2026-08-03feat: kiwi descriptions adaptation for surface pro 12"Gravatar Saya Andy
2026-03-16components/boot: Explicitly filter out debug kernelsGravatar Neal Gompa
The Fedora Respins SIG are seeing debug kernels getting installed, and despite the inability to reproduce this, it's fairly straightforward to prevent.
2026-02-16liveinstall: Use kernel-uki-dtbloader kernel on aarch64Gravatar Hans de Goede
For aarch64 liveinstall images we want to replace the kernel-core package with kernel-uki-dtbloader for: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Automatic_DTB_selection_for_aarch64_EFI_systems This is implemented by: 1. Adding a new BootCoreLive profile which is the same as the BootCore profile and re-uses most of the description. Rreplacing the kernel-core package with kernel-uki-dtbloader on aarch64. 2. Switch the LiveInstall from the BootCore profile to the BootCoreLive profile. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <johannes.goede@oss.qualcomm.com>
2025-11-29Revert "Drop shim-signed-ia32 packages"Gravatar Neal Gompa
This is once again present in Fedora, so ship it again. This reverts commit 01d839d633816b2f9804c64331379d4051a15805.
2025-10-06Raise the size of the boot partition to 2G for Fedora imagesGravatar Neal Gompa
With the increase in content in initramfs, a long-overdue raise of the default size for /boot is warranted. Reference: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/2GbootPartition
2025-09-22components/boot: aarch64: Set 16 MiB starting offset for partitionsGravatar Neal Gompa
This ensures that there's empty space for arm-image-installer to inject firmware blobs into images as part of preparing to install for various single board computers.
2025-08-26Drop shim-signed-ia32 packagesGravatar Adam Williamson
shim-ia32 no longer exists at present. We can talk with pjones about bringing it back, but for now, this is preventing Rawhide composes from working. Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <awilliam@redhat.com>
2025-07-10components/boot: Add ia32 EFI components for x86_64 imagesGravatar Neal Gompa
This restores support for booting on 64-bit x86 systems that use 32-bit EFI platforms. Reference: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/32BitUefiSupport
2025-04-29grub2: Enable `bls` for all non-live imagesGravatar Janne Grunau
This became necessary with 10.0.13 / after merging https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/pull/2535 but doesn't seem to noticeable effects besides miisin "GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true" in /etc/default/grub.
2025-04-27grub2: Use `menu_auto_hide=1` to match anacondaGravatar Janne Grunau
menu_auto_hide=1 is required for the boot_success provided by Fedora's grub2 package. This will fall back to the previous kernel and show the usually hidden grub menu when booting fails. This makes it unnecessary to override the timeout_style and using a reduced timeout of 1 second for disk images.
2025-02-20components/boot, teams/server: Add partitioning hack for the Raspberry Pi 3Gravatar Neal Gompa
The Raspberry Pi 3 does not recognize a FAT filesystem marked with the 0xef type, so until we drop support for this device, hack the partition manually to use a legacy FAT filesystem partition type.
2025-02-20components, teams/server: Use a common profile for hardware supportGravatar Neal Gompa
It is hard to ensure that hardware support packages are pulled in universally when it's splintered across different variant profiles. To fix this and ensure Server benefits from this, unify everything into a common profile and make everything require it.
2025-02-07Initial riscv64 supportGravatar David Abdurachmanov
Most of the changes are self-explanatory and just follow what's already happening for existing architectures. Two things are worth pointing out: * we need to use shim-unsigned instead of shim-signed because riscv64 is not fully integrated into Fedora yet and so we can't do Secure Boot signing for the time being; * we use ext4 as bootfilesystem since in most cases the underlying firmware is going to be U-Boot, which needs to be able to load the board's DTB from /boot and doesn't support XFS.

2024-12-13components: Introduce a BaseCommon profileGravatar Neal Gompa
This is where the lowest level common denominator configuration goes for most images go.
2024-11-26components/boot: Split out BootDiskCore aarch64 profile to force MBRGravatar Neal Gompa
Many of the older supported AArch64 systems (particularly single board computers) require a legacy MBR (Master Boot Record) type partitioning to successfully boot.
2024-09-04components/boot: Add full kernel and btrfs stack to BootDiskCoreGravatar Neal Gompa
The boot environment for non-cloud disk images was incomplete, leading to images not bootable on real hardware. This change adds the missing packages to fix that.
2024-08-30Do not use 4096 blocksizeGravatar Troy Dawson
4096 blocksize is required for Macs, and some newer machines can see it, but many other machines are not able to use the 4096 blocksize. Signed-off-by: Troy Dawson <tdawson@redhat.com>
2024-07-24components/boot: Add common configuration for disk imagesGravatar Neal Gompa
This introduces a core disk configuration profile "BootDiskCore" that can be used for creating non-cloud bootable disks.
2024-03-11Add s390x variant for Cloud-Base-GenericGravatar Neal Gompa
This allows building cloud images for Z systems.
2024-03-04components/boot: Force grubby at bootstrap phaseGravatar Neal Gompa
If no preference is expressed, sdubby will be selected instead of grubby, which breaks image builds. Thus, install grubby early to avoid this issue.
2024-02-24Add ppc64le variant for Cloud-Base-GenericGravatar Neal Gompa
This allows building cloud images for POWER systems.
2024-02-22components/boot: Drop duplicate profiles sectionGravatar Neal Gompa
Multiple profiles can be defined in a profiles section.
2024-01-25platforms/cloud: add Cloud-Base-UEFI-UKI profileGravatar Gerd Hoffmann
This is a variation of Cloud-Base-Generic which boots using UKIs. This also adds uki-editbootconfig.sh script which makes the image bootable via "UEFI firmware -> shim.efi -> UKI.efi". Some background information: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Unified_Kernel_Support_Phase_2 Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>
2023-12-19components/boot: Explicitly select grubbyGravatar Neal Gompa
This avoids issues caused by the existence of grubby and sdubby.
