An archiso profile consists of several configuration files and a directory for files to be added to the resulting image.

pacman.conf
|

|
|
===========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A configuration for pacman is required per profile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some configuration options will not be used or will be modified:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `CacheDir`: the profile's option is **only** used if it is not the default (i.e. `/var/cache/pacman/pkg`) and if it is
|
||
|
|
not the same as the system's option. In all other cases the system's pacman cache is used.
|
||
|
|
* `HookDir`: it is **always** set to the `/etc/pacman.d/hooks` airootfs directory in the work directories airootfs to
|
||
|
|
allow modification via the profile and ensure interoparability with hosts using dracut (see #73 for further
|
||
|
|
information)
|
||
|
|
* `RootDir`: it is **always** removed, as setting it explicitely otherwise refers to the host's root filesystem (see
|
||
|
|
`man 8 pacman` for further information on the `-r` option used by `pacstrap`)
|
||
|
|
* `LogFile`: it is **always** removed, as setting it explicitely otherwise refers to the host's pacman log file (see
|
||
|
|
`man 8 pacman` for further information on the `-r` option used by `pacstrap`)
|
||
|
|
* `DBPath`: it is **always** removed, as setting it explicitely otherwise refers to the host's pacman database (see
|
||
|
|
`man 8 pacman` for further information on the `-r` option used by `pacstrap`)
