2024-10-23 | gnu: bootloader: Use symbol as efi-bootloader-chain name....* gnu/bootloader.scm (efi-bootloader-chain): Use symbol as
efi-bootloader-chain name, to allow systems using it to roll-back and
switch-generations again.

2024-01-14 | bootloader: grub: Add support for loading an additional initrd....In order to be able to provide decryption keys for the LUKS device, they need
to be available in the initial ram disk. However they cannot be stored inside
the usual initrd, since it is stored in the store and being a
world-readable (as files in the store are) is not a desired property for a
initrd containing decryption keys. This commit adds an option to load
additional initrd during the boot, one that is not stored inside the store and
therefore can contain secrets.
Since only grub supports encrypted /boot, only grub is modified to use the
extra-initrd. There is no use case for the other bootloaders.
* doc/guix.texi (Bootloader Configuration): Describe the new extra-initrd
field.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader-configuration>): Add extra-initrd field.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (make-grub-configuration): Use the extra-initrd
field.

2022-12-01 | gnu: bootloader: Rework chaining, add grub-efi-netboot-removable-bootloader....This rework allows to use an (efi-bootloader-chain) like this, which is able
to boot over network or local storage, depending on whether the bootloader
target has support for symbolic links:
(operating-system
(bootloader
(bootloader-configuration
(bootloader
(efi-bootloader-chain
grub-efi-netboot-removable-bootloader
#:packages (list my-firmware-package
my-u-boot-package)
#:files (list (plain-file "config.txt"
"kernel=u-boot.bin"))
#:hooks my-special-bootloader-profile-manipulator))
(targets '("/booti/efi"))
…))
…)
* doc/guix.texi (Bootloader Configuration): Describe the new
‘grub-efi-netboot-removable-bootloader’. Mention the file names used and that
the UEFI Boot Manager is not modified. Advise to disable write-access over
TFTP.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (efi-bootloader-profile): Allow a list of packages and
collect everything directly in the profile, avoiding a separate collection
directory. Renamed the profile from "bootloader-profile" to
"efi-bootloader-profile".
[bootloader-collection]: Rename to...
[efi-bootloader-profile-hook]: ... this and remove unused modules. Do not
create the now extraneous collection directory.
(efi-bootloader-chain): Add PACKAGES and DISK-IMAGE-INSTALLER arguments.
Remove handling of the collection directory, now only calling the given
installer procedure.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (make-grub-efi-netboot-installer): New helper.
(make-grub-configuration): New helper based on (grub-configuration-file). Add
a GRUB argument, fix indentation, remove previous code retrieving GRUB from
CONFIG.
(grub-configuration-file): Make use of make-grub-configuration.
(grub-efi-configuration-file): New procedure.
(grub-cfg): New variable to replace "/boot/grub/grub.cfg".
(install-grub-efi-netboot): Remove, splitting logic to...
(make-grub-efi-netboot-installer): ... this new helper procedure, as well as
to make-grub-efi-netboot, added below.
(grub-bootloader): Adjust to use the GRUB-CFG.
(grub-efi-bootloader): Likewise. Removed inheritance and declare all fields
explicitly.
(make-grub-efi-netboot-bootloader): New procedure.
(grub-efi-netboot-bootloader): Use it.
(grub-efi-netboot-removable-bootloader): New variable.
* gnu/packages/bootloaders.scm (make-grub-efi-netboot): New procedure.
