/Fedora/base/stage2.img
(on Installation Disc 1) plus the size of the files in /var/lib/rpm
on the installed system.

kernel/initrd
gets stage1
, and stage1
gets stage2
.
stage2
must be specified. In other words: pass repo=
or stage2=
(or inst.repo=
or inst.stage2=
, as is now preferred), pointing to a repository. If the stage2
image is on one server but then the installation packages are on some other server, stage2=
must be used: repo=
should only be used if the single server contains everything needed for the install (both the stage2
image and all the packages to install). Note that stage2=
still expects to see a 'repository' tree, you cannot just pass the path direct to a squashfs.img
file (which is how stage2=
worked when it previously existed in F15 and earlier).
label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.imgis no longer valid. It is necessary to specify
repo
:
label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img repo=dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/17/x86_64/os/or
stage2
:
label linux kernel vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.img stage2=my.internal.server/17/x86_64/os/(or any other valid mirror).
/etc/security/pwquality.conf
configuration file.
pwquality.h
file provided by the libpwquality-devel package. A python wrapper, python-pwquality, is also provided.
deny_ptrace
, has been added. It is recommended that users who do not plan to debug applications on their machine turn this boolean on. The boolean prevents rogue processes from being able to read the memory of, or otherwise attack, other processes using debugging tools including ptrace and gdb.
deny_ptrace
boolean, execute the following command as root:
# setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
deny_ptrace
boolean temporarily, execute the following command as root:
# setsebool deny_ptrace 0
/tmp
directory. Privileged services using /tmp
and /var/tmp
have previously been found to be open to being interfered with by unprivileged users, potentially leading to privilege escalation. Using private /tmp
directories for services prevents this style of exploit.
[Service] PrivateTmp=true
kswitch
command is added to switch between credential caches. Additional cache support has been added to other commands. Credential choice can be controlled with the file $HOME/.k5identity
.
information_schema.referential_constraints
view, or if you have columns of type citext
, you may need to take special action. Refer to www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/release-9-1-2.html.
MATCH
operator) in FTS4 begins with "^" then that token must be the first in its field of the document.
CREATE INDEX
on very large tables.
DISTINCT
keyword is present.
test_quota.c
module so that it can track preexisting files.
SQLITE_DBSTATUS_CACHE_HIT
and SQLITE_DBSTATUS_CACHE_MISS
to the sqlite3_db_status()
interface.
SQLITE_ENABLE_STAT2
, replacing it with the much more capable SQLITE_ENABLE_STAT3
option.
--pageinfo
and --stats
options and support for multiplexed databases.
sqlite3_data_count()
interface so that it can be used to determine if SQLITE_DONE
has been seen on the prepared statement.
SQLITE_FCNTL_OVERWRITE
file-control by which the SQLite core indicates to the VFS that the current transaction will overwrite the entire database file.
OR
expressions in the WHERE
clause in an effort to find better indices.
SQLITE_DIRECT_OVERFLOW_READ
compile-time option, causing overflow pages to be read directly from the database file, bypassing the page cache.
sqlite3_mprintf()
family of string rendering routines.
