- Accept hashes in the form "algo:hash" and normalise prefix to
lowercase
- Map common prefixes (md5, sha1, sha256, sha512, b2sum|blake2|blake2b)
to tools
- Warn and skip verification for unknown prefixes
- Add macOS GNU coreutils mapping for gb2sum when using b2sum
- Use printf '%s %s\n' to produce a stable "hash filename" input for
--check

Create macOS VMs with OpenCore embedded in the EFI partition of disk.qcow2
instead of using a separate OpenCore.qcow2 file. This simplifies VM management
by reducing from two disk images to one.
Implementation:
- Add create_macos_disk_with_opencore() using mtools/sgdisk for cross-platform
EFI partition creation without mounting or root privileges
- Add download_opencore() to extract OpenCore files from OSX-KVM image
- Use LC_ALL='' with mcopy to prevent FAT directory name mangling
- Adjust disk size threshold for macOS integrated mode (1GB vs 1.5MB)
Backwards compatibility:
- If OpenCore.qcow2 exists, use legacy two-disk boot method
- If mtools/sgdisk unavailable, fall back to legacy method automatically
New dependencies: mtools, gptfdisk (added to devshell.nix and package.nix)
Closes#1720
The hash URL was incorrectly using 'v${RELEASE}' (e.g., 'vlatest')
instead of extracting the actual version folder from the redirect URL.
Since releases_archcraft returns 'latest', the download redirect goes
to a versioned folder like 'v25.10', but the hash file lookup used
'vlatest' which doesn't exist.
Extract the version folder from the redirect URL to construct the
correct hash file path.
- Use direct mirror URL instead of unreliable shortlink redirects
- Remove lite64 edition from Zorin 18 (now Pro-only)
- Automatically detect latest revision for each version
Fixes:
- slint: Update version from 15.0-5 to 15.0-10
- blendos: Replace dead mirror with official GitLab build server
- void: Filter out directories without standard base ISOs (fixes
20250401)
Removals:
- holoiso: Project archived Feb 2024, download server returns 404
- truenas-core: Discontinued, merged into TrueNAS Community Edition
- truenas-scale: Rebranded to TrueNAS Community Edition
- Replace mirror.bytemark.co.uk with mirrors.kernel.org in get_gentoo,
get_linuxmint and get_lmde
- Prefer kernel.org mirrors for improved availability and fresher
releases
- No change to ISO selection or hash verification logic; behaviour
unchanged

- Remove Devuan 'beowulf' from the release list
- Drop Mageia '8' from the release list
- Filter Fedora releases JSON and exclude Fedora 41 (prevent EOL
entries)
- Restrict GNOME OS parsing to stable numeric versions and keep
"nightly"
- Rationale: avoid presenting EOL or alpha/beta/rc images to users and
reduce failed downloads

- Add require_qemu_img() to detect qemu-img and print a clear error if
missing
- Call require_qemu_img before any qemu-img operations (RecoveryImage,
.img conversions)
- Remove duplicate global qemu-img existence check to avoid repetition

The E:\amd64\w10 directory contains vioscsi and viostor drivers, but
these are already included via E:\vioscsi\w10\amd64 and
E:\viostor\w10\amd64. This duplication causes issues with Windows 11
24H2 and later.
