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). [Thanks Dieter for fixing english grammar] Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

2010-11-30[archiso] Add -D <install_dir> option to mkarchisoGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
-D <install_dir> allow to select install directory on target media defaults to "arch". There is a new %INSTALL_DIR% macro for syslinux.cfg. This is how ISO will look now: /syslinux only syslinux related files (syslinux.cfg, *.c32, etc) /arch/ isomounts + *.sqfs images /arch/boot/ Linux + initramfs + Memtest86+ + other files for early boot stage Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2010-10-18[archiso] Add support for squashfs compression typesGerardo Exequiel Pozzi

2010-07-22Rename all occurrences of isolinux to syslinuxThomas Bächler
The name of the bootloader is syslinux, while isolinux is just one of many components. isolinux.bin now also accepts syslinux.cfg as a configuration file name (as do all other loaders). Thus, rename the isolinux/ folder to syslinux/, and rename isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg. The only occurrence of 'isolinux' is now the actual loader file 'isolinux.bin'. This makes the transition from isolinux to the other syslinux loaders easier when remastering the ISO onto another medium.
2010-06-30[archiso] Rewrite cleanup step in mkarchisoGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Currently works partially since in bash "*" is not expanded. Old dirs removed, always empty dirs removed from list. Also cleanup sync databases from pacman 3.4.0, avoiding problems with pacman -Sy since "sync" directory is deleted. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2010-03-16Revert back isohybrid offset to default setting.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
This revert back the commit 991a5c69. This causes more problems than solving (fixing the warning issue in parted) With the default offset 0: * makes posibble to create others extra partitions on USB key and use them inside the live enviroment. * makes posible to use /dev/disk/by-label/ symlinks. archiso_early hook, can be removed. Note: archboot also uses the default offset 0.

2010-02-08Fixed offset of partition on isoGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Split from commit 00dda7d4 from Svenstaro repo: changed -offset for mkarchiso from default 0 to 1 so that the other partition on the usb device can still be edited after dd'ing to it Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

2009-11-30mkarchiso: cleaned up to use isohybrid onlySven-Hendrik Haase
2009-11-23mkarchiso: cleanup opts, user dir creationSven-Hendrik Haase
As in title, this patch cleans up opt flags that exist for no reason and adds additional flags to modify the disk meta info which would otherwise be hardcoded. I wasn't quite sure about the user directory part but it doesn't seem like a good idea to put that part into the script and therefore I commented it out. It would probably interfere with rc.local scripts that take care of skel copying. I replaced the part after the TODO with a safe guard to make sure that people who are not aware of the changes will not be caught by surprise. Signed-off-by: Aaron Griffin <aaronmgriffin@gmail.com>

Check if there are any modification of files/directories inside the target directory for squashfs image. Implements in some way this item in TODO: * Add 'needsupdate' function to check if a squashfs image in the iso dir is up to date, if so, skip it; else rebuild it. No more need for the -f flag Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2009-10-21Fix how mkarchiso makes usb imageGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
The current implementation in how partition is created for ext2 img it looks a bit bad. This patch makes the partition in more standarized way, respecting cylinder alignement: * The size of resulting image will be in cylinder multiple ~8MB. * Use fdisk instead of sfdisk (sfdisk write some bad information) * Make the result image in one pass, instead of concatenating. Also the advantage is that with this can add another partitions without any issues in the usb-flash-drive with this .img.
