2011-11-29Add common KMS modules to the releng initramfs image.Thomas Bächler
On machines with common graphics chipsets (radeon, intel, nvidia), enable KMS early. Downloading images from a remote server can take time, better view the status with a nice resolution.
2011-11-29[archiso] Fix libnss symlinks.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Otherwise does not work. 22100 Nov 29 09:29 ./lib/libnss_dns-2.14.1.so 20 Nov 29 09:29 ./lib/libnss_dns.so.2 -> libnss_dns-2.14.1.so 46732 Nov 29 09:29 ./lib/libnss_files-2.14.1.so 22 Nov 29 09:29 ./lib/libnss_files.so.2 -> libnss_files-2.14.1.so Looks like my test was made before introducing symlinks and using directly libnss_dns-$VERSION.so.2 as libnss_dns.so.2.

2011-11-28[archiso] Add archiso_pxe_curl hookGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Its add support for downloading the ISO image via HTTP/FTP with curl or download *.sfs files. The files are downloaded on /run/archiso/curlspace (tmpfs) and setup a loop dev from it (like in archiso_loop_mnt) in the ISO case, or just do a bind mount to /run/archiso/bootmnt in the other case. This hook must be located after archiso_pxe_nbd in mkinitcpio.conf, in that way NBD is the default. New bootparm: * archiso_curl_url=(first form) archiso_curl_url=http://192.168.0.7/archlinux/iso/archlinux.iso (absolute form) Use an absolute URL. Fetch the entire ISO archiso_curl_url=ftp://${pxeserver}/archlinux/iso/archlinux.iso (relative form) Use the as IP the same server where PXE reside. Fetch the entire ISO * archiso_curl_url=(second form) archiso_curl_url=http://192.168.0.7/archlinux/iso/unpacked (absolute form) Use an absolute URL. Where unpacked (an example name) is a directory where ${archisobasedir} ("arch" by default) is located with all *.sfs. This fetch only needed files. archiso_curl_url=ftp://${pxeserver}/archlinux/iso/unpacked (relative form) Use the as IP the same server where PXE reside. Where unpacked (an example name) is a directory where ${archisobasedir} ("arch" by default) is located with all *.sfs. This fetch only needed files. * curlspace_size= Set a size for a tmpfs filesystem where files are downloaded. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-11-28[archiso] Split archiso_pxe_nbd in two hooks.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
One hook only setup the network device (archiso_pxe_common) the other setup the NBD client (archiso_pxe_nbd). New bootparam: archiso_pxe_srv=IP Allow to set an IP different from the PXE server. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-11-28[archiso] Check if /run/archiso/bootmnt is a mountpoint.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
In this way allow to mount /run/archiso/bootmnt from another hook, but still use the logic from the main mount_hook, skipping only this mount. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-11-28[archiso] Use different logic when archisodevice == cow_deviceGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
* Now bootmnt/img_dev is always a ro-mount, and cowspace is first ro-mount then rw-mount. * Fix a "hidden" bug: at the time of test [[ -ef ]], if devices nodes are not ready, such test will fail then archisodevice will mounted ro and when cow_device is mounted to be rw it fails. (I recently suffered this on a machine with slow USB) Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>

2011-10-23[archiso] Add archiso_shutdown hook.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
STATUS: Working (std boot, loop_mnt, pxe) with copytoram=[y|n]. NEEDS: initscript > 2011.07.3, mkinitcpio > 0.7.2, mkinitcpio-busybox > 1.18.5-1 Purpose: we need this for propertly unmount $cow_device, used for persistent dm-snapshot devices. This hook is based on work from Tom Gundersen[#1], but adapted for archiso things (specially the shutdown script) [#1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2011-July/001549.html [#2] http://projects.archlinux.org/initscripts.git/commit/?id=1fa7b4b453e96533ae1db3630031285e5fc302b3 [#3] http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2011-August/001749.html Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-10-23[archiso] Mount all fs on /run/archiso instead of /Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi

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
* Use device mapper + snapshot module, instead union layer filesystem. * A block-level approach vs vfs-level. * No more unofficial (Linux) things. * More memory is needed. * Refactor mkarchiso. * Refactor hooks/archiso. * Fix install/archiso_pxe_nbd (due recent change in mkinitcpio-0.6.15 on checked_modules()/all_modules()) [Thanks Dave for the improved workaround] * New configs/releng to build official images. * Works with a Bash script instead of Makefile. (better control and easy to maintain) * Remove configs/syslinux-iso. * Remove archiso2dual script. Integrate functionality in configs/releng. * New configs/baseline to build the most basic live medium or use as template. * New README (draft).

2010-12-07[archiso] Add support to mount iso in loopback mode.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
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.

2010-07-09Rename directories and parameteres to be more descriptiveGerardo Exequiel Pozzi
* 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= Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2010-06-23Make it compatible with latest mkinitcpio.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
Latest init script mounts a /dev FS, so /dev/loop0 will disappear. Create loop0 on /lib/udev/devices so udev copy to /dev on startup. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
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.

2010-03-16Remove archiso_early hook, use /dev/disk/by-label/${archisolabel} instead.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi
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) More info at: http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-releng/2010-March/000890.html http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-releng/2010-March/000913.html Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
