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.

The upstream URL is dead and there seems to be no other source or information on this tool. Thus, drop it
2010-07-21Add HDT to the boot menuThomas Bächler
HDT is a hardware detection/info tool. It will show information about your hardware, including PCI devices. It will also show the names of the kernel modules that will support your devices.

2010-06-30[archiso] Rewrite cleanup step in mkarchisoGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Currently works partially since in bash "*" is not expanded. Old dirs removed, always empty dirs removed from list. Also cleanup sync databases from pacman 3.4.0, avoiding problems with pacman -Sy since "sync" directory is deleted. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

2010-06-23Add support for booting from memdiskThomas Bächler
This requires mkinitcpio 0.6.7 or later, as well as syslinux 4.00pre56 or later. See http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK
2010-06-23[syslinux-iso] Add more wireless support on the imageThomas Bächler
This adds crda, wpa_actiond and netcfg, so we can use net-auto-wireless mode on the ISO.

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.

2010-04-23[archiso2dual] Refactor the codeGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Notable changes: * -R option added. Used to specify a file with a list of files or directories to remove from root-image.sqfs. This option only works with -T full. A list of files/directories that will be removed is printed. * -T purge_us profile removed, now is managed via -R option. * Profiles looks now: -T <profile> Type of target image (work is done on root-image.sqfs): basic: join both images, no changes in root-image split: 'basic' + split out usr/share/ and lib/modules/ from root-image full: 'split' + remove specified directories (with -R) from root-image * Code is now a bit small made by some refactions.

2010-03-22Revert back isohybrid offset to default setting.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
This revert back the commit 991a5c69. This causes more problems than solving (fixing the warning issue in parted) With the default offset 0: * makes posibble to create others extra partitions on USB key and use them inside the live enviroment. * makes posible to use /dev/disk/by-label/ symlinks. archiso_early hook, can be removed. Note: archboot also uses the default offset 0.
