2026-01-21installer: kernel: Accept empty list as kernel.Rutherther
On architectures other than x86_64, the kernel page is not shown. That means the kernel will be an empty list. This leads to an exception during installation. Followup of 139a69b60201769ded53667872ca8dbad8f6e216, part of #5515. * gnu/installer/kernel.scm (kernel->configuration): Accept empty kernel. Change-Id: I7891f189ecc8d557aa9bb900a6633a570e46a3b6
2026-01-14installer: Add Hurd x86_64 as an option.Janneke Nieuwenhuizen
* gnu/installer/newt/kernel.scm (run-kernel-page): Rename "Hurd" to "Hurd 32-bit (experimental)". On 64-bit, also offer "Hurd 64-bit (highly experimental!)", and make these strings translatable. Make "Linux Libre" the first option. Add a line break after "When in doubt...". Upon re-entrry, use pre-selected kernel as the default. Make sure to always [re]set %current-target-system, as this page may be revisited and another kernel choice selected. * gnu/installer/kernel.scm (kernel->configuration): Update accordingly. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Also cater for the 64-bit Hurd by simply adding --target=(%current-target-system).

2024-11-11installer: Add "Kernel" page to select the Hurd.Janneke Nieuwenhuizen
This adds a "Kernel" page to the installer with the option to (cross-) install the Hurd, if applicable (only available on x86 machines for now). * gnu/installer/newt.scm (kernel-page): New procedure. (newt-installer)[kernel-page]: New field. * gnu/installer/kernel.scm, gnu/installer/newt/kernel.scm: New files. * gnu/local.mk (INSTALLER_MODULES): Add them. * gnu/installer.scm (installer-steps): Use them to select kernel if applicable. * gnu/installer/newt/partition.scm (run-label-page): Default to "msdos" when instaling the Hurd. (run-fs-type-page): Add ext2 for the hurd. (run-partitioning-page-partition): Remove `entire-encrypted' option when installing the Hurd. * gnu/installer/services.scm (system-services->configuration): Cater for the Hurd with %base-services/hurd, and with %base-packages/hurd that must always be set. (%system-services): Change to procedure. When installing the the Hurd, do not recommend `ntp-service-type' and USE `openssh-sans-x' package for `openssh-service-type'. (system-service-none): New variable. * gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-network-management-page): Include it when installing the Hurd. (run-desktop-environments-cbt-page): When installing the Hurd, recommend to not select any desktop enviroment.

(user-fs-type-name, user-fs-type->mount-type, partition-filesystem-user-type, format-user-partitions): Support `ext2'. (<user-partition> partition->user-partition): Use `ext2' when installing the Hurd. (auto-partition!): Likewise. No swap partition when installing the Hurd. * gnu/installer/final.scm (install-system): Cater for cross installation of the Hurd. (bootloader-configuration): Use `grub-minimal-bootloader' when installing the Hurd. (user-partition-missing-modules): Cater for empty user-partitions. (initrd-configuration, user-partitions->configuration): Cater for the Hurd. * gnu/installer/steps.scm (format-configuration, configuration->file): Cater for the Hurd. * gnu/system/hurd.scm (%desktop-services/hurd): New variable. * gnu/installer/tests.scm (choose-kernel): New procedure. * gnu/tests/install.scm (gui-test-program): Use it.
