| 2017-09-19 | Add upslak.sh, a script to tweak the Live USB stick....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.

-s|--scan Scan for insertion of new USB device instead of
providing a devicename (using option '-o').

| 2017-09-19 | iso2usb.sh - some minor tweaks | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -4/+6 |
| 2017-09-19 | Add dhcpcd to the initrd always...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.

| 2017-09-19 | XFCE: remove some more files to keep the ISO file size below limit...The XFCE ISO is meant to fit on a CDROM medium.
CDROM ISO images must be at most 737.280.000 bytes (703 MB).

| 2017-09-10 | Prefer syslinux files available on the computer....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.

| 2017-07-31 | liveinit: reset freetype hinting params to defaults on every boot | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -5/+9 |
| 2017-07-23 | Rearrange some variable definitions to create a re-usable block for upslak...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.

| 2017-07-21 | New syslinux requirement: disable 64bit feature in mke2fs command...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.

| 2017-07-19 | Allow syntax 'livemedia=scandev:/path/to/live.iso'...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.

| 2017-07-18 | Run a 'slackpkg new-config' just to be safe...Normally there should not be .new files, but recently there was a bug
in ap/cgmanager where the .new files were not moved to their final spot.

| 2017-07-18 | Document the 'debug=<number>' boot parameter...'2' enables verbose script execution;
'4' dumps you into a debug shell right before the switch_root.

| 2017-06-16 | Add 'sdhci-pci:sdhci-acpi' to KMODS...Adding 'sdhci-pci:sdhci-acpi' to KMODS is needed to make liveslak boot
off a Dell e7440 with O2 Micro, Inc. Integrated MMC/SD Controller.

| 2017-05-10 | Also remove the now unnecessary eliloconfig.patch for -current | Eric Hameleers | 2 | -26/+0 |
| 2017-05-10 | In -current the hardcoded /mnt in initrd and eliloconfig was fixed...Therefore we need to update the way we patch eliloconfig in -current
and the installer scripts. Patching is still needed for Slackware 14.2.
| Eric Hameleers | 1 | -5/+14 |
| 2017-05-09 | Added some packages from 'alien' repository to the PLASMA5 ISO...These were added to the package list:

- nodejs (a new build dep for chromium)
- palemoon (as a leaner alternative to firefox)

| 2017-05-09 | eliloconfig patch needs to be made release-specific...The script started to diverge in -current,
and the patch would no longer apply.

| 2017-04-30 | Add boot-time tweak 'nsh' to disable new sub-pixel hinting in freetype...Freetype has enabled a 'new style' of sub-pixel hinting, based on the
Infinality patch but simplified for speed.
Some people feel that this new type of hinting is resulting in worse font
rendering than with the old auto-hinter built into Freetype.
The new tweak 'nsh' effectively disables the new type of sub-pixel hinting
and makes Freetype fall back to the old behaviour.
Usage: add "tweaks=nsh" to the boot commandline of the Live OS.

| 2017-04-17 | Get Slackware packages from remote mirror in absense of local copy...Previously, the 'make_slackware_live.sh' script would exit if no local
copy of a Slackware package mirror was available. Now, the script will
download a copy from a default rsync mirror (osuosl.org) instead,
and then proceed with creating a Live ISO.
Another rsync URI can be specified in the .conf file if you want.
