| * | Update the README for liveslak. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-24 | 1 | -1/+30 |
| * | Add 'setup2hd' - this script will install the Live OS to local hard disk....The 'setup2hd' script is a modified version of 'setup' in the Slackware
installer, taken straight from the initrd.
The SOURCE selection has been removed since the script knows where to
find the Live media.
Except for the actual extraction of Slackware Live content to your
hard drive, the other hard disk installation steps are unmodified from
the stock Slackware installer.

| * | Fix fontconfig. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-24 | 1 | -4/+4 |
| * | PLASMA5: removed libproxy since that is now properly done in Slackware. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-24 | 1 | -1/+0 |
| * | Really start Konsole with a login shell. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-22 | 1 | -0/+6 |
| * | Make this chroot code look easier to interpret by the human eye....The script was mixing relative and absolute paths which is confusing.
In the chroot, we do not have to work with relative paths as is the
case with some original Slackware scripts.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-22 | 1 | -11/+11 |
| * | Add a syslinux menu option to boot from local harddisk....No idea how to do this for grub2 though. The Slackware option in the EFI
boot menu "Detect/boot any installed operating system" doesn't work for me.

| * | pklists/plasma5.lst: synced the package list to the latest release. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-21 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| * | New boot parameter "localhd" to initialize RAID/LVM on local harddisks. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-17 | 3 | -15/+35 |
| * | Fix the flow when rsync-ing a remote repository....It is a requirement to have the Slackware mirror available locally in advance.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-16 | 1 | -2/+6 |
| * | Add the liveslak documentation to the ISO image. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-16 | 1 | -0/+3 |
| * | README.txt : documentation for liveslak... first attempt. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-15 | 1 | -0/+533 |
| * | Tweaks and spelling fixes for the syslinux and grub2 help files. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-15 | 2 | -9/+14 |
| * | iso2usb.sh: add a new parameter "-C" for encrypted persistence file....Syntax of the new parameter:
-C|--cryptpersistfile size|perc
Explanation:
Use a LUKS-encrypted 'persistence' file instead of a directory
or an un-encrypted file (which is created using the "-P" parameter).
The filename will be 'persistence.img' just like the unencrypted version.
A numerical size in K,M,G or a percentage of available free space
is needed as input value with the "-C" parameter.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-15 | 1 | -10/+26 |
| * | Enable more customization: configure your own LIVEDE....A new sample configuration file 'make_slackware_live.conf' shows a
commented-out example of how to use the variables LIVEDE, SEQ_CUSTOM
and a function "custom_config()" to create a Slackware Live variant
which is not covered by the available variants SLACKWARE, XFCE, KDE4,
PLASMA5, MATE or CINNAMON.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-15 | 2 | -2/+101 |
| * | liveinit: do not give the OS access to the Live media if "toram" was specified....If we mounted the media partition in the Live OS, an I/O error will
be the result when the user removes the boot media from the computer.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-14 | 1 | -4/+18 |
| * | Download packages from rsync mirror if local repository is empty....This is for package lists in "pkglist/" subdirectory where a 3rd party
repository is the package source.
If the pkglists/*.conf file defines a rsync mirror URL in
variable SL_REPO_URL, then instead of aborting with an error when
the local repository directory (SL_REPO) is empty or non-existing,
the packages will be downloaded from that mirror before continuing.

| * | Update the syslinux and grub help texts. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-14 | 3 | -2/+16 |
| * | Allow other people to add their own custom skel*.txz archives....Anything matching ./skel/skel*.txz will be extracted into the Live ISO's
"/etc/skel/" directory by the "make_slackware_live.sh" script.
This allows other people to add application presets for the "live"
user account.
Feature request by Schmatzler for Cinelerra-CV.

| * | PLASMA5: Do not show the blueman applet, Plasma5 has its own BlueTooth widget. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-13 | 1 | -0/+3 |
| * | liveinit: fix the mount command by removing a superfluous '%'. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-13 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | liveinit: if "toram" was specified, increase the size of the RAM filesystem....Also, make sure that we do not try and make any persistent writes when 'toram'
was specified as a boot parameter, since 'toram' means that the user intends
to remove the boot media afterwards.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-09 | 1 | -1/+9 |
| * | Make X Keyboard configuration work properly....- fix detection of german (de) keyboard layout to configure Compose Key,
- actually use field #6 of the languages file (X Keyboard layout & variant)
when generating the grub and syslinux boot configuration files.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-09 | 3 | -8/+11 |
| * | Copy files from /etc/skel _after_ they become available....This block of code was moved up as part of an earlier attempt to group the
code in more closely-knit blocks.
See commit 4c08b1a2caae4319cd4b97a99a5c387ae86e5fdb .
However, it was moved to far up, so we need to revert.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-09 | 1 | -5/+5 |
| * | If ALSA pipes into PulseAudio, configure a fallback using "sysdefault"....Or else there will not be sound on first boot.
Not so important for Slackware itself, but a Live distro run from
CD or DVD will never have sound.

| * | Slackware Live Edition: version 0.5.1...Contains bugfixes for the Beta 5 release (0.5.0) prior to public release.
0.5.1 | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-06 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | Boot parameter "livemedia=": also support UUID and LABEL....Examples:
+ livemedia=08d500da-9538-435c-94fc-c97b1c96d1b1
+ livemedia=LIVESLAK
+ livemedia=/dev/sde1

| * | Handle in/exclusion of Nvidia drivers more reliably. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-06 | 1 | -27/+14 |
| * | liveinit: better support for german localizations....Based on feedback, use Scroll Lock instead of AltGr as the Compose Key.
Also, use 'de-latin1-nodeadkeys' instead of 'de-latin1' for console keyboard
layout, 'de_DE@euro' instead of 'de_DE.utf8' as language definition and
'nodeadkeys' as the X keyboard variant.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-06 | 2 | -2/+7 |
| * | liveinit: use MARKER instead of INITRD as prefix for message display at boot. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-06 | 2 | -31/+72 |
| * | XFCE: update the package list to match the changes in slackware-current. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-05 | 2 | -4/+1 |
| * | iso2usb.sh: fix a logic error. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-05 | 1 | -4/+8 |
| * | Slackware Live Edition: version 0.5.0 (aka Beta5)...Milestones reached:
- Option to use a loop-mounted file for storing persistence data.
When using 'iso2usb.sh' to copy the ISO content to a USB stick, use
the new '-P' parameter to create and use a container file 'persistence.img'.
Note that the existence of a directory 'persistence' in the root of the
Linux partition of your USB stick still takes precedence over the file
'persistence.img'. So be sure to remove that directory first, if you want
to start using a loop-mounted file for persistence.
- New 'toram' boot option (add the word to the syslinux or grub boot
commandline) allows you to run the Live OS completely in RAM. If you are
booting from a CDROM, it will be ejected at the end of the boot process.
A USB stick can be removed manually after booting Slackware Live Edition.
Further interesting updates:
- A new boot parameter 'blacklist' allows you to blacklist certain
kernel modules while booting. Some people need to blacklist the 'nouveau'
module for instance.
Example: add "blacklist=nouveau" to the syslinux or grub boot commandline.
Multiple modules can be specified, separated by commas.
- The XDM login screen now has a button "console" which lets you drop to a
console login if you have no need of a graphical login or don't want to
start an X Session (relevant for the XFCE and MATE variants).
And many other small improvements/bugfixes to the scripts as well of course.

| * | Cosmetics: better grouping of code; additional comments for better readability. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-03 | 1 | -28/+45 |
| * | Do not run the risk of creating a dangling symlink. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-03 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | Live init: add 'blacklist' bootparam to prevent loading of kernel driver(s)....Any kernel modules mentioned here will be added to the modprobe blacklist.
This will help out people who need to blacklist the nouveau driver,
for instance if they have a too-new computer.
Syntax:
blacklist=mod1[,mod2[,...]]
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-02 | 1 | -0/+15 |
| * | Live init: eject the Live CDROM/DVD medium after loading modules into RAM....Only relevant if the user added the 'toram' boot option.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-02 | 1 | -0/+3 |
| * | Live init: move the module loading code into a single function call....This gets rid of quite some code duplication.
| Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-02 | 1 | -33/+33 |
| * | XDM: add a 'console' button for easy access to a console login session. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-02 | 1 | -2/+5 |
| * | Don't abort if the udev rules file is not present in the initrd. | Eric Hameleers | 2016-02-02 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | Live init: add 'toram' boot parameter....This allows the user to remove the bootable Live media afterwards, because
the complete OS will been copied to RAM and run from there when adding
the boot commandline parameter 'toram'.
This feature works nicely for the XFCE ISO since that one is fairly small.
Untested for the bigger ISOs; you need more patience while the squashfs
modules are being copied to RAM, and available RAM decreases a lot.
Realistically speaking, your computer would need 1 or 2 GB of RAM for
the XFCE variant, 2 or 4 GB RAM for the Mate variant, and 4 to 8 GB RAM
for the KDE4 and Plasma5 variants.
