- Enable parallel downloads in profile pacman configurations
- Generalize the approach of interacting with ucode images
- Execute the netboot build mode for the baseline profile in CI

[55] - 2021-06-01
=================

Added
-----

- Add integration for pv when using the copytoram boot parameter so that progress on copying the image to RAM is shown
- Add experimental support for EROFS by using it for the rootfs image in the baseline profile

Changed
-------

- Change information on IRC channel, as Arch Linux moved to Libera Chat
- Fix a regression, that would prevent network interfaces to be configured under certain circumstances

[54] - 2021-05-13
=================

Added
-----

- Add the concept of buildmodes to mkarchiso, which allows for building more than the default .iso artifact
  (sequentially)
- Add support to mkarchiso and both baseline and releng profiles for building a bootstrap image (a compressed
  bootstrapped Arch Linux environment), by using the new buildmode `bootstrap`
- Add support to mkarchiso and both baseline and releng profiles for building artifacts required for netboot with iPXE
  (optionally allowing codesigning on the artifacts), by using the new buildmode `netboot`
- Add qemu-guest-agent and virtualbox-guest-utils-nox to the releng profile and enable their services by default to
  allow interaction between hypervisor and virtual machine if the installation medium is booted in a virtualized
  environment

Changed
-------

- Always use the .sig file extension when signing the rootfs image, as that is how mkinitcpio-archiso expects it
- Fix for CI and run_archiso scripts to be compatible with QEMU >= 6.0
- Increase robustness of CI by granting more time to reach the first prompt
- Change CI to build all available buildmodes of the baseline and releng profiles (baseline's netboot is currently
  excluded due to a bug)
- Install all implicitly installed packages explicitly for the releng profile
- Install keyrings more generically when using pacman-init.service
- Consolidate CI scripts so that they may be shared between the archiso, arch-boxes and releng project in the future and
  expose their configuration with the help of environment variables

[53] - 2021-05-01
=================

Added
-----

- Add ISO name to grubenv
