2019-05-05 | upslak.sh: use the OS to find partition names...This should allow usage of external storage devices like SD cards,
whose partition naming conventions are different from generic USB devices.
E.g. /dev/mmcblk0p1 is the first partition of /dev/mmcblk0 (note the 'p').

2019-04-23 | Make the '-m' commandline switch more universal...The '-m' parameter of the 'make_slackware_live.sh' script allows you
to add more packages to the Live ISO without modifying any of the script's
"SEQ_*" package sequence variables.
However, the script would prepend "pkglist:" to the argument value, which
is redundant since 'pkglist' is the default anyway.
By removing this prepend string we can now allow a syntax like this:
"-m local:foo" to add a series of packages in the subdirectory 'foo'
of the 'local' (or 'local64') directory more easily.

2019-03-17 | upslak.sh: do not presume that people build overlayfs as a module...The script will now only fail if you have zero modules in your tree.
I presume (!) that this corner case will never occur. In any case, I will
not support it.

2018-09-09 | Slackware Live Edition: version 1.3.0...The fairly large version bump is warranted because this is the first
release to support zstd compression. The resulting ISO will boot to
a usable desktop environment almost twice as fast as previous releases
of liveslak. THe runtime behaviour will also be a lot snappier.
This should make a lot of people happy.
Note that I have to keep the XFCE ISO xz-compressed to keep its size
below 703 MB. The other ISOs will use zstd compression, adding roughly
10% to the ISO size but speeding up the Live OS with 60% or more.

2018-09-04 | Make the default language of the Live ISO configurable...Added a new parameter to 'make_slackware_live.sh' script:
-l <localization>
For example, create a liveslak ISO with dutch as the default language
instead of US english:
# ./make_slackware_live.sh -l nl
Using this parameter you can onfigure a different default language
for the resulting ISO image. The default localization if you do not
supply this parameter remains "us" as before.
The boot menu offers a selection of other languages/localizations
to pick from (currently you can select any of 'be br da gb de de_ch es
fr fr_ch it ja nl pt ru se us') but now you can create your own brand
of liveslak ISO with your own language as the default.

2018-09-04 | XFCE: move compiler related packages from 'min' to 'noxbase'...With the goal to make the 'min' module smaller so that potentially
we can compress it with zstd instead of xz and thus minimize the size
increase of the resulting squashfs module (~10%).
Quick benchmark with just the 'min' module zstd-compressed and the rest
xz-compressed shows more than 10% reduction in the boot-up time of the
XFCE Live OS. Unfortunately, this will add 20 MB to the ISO size which
will have to come from somewhere in order to keep the ISO size below
703 MB.
