-database): Set the 'comment' field of the <user-account> record. Ludovic Courtès
2019-04-28installer: Improve layout of the partitioning page....Previously the "listbox" would be unnecessarily high, leaving too little space for the German translation of the text above. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-disk-page): Increase #:info-textbox-width and pass #:listbox-height.
