2017-01-23pkglists: add packages that are new to slackware-current. Eric Hameleers3-1/+7
2017-01-23The liveinit script is a template too and cannot be used as-is. Eric Hameleers2-1/+1
This file was forgotten in the previous commit. It has now also been given a '.tpl' extension in the liveslak sources, to indicate that it is a template and not usable as-is. The 'make_slackware_live.sh' script parses the template file and performs a series of variable substitutions to generate the final 'init' script inside the initrd of the ISO image.
2017-01-23Make it obvious that some scripts are templates and cannot be used as-is. Eric Hameleers3-2/+2
This affects: - pxeserver - setup2hd Both have been renamed with extension '.tpl' as indication that they are templates. The 'make_slackware_live.sh' script performs a series of substitutions on them to produce the actual scripts inside the ISO.
2017-01-23Add '2017' to the copyright statements. Eric Hameleers5-5/+5
2017-01-23setup2hd: more polishing of the Slackware installer scripts. Eric Hameleers1-2/+16
Hard-coded '/mnt' in the Slackware installer scripts is an ongoing annoyance. With the modifications in this commit I was able to successfully install Slackware Live to a UEFI computer using 'setup2hd'.
2017-01-22setup2hd: fix a copy/paste error. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2017-01-22setup2hd: patch (e)liloconfig on the target to remove hardcoded /mnt Eric Hameleers1-0/+7
2017-01-10Add 'ntfs' module to the initrd for mounting NTFS partitions (read-only). Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
This should allow people to store the ISO on a NTFS filesystem and then use something like grub or pxelinux to boot liveslak from that ISO file using the 'livemedia=/dev/sdX:/path/to/slackwarelive.iso' syntax.
2017-01-02DLACK: improve first-boot experience.dlack Eric Hameleers1-0/+8
Disable two processes that consume time or are just annoying on first boot: - do not start gnome-initial-setup; - do not let systemd re-generate dynamic linker cache on boot.
2017-01-01DLACK: Add console keymap default setting for localectl. Eric Hameleers1-0/+2
In the hope that this makes gnome-terminal start finally.
2017-01-01DLACK: create a default config for localectl. Eric Hameleers2-0/+3
2017-01-01DLACK: ibus needs to be installed before gdm to prevent an error. Eric Hameleers1-1/+2
2017-01-01DLACK: updated the package list. Eric Hameleers1-0/+4
2016-12-31pkglist for dlackware: use '/var/cache/liveslak' to store repository mirrors. Eric Hameleers2-2/+2
2016-12-28pkglists: add alien's restricted repository. Eric Hameleers3-3/+9
Add packages from the restricted repository to the PLASMA5 ISO: - ffmpeg - handbrake - lame - libdvdcss - vlc Also, add 'keepassx' to alien's regular package list.
2016-12-28pkglist configuration: use '/var/cache/liveslak' to store repository mirrors. Eric Hameleers8-8/+20
2016-12-16(e)liloconfig: only try to patch these scripts if they are contained in the ISO. Eric Hameleers1-2/+6
2016-12-16(e)liloconfig: only try to patch these scripts if they are contained in the ISO. Eric Hameleers1-2/+6
2016-12-15DLACK: add Dlackware as a DE choice when generating the ISO. Eric Hameleers5-3/+290
Dlackware is Slackware with systemd and Gnome3. An interesting experiment. Thanks to bartgymnast of the Dlackware team who provided the patches. Note: at this moment, this is pre-alpha quality. - The default root and live passwords do not work so you'll have to add boot parameter 'livepw=XXXXXXXX' and think of a strong password that passes the PAM strength test. - The Gnome3 environment does not show an application menu. - The Dlackware package quality is sub-standard. Notably it will mess with the buildhost machine's password database and install 64bit stuff into /usr/lib
2016-12-15pkglists: add 'bash-completion' to the 'slackextra' package list. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2016-12-13MATE: libpeas is a new package in Mate 1.17. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2016-12-13Make it possible to replace a package instead of simply upgrading it. Eric Hameleers1-5/+15
Example: Replace eudev with systemd (actual request made by Dlackware). The package list should then contain the following line: eudev%systemd I.e. the package to be replaced, followed by a '%', followed by the name of the package that replaces the original. This is similar syntax to the way in which you tell upgradepkg to replace one package with another bearing a different name.
2016-12-13Make setting of the root & live user's password a bit safer. Eric Hameleers1-2/+2
Additionally, this should work better with a PAM based system.
2016-12-11Cinnamon: update the package list and repository info for Cinnamon 3.2. Eric Hameleers2-4/+12
2016-12-10libXfont2 was added to Slackware recently. Eric Hameleers2-0/+2
2016-12-10PLASMA5: gpgme and syntax-highlighting added to the package list. Eric Hameleers2-0/+5
ALso, gpgme is a new dependency for LXQT since that uses Frameworks.
2016-12-08Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.5.1.1.5 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-12-08README.txt: fix the URL of the Porteus web site. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-11-30pkglists/cinnamon.conf: add a remote rsync URI for the cinnamon repository. Eric Hameleers1-1/+6
2016-11-30make_slackware_live.sh: liloconfig is in /sbin - not in /usr/sbin . Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-11-29README.txt: mention harddisk installation option in the Preface. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-11-16(e)liloconfig need patching to make them work properly on Slackware Live. Eric Hameleers3-1/+50
The cause is the use of hard-coded '/mnt' instead of using $T_PX variable. In Slackware's official installer, the computer's hard disk is always mounted at /mnt so that there is no apparent issue. Slackware Live's 'setup2hd' however, needs to mount the hard disk on /setup2hd because /mnt is already used.
2016-11-16The new release of LXQT requires modifications in the package set. Eric Hameleers3-0/+8
Added deps: - libstatgrab - muparser New in LXQT: - lxqt-l10n - pavucontrol-qt The 'libtinfo' package is only adding some symlinks that some programs look for.
2016-11-16MATE: switch back to a proper repository URL. Eric Hameleers1-5/+2
2016-11-09XFCE: remove unused glibc locales to conserve space. Eric Hameleers2-0/+16
The XFCE ISO is below 737.280.000 bytes again. Also, the 'vim' package fits in now, which makes gvim a lot more functional.
2016-11-09Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.4.1.1.4 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-11-09iso2usb.sh: show a bit more version information during a refresh cycle. Eric Hameleers1-2/+14
2016-11-09Make the name 'min' of the minimal package list customizable. Eric Hameleers3-7/+22
The 'min' package list contains the generic kernel. This package list is special because the 'make_slackware_live.sh' script will also take care of the ISO boot configuration while processing it. A custom Live OS may want to use a custom filename instead of "min.lst", so the variable $MINLIST was created for that purpose.
2016-11-09PLASMA5: use the 'latest' instead of the 'testing' repository. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-11-09sshfs was added to Slackware-current. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
2016-11-08iso2usb.sh: get rid of hard-coded pathnames and use $PATH to find programs. Eric Hameleers1-26/+28
2016-08-22Slackware Live Edition: version 1.1.3.1.1.3 Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-08-22PLASMA5: add 'VARIANT' variable; sync package list to the 'testing' repo. Eric Hameleers2-2/+10
The 'VARIANT' variable allows switching between the 'latest' and 'testing' repositories. The 'testing' repsitory will focus on stuff which is not ready for prime-time, such as wayland, logind (part of systemd) and pam.
2016-08-22Added package lists and repository info for the LXQT desktop environment. Eric Hameleers4-0/+145
Note that the 'alien.*' package list which is used for the PLASMA5 ISO also adds the full LXQT desktop. LXQT has a lot of dependencies (covered in the 'lxqtdeps.lst) but almost all of these dependencies are already part of PLASMA5 anyway. The two 'lxqt.*' and 'lxqtdeps.*' package lists are meant for people who do not want to create a PLASMA5 ISO (and therefore do not want to use the 'alien.lst') but want an ISO focusing on LXQT without all the plasma5 or alien stuff.
2016-08-22alien.lst: added freerdp, gst-plugins-libav and the lumina & lxqt desktops. Eric Hameleers1-0/+41
2016-08-22Remove the confusing Openbox entry from xsessions menu if present. Eric Hameleers1-1/+3
2016-08-15iso2usb.sh: unsquashfs is not always needed. Eric Hameleers1-3/+9
2016-08-15liveinit: sort the modules found with 'find' to assure correct loading order. Eric Hameleers1-1/+1
2016-08-13make_slackware_live.sh: Removing old stuff should happen at the beginning. Eric Hameleers1-8/+8
2016-08-09Live OS: enable CUPS network browsing by default. Eric Hameleers1-0/+1
This makes remote CUPS printers available locally.
