Some OS deployment mechanism may wish to convey the identity information more loosely. For those, it's convenient if the files are loose instead
of needing extraction from a VFAT image.
Provide a totally 'clortho' and 'copernicus' free behavior.
This allows some flows to skip the cpio addons to go straight to python.
Some scenarios demand the utilities (initramfs) and others are more awkward with the utilities,
so we enable both.
Recognize BFB embedded OS as a potential osdeploy target.
This is toward the end of identifying the appropriate 'addons.cpio' for setting up for a bf.cfg driven bfb install.
For now, it is disabled until companion os category exists.
Apart frem the gc_thresh indirect check, perform other checks.
For now, just highlight that tcp_sack being disabled can really
mess with BMC connections. Since the management node may have high speed and the BMC may be behind a 100MBit link, SACK
is needed to overcome the massive loss and
induce TCP to rate limit appropriately.
Some platforms can have a very slow category,
like disks. Give CLI a way to ask for the desired
categories and a chance to optimize away the uninteresting.
Samba by default needs executable bit on files for them to be executable by windows.
Only give executable bits to .exe files that are PE32, mitigating the chance the executable bit could mean anything for Linux.
It could still mean something with binfmt misc hooks, but that shouldn't be done much.
Add missing pre.d directory to let user know they can use such scripts
Preserve console directievs from kernelargs into installed system
Retry umount during image2disk, if processes have the filesystem busy.
Fix DNS behavior during post phase of installtodisk
Invoke confignet properly during firstboot to set up additional interfaces.
Have sshd run during the install from '/sysroot', for convenience
Fix some cosmetic error output for setupssh
If an XCC is booting, it may appear before it's ready to use redfish to manage user accounts. Handle this by delaying the discovery until
the service is ready.
