| 2016-02-04 | Slackware Live Edition: version 0.5.0 (aka Beta5)...Milestones reached:
- Option to use a loop-mounted file for storing persistence data.
When using 'iso2usb.sh' to copy the ISO content to a USB stick, use
the new '-P' parameter to create and use a container file 'persistence.img'.
Note that the existence of a directory 'persistence' in the root of the
Linux partition of your USB stick still takes precedence over the file
'persistence.img'. So be sure to remove that directory first, if you want
to start using a loop-mounted file for persistence.
- New 'toram' boot option (add the word to the syslinux or grub boot
commandline) allows you to run the Live OS completely in RAM. If you are
booting from a CDROM, it will be ejected at the end of the boot process.
A USB stick can be removed manually after booting Slackware Live Edition.
Further interesting updates:
- A new boot parameter 'blacklist' allows you to blacklist certain
kernel modules while booting. Some people need to blacklist the 'nouveau'
module for instance.
Example: add "blacklist=nouveau" to the syslinux or grub boot commandline.
Multiple modules can be specified, separated by commas.
- The XDM login screen now has a button "console" which lets you drop to a
console login if you have no need of a graphical login or don't want to
start an X Session (relevant for the XFCE and MATE variants).
And many other small improvements/bugfixes to the scripts as well of course.

| 2016-02-03 | Cosmetics: better grouping of code; additional comments for better readability. | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -28/+45 |
| 2016-02-03 | Do not run the risk of creating a dangling symlink. | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -1/+1 |
| 2016-02-02 | Live init: add 'blacklist' bootparam to prevent loading of kernel driver(s)....Any kernel modules mentioned here will be added to the modprobe blacklist.
This will help out people who need to blacklist the nouveau driver,
for instance if they have a too-new computer.
Syntax:
blacklist=mod1[,mod2[,...]]

| 2016-02-02 | Live init: eject the Live CDROM/DVD medium after loading modules into RAM....Only relevant if the user added the 'toram' boot option.
| Eric Hameleers | 1 | -0/+3 |
| 2016-02-02 | Live init: move the module loading code into a single function call....This gets rid of quite some code duplication.

| 2016-02-02 | XDM: add a 'console' button for easy access to a console login session. | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -2/+5 |
| 2016-02-02 | Don't abort if the udev rules file is not present in the initrd. | Eric Hameleers | 1 | -1/+1 |
| 2016-02-02 | Live init: add 'toram' boot parameter....This allows the user to remove the bootable Live media afterwards, because
the complete OS will been copied to RAM and run from there when adding
the boot commandline parameter 'toram'.
This feature works nicely for the XFCE ISO since that one is fairly small.
Untested for the bigger ISOs; you need more patience while the squashfs
modules are being copied to RAM, and available RAM decreases a lot.
Realistically speaking, your computer would need 1 or 2 GB of RAM for
the XFCE variant, 2 or 4 GB RAM for the Mate variant, and 4 to 8 GB RAM
for the KDE4 and Plasma5 variants.
