Subpackages contain code for use in provisioning (also referred to as manufacture) and factory restore (aka recovery) as well as services which run in the image. Three main flavors of kernel can be built. The kernel code remains the same, with the initramfs changing. The flavors are: provisioning: pxebooted, used to image large numbers of servers with full functionality. Requires at least two physical storage devices within the unit - a small recovery device containing a copy of the image, and a (generally much larger) primary device onto which the image is decompressed. Recovery device could be a usb key, ssd, etc. Depends upon additional infrastructure - dhcp and tftp config for pxe, ipxe and boot menu(s), http file server, logging server, and some mechanism to store (and optionally, generate) passwords. recipe: a "downloadable installer" downloaded by a customer for installation onto hardware they source, for use in regions where shipping from the US is painful. combines the QA functionality of provisioning with some functionality of factory restore. Imaged unit _lacks_ factory restore functionality on its own as that requires the secondary storage. norm: after recipe or provisioning, this is the kernel that is always used. Includes factory restore functionality, though this only functions if the unit was provisioned (as opposed to recipe). For provisioned units, factory restore: will be triggered if the primary device's filesystem (or a flag file therein) is missing, or may be triggered on demand by the user. In all other cases, the root volume is located and mounted, the initramfs is cleaned up, and systemd is started. Use `mage` to build these targets.
