* Don't nest code blocks inside quote blocks.
* Replace bash with sh, as there's nothing bash-specific in the examples.
* There is no syntax highlighting for grub, use sh.
* Use sentence case for headings.
* Use monospace for paths.
mkarchiso creates "${airootfs_dir}/etc/machine-id" by using output redirection. If this file is an existing symlink, then the printf output would be written to the symlink target. It can be a big issue in case the symlink resolves to a path outside ${airootfs_dir}.
Fixes#121.
This provides the ISO version information in the os-release file.
* IMAGE_ID is set to the value of $iso_name.
* IMAGE_VERSION is set to the value of $iso_version.
Implements #116.
.gitlab/ci/build-host.sh:
Change the readonly TMPDIR variable to a global tmpdir variable and set it in the `init()` function.
.gitlab/ci/build-inside-vm.sh:
Change assigning the readonly tmpdir variable directly to assigning it after declaring it.
Change `cleanup()` and `create_zsync_delta()` to use bash-style statements and also check whether SUDO_GID is set before
using it.
Some hardware, like Lenovo Thinkpad T420, will not BIOS boot if the disk has a valid GPT.
See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=264096 .
Instead of a valid GPT, change to a valid MBR and invalid GPT similar to what was used before 729d16b48c. That layout, despite having crazy partition tables, boots everywhere.
The difference is that -append_partition is still kept and specified before -isohybrid-gpt-basdat. Thus the appended partition will be listed as EFI system partition in MBR and as Microsoft basic partition in the invalid GPT.
Fixes#102.
README.rst:
Add a "Releases" section that specifies who is creating releases and which PGP key ID is used to sign tags.
Additionally, information about how to retrieve the relevant public key and how to verify a tag in the repository is
added.
Fixes#114
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/xdg/reflector/reflector.conf:
Reduce the amount mirrors that reflector checks from 70 to 20.
This significantly reduces the time it takes to end up with an up-to-date mirrorlist during boot with the releng
profile.
Fixes#92
configs/releng/airootfs/root/.automated_script.sh:
Add the `--location` curl parameter (see `man 1 curl`) to allow for curl to retrieve a remote script even if the source
is being redirected (e.g. moved permanently) when using the `script=` kernel commandline parameter.
Fixes#113
EROFS, like Squashfs, is a read-only file system. It can be used to store airootfs in an image file.
Its advantage is the support for POSIX ACLs. EROFS downside is that currently it only supports LZ4 compression (LZMA support is not yet fully implemented).
A difference from Squashfs is that, EROFS stores change time (ctime) not modification time (mtime). The reverse is true for Squashfs.
Implements https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/59
configs/releng/packages.x86_64:
Add usbmuxd to list of packages, so that users have the option to use iOS devices out-of-the-box for data connection
during installation.
Fixes#99
`du --block-size=MiB` (and `du -m`) returns mebibytes not megabytes.
Additionally, shorten the du command. `du --block-size=MiB` is the same as `du -m`.
.gitlab/ci/build-host.sh:
Set shebang to /usr/bin/env bash to be more portable/flexible.
Turn all posix statements ([]) to bash style statements ([[]]), as we are using bash.
Terminate the list of parameters to rm or cp with --.
Replace the implementation of finding a local ISO to use with one that relies on a sorted list of potential images.
Use virtio-net-pci for networking with qemu.
Set the cow_spacesize to 4G for the archiso environment.
Use --needed in the call to pacman to not re-install already up-to-date targets.
Attempt a full system upgrade (but ignore the kernel).
Increase the timeout for when installing packages to the archiso environment using pacman to 120s, as a system upgrade
is being done as well.
Use systemctl poweroff -i to shut down the virtual machine as it is more future proof and robust.
.gitlab-ci.yml:
Add a build stage to the gitlab CI, that facilitates the scripts below .gitlab/ci/, building the baseline and releng
profiles in parallel.
Distinguish the use-case in which builds are done for master, schedules and tags in a secure environment and any other
where builds just have to be fast (for ensuring nothing is broken).
Use MiB as block size for the du call when generating data for the metrics file.
.gitlab/ci/build-host.sh:
Add script to be run in a container with access to qemu.
It is a slight modification of arch-boxes' build-host.sh script to cater to the specific archiso requirements.
.gitlab/ci/build-inside-vm.sh:
Add script to be run in virtualized environment, established by build-host.sh.
This script builds the actual archiso profiles and creates checksum for the resulting image files.
After pacman-mirrorlist is installed, /etc/pacman.d/hooks/uncomment-mirrors.hook will run a sed command which uncomments all Server lines in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
This brings us another step closer to the complete removal of customize_airootfs.sh.
