2016-05-19slackpkg+: my package repository is no longer hosted on taper but on bear....The URLs mentioning 'taper' instead of 'bear' will still work because the webserver on taper will do automatic redirection to bear. Eric Hameleers1-3/+3
2016-05-18README.txt: the git repository is no longer hosted on taper but on bear. Eric Hameleers1-2/+2
2016-05-18README.txt: small fixes to sync this document with the Wiki version. Eric Hameleers1-5/+7
2016-05-18Git rid of a (harmless) error message during boot. Eric Hameleers1-4/+8
2016-05-17Slackware Live Edition: version 1.0.0....I think this 'liveslak' product is in a pretty stable state now. 1.0.0 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-05-17Call 'depmod' when a loaded optional/addon contains kernel modules. Eric Hameleers2-4/+18
2016-05-17Fix logic errors in 'if' statements when looking for wildcard files. Eric Hameleers1-3/+3
2016-05-17README.txt: mention the new 'ssh' tweak....Allows the user to start the SSH server, now that it is disabled by default. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2016-05-17Disable the SSH daemon by default and use a tweak to start it on demand....The passwords for users 'live' and 'root' are easy to guess. When you use the Slackware Live Edition on a public network, you do not want people to use an exposed SSH login. If you still want to have the SSH daemon enabled on boot, use the 'tweak' boot parameter and provide a 'ssh' value as follows: "tweak=ssh" This can be combined with other tweaks of course, all comma-separated. Eric Hameleers2-1/+6
2016-05-14Update the syslinux and grub help files with the new 'tweaks' option. Eric Hameleers2-4/+8
2016-05-13Bump VERSION to 0.9.1. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-05-13README.txt: added 'tweaks' boot parameter and deprecated 'nga' boot parameter. Eric Hameleers1-2/+4
2016-05-13liveinit: deprecate "nga" boot parameter and add "tweaks" parameter instead....The functionality of the old "nga" parameter is now implemented as a "tweak". Tweaks are customizations that cater to specific hardware needs. Syntax: tweaks=tweak1[,tweak2,[,...]] Example: tweaks=nga,tpb Currently implemented tweaks: - nga => no glamor acceleration (X.Org tweak). - tpb => enable TrackPoint scrolling while holding down middle mouse button. - syn => start the syndaemon for better support of Synaptics touchpads. Eric Hameleers1-11/+68
2016-05-13makemod: add interactive mode (-i switch) to prevent overwriting module file....Default behaviour of makemod is to overwrite the destination squashfs module without asking. When adding the '-i' switch to the 'makemod' command, the script will ask explicitly whether it is allowed to overwrite an existing file. Also added is a '-h' switch which shows help on using the script. Bugfix: add "-noappend" to the squashfs command in the script to avoid adding new data to an existing squashfs module. Eric Hameleers1-3/+55
2016-05-12Fixes for the broken 'load/noload' boot parameters and rootcopy location....Provided by GigglesUK, thanks. Eric Hameleers3-7/+6
2016-05-06README.txt: fixes and updates. Eric Hameleers1-12/+19
2016-05-06iso2usb.sh: script should be able to run on older OS-es too. Eric Hameleers1-2/+6
2016-05-05Slackware Live Edition: version 0.9.0....And it is ready for a stable 1.0.0 version if no further bugs are uncovered. 0.9.0 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-05-05README.txt: suggest 'toram' boot parameter when running a PXE server. Eric Hameleers1-0/+2
2016-05-05Without 'fsid' option nfsd refuses to export the filesystem if it is RAM based....The number '14' used in the script could be any (unique) low-range number. Eric Hameleers1-1/+3
2016-05-05pxeserver: minor polishing. Eric Hameleers1-2/+2
2016-05-05liveinit: allow PXE server to work even when the Live media is copied to RAM. Eric Hameleers1-6/+14
2016-05-05iso2usb.sh: show some progress info when copying files from ISO to USB. Eric Hameleers1-2/+7
2016-05-05XFCE: routed is needed for the PXE server....Packages added: + netkit-ftp + netkit-routed Eric Hameleers1-0/+2
2016-05-05README.txt: update the documentation for the new PXE server functionality. Eric Hameleers3-0/+60
2016-05-05Add PXE server infrastructure....See the README.txt for instructions on how to use the 'pxeserver' script and what it can do for you. Eric Hameleers2-0/+731
2016-05-05Silence one "cd -". Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-05-05liveinit: when network-booting, add MAC address as suffix to the hostname....This default behaviour can be prohibited by applying an extended 'hostname' boot parameter as follows: hostname=your_custom_hostname,fixed The qualifier 'fixed' after the comma will prevent the hostname from being changed to something else than 'your_custom_hostname'. Eric Hameleers1-1/+20
2016-05-05SYSLINUX: add a 'clear screen' command at the top of the syslinux message....Results in a nicer looking welcome screen when you boot the Live OS without the graphical syslinux menu. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-05-05XFCE: add some network tools, remove some entertainment (to stay below 703MB)....Added packages: + bind + dnsmasq + idnkit + traceroute Removed packages: - xfractint - xlockmore - xmms The XFCE ISO has xaos as alternative to xfractint. The xlockmore program is not used anyway (we have xscreensaver). XMMS was a hard call but there's audacious still. In return, you get useful stuff like nslookup and host, and dnsmasq is required by the PXE server (soon to be added). Eric Hameleers2-3/+7
2016-04-29Update the 'timeconfig' script in make_slackware_live.sh, not in liveinit. Eric Hameleers2-2/+9
2016-04-27Do not specify heads/sectors when calling "isohybrid -u"....The resulting ISO will boot on real hardware as well as in virtualizers like QEMU, VirtualBox and VMWare Player, despite the warning shown by isohybrid that the ISO has more than 1024 cilynders and not all BIOSes will be able to boot it. Specifying sectors/heads to stay "standard compliant" will generate ISO files that fail to boot in VirtualBox if the ISO filesize is larger than roughly 1 GB, spitting out the error "VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED". Eric Hameleers1-17/+1
2016-04-27Deal with custom timezones (non-UTC) in KDE4 and PLASMA5. Eric Hameleers2-0/+30
2016-04-24Update syslinux & grub help files with latest boot parameter info. Eric Hameleers5-3/+40
2016-04-24Fix the package list for PLASMA5. Eric Hameleers1-2/+1
2016-04-24make_slackware_live.sh: accept custom ISO filename without full pathname. Eric Hameleers1-3/+3
2016-04-22Do not bail out if there are no X apps in the ISO. Eric Hameleers1-1/+3
2016-04-22iso2usb.sh: fix detection of UEFI support in the ISO image file. Eric Hameleers1-5/+2
2016-04-22liveinit: make the DHCP wait time configurable and set a longer default....New boot parameter: dhcpwait=<numseconds> Maximum wait time for the DHCP client to configure a network interface (new default: 20 seconds, was 10 seconds). Eric Hameleers2-7/+14
2016-04-22make_slackware_live.sh: add parameter to specify custom ISO name....New parameter: -O outfile => Full path to a custom filename for the ISO. Eric Hameleers1-9/+16
2016-04-21Allow CONFFILE to be specified as an environment variable. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-04-20make_slackware_live.sh: fixes for kernel detection & selection on 32bit arch. Eric Hameleers1-8/+26

2016-04-19liveinit: make the udev trigger for net devices more rebust. Eric Hameleers1-10/+21
2016-04-17Add a post-install customization hook to 'setup2hd'....A new file 'setup2hd.local' has been added to the liveslak sources. If you do not touch that one, it will be copied to: /usr/share/${LIVEMAIN}/setup2hd.$DISTRO.sample and serve as just that, a sample script. If on the other hand you rename the file to 'setup2hd.$DISTRO' before generating your ISO image ($DISTRO being the name of your own distro, like 'CINELIVE'), then this file will be installed in the ISO as /usr/share/${LIVEMAIN}/setup2hd.$DISTRO and this will be sourced by 'setup2hd' providing you a custom post-install customization hook for your own Live distro. Usage instructions are inside 'setup2hd.local'. Eric Hameleers3-30/+156
2016-04-15iso2usb.sh: only umount if the directory was actually mounted. Eric Hameleers1-3/+3
2016-04-13iso2usb.sh: use XZ for compressing/decompressing the initrd. Eric Hameleers1-3/+16
