Public bug reported: === Begin SRU Template === [Impact] Newer versions of MAAS require/use some features in newer versions of curtin. This bug tracks and describes new features of curtin that are being brought back to 14.04.
The following is a list of the new features that are being SRU'd. * hardware enablement: ppc64 support MAAS install with fast path installer is expected to work both to PowerNV and KVM guests. * hardware enablement: know kernel mapping for utopic (hwe-u = 3.16). When the Utopic level hardware enablement kernel is made available for 14.04, curtin should be able to utilize that kernel when it is booted in an environment with a 3.16 kernel. * feature: support installing disk images including windows. MAAS's windows install should function. * feature: support creating swap file installations by default should have a swap file created (/swap.img). * feature: support reporting logs back to MAAS curtin install logs are available on maas in 1.7 and later for user inspection. * feature: enable logging of installation to /var/log/curtin/install.log (LP: #1378910) curtin install will always write /var/log/curtin/install.log with log/debug information. [Other Info] MAAS's dependency on newer curtin for hardware enablement and features was raised to the technical board at [1]. There was no official response there, so at the current time we're pursuing this under a standard SRU.
