b21a5003e2 [archiso] Split archiso_pxe_nbd in two hooks.
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.

a53cb1442d [archiso] Add archiso_shutdown hook.
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)

c22344d2ed [archiso] Use dm-snapshot instead of aufs2 (A.K.A. "The Big Commit")
* 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 archiso2dual script. Integrate functionality in configs/releng.
* New configs/baseline to build the most basic live medium or use as template.
* New README (draft). [Thanks Dieter for fixing english grammar]
