Summary and Scope

Issue Type

  • Bugfix Pull Request
  • RFE Pull Request

The primary change for this PR is a new function of the install and write-livecd script that updates the Crucible package with what was included in the Fawkes assets. This allows us to do a few things:

  • We no longer need to always rebuild fawkes images if we have a new crucible version
  • The crucible used in docs (the one from the tar) will consistently be available on the installed hypervisor

There is a gap at the moment for the PXE installed hypervisors, these are waiting on an additional change to auto-fetch the new Crucible (MTL-2300).

This also includes:

  • Enhanced logging for easier debugging
  • Broadcom PCIe support

Prerequisites

  • I have included documentation in my PR (or it is not required).
  • I have added unit tests for my code.

Idempotency

Risks and Mitigations

This does add some prototype code for the USB drive that may or may not work, but shouldn't interfere with anyone's runthrough.

The install and wipe scripts are pretty complicated, and having a full call trace for each run is pretty valuable.
In my testing, I forgot to extract the tarball and thus had no images to load. This caused the script to fail in a confusing manner.

This adds a safeguard to prevent that confusion.
This code could fail, it hasn't been tested.

Attempt to update the crucible RPM in the Fawkes liveCD.
