In the original version of the script, the squashfs modules' contents
would be extracted one after the other.
However this disregards any package or file deletions inbetween modules.
As a result, e.g. a PLASMA5 installation to disk using 'setup2hd' would
leave several artefacts in removed_scripts and removed_packages and probably
in other locations too.
The overlay is now constructed somewhat differently, so that 'setup2hd' can
access the full read-only filesystem properly; it will copy this content
to the harddisk using rsync. A progress indicator will show the stats of
files that are actually being transferred.
At the same time, the 'setup2hd' script's language settings are now
hard-coded by setting 'LC_ALL' and LANG to "C". Slackware's setup scripts
parse command output and expect english texts there, but when you selected
a different language when booting your Live OS, this would confuse e.g.
'liloconfig' to the extent that it failed to find the Linux partitions.

When changes need to be made to README.txt and its Wiki version at
http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:liveslak I want to be able to
diff the two easily.

If the predefined console font (CONSFONT variable) was not found
on the system, the make_slackware_live.sh script would abort with an error.

This requires functionality in grub which is currently not enabled
in Slackware's grub package.
If you want a 32-bit Live ISO that boots on UEFI computers, you need
to recompile Slackware's grub with the patch for grub.SlackBuild which
you can find in the ./patches subdirectory.
Then you need to set the variable "EFI32" to "YES" in the
'make_slackware_live.sh' script and (re-)generate your 32-bit ISO.
The resulting 32-bit Live ISO will be UEFI-bootable.
