Their passwords are both `fvbe`. - -== fwsetup - -=== What is modified on the host system? - -.Modified File Paths -* /var/log/fwsetup.log -* /var/log/fwsetup-valgrind.log -* /dev/* (depends on what the installer is told to do) -* /mnt/install -* /mnt/iso - -Host's keyboard layouts are also modified if we are running from FVBE and in an environment -where we can actually do this. - -=== Things you need to know. - -The design of our installer assumes that you know what you are doing in general, and serves -mainly to make the installation for experienced users easier. Below is a list of some of the -assumptions we make about your knowledge as a user. The list will never be complete, but -should serve as a reference if the installer doesn't behave as you expect. Some of these things -are included as basic sanity checks, but not all of them are because it's a normal and expected -limitation. - -.Knowledge Assumptions -* A BIOS partition is needed to use GRUB in BIOS mode on GPT tables and it needs to be at least 1 MiB in size. -* The first partition needs to start at an offset of at least 1 MiB to use GRUB in BIOS mode on DOS tables. -* At least one of your physical drives must have a partition table. -* You need at least one valid device to act as your root partition. -* At least 2 RAID partitions are needed in order to create a RAID device. -* RAID devices can only be created from RAID partitions. -* The partitions used in a RAID device should be on different physical drives. -* Swap can only be created on swap partitions. -* Filesystems can only be created on RAID devices or data partitions. -* Filesystems can only be mounted at root directories. -* At least one filesystem must be mounted as '/'. -* An active and reliable internet connection is required for network installations to work. -* At least the base package group will be installed. - - -=== Locale and Layout Modules - -These modules are used to set the language, region localization, and keyboard layout that -will be used throughout the rest of the installer. It is also used by the installation -once the installer is finished. - -=== Partition Module - -Our partitioner provides a simple means of modifying partition tables. -Below is a list of what you can do with our partitioner. - -.Partitioner Features -* Create DOS or GPT tables. -* Create partitions at the end of the table. -* Delete partitions from the end of the table. -* Change a partition's type or purpose. -* Change a partition's name (GPT Only). -* Change a partition's active status. - -If you need something more advanced, then you should use one of the programs -from the list below before starting the installer. - -.Advanced Partitioners -* gdisk -* fdisk -* parted - -When doing this, select `Next` from our partitioner UI without modifying -any of the tables from the UI. Our partitioner will just skip to the next -module, using your existing partition tables. - -=== Format Module - -Our formatter is used to format the filesystems that will be used on your -new installation. If you choose to setup swap, they will be activated before -the installation commences. If you choose to use `noformat`, then the existing -filesystem will be reused. This is only advised if you know what you are doing. - -=== Install Module - -If you are installing from FVBE, then your installation will be limited to -whatever package groups were provided with the ISO you downloaded and no -packages will be downloaded. If the ISO did not come with any packages then -all major package groups are available for download. - -If you are installing from an existing installation, then the installer will -use your existing package cache. It will download a new database, thus a -network connection is required even if your cache is complete. - -=== Postconfig Module - -This module will prompt you for various configuration details it requires from -you. It should not require any further details here. +The two special users are `root` and `guest`.
