2022-09-01Order pacman-init.service before archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync.servicenl6720
archlinux-keyring-wkd-sync.service needs an initialized pacman keyring to work. Add BindsTo=etc-pacman.d-gnupg.mount to stop pacman-init.service if the mount unit suddenly enters inactive state.

This helps on systems with screwed or broken RTC.
2022-08-19mkarchiso: preload more GRUB modules and disable shim_lock verifiernl6720
--disable-shim-lock is required to support Secure Boot with custom signatures without using shim. Otherwise GRUB will trow an error when trying to boot a kernel: error: shim_lock protocol not found. error: you need to load the kernel first. The modules GRUB will use need to be preloaded otherwise the EFI binaries cannot be signed and used for Secure Boot. See https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/71382. GRUB will trow en error: error: verification requested but nobody cares These changes are done to support Secure Boot using custom keys (not shim) by simply extracting the boot loader (BOOTx64.EFI and BOOTIA32.EFI), kernel, UEFI shell, signing them and then repacking the ISO. For example. Extract the files: $ osirrox -indev archlinux-YYYY.MM.DD-x86_64.iso \ -extract_boot_images ./ \ -extract /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI BOOTx64.EFI \ -extract /EFI/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI BOOTIA32.EFI \ -extract /shellx64.efi shellx64.efi \ -extract /shellia32.efi shellia32.efi \ -extract /arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux vmlinuz-linux Make the files writable: $ chmod +w BOOTx64.EFI BOOTIA32.EFI shellx64.efi shellia32.efi vmlinuz-linux Sign the files: $ sbsign --key db.key --cert db.crt --output BOOTx64.EFI BOOTx64.EFI $ sbsign --key db.key --cert db.crt --output BOOTIA32.EFI BOOTIA32.EFI $ sbsign --key db.key --cert db.crt --output shellx64.efi shellx64.efi $ sbsign --key db.key --cert db.crt --output shellia32.efi shellia32.efi $ sbsign --key db.key --cert db.crt --output vmlinuz-linux vmlinuz-linux Copy the boot loader and UEFI shell to the EFI system partition image: $ mcopy -D oO -i eltorito_img2_uefi.img BOOTx64.EFI BOOTIA32.EFI ::/EFI/BOOT/ $ mcopy -D oO -i eltorito_img2_uefi.img shellx64.efi shellia32.efi ::/ Repack the ISO using the modified El Torito UEFI boot image and add the signed boot loader files, UEFI shell and kernel to ISO9660: $ xorriso -indev archlinux-YYYY.MM.DD-x86_64.iso \ -outdev archlinux-YYYY.MM.DD-x86_64-Secure_Boot.iso \ -boot_image any replay \ -append_partition 2 0xef eltorito_img2_uefi.img \ -map BOOTx64.EFI /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.EFI \ -map BOOTIA32.EFI /EFI/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI \ -map shellx64.efi /shellx64.efi \ -map shellia32.efi /shellia32.efi \ -map vmlinuz-linux /arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux Boot the resulting archlinux-YYYY.MM.DD-x86_64-Secure_Boot.iso.
2022-08-17mkarchiso: copy all GRUB files to the ISOnl6720
Do not limit file copying to only grub.cfg and instead copy all GRUB configuration files and assets to both the ISO9660 and FAT image. This will allow for including custom images, fonts, etc. To easily match all non-configuration files (i.e. files without the .cfg extension), bash's extended glob feature will be enabled. Actions common to multiple _make_bootmode_uefi-*.grub are split off into dedicated functions: * _make_common_bootmode_grub_copy_to_efibootimg, * _make_common_bootmode_grub_copy_to_isofs, * _make_common_bootmode_grub_cfg. Use the same du command in all efiboot_imgsize variable assignments. Fixes #185.

The glibc 2.35-6 package ships with the C.UTF-8 locale included, so mkarchiso does not need to use a non-UTF-8 locale anymore. Implements #175.
2022-06-09configs/: use the C.UTF-8 localenl6720
The glibc 2.35-6 package ships with the C.UTF-8 locale included. This means there is now a UTF-8 locale available by default and en_US.UTF-8, which requires editing /etc/locale.gen and running locale-gen, is not needed anymore. Implements #175.

Since we do not want any GPT partition automounting in the live environment anyway, systemd-gpt-auto-generator can simply be disabled. Fixes #164.
2022-03-25syslinux PXE: Forced all TFTP paths to be absoluteEric Toombs
By default, syslinux interprets TFTP paths as relative to the location of the *.c32 modules, regardless whether a path starts with a slash. Without the `::` that I added to all of these paths, syslinux cannot find these files. It searches for them in /%INSTALL_DIR%/syslinux//%INSTALL_DIR%/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux, etc.
