[archiso] Use dm-snapshot instead of aufs2 (A.K.A. "The Big Commit")
* Use device mapper + snapshot module, instead union layer filesystem. * A block-level approach vs vfs-level. * No more unofficial (Linux) things. * More memory is needed. * Refactor mkarchiso. * Refactor hooks/archiso. * Fix install/archiso_pxe_nbd (due recent change in mkinitcpio-0.6.15 on checked_modules()/all_modules()) [Thanks Dave for the improved workaround] * New configs/releng to build official images. * Works with a Bash script instead of Makefile. (better control and easy to maintain) * Remove configs/syslinux-iso. * Remove archiso2dual script. Integrate functionality in configs/releng. * New configs/baseline to build the most basic live medium or use as template. * New README (draft). [Thanks Dieter for fixing english grammar] Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

- Arch Linux
- Installation and Live-CDs
- ----------------------------
-
-All images give you a live console environment in which you can do
-a manual or automatic installation and which can be used as maintenance and rescue systems.
-
-All iso files can also be written to hard disks/usbkeys.
-
-Flavors:
---------
-Netinstall images are the preferred install media for Arch Linux.
-You can always get up to date packages using these media.
-Core images contain a snapshot of the core repository, which makes them ideal
-for offline installations when no Internet access is available
-to install the base system. (you can do a netinstall with these also)
-
-Both come in i686, x86_64 or dual variant. The latter contains both and lets you choose
-an architecture at boot.
-
-How to obtain and use these installation images:
--------------------------------------
-Torrents are preferred (they are webseed enabled), but you can also just get the images
-from an Arch mirror.
-
-The Official Arch Linux Install Guide gives you more info:
