2024-06-12 | Really fix usage of 'magick' instead of 'convert'...This silences the warnings in -current about depreciation of 'convert'

2024-05-21 | Try fixing the umount of $LIVE_ROOTDIR...Somehow gpg-agent is triggered (perhaps running mkinitrd?)
and that plus child processes keboxd and scdaemon keep the mount point open.

2023-12-24 | XDM: choose different graphical sessions using function keys...The XDM man page is a bit vague about this functionality but the default
Xresources file which ships with xdm has the support added.
I had removed it for liveslak but added it back in part now.
When entering your credentials and pressing ENTER, still the default X11
session will be started. But now instead of ENTER, when you press:
F1: failsafe session will be started.
F2: kde session will be started.
F3: xfce session will be started.
F4: fvwm2 session will be started.
F5: fluxbox session will be started.

2023-09-17 | Fix pxeserver and expand its functionality...- PXE boot of a UEFI computer finally works.
Note that if it does not work for you out of the box, look at the section
where a section of 'dhcp-match' and 'dhcp-boot' lines is commented out.
If you remove the comment characters from these 8 lines and instead,
add a comment character '#' in front of the 'dhcp-match' and 'pxe-service'
lines a bit higher up, your UEFI computer might actually succeed in
booting over the network.
- Optionally, the script can hide its PXE clients behind a NAT router
in case external network is not accessible via normal routing.
- Correct nmcli syntax is being used now...
- Network interface will be de-configured when the script ends, likewise
any NAT iptables rules will be removed afterwards.

2023-09-17 | Fix UEFI boot when ISO was dd-ed to USB thumbdrive...Since early 2019, when you dd-ed or cp-ed a live ISO directly to a USB stick,
and you booted from this stick on a UEFI computer, you would end up in the
GRUB commandline, because $prefix would not be defined and GRUB would be
unable to find its files.
My 2019 modification fixed PXE boot but broke this specific case of UEFI boot.
And now it has finally been fixed after I had a brain fart.

2023-09-10 | Several enhancements to LUKS containers and their support scripts...To name the most important:
- The filesystem inside the containers is no longer limited to ext4 and can
now be btrfs, ext2, ext4, f2fs, jfs or xfs. The scripts 'iso2usb.sh' and
'isocomp.sh' now support this filesystem choice via a new '-F' switch.
- The 'upslak.sh' script can now extend the size of your home and persistence
container files, in case you run out of storage there.
- The internal functions used in 'iso2usb.sh' 'isocomp.sh' and 'upslak.sh'
are mostly unified now, and I intend to split all functions off into a
separate file which makes maintenance as well as adding new functionaliy
easier.
- The 'upslak.sh' script will now create a 'kernelmodules' squashfs module
and copies it to liveslak's 'addons' directory after updating the boot
kernel on the USB stick and the kernel-modules inside the initrd image.
This way, you no longer end up with a broken Live OS if you forgot to
install a Slackware kernel-modules package inside the persistent Live OS
prior to running 'upslak.sh' with the '-k' and '-m' parameters.
In addition, the README.txt was updated with these enhancements so that
the liveslak documentation is again completely up to date.
