SeTEFI: Patched to remove extra whitespace from lsblk output.
Thanks to Didier Spaier.
+--------------------------+
Sat Dec 7 02:24:58 UTC 2019
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz:
/sbin/probe: adjust to newer "cryptsetup status" output. This fixes all LVM
volumes being listed twice.
+--------------------------+
Fri Dec 6 20:16:45 UTC 2019
repack_installer.SlackBuild: Added.
This repacks the installer from the tree found under
$TMP/build-slackware-installer, allowing changes to be made and tested.
build_installer.sh: Trivial typo fix - add a space in a comment.
+--------------------------+
Sat Nov 30 21:01:01 UTC 2019
Use $NUMJOBS with busybox make install.
+--------------------------+
Wed Aug 21 18:57:50 UTC 2019
Properly install libcryptsetup since it has moved under /usr.
Thanks to formalist for the bug report.
+--------------------------+
Mon Aug 5 07:05:18 UTC 2019
Don't use -s (--stupid) when installing syslinux. This loads much faster and
_probably_ won't increase the probability of boot failure. But, if it fails
let me know.
+--------------------------+
Mon Jul 29 21:51:59 UTC 2019
Include libraries from the argon2 and json-c packages, needed by cryptsetup.
+--------------------------+
Fri Jul 12 18:42:02 UTC 2019
build-installer.sh: Add cqhci.ko kernel module.
Thanks to Pomme Raccoon.
+--------------------------+
Wed Jul 10 22:33:27 UTC 2019
/sbin/reboot: shell script to call the real reboot with "reboot -f" to
prevent a reboot hang after installation.
+--------------------------+
Sat Apr 27 19:53:20 UTC 2019
build_installer.sh: remove final dangling symlink check. This gets into
a filesystem loop that takes a bit of time, and has never turned up any
dangling symlinks that actually need attention.
+--------------------------+
Sun Mar 3 19:17:45 UTC 2019
Update busybox to 1.30.1.
+--------------------------+
Sat Jan 26 19:58:30 UTC 2019
Fixed detecting FAT/NTFS partitions on UEFI systems.
+--------------------------+
Fri Jan 25 23:06:42 UTC 2019
Updated the elilo bootloaders in /EFI/BOOT which were older versions
(possibly with the 8MB kernel size limit?)
+--------------------------+
Thu Jan 24 20:01:25 UTC 2019
SeTEFI: If the kernel doesn't detect efi, bail.
SeTEFI: Detect EFI partition using lsblk. Thanks to Didier Spaier.
+--------------------------+
Tue Jan 22 22:42:47 UTC 2019
Before running the CONFIGURE section, create bind mounts to /dev, /proc, and
/sys. This is useful for chrooting and setting up boot loaders.
Also add "mkbindmounts" command to do this manually for anything that's
mounted on /mnt. This avoids having to type these commands when using the
installer for system rescue purposes.
+--------------------------+
Sun Jan 6 19:54:10 UTC 2019
Account for .x64 suffix on /boot/config-* files with x86_64 when installing
the config files and /boot/config symlink. Thanks to Edward Grattan.
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 28 05:31:04 UTC 2018
Activate LVM volumes at boot, not only when setup is run.
Make /etc/mtab a symlink to /proc/mounts on the installer.
On a freshly installed system, make /etc/mtab a symlink to /proc/mounts.
Include f2fs-tools on the installer.
Support installing on F2FS partitions.
+--------------------------+
Wed Oct 10 22:41:29 UTC 2018
Added Hyper-V keyboard and framebuffer modules.
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 13 19:42:20 UTC 2018
Load ter-114v.psf.gz in rc.font.
+--------------------------+
Mon Sep 10 20:41:59 UTC 2018
Switch to ter-114v.psf.gz as the consolefont. It has been reported that the
font we were using (ter-v14v.psf.gz) restricts the available console colors
from 16 to 8 due to needing an extra bit for the higher number of available
glyphs (though in testing here I couldn't see any difference). The new font
covers ISO8859-1, ISO8859-15, and Windows-1252 codepages. I'm still not sure
it's the best choice, so additional input is welcomed.
+--------------------------+
Wed Jul 25 03:29:26 UTC 2018
Use ter-v14v.psf.gz as the consolefont. It supports more character sets, and
the larger font was causing wraparound on UEFI (at least on bare metal here).
+--------------------------+
Fri Jun 22 23:38:50 UTC 2018
Added libaio (needed by lvm).
+--------------------------+
Wed Jun 20 21:08:45 UTC 2018
Upgraded dropbear. Thanks to Robby Workman.
+--------------------------+
Mon Jun 18 17:53:56 UTC 2018
When compressing the initrd with xz, add: -C crc32
Use xzcat instead of zcat in a few places where the build script wants to
extract a previous initrd.
+--------------------------+
Mon Jun 18 04:13:53 UTC 2018
Copy libefiboot to the installer (needed by efibootmgr).
Compress the kernel modules with xz.
Compress the initrd image with xz.
+--------------------------+
Thu Jun 14 01:16:42 UTC 2018
Copy libefivar to the installer (needed by efibootmgr).
+--------------------------+
Wed Jun 6 20:31:26 UTC 2018
Fix finding some DOS/Win partition types. Thanks to Stuart Winter.
Wipe the probe md5sum to force rescanning partitions if setup is restarted.
+--------------------------+
Sat Apr 28 20:04:23 UTC 2018
Reduce sleep times in the installer. You'll just have to read faster. ;-)
+--------------------------+
Sat Apr 21 00:29:54 UTC 2018
Use busybox's dd after all... it wasn't the cause of the size display bug.
Don't try to migrate /tmp storage to the hard drive. We're not in the
floppy disk era any more and are unlikely to run out of space on a tmpfs.
+--------------------------+
Wed Apr 18 04:06:45 UTC 2018
Update busybox to 1.28.3.
Add dd and mcookie to the installer.
Add a dialog when setup starts to tell the user that partition information
is being collected.
+--------------------------+
Sat Mar 31 18:00:31 UTC 2018
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz:
/sbin/probe: use md5sum of /proc/partitions to determine if previously
cached results should be returned.
+--------------------------+
Thu Mar 22 09:51:59 UTC 2018
Fixes for ARM:
* Fix module loading from etc/rc.d/rc.S
* Update architecture quadlet for build target
+--------------------------+
Thu Mar 1 21:56:38 UTC 2018
Put up "Scanning for USB stick..." dialog during the scan delay.
Make "terse" the pre-selected menu mode.
+--------------------------+
Thu Mar 1 06:55:30 UTC 2018
/sbin/probe: Add -c option to use the cached previous results if possible.
Use cached probe where possible in /usr/lib/setup scripts.
In many places, remove double spaces from after sentences in accordance with
the Chicago Manual of Style recommendations.
+--------------------------+
Mon Feb 19 22:30:33 UTC 2018
Add packages: lzip, lzlib, plzip.
+--------------------------+
Tue Feb 13 06:43:38 UTC 2018
Put files in the same places that they would be on a real install, instead
of shoving everything into /bin. Remove busybox symlinks if we have a real
version to use instead.
Don't copy /bin/tar-[0-9]* to the installer. /bin/tar is good enough
(check it with --version ;-), and the pkgtools no longer use tar-1.13.
Don't sed the ldd shebang, no need now that we have a /usr/bin/bash symlink.
Make sure that /bin/sh points to bash, but don't mess with other shell links.
Copy /usr/bin/ddrescue from the package to the installer.
+--------------------------+
Sun Feb 4 04:24:08 UTC 2018
Create /etc/default directory.
Include /etc/default/{nfs,rpc}
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 22 18:34:44 UTC 2017
Update to the newer elilo.x64 binary in sources/efi*
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 22 04:49:08 UTC 2017
SeTEFI: Don't use fdisk -l (unneccessary). Thanks to Didier Spaier.
SetEFI: Scan /dev/mmcblk[0-9]. Thanks to zerouno.
probe: Filter another possible EFI partition label.
+--------------------------+
Sun Nov 12 22:08:51 UTC 2017
Include iproute2 and hostname packages (to get hostname and ip man pages).
+--------------------------+
Mon Oct 2 17:35:19 UTC 2017
slackinstall: When doing a network install, don't download a package if the
tagfile is going to skip installing it. Thanks to ivandi.
+--------------------------+
Sat Sep 30 21:06:10 UTC 2017
SeTnet attempts to cat $TMP/SeTT_PX at boot time, when it doesn't exist.
I just directed stderr from these attempts to /dev/null to get rid of the
error message, but perhaps there's a bug here that needs to be addressed?
SeTnet doesn't actually seem to use $T_PX for anything other than determining
if it's running on the installer or an installed system.
+--------------------------+
Fri Jul 28 17:09:07 UTC 2017
Upgraded to busybox-1.27.1, and enabled damn near everything. Might as well,
since the size of e.g. kernel modules will dwarf the busybox binary anyway,
and any real utilities we use will be copied over the symlinks after busybox
is built.
Removed /usr/bin/man shell script -- use busybox man applet instead.
Create /usr/bin/man? -> cat? symlinks to make busybox man happy with the
preprocessed manpages.
+--------------------------+
Mon Jul 17 18:47:36 UTC 2017
In busybox-dot-config, add support for findfs and volume ids.
+--------------------------+
Fri Jul 7 18:53:31 UTC 2017
Dnsmasq has changed to using libidn2, so add the libidn2 library and the
libunistring library to the installer. Don't add libidn version 1 anymore,
as nothing else on the installer uses it.
+--------------------------+
Tue May 9 20:22:15 UTC 2017
Replace hardcoded /mnt with ${T_PX} in many places.
Thanks to alienBOB.
+--------------------------+
Tue May 9 18:43:55 UTC 2017
Use nosuid,nodev,noexec mount options for /dev/shm in installer-created
/etc/fstab.
+--------------------------+
Thu May 4 21:31:35 UTC 2017
Patched SeTEFI and probe to fix NVMe support.

build_installer: Use the 'bash' package rather than compiling it.
Removed some old ARM cruft.
Added some basic 'aarch64' (arm64) support.
+--------------------------+
Sat Dec 24 00:53:47 UTC 2016
build_installer: Do not include libtermcap.
Also, I'd rather see this use the bash package than compile bash, just to
save a bit of compile time. There's currently no reason to be compiling
this, and the given reason is "in case we might need diet configure flags
sometime in the future". YAGNI.
+--------------------------+
Tue Jul 12 17:25:10 UTC 2016
build_installer: Switched soft->hard float CFLAGS.
Removed trailing white space.
+--------------------------+
Tue Jun 7 10:36:58 UTC 2016
build_installer: Added /etc/nfsmount.conf so that any default changes
made to the nfs-utils package exist within the installer.
Moved some of the file copying script around.
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz:
Removed etc/nfsmount.conf, etc/dialogrc (was already copied by the
build_installer script).
MoZes.

Forgot to make rc.dropbear executable, AAAAAARGH
+--------------------------+
Wed May 25 23:08:19 UTC 2016
In rc.dropbear, don't tell it to use motd.net, which no longer exists.
+--------------------------+
Fri May 20 17:10:54 UTC 2016
Include /sbin/e4crypt.
+--------------------------+
Wed May 11 23:43:13 UTC 2016
In rc.S, comment out making motd.net telling the user to source /etc/profile.
Dropbear handles things properly without that now.
+--------------------------+
Tue May 3 19:53:33 UTC 2016
Include md/dm-raid.ko module for LVM with internal RAID support.
+--------------------------+
Sun Apr 24 00:27:03 UTC 2016
Patched busybox to fix newly created directory perms on 64-bit platforms.
+--------------------------+
Sat Mar 19 21:27:44 UTC 2016
Increase "full install" size estimate to 9+ GB.
+--------------------------+
Sat Mar 19 19:01:06 UTC 2016
Add libpci.so.* to the installer, since lspci needs that now.
+--------------------------+
Sat Mar 5 18:12:03 UTC 2016
Use "mkfs.brtfs -f" in SeTpartitions. Thanks to Didier Spaier.
+--------------------------+
Wed Mar 2 20:01:32 UTC 2016
Patch /sbin/probe (again) to hopefully fix NVMe devices on Dell laptops.
+--------------------------+
Sat Feb 20 17:50:37 UTC 2016
Set empty password for root in /etc/shadow so that root can log in using
dropbear. Thanks to MoZes.
+--------------------------+
Wed Feb 3 00:13:29 UTC 2016
Include all cpufreq modules.
Keep acpi/processor.ko, needed by acpi-cpufreq.
Use 'LANG=C fdisk -l' in SeTEFI.
+--------------------------+
Wed Jan 13 19:15:03 UTC 2016
Fixed this line in /sbin/probe:
elif [ "$MAJOR" = "259" ]; then
+--------------------------+
#NOT ACTUALLY MERGED SINCE IT DOESN'T WORK
#Tue Jan 12 07:26:02 UTC 2016
# Use tar to extract the kernel module directory version number from the
# kernel-modules package. This is needed for a kernel such as 4.4 which
# installs modules in /lib/modules/4.4.0/.
+--------------------------+
Thu Dec 24 20:35:26 UTC 2015
Patched /sbin/probe for nvme partitions.
Thanks to Didier Spaier.
+--------------------------+
Wed Dec 23 04:09:29 UTC 2015
Added kernel modules: block/nvme.ko, mmc/host/sdhci-acpi.ko.
+--------------------------+
Mon Dec 21 08:40:29 UTC 2015
Updates for auto NFS mounting:
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz:
usr/lib/setup/INSNFS: Use '/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc restart' rather than starting
rpcbind and rpc.statd directly.
etc/services: Removed. Now added by the build_installer.sh script.
build_installer.sh:
Add /etc/rc.d/rc.rpc to the installer image and chmod +x.
Add /usr/sbin/sm-notify from nfs-utils package.
Copy /etc/services from the 'a/etc' package to ensure that it's always up to date.
Copy /etc/netconfig from the libtirpc package (required for rpc.statd/rpcbind).
MoZes.
+--------------------------+
Tue Dec 15 21:04:25 UTC 2015
Remove portmap from package list, add libtirpc and rpcbind.
Patch INSNFS to run rpcbind instead of rpc.portmap.
+--------------------------+
Tue Dec 1 22:28:10 UTC 2015
In /etc/motd, don't suggest gdisk and cgdisk for partitioning GPT, since
fdisk and cfdisk work just fine now. Also, remove instructions for starting
PCMCIA and Cardbus devices. I doubt many people are still using that.
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 25 05:17:36 UTC 2015
Add /dev/shm and /dev/pts to /etc/fstab.
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 25 02:34:25 UTC 2015
Change 32-bit x86 $ARCH to i586.
+--------------------------+
Tue Nov 24 21:54:15 UTC 2015
Added /bin/numfmt to use for converting bytes into K, M, T, or even P.
Used in the installer itself and in pkgtools.
+--------------------------+
Thu Nov 19 18:02:48 UTC 2015
Replace udev with eudev/libgudev.
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 18 23:25:57 UTC 2015
Also support T (although it's not like I wasn't already)
+--------------------------+
Wed Nov 18 22:04:08 UTC 2015
Correct partition sizes, and use K, M, or G.
Use -F -F for all mkfs.ext* (shut up and do what I say mode)
+--------------------------+
Sat Nov 14 18:54:26 UTC 2015
Add hwdata package to get pci.ids and usb.ids.
+--------------------------+
Tue Nov 3 19:40:22 UTC 2015
Added libpcre.so.1, needed by the new grep.
+--------------------------+
Thu Oct 29 19:42:58 GMT 2015
No longer build dhcpcd version 3, use the dhcpcd package from the 'n'
series.
Removed some superfluous white space. Still more to do ;-)
+--------------------------+
Thu Aug 27 19:55:26 UTC 2015
Patched build-installer.sh to allow for non-numeric $VERSION in packages.
Thanks to MoZes.

Applied fixes from MoZes:
1) bash patch #12 is UTF8 so it was not caught by the grep, so anything past patch 11
was never applied. Fixed to match file types of 'ASCII' and 'text'.
2) ARM does not have syslinux, so we don't want to exit the Installer build because of this.
Only try and move the syslinux-nomtools binary if we're running on an *86* platform.

+--------------------------+
Fri Apr 18 11:13:15 BST 2014
All of these changes have been tested on ARM and x86.
1. build_installer.sh
Include both versions of tar from the a/tar-*.t?z package:
Many users use the installer as a rescue system and tar-1.13 has issues with
files with long file names:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/%5Bto-devs%5D-slackware-install-iso-tar-version-tooo-old-4175497116/
The pkgtools inside the installer call tar-1.13 directly. All other
scripts that call tar (font setting) work properly with tar-1.26.
2. installer/sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz
All of these changes are baked into the new version of the archive.
Summary:-
etc/inittab:
Upon shutdown of the installer, kill dropbear to prevent installations
performed over SSH from hanging until the SSH client times out.
usr/lib/setup/setup:
Move from x86-centric man-at-keyboard method of finalising the
installation. Offer 'reboot' or 'shell' from a dialog prompt - helpful
for systems that were remotely installed.
Switch single line of text instruction to remove CD with a dialog box.
+--------------------------+
Sat Feb 15 22:26:01 UTC 2014
Merged updates from MoZes:
build_installer.diff
Changelog:
Add 's' and 'x' termcaps so the installation looks pretty when
installed over serial console using 'screen' as a terminal emulator.
ARM: Switch the 'versatile' kernel name to 'armv7'.
Drop an ancient serial console bug fix.
skeleton_initrd.tar.gz:
Modified etc/profile:
to allow user to set TERM= as a kernel paramater, so as to set $TERM up front.
The previous logic was that when console=ttyS was found, the TERM defaulted to vt100
which was unfortunate because the ARM devices are usually always booted from a serial
console with that kernel parameter, but are controlled from a fully functional
Linux terminal emulator.
Modified etc/rc.S
Move the keyboard selector to after the profile scripts have been executed, so
the user can set a useful TERM value that works properly with dialog.
Modified: usr/lib/setup/SeTnet
Added 'clear' after dialog finishes, to avoid a messy screen on the serial port
(for example, after eth0 is initialised with DHCP, drop bear starts and splatters
its key generation over the blue background, looking badly integrated).
+--------------------------+
Fri Nov 1 01:02:38 UTC 2013
Mute the LVM scan at the end of package installation.
+--------------------------+
Sun Oct 27 21:53:15 UTC 2013
Filter "partitions" found on a USB installer stick in SeTDOS so that
they don't appear in the menu.
+--------------------------+
Sun Oct 13 23:49:24 UTC 2013
Rework /sbin/probe to use gdisk instead of parted, as parted does not
display the partition type code. This allows detecting swap space
without first running mkswap on it, and prevents unknown partition types
from showing up as Linux partitions.
Added SeTEFI script, which will set up an EFI System Partition.
A partition found on the same device as the root Linux partition will be
preferred, but otherwise any EFI partition found on /dev/sd{a,b,c...}
will be used.
Add /bin/pr, needed by rescan-scsi-bus.sh.
+--------------------------+
Wed Sep 25 05:12:29 UTC 2013
Add support for installing the packages from a USB stick.
This will require changing usbimg2disk to not modify the initrd.
+--------------------------+
Thu Sep 12 07:19:29 UTC 2013
Add freq_table.ko if KMS is requested in the build.
+--------------------------+

+--------------------------+
Fri Aug 16 20:25:48 UTC 2013

+--------------------------+
Mon Mar 26 00:53:08 UTC 2012
In SeTpartitions, use -d single -m single as it increases performance by
about 15%, and Luigi Genoni says multiple metadata copies are useless when
using a btrfs filesystem consisting of a single device or partition (which
is all the installer currently supports).
+--------------------------+
Sat Apr 23 18:17:21 UTC 2011
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz: Try to load loop device module.

filesystem tools, network stuff, and a few other things.
Added partx, findmnt, lsblk, fsfreeze, fstrim, and swaplabel.
Don't wipe /usr/man.
Use bzip2 for man pages (wins compression tests on man page text here easily)
ln -sf /etc/motd /root/README
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz: Add /usr/man directory.
rc.S: chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.pcmcia

Fri Feb 18 03:22:17 UTC 2011
sources/initrd/skeleton_initrd.tar.gz: fdisk -l now shows HPFS/NTFS/exFAT, so

+--------------------------+
Wed Feb 16 07:45:13 UTC 2011
build_installer.sh: util-linux-ng -> util-linux
+--------------------------+
Tue Feb 15 23:04:25 UTC 2011
