* Slackware Live Edition: version 1.7.0.11.7.0.1 Eric Hameleers2023-08-151-1/+1

* Fix broken support for Ventoy on UEFI computers Eric Hameleers2023-08-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Changes in Slackware-current in March and May 2023 broke support for detection of Ventoy disk on UEFI computers. Liveslak's initrd needed to have efivarfs module added, so that /sys/firmware/efi/efivars can be mounted by the live init script. With kernel 6.x the content of what's found under efivars has changed - instead of being represented as a directory with the efi datastructures as files, liveslak now needs to deal with a single file instead and find the offset in there.
* Make kdesu work again with sudo backend (using live password) Eric Hameleers2023-08-081-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For kdesu to work with the sudo backend in KDE5 with newer versions of sudo (since 2022), we need to disable use_pty for kdesu. KDE5 fixed this in git on 04-aug-2023, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452532 but it does not hurt to implement the workaround in liveslak, as it helps to support older KDE releases. This is the KDE commit message, see https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kdesu/-/commit/732dd812d67c7fa62bd187c1171950ca85259b0b : Recent versions of sudo have use_pty enabled by default, which means that sudo creates a PTY for starting the user process inside after successful authentication. This PTY inherits the configuration of sudo's TTY, but later changes are not transferred. Make sure that echo is already disabled when sudo is started, as disabling it later has no effect on the nested PTY.

* SLACKWARE: the fulll distro no longer fits on a DVD Eric Hameleers2023-06-041-1/+3
| | | | | | Therefore, pruning starts for the SLACKWARE Live ISO. Too bad really. Removed are some packages that are relatively big and arbitrarily not used that much (quite a personal opinion of course).
* DAW, LEAN, SLACKWARE: more detail in KDE Plasma System Info Eric Hameleers2023-06-021-0/+6
| | | | | | Even when running -current, the KDE Info Center will show Slackware's stable version number. Therefore, add a line of text informing about the development status of Slackware -current when the ISO is based on it.

* When SL_VERSION equals 'current' it will never match a numerical value Eric Hameleers2023-01-111-1/+1
| | | | So we do a string comparison instead.

* Full support for Ventoy; encrypted OS persistence/homedirectory for ISO boot Eric Hameleers2022-08-151-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New features: Ventoy is now fully supported. Liveslak implements the "Ventoy-compatible" guideline. There is nothing you have to do, this works out of the box. When you are booting from an ISO file (whether via Ventoy, or through your own hand-crafted Grub menu entry, or Windows BCD), Operating System persistence and an encrypted homedirectory are now supported, as well as the ability to load additional live modules (as 'addons' or 'optional') that are not part of the ISO. All of this is possible without the need for any modification to the ISO image. The configuration is stored in a file next to the ISO. A new script, "isocomp.sh" aka the ISO Companion script, has been added. Like with all of my scripts, it accepts a "--help" parameter which will show you how to use it. This script allows you to: - create encrypted containers for OS persistence and a persistent homedirectory (actually not just for /home but you can create as many containers as fit on the disk and mount them wherever you want) - size extension of existing encrypted containers if they threaten to run out of space - creating a secondary liveslak root on the disk partition where you can add more (optional/add-on) live modules that you need in the Live OS but are not contained in the ISO The configuration of these new features is stored in a file with the same name and full path as the ISO file but with a ".cfg" file extension instead of ".iso". The "isocomp.sh" script manages this configuration file for you, but you can safely edit and modify it manually if you want to. The "isocomp.sh" script will leave your customizations alone. Here is an example of such a configuration file; it is copied from my own Ventoy disk, for a Slackware LEAN Live ISO image: LIVESLAKROOT=/liveslak LUKSVOL=/liveslak/myhome.icc:/home ISOPERSISTENCE=/liveslak/persistence.icc TZ=Europe/Amsterdam LIVE_HOSTNAME=zelazny I added the variables "TZ" and "LIVE_HOSTNAME" manually by opening the configuration file in an editor. The following variables are supported in the isocomp configuration file, but not managed by "isocomp.sh"; they all correspond to liveslak boot parameters by the way: BLACKLIST, KEYMAP, LIVE_HOSTNAME, LOAD, LOCALE, NOLOAD, RUNLEVEL, TWEAKS, TZ and XKB. The value of the "LUKSVOL" variable can hold multiple "containerfile:mountpoint" definitions, separated by commas. The variable "LIVESLAKROOT" defines the root of a secondary liveslak directory tree on your disk.

* Add 'waste' trimming form, less intrusive than 'bloat' Eric Hameleers2022-07-101-6/+9
| | | | | In particular, trimming 'waste' will not remove lots of dynamic and static libraries, which 'bloat' will do for you.

* Add an (optional) basic firewall configuration to setup2hd Eric Hameleers2021-12-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The firewall will be configured and installed only when you use setup2hd to install the Live OS to your hard drive. The scripts are not particular to Slackware Live; you can easily copy the resulting files /usr/sbin/myfwconfig, /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall and /var/lib/pkgtools/setup/setup.firewall out of the installed system and use them anywhere on a Slackware-compatible OS. - The 'myfwconfig' script will ask a few simple questions and generate the ipv4 and ipv6 configuration in /etc/firewall/. - The 'rc.firewall' script will load/save its iptables/ip6tables configuration from /etc/firewall/ files. - The 'setup.firewall' script is a convenient way to call the firewall configurator from pkgtools or during Slackware's installation to harddisk.

* liveslak: add Secure Boot support to all 64bit ISOs Eric Hameleers2021-11-081-2/+193
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Read the updates in the README for more background and guidance. User notice: As a one-time action the very first time you boot a Secure Boot enabled liveslak ISO, you will have to enroll the liveslak certificate (/EFI/BOOT/liveslak.der) with which the Slackware boot-up binaries (grub and kernel) were signed into your computer's MOK (Machine Owner Key database). This enrollment request will show on-screen during initial boot, just follow the prompts to 'enroll from disk'. Afterwards the computer will reboot and from then on, your liveslak will boot without any user intervention on your Secure Boot computer. Note: liveslak uses Fedora's initial boot loader (the 'shim') which has been signed by Microsoft. In future we may get our own signed shim for liveslak and/or Slackware, but don't hold your breath.
