* Use sources/compatresources.dll, when available, to try to detect the Windows ISO version and build.
* Also report what facility we use for formatting.
* Since version 8.2, and rhinstaller/anaconda@a766101954,
Red Hat derivatives have changed their CD-ROM detection policy which leads to
the installation source not being found when writing the media in ISO mode.
* Replace 'inst.stage2' by 'inst.repo' in the kernel options.
* Closes#1777 (See also rhinstaller/anaconda#rhinstaller/anaconda#3529).
* Note that this reverts part of 9c8fa40995.
* Windows 11 appears to be a lot more proactive in locking system partitions (ESPs, MSRs)
than previous versions of Windows were, resulting in format or access errors.
* Try to work around these by disabling exclusive drive locking as needed.
* Also use build number to detect Windows Server 2019 and Windows 11
since Microsoft are COMPLETE ASSES about their version reporting.
* Also fix a compilation warning.
* In replace_in_token_data() when looking for lines starting with a specific
token but finding lines containing a larger version of the token (e.g. looking
for 'linux' but finding 'linux16') we would forget to output the non matching
line as we rejected it.
* This produced issues such as the one described at:
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2465291&page=10&p=14052629#post14052629
* Fix this by ensuring that we always output the lines that we reject.
* write_sector() should really only be used when writing single sectors as it
is way to slow for anything else => Switch to using WriteFileWithRetry().
* Also revert an unwarranted change from f0047986e7.
* ...that didn't get the memo about using UPPERCASE 11-chars max ISO labels.
* There's a reason why Arch labels its ISOs 'ARCH_YYYYMM', people!
* Anyway, EndeavourOS should now work in ISO mode when booted from UEFI.
* In their great wisdom, the openSUSE maintainers added a 'set linux=linux'
line to their grub.cfg, which means that their kernel option token is no
longer 'linux' but '$linux'... and we have to add a workaround for that.
* If users set the persistent size to max, we may run into a situation
where projected size (which is always a rough estimation) is too low.
* When persistence is in use, we increase the projected size by 10%, to
ensure that the above scenario cannot happen.
* Also work around potential issues with Windows APIs when the application
is launched from the root of a drive.
* While this is intended to solve the issue of saving GRUB/Syslinux files for the
App Store version, we apply this change globally, as it allows the user to move
the Rufus executable around while preserving access to existing downloads.
* Closes#1744
* This basically means that the script is validate *TWICE*, using two
completely independent signatures, before it is allowed to run, which
should add another mitigation layer against TOCTOU (which we already
friggin' mitigated against anyway) and other potential vectors of
attack.
* Also remove -DisableFirstRunCustomize option and the associated cookie
prompt monitoring, which the latest version of Fido no longer requires.
* Also update WDK version for signtool and flesh out PKI error messages.
* Trying to mount accessible partitions after writing an image may lead to the
creation of the infamous 'System Volume Information' folder on ESPs, which in
turn leads to checksum errors for Ubuntu's boot/grub/efi.img (that maps to the
Ubuntu ESP). So comment out that code.
* Also fix a missing CRLFs in the log after displaying write progress.
