2024-04-19configs/releng/: use mkinitcpio's microcode hook instead of external ↵nl6720
microcode images This simplifies boot loader configuration, but custom PXE setups will be forced to update theirs. Implements https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/226
2024-04-01Add configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/03-archiso-x86_64-memtest86+.confnl6720
Create a boot entry for Memtest86+. Implements https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/228
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.

2020-10-31Set bootloader timeouts to 15sDavid Runge
configs/releng/efiboot/loader/loader.conf, configs/releng/syslinux/archiso_sys.cfg: Set the bootloader timeout to 15s, as they have been set to an overly generous 30s in !79. Fixes #80

this fixes #67
2020-09-27Use the same file paths in both ISO 9660 and FATnl6720
This allows to use only one systemd-boot configuration file per kernel. Fixes https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/44 .
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
2020-06-30Standardizing boot loader entry formatDavid Runge
{configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/archiso-x86_64-{cd,usb}.conf,configs/releng/syslinux/archiso_{pxe,sys}.cfg}: Standardizing the boot loader entry format by switching all entries to the form: "Arch Linux install medium (<CARCH>[, <PROPERTY>])". This removes the distinction between "CD" and "USB" when booting in UEFI "el-torito" (as the information is not useful). Changing some of the syslinux help text as well to reflect this change. This also drops the specific <CARCH> from the syslinux help text as it is duplicated information. Closes #24
2020-06-23Removing custom UEFI shell boot loader configsDavid Runge
configs/releng/build.sh: Copying the edk2-shell based Shell_Full.efi to the root of the iso/ efi image as 'shellx64.efi' is automatically picked up by certain hardware and by systemd-boot. This makes all custom UEFI shell configuration obsolete. configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/uefi-shell-*.conf: Removing obsolete custom UEFI shell boot loader configuration. Closes #14
2020-05-30Fixing default bootloader menu selection.David Runge
configs/releng/efiboot/loader/loader.conf: The 'default' bootloader selection of systemd-boot is based on a glob pattern. The previous pattern was not sufficient to select anything, which is why it is now made explicit (pointing to archiso-x86_64.conf).
2020-05-30Using edk2-shell for UEFI shellDavid Runge
configs/releng/build.sh: Instead of downloading UDK2018 based edk2 UEFI shell, use the Shell binaries from the edk2-shell package. This effectively makes the use of EFI shell v1 obsolete. configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/uefi-shell-v*: Renaming UEFI shell entries to match the packaged edk2-shell based UEFI shell binaries. configs/releng/build.sh: Renaming the systemd-boot bootloader entries for UEFI shell (normal and full version) to reflect their file names, which are derived from the binary names in the edk2-shell package. Copying the edk2-shell based UEFI shell binaries for normal efiboot and .iso based "el-torito" efiboot mode. docs/README.build: Adding edk2-shell to the requirements in the documentation, as the package is now used to provide UEFI shell.

2012-04-10[configs/releng] Add UEFI boot support via Linux >= 3.3 EFI boot stub on x86_64Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Makes an efiboot.img (FAT16) for "El Torito" (additional). Under an EFI-system, implies that this .ISO works only if is used as "CD-ROM/DVD-ROM" not in ISO-HYBRID-MBR mode. If you want, an EFI-ready USB-key, just unpack this "<ISO>/EFI/efiboot.img" (FAT16) to "<USB-key-FAT-formatted>/EFI" then copy "<ISO>/arch" and setup the filesystem label. An aditional EFI shell is provided with an startup script for automatic booting until EFI_STUB supports "linux.conf" to pass boot parms to kernel. Anyway I think that is a good idea to keep this shell, so can customize boot parms, or for doing other tasks on systems without an EFI-shell. RFCv1: Initial efiboot.img build with vmlinuz.efi (Linux with EFI_STUB enabled) and archiso.img (initramfs). RFCv2: Use an startup.nsh with EFI-Shell 2.0 (generated from build.sh) for automatic boot. RFCv3: Use and older EFI-Shell 1.0 instead of 2.0, since not all UEFI-systems are compatible with 2.3+ specs. RFCv4: The script "startup.nsh" improved by Keshav P R, using a for-loop (see notes below from original commit), now that has more than 1-line, I moved it to an independent file and is parsed by build.sh. ---- About startup.nsh: Author: Keshav P R <the.ridikulus.rat@gmail.com> Date: Thu Apr 5 10:33:20 2012 +0530 [configs/releng] Search in all existing UEFI FS mountpoints for archiso efistub kernel file There is no guarantee that the efistub kernel will always be in fs0: (similar to the case inside linux OS where the sda, sdb confusion exists, hence the need for UUIDs), especially when USB (instead os CD/ISO) is used for booting. Hence loop through all possible fs mountpoints (in UEFI) in startup.nsh and try to launch the first mountpoint that contains the archiso files. Cd's into the fs%m:\EFI\archiso directory also may remove future issues with efistub's linux.conf where the efistub might have problems identifying the directory from which the kernel was launched. Also add an helpful echo message showing the user the UEFI PATH to the archiso kernel file being launched by startup.nsh . Hopefully this should work in both CD and USB. Tested in Tianocore UDK/EDK2 DuetPkg X64 UEFI 2.3.1 firmware with EdkShellBinPkg's Shell. ---- Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
