2011-10-23[archiso] Allow persistent cow dm-snapshots.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Add some options to control where all COW files will be located. Until this moment all files are located in a tmpfs filesystem. Now is posible to set a device via a filesystem label or device node plus a directory, where all these files will be stored. All dm-snapshot devices will be persistent by default, but this can be changed if wanted. Take care, a filesystem that does not support sparse files maybe is not the best choice for COW files, because they are created with the same size (is apparent) like the read-only device (the image.fs inside .sfs). Of course sooner or later, depending on use, these files actually end up being as big as the read-only device. KNOW-ISSUE: On shutdown in step "Unmounting Filesystems" will [FAIL], all filesystem except $cow_device, will be unmounted/remounted-ro. For this reason this change needs an archiso_shutdown hook, thats unmount all block devices used by archiso. (Work in progress) Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-10-23[archiso] Add a new function _mnt_dev(), use it for mounting archisodevice.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Separate this code from main mount hook, and make it more generic. _mnt_dev(device, mountpoint, flags) -> wait for device and mount, launch a shell if something goes wrong. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

2011-08-30[archiso] Cleanup archiso install hook.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
* These files was added during developement stage of dm-snapshot branch of archiso. Never was used, sinse archiso works directly with dmsetup and with device nodes in /dev/mapper/ * Added 11-dm-initramfs.rules to keep dm info about nodes persistent in udev db across initramfs/real-root.

2011-06-18[archiso] Use dm-snapshot instead of aufs2 (A.K.A. "The Big Commit")Gerardo 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>

2010-10-12[archiso] Update nbd hook to match newer nbd operation mode.Gerardo 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.

2010-06-04Add optional command line parameter: archisobasedirThomas Bächler
When remastering the image onto a USB volume, you might want to reuse an existing partition without filling the root with lots of archiso files. The archisobasedir parameter allows to specify a new root directory, isomounts and all images will be searched in this directory.
2010-05-16archiso_pxe_nbd: Remove unnecessary/unsupported network modulesThomas Bächler
The archiso_pxe_nbd hook adds all network modules, including ones that are not supported: The hook only supports ethernet devices, so there is no need to add wireless, wimax, ppp, irda and plip modules. Adding the wireless modules had an undesired side effect: The wireless driver was loaded in the initramfs stage, where the required crypto modules were unavailable. This caused the initialization of the wireless devices to fail. This patch removes all network modules except ethernet.
