2018-09-01When installing local packages from subdir, use 'upgradepkg'...The old use of 'installpkg' prevented upgrading an already present package while 'upgradepkg --install-new' allows for all options. Eric Hameleers1-1/+2
2018-09-01XFCE: update the package list so that the ISO stays below CDROM size...Also, split 'x_base' into 'noxbase' and 'x_base' so that in future we can create a 'rescue' option using just 'min' and 'noxbase'. Eric Hameleers4-136/+142
2018-09-01PLASMA5: do not add 'kde-wallpapers' to the ISO...These wallpapers don't really add value to the ISO and when using the new supported compressor 'zstd' we need to trim the ISO size down to the max size of a DVD. The zstd compression creates ISOs that are ~10% larger than when using xz. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2018-08-26Add zstd compression support for squashfs modules...This will provide compression ratios approaching those of xz, while achieving decompression rations similar to lzo (5 times faster than xz). We will need to have a zstd package in Slackware first, and then rebuild squashfs-tools to add zstd support. Eric Hameleers2-10/+35
2018-08-26Rename some variables in anticipation of adding zstd compression support Eric Hameleers1-7/+7

2018-06-30New eliloconfig in Slackware 14.2 no longer needs our patch...The elilo package in Slackware 14.2's ./patches has our liveslak patch to eliloconfig already incorporated. Eric Hameleers1-25/+0

2018-06-25Slackware Live Edition: version 1.2.01.2.0 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2018-06-25Use correct 'ktown' URL in slackpkgplus.conf...If we use 'testing' repository to get the Plasma 5 packages, then the slackpkg/slackpkg+ configuration should reference that 'testing' URL as well, to avoid confusion when the user runs 'slackpkg upgrade-all'. Eric Hameleers1-4/+15
2018-06-24Slackpkg started requiring opt-in to using it on slackware-current Eric Hameleers1-0/+6
2018-06-24PLASMA5: add missing packages and switch to 'testing' repository Eric Hameleers2-1/+7
2018-06-15Add support for on-disk OS configuration file...The configuration file must be in the liveslak main directory ('/liveslak' by default) and be called 'DISTRO_os.cfg' where DISTRO is the lower-case name of the distro ('slackware' by default). The following variables can be defined in the configuration file, one per line, in the format VAR=value: BLACKLIST, INIT, KEYMAP, LIVE_HOSTNAME, LOAD, LOCALE, LUKSVOL, NOLOAD, RUNLEVEL, TWEAKS, TZ, XKB. Since the configuration file is sourced by the live init script, it is OK to have comments in it that are prefixed with '#'. Eric Hameleers4-1/+52

2018-03-15XFCE: more tricks to reduce ISO size. Eric Hameleers1-2/+5
2018-03-15XFCE: rename xbase.lst to x_base.lst...The order in which the squashfs modules were created should be respected when they are re-assembled to an overlay filesystem. The assembly is done in lexicographical order - therefore xbase.lst needed to be renamed to x_base.lst. Failing to adhere to the original assembly order causes weirdness. In my case it meant that the complete directory /usr/share/applications as contained in xapbase.lst was invisible in the resulting overlay, causing near-empty menus in XFCE. Also added several packages to x_base.lst that are now part of Slackware. Eric Hameleers2-2/+7
2018-03-15multilib: refresh the package list. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2018-03-14Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.9.71.1.9.7 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2018-03-12Add user 'live' to group 'input'...Group membership of 'input' is needed to access input devices that are exposed through libinput (touch devices are only exposed through libinput) and seems to be a requirement for Wayland. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2018-03-12Remove unneeded firmware files to reduce the XFCE ISO size Eric Hameleers1-0/+4
2018-03-12XFCE: keep ISO size below 737.280.000 bytes (703 MB)...ghostscript is again removed to make room for new additions in -current. Eric Hameleers2-1/+7
2018-03-12PLASMA5: add applications-extra:falkon...Falkon is the renamed qupzilla browser. Eventually, falkon will find its way into Applications. Consider this a preview version. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2018-03-09README.txt needed an update...- Explanation of the partition layout of a USB stick when created with iso2usb.sh - Updated URLS - Many small fixes, mostly typos Eric Hameleers1-14/+27

2018-01-19Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.9.51.1.9.5 Eric Hameleers1-2/+2
2018-01-19alien pkglist: added acpilight and poppler-qt5...- acpilight is able to control the backlight brightness of a laptop screen, this will be used by the Lumina Desktop if present. - poppler-qt5 is a new dependency for Lumina Desktop in case you do not have my Plasma5 'ktown' packages installed, specifically its poppler package which already contains the required Qt5 libraries. Eric Hameleers1-1/+3
2017-12-27Make the 'make-grub.sh' script compatible with grub-2.02...In particular, it seems that including the 'ahci' grub module caused failure on boot, because the actual Live USB stick would not be detected and the local harddisk would be detected as (ahci0). The script has also been enhanced so that the 'grub-mkimage' commandline will not get fed any non-existing module, which would otherwise abort the command. Eric Hameleers1-8/+18

2017-11-22Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.9.31.1.9.3 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2017-11-22Add support for removing packages in a subsequent squashfs module...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. Eric Hameleers1-32/+40
2017-11-22PLASMA5: set QtWebkit as the Konqueror rendering engine if available Eric Hameleers1-0/+11

2017-11-22XFCE: some pruning was required to make the ISO fit on a CDROM medium Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2017-11-22Add CACert root certificates to the Live OS and browsers...CACert should be a trusted CA to avoid discomforting warnings about 'untrusted' certificate when visiting my future blog location. Eric Hameleers1-0/+82
