Bug description:
[ Description ]
We have a project underway at the minute to install any hardware-
specific tweaks that are needed for the currently running machine, and
to select a different kernel on those machines: the OEM kernel. This
requires changes in grub, ubiquity and ubuntu-drivers common. We'd
like to land those changes.
grub
====
On a live session, construct a DMI modalias and match it against the
packages on the CD to see if we need to boot the OEM kernel.
ubuntu-drivers-common
=====================
List the oem-*meta packages which apply to the running machine, and
install those with 'install'.
ubiquity
========
Use the information that ubuntu-drivers provides to show some UI if
there is a matching package, and also install the package if the user
selects it.
[ Testing ]
We have a package "oem-qemu-meta" in Focal which you can use to test
this inn a VM. If you're using libvirt, edit the XML for a Focal VM
and add
In the <os> section: <smbios mode='sysinfo'/>
Under <domain>:
<sysinfo type='smbios'>
<system>
<entry name='product'>UBUNTUQEMUTEST</entry>
</system>
</sysinfo>
