2017-11-22Add support for removing packages in a subsequent squashfs module Eric Hameleers1-32/+40
A pkglist has a certain syntax: - Lines starting with '#' are considered comments and are ignored. - Empty lines will be ignored. - A line not containing '%' is considered to name a single package to install/upgrade. - Two strings separated by '%' are considered as 'old' and 'new' package where the old package will be upgraded by the new package. This is useful in situations where the package names differ (udev -> eudev). - One string with '%' at the end is considered a package removal request. The string in front of the '%' is the package name to be removed. This syntax was added in liveslak-1.1.9.3.

2017-11-22Add CACert root certificates to the Live OS and browsers Eric Hameleers1-0/+82

2017-09-19Add upslak.sh, a script to tweak the Live USB stick. Eric Hameleers3-11/+950
Purpose: to update the content of a Slackware Live USB stick. upslak.sh accepts the following parameters: -b|--nobackup Do not try to backup original kernel and modules. -d|--devices List removable devices on this computer. -h|--help This help. -i|--init <filename> Replacement init script. -k|--kernel <filename> The kernel file (or package). -m|--kmoddir <name> The kernel modules directory (or package). -n|--netsupport Add network boot support if not yet present. -o|--outdev <filename> The device name of your USB drive. -p|--persistence Move persistent data into new Live module. -r|--restore Restore previous kernel and modules. -s|--scan Scan for insertion of new USB device instead of providing a devicename (using option '-o'). -v|--verbose Show verbose messages. -w|--wait<number> Add <number> seconds wait time to initialize USB.
2017-09-19iso2usb.sh - add options to list or scan for removable devices Eric Hameleers1-2/+65
Two new script options were added: -d|--devices List removable devices on this computer. -s|--scan Scan for insertion of new USB device instead of providing a devicename (using option '-o').
2017-09-19iso2usb.sh - some minor tweaks Eric Hameleers1-4/+6
2017-09-19Add dhcpcd to the initrd always Eric Hameleers1-6/+6
Dhcpcd is for NFS root support. Adding it outside of the network kernel module loop allows us to update the kernel modules separately and more easily.
2017-09-19PLASMA5: remove the non-functional Wayland sesion from the dropdown Eric Hameleers1-0/+2
2017-09-19XFCE: remove some more files to keep the ISO file size below limit Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
The XFCE ISO is meant to fit on a CDROM medium. CDROM ISO images must be at most 737.280.000 bytes (703 MB).
2017-09-19plasma5: add new packages for KDE 5_17.09 Eric Hameleers1-0/+3
+ ddcutil + id3lib + kirigami2
2017-09-19multilib: add latest packages Eric Hameleers1-0/+5
+ gc-compat32 + lame-compat32 + libidn2-compat32 + libwebp-compat32 + vulkan-sdk-compat32
2017-09-10Prefer syslinux files available on the computer. Eric Hameleers2-3/+24
We will use our own copy of syslinux files only as a fallback, because it is safer to use the versions of files that come with syslinux on the computer which runs iso2usb.sh.
2017-07-31liveinit: reset freetype hinting params to defaults on every boot Eric Hameleers1-5/+9
2017-07-23Rearrange some variable definitions to create a re-usable block for upslak Eric Hameleers1-8/+10
The 'upslak.sh' script will be added in the near future, it allows (among others) to upgrade the liveslak kernel and its modules on your liveslak USB stick.
2017-07-21New syslinux requirement: disable 64bit feature in mke2fs command Eric Hameleers1-1/+7
See http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Filesystem As of Syslinux 6.03, "pure 64-bits" compression/encryption is not supported. Modern mke2fs creates file systems with the metadata_csum and 64bit features enabled by default. Explicitly disable 64bit feature in the mke2fs command with '-O ^64bit'; otherwise, the syslinux bootloader (>= 6.03) will fail.
2017-07-19Allow syntax 'livemedia=scandev:/path/to/live.iso' Eric Hameleers2-2/+31
Use the 'scandev' keyword instead of specifying an actual partition name if you want liveslak to scan all partitions for the ISO. Use this if you are not sure of the devicename and have no means of figuring it out.
2017-07-19iso2usb.sh: add quotes around $SLISO to allow for spaces in te pathname Eric Hameleers1-4/+4
2017-07-18Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.8.21.1.8.2 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
