2011-08-15[configs/releng] Add purge_* commandsGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
purge_single command can be usefull to save space during build. It removes all files in working directory except "iso/" and *.iso. Workflow can be: (32) ./build.sh all_iso_single -> i686 *.iso are ready. (32) ./build.sh purge_single -> safe cleanup. (64) ./build.sh all_iso_single -> x86_64 *.iso are ready. (64) ./build.sh purge_single -> safe cleanup. (any) ./build.sh all_iso_dual -> dual *.iso are ready. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-08-09[archiso] Add dm_snap_prefix= boot param.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi

2011-06-18[archiso] Use dm-snapshot instead of aufs2 (A.K.A. "The Big Commit")Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
* 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).
