2024-04-19configs/: replace archisodevice boot parameter with archisosearchuuidnl6720
`archisosearchuuid=` first searches for a matching UUID. If that fails, then it mounts and looks for a `/boot/${archisosearchuuid}.uuid` file in all detected block devices (in whatever order `blkid` lists them). This implements "file system transposition" without relaying on boot loader specific features and does not tie us to GRUB anymore. Related to https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/merge_requests/48 Fixes https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/217
2023-05-17Use UUIDs in all boot loader configuration filesnl6720
Relying on the volume UUID instead of its LABEL avoids collisions of multiple ISOs created in the same month. Fixes #202
2022-10-22configs/: remove "Copy to RAM" boot entries since it is automatic nownl6720
The default is now copytoram=auto which enables copying to RAM when the rootfs image size is less than 4 GiB and free RAM exceeds the rootfs image size + 2 GiB. See https://gitlab.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/issues/13 and https://gitlab.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/merge_requests/26. Implements #177.
2021-07-29Remove SPDX license identifier from releng configsDavid Runge
configs/baseline/*: Remove the SPDX license identifier comment from the configuration files in the profile, as they are not eligible for copyright.
2021-05-14add optional pv toolSimon Wilper
use pv to give feedback on copying the airootfs to RAM when copytoram kernel parameter is given
2021-04-30configs/releng/syslinux/: increase serial baud rate to 115200nl6720
Additionally enable serial in baseline profile. Related to #75.
2020-11-30Keep all SYSLINUX files in /syslinuxnl6720
This gets rid of the duplicate ldlinux.c32 and the useless isolinux.cfg which only points to syslinux.cfg. Implements https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/46 .
2020-10-24configs/baseline: support UEFInl6720
2020-09-27Split SYSLINUX configuration into per-kernel configuration filesnl6720
Slightly simplifies adding boot loader configuration for more kernels. Unfortunately the INCLUDE statement doesn't support wildcards, so each new file must be manually included in the main syslinux configuration file (syslinux.cfg for baseline and archiso_sys.cfg for releng).
2020-09-27Do not rename the initramfs imagenl6720
This is a breaking change. archweb, archiso-manager and various documentation must be updated. * https://github.com/archlinux/archweb/blob/master/templates/releng/archlinux.ipxe * https://github.com/pierres/archiso-manager/blob/master/Makefile
2020-07-29Add license and basic documentationDavid Runge
LICENSE: Add GPL-3.0 license. {{archiso,configs}/*,.editorconfig,.gitlab-ci.yml}: Add SPDX license identifier. Makefile: Add SPDX license identifier. Install the `run_archiso.sh` script as global executable `run_archiso`. Use -D and -t flags to install to install files more generically (without a previous call to install the directory). README.rst: Add README outlining the project's scope, how to build images from the profiles and how to test. AUTHORS.rst: Add list of all direct contributors to the repository. CONTRIBUTING.rst: Add basic contribution guidelines, explaining the linter and the license in use. Closes #7 Closes #3
2020-07-28Copy files more genericallyDavid Runge
configs/*: Copy all files that do not need a rename generically (not specifying a destination file name). Do not rename vmlinuz-linux to vmlinuz or vmlinuz.efi (as this serves no purpose and makes the scripts more complicated). Do not rename microcode (i.e. {amd,intel}-ucode.img) when copying them and change all boot loader configuration files that assume a renamed microcode image. Add note and link to Arch Linux wiki to state why memtest.bin is renamed to memtest. Copy license files for {amd,intel}-ucode and memtest more generically by placing them into subdirectories with the same name as the package (to circumenvent overwriting one other). Closes #33
2020-07-11Automatically boot the installation environment from syslinuxnl6720
Timeout is 3 seconds to match systemd-boot's configuration.
2020-06-30Clear the screen after syslinux exitsnl6720
Reduce the time where boot loader artifacts linger on screen after the boot loader has done its job.
2013-01-02[configs/baseline] Use relative paths for syslinux like in releng profileGerardo Exequiel Pozzi

2011-12-02[configs/*] syslinux: Use UI instead of DEFAULT for *menu.c32Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
* UI is more correct than DEFAULT for simple menu system. * Remove TIMEOUT * Remove PROMPT 0, this is the default value. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-07-24[archiso] Update kernel image name for linux-3.0Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Also rename kernel from vmlinuz-linux to vmlinuz to make filename ISO9660 friendly. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
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).
