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: services: Disable desktop page on Hurd and 32-bit x86.Rutherther
To prevent confusion, remove possibility to choose the desktop services on both Hurd and 32-bit x86. As the info text suggests, desktop environments are not available on Hurd. As for x86, there some of the services do not build. While it is more idiomatic to fix those services, for the 1.5.0 release, use this workaround to disable the desktop page. This ensures users aren't left building something that will fail. * gnu/installer/newt/services.scm (run-desktop-environments-cbt-page): No longer show special info on Hurd. (run-desktop-environments-cbt-page/maybe): Call run-desktop-environments-cbt-page on architectures that support desktop environments well.

2026-01-14installer: network: Check response code to assess substitute availability.Rutherther
This is to accomodate following situation: - The proxy is up - The substitute server is down When that happens, 5xx is returned from the proxy, typically either Bad Gateway or Gateway Timeout. This implies the substitute server is down. Still, for checking if the user is online, we do not check the response code. If there is a response, even 4xx, 5xx, it still means the user is online. * gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (url-alive?): Add optional argument to to check the response code. (common-urls-alive?): Add the same argument, passing it to url-alive? (check-substitute-availability): Assume offline when non-successful http code returned.

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).

2024-04-03Switch order of the default substitute servers.Christopher Baines
The aim here is to improve the user experience. There's anecdotal evidence that the network performance for bordeaux is better compared to ci at least for some users, and I don't know of any issues with rate limiting or access restriction for bordeaux compared to ci. It also has IPv6 support. Additionally, bordeaux generally had more substitutes than ci, particularly for aarch64-linux and armhf-linux. This change will offer a very slight speedup for those substitutes that only bordeaux has. Bordeaux has been a default substitute server for nearly 3 years now and I think this change is overdue. I'm also hopeful that we'll be able to build on the testing regarding mirrors for bordeaux, and that'll allow potentially improving the hosting setup (through providing more redundancy) and further improving substitute fetching for users who currently have issues with substitute access. * config-daemon.ac: Switch substitute urls order. * doc/guix.texi: Ditto. * etc/guix-install.sh: Ditto. * gnu/installer/newt/network.scm (wait-service-online): Ditto. * guix/store.scm (%default-substitute-urls): Ditto.

2022-11-02installer: Skip the backtrace page on user abort.Mathieu Othacehe
When the user aborts the installation because a core dump is discovered or the installation command failed, displaying the abort backtrace doesn't make much sense. Hide it when the abort condition is &user-abort-error and skip directly to the dump page. * gnu/installer/steps.scm (&user-abort-error): New variable. (user-abort-error?): New procedure. * gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-failed-page): Raise a user-abort-error. * gnu/installer/newt/welcome.scm (run-welcome-page): Ditto. * gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Hide the backtrace page and directly propose to dump the report when the a &user-abort-error is raised.
