Add two parameters:
img_dev=/dev/sdNM
where /dev/sdNM is the device where .iso is located.
img_loop=/path/to/arch.iso
where /path/to/arch.iso is the full path of the .iso in the device img_dev.
Original idea from Baurzhan Muftakhidinov.

-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

This was wrong and can never have worked. Fix it.

Newer nbd-server uses config file instead of parameters via cmd line (deprecated).
Also does not use a fixed port (oldstyle).
Sample nbd-server.conf that works with this change:
-- CUT HERE --
[generic]
[archiso]
readonly = true
exportname = /tmp/archlinux.iso
-- CUT HERE --

* squashfs images that will be part of read-only branchs for union mount in /
are mounted on /ro_branch/{image_name} instead of /tmpfs/mnt/{image_name}
(and avoid empty dirs on live env under /mnt)
* tmpfs that will be part of read-write branch for union mount in /
is mounted on /rw_branch instead of /tmpfs
* tmpfs that is for store *.sqfs images when copytoram=y, is mounted on
/copytoram instead of /tmpfs.sqfs
* tmpfs_size= parameter renamed to rw_branch_size=
* tmpfs_sqfs_size= parameter renamed to copytoram_size=

Takes the same actions independent of medium (disk/cdrom).

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.
|
|
Otherwise archiso_pxe_nbd hook can configure the incorrect network card,
because ipconfig will configure all interfaces available.

Takes the advantage of already symlinks created on /dev/disk/by-label/ by
60-persistent-storage.rules add by udev hook.
Tested on:
* Real machine as CD-ROM and USB key drive.
* KVM as CD-ROM and DISK (for both modes, in combination with IDE and SCSI)
* VirtualBox as IDE CD-ROM.
IMPORTANT note: Since isohybrid is a hack, if more partitions are added to
USB key drive, filesystem on these partitions MUST have LABEL, otherwise
USB key will fail to boot. Anyway there is an option archisodevice=,
to force and specific device where live-media reside.
(Maybe isohybrid will change the hack method used in a future)

Fixes FS#17182: copytoram=y does not work with aufs
The solution is simple, just use a directory outside aufs tree.
* If copytoram=y, then another tmpfs is mounted but on /tmpfs.sqfs
* Add a new option: tmpfs_sqfs_size= (default to 75%)
* Lock cdrom drive is not locked if copytoram=y

Some basic changes to make archiso hooks work with the next mkinitcpio 0.6
Tested under KVM, a ""2010.02"" and works fine with it.
NOTE: current mkinitcpio-0.5.99.2-2 does not include "losetup", maybe
will be included in next version, see #[1]. For now must be added manually.

Rename ramdisk_size parameter to tmpfs_size to avoid conflict with
the kernel parameter that is for old ramdisk based blockdevs (/dev/ramN)
and confusion to users.
The kernel parameter ramdisk_size=N is in "N * k size", while tmpfs
size=N is in "N * [ k | m | g ] byte size" or "in N% of RAM",
like is used by default on archiso.
This parameter is used only for tmpfs in size option.

fstype from klibc don't detect a vfat formatted blockdevice when try to
mount /dev/archiso to /bootmnt. Some users don't use the recommened
method with dd to bring the image to their USB stick. If they for ex.
use Unetbootin to put the iso image on their (v)fat formatted stick they
got lost with a kernel panic cause fstype won't detect vfat, so the
mount and the later squashfs bindings traps.

USB boot delay is now handled with the usbdelay kernel param (default=0)

This is a hacky way to mount squashfs images at directories
other than the root. We mount the image to a loop device
and then bind it to another directory.
This technically supersedes the 'bind' image type, so that
should be removed...
