2021-10-29DAW, STUDIOWARE: enable full preemptive mode via kernel boot option Eric Hameleers1-11/+12
Using rc.local to post-configure the kernel was nice, but this solution is cleaner and less lines of code.
2021-10-28Slackware Live Edition: version 1.4.0.11.4.0.1 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
Micro version bump for the DAW Live ISO, which will get a full pre-emptive kernel.
2021-10-28Use the installed kernel-modules instead of looking (again) for the pkg Eric Hameleers1-20/+6
The old way was not wrong, until I added the possibility to liveslak to use a package in ./testing . This part of the code needed an overhaul as a result of that, and now it looks cleaner than before.
2021-10-28DAW: enable full pre-emptive mode in the kernel Eric Hameleers1-0/+10
Note: this was enabled in kernel 5.14.15 in Slackware-current. On older / non-preemptive kernels the above will do nothing.

2021-10-26liveinit.tpl: add support for persistence on local non-live harddisks Eric Hameleers1-35/+160
The syntax for the 'persistence' boot parameter has been extended. The persistence directory/container no longer needs to be in the root of the filesystem; you can specify an absolute path. Additionally, you can specify the partition containing the filesystem on which the persistence is located, or simply specify 'scandev', to request that liveslak tries to find the partition for you: persistence=/dev/sdX:/path/to/mypersistence persistence=scandev:/path/to/mypersistence In addition, a UUID or LABEL value of the filesystem will be accepted: persistence=cd68b6f5-5b5a-4d27-9649-7827489f94a5:/path/to/mypersistence This functionality will be useful if you need the persistence directory or container to be located somewhere else than on the Live USB stick, for instance on a local hard disk partition. Useful for network (PXE) boot because the overlayfs does not support a writable upper layer of your live filesystem over NFS. If you still want to offer persistence to users of PXE-booted Slackware Live, you can now use the local harddisk partitions or a local USB stick for persistence.

2021-03-06Change domain 'example.net' to 'home.arpa' following RFC8375 Eric Hameleers3-4/+4
Excerpt from RFC 8375 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8375): Users and devices within a home network (hereafter referred to as "homenet") require devices and services to be identified by names that are unique within the boundaries of the homenet [RFC7368]. The naming mechanism needs to function without configuration from the user. While it may be possible for a name to be delegated by an ISP, homenets must also function in the absence of such a delegation. This document reserves the name 'home.arpa.' to serve as the default name for this purpose, with a scope limited to each individual homenet.
