* Added support for storing disk encryption keyfiles and add them to a keyslot.
* Added a luks2().add_key() function in order to inject a keyfile into a keyslot on a encrypted volume.
* Simplified 'missing encryption password' logic in Filesystem(). Added a call to luks2().add_key() after the root-password is set on the volume, to add the keyfile in slot 2
* Adding in password handling in luks2().add_key(). It's required to enter a previous passphrase to unlock the volume and add a new keyslot. Also simplified the handling of partition in Installer().mount_ordered_layout()
* Adding in encryption on all partitions except /boot when encryption is opted in
* Removed setting size on Partition() as it's a read only value. No idea how Partition().size = size hasn't caused an issue before. Removed size=X argument to Partition()
* Added a uniqueness to the loopdevice name. This should ensure that multiple encrypted volumes can be opened at the same time, except for Partition().detect_inner_filesystem() operations which can only happen one at a time since they share namespace. This should never be an issue since archinstall is single threaded and no concurrent operations can/should happen.
* Added partprobe() as part of disk/helpers.py, added a /dev/ -> UUID mapper function called convert_device_to_uuid(path). Added a luks2().crypttab() function that sets up a /etc/crypttab entry.
* Moved the responsability for telling archinstall to generate a keyfile from Filesystem() to user_interaction.py. This should in the future be a user-input based value, and not something the Filesystem() automatically dictates.
* Added a retry mechanism to luks2().encrypt() to avoid having to re-start the installation when a device simply wasn't up yet.
* Swapping UUID= lookup from loopdev to physdev.

(#760)
* Add group of accesibility tools
* Conditionally extend base packages
* Enable it if accessibility in use in guided
* Fix circular import
|
|
* For fun, allow NTFS as a root filesystem type
Add ability to format a filesystem as NTFS
Try to force filesystem type
Fix FAT mounting
* Split out mount fs type method
* Handle rootfstype on non-GRUB bootloaders
* Add -Q to mkfs.ntfs command line for quick formatting
* I believe this will fix GRUB with NTFS root
* Remove the fsck hook if NTFS is used as the root partition
* Looks like the string is ntfs3 not ntfs so this logic wasn't running

* Added multiple `partprobe` calls and added a `.partprobe()` function on partitions, filesystem and blockdevice.
* Adding retry attempts to all UUID related operations tied to the boot process
* Tweaked logging for mounting and disk related operations
* Removed potential SysCall exception disruptor causing exceptions to go by unnoticed
* Increased the start position from 1MiB to 5MiB of /boot partition
* Optimized the GRUB installation & config code
* Improved Partition().uuid to never return None. Instead it will raise an exception if it can't get a PARTUUID within X retries with Y delay per attempt.
* Increased sleep timer for partition uuid retrieval, because even with a 3 second sleep it wasn't long enough even on fast devices.
* Make GRUB install to /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1.
* Added 10 retries for retreiving PARTUUID with a one second sleep. Instead of increasing the sleep simply add more retries until we find a good balance on slower disks.

Add EFISTUB bootloader support through config/api calls using:
```json
{
"bootloader": "efistub",
"kernels": [
"linux",
"linux-lts"
]
}
```

* Clear storage variable if shutdown was successful
* Adding shutdown monitoring and debug output.
* It seams systemd-run gets a connection reset from running 'shutdown now', but in a good way - so it doesn't raise any exceptions. Or at least that's what it looks like.

Since systemd takes care of mounting /tmp as a tmpt, there's no point in having a manual entry in fstab.

fail, and adding a exception so that the installation doesn't continue silently. This causes too much confusion (even tho I liked the idea that people could recover the missing parts without having to re-run the installer for subsequent steps.

`add_bootloader` no longer needs to have a harddrive given as a argument. It will (and should) auto-detect what's mounted in the `self.target` (aka mountpoint) of the installation.

We need to have two partitions in BIOS one for boot (grub)
and the other for root (/). The format of the boot partition
is ext2 (so it is added).
If disk is chosen to be encrypted, `then /etc/default/grub` is edited
as the followings: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#Configuring_GRUB_2
Issue: https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/issues/586
This work is done while working on CachyOS which is Arch based and
it is using customized archinstaller.
To test these changes you can try CachyOS installer which supports
encrypted disk with grub (https://wiki.cachyos.org/).
