When booting the ISO, you can observe a message that systemd-gpt-auto-generator has failed:
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: Reading EFI variable /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/LoaderDevicePartUUID-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f.
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: open("/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/LoaderDevicePartUUID-4a67b082-0a4c-41cf-b6c7-440b29bb8c4f") failed: No such file or directory
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: EFI loader partition unknown, exiting.
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: (The boot loader did not set EFI variable LoaderDevicePartUUID.)
systemd-gpt-auto-generator[197]: Failed to open device: No such device
Seeing as it started to appear relatively recently, it may be a systemd bug.
Since we do not want any GPT partition automounting in the live environment anyway, systemd-gpt-auto-generator can simply be disabled.
Fixes#164.
* virtualbox-guest-utils-nox package and vboxservice.service for VirtualBox.
* qemu-guest-agent package and qemu-guest-agent.service for QEMU & libvirt.
Implements #118.
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
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.

configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/system/reflector.service:
Use the 70 mirrors synced most recently (--latest) instead of a specific time since last sync (--age).
According to FS#67399 using 1hour as sync age is too short, as it sometimes leads to empty list.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/fstab:
/etc/fstab shipped by the filesystem package has only comments. There is no reason to replace it with an empty file.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/system/default.target:
There is no harm in booting to graphical.target. releng does not enable (or even install) any service that has {Required,Wanted}By=graphical.target.
LICENSE:
Add GPL-3.0 license.
{{archiso,configs}/*,.editorconfig,.gitlab-ci.yml}:
Add SPDX license identifier.
Makefile:
Add SPDX license identifier.
Install the `run_archiso.sh` script as global executable `run_archiso`.
Use -D and -t flags to install to install files more generically (without a previous call to install the directory).
README.rst:
Add README outlining the project's scope, how to build images from the profiles and how to test.
AUTHORS.rst:
Add list of all direct contributors to the repository.
CONTRIBUTING.rst:
Add basic contribution guidelines, explaining the linter and the license in use.

/usr/local/bin/Installation_guide:
Add a convenience script which opens the installation guide in lynx.
/etc/motd:
Provide a message with minimal instructions for connecting to internet and inform about the Installation_guide convenience script.
It is enough if one network interface is online, there is no need to wait for all of them.
Without this, when connecting with Wi-Fi and leaving Ethernet disconnected, the network-online.target will get unnecessarily delayed.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/network/20-{ethernet,wirless}.network:
Making sure that systemd-networkd enables DHCP capabilities also for
IPv6 ('DHCP=yes' and unsetting IPv6AcceptRA - see `man 5
systemd.network` for further information).
Closes#23
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/iwd.service:
Adding a symlink to /usr/lib/systemd/system/iwd.service to enable iwd in
airootfs (and thus on the image).
Closes#18
Adding a numerical prefix ('20-') to the ethernet.network and
wireless.network configuration files for systemd-networkd.
This way overriding them can become more predictable e.g. by providing
files with a '30-' prefix.
Closes#13
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/udev/rules.d/81-dhcpcd.rules:
Removing the udev rule for starting dhcpcd@.service on interfaces of the
form eth* and en*.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/systemd/network/{ethernet,wireless}.network:
Adding default DHCP configurations for en*, eth*, wlp* and wlan*
interfaces.
configs/releng/airootfs/etc/resolv.conf:
Adding a symlink from /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf to
/etc/resolv.conf (in airootfs).
configs/releng/airootfs/root/customize_airootfs.sh:
Adding systemd-networkd and systemd-resolved to the list of services
that are being enabled during airootfs customization.
