So you mean boot folder files have to be movved to /EFI/BOOT/ and remove boot folder and partition.
But then everything has to be changed from SLI to install_on_usb.sh and the scripts creating the iso, they use boot directory and not BOOT. Second (for 64bit) or forth partition (for 32bit)
So i think i will leave it as it is. Since all have been tested and are working fine. I do not know if i change things what problems might appeared.
I have prepared a rc1 version including the latest updates from slackware-14.1
I will upload the iso images and inform here.
SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
I (or someone) needs to write the README before the final release. A bit busy this week but I'll try and do it tonight.
Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
mimosa look here README
If you think i have to change something or add anything just tell me.
Also you can write it from start change everything.

All you need to do is to not create the first partition. Everything else can remain the same.djemos wrote:So you mean boot folder files have to be movved to /EFI/BOOT/ and remove boot folder and partition.

Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
djemos, that looks great to me. I would add two things:
After the sentence which says there is no need to specify iso, I would add: However, you do need to specify the architecture, because this affects the location of the perssitent file.
I think it's worth giving an example command for mounting the iso:

Code: Select all
mkdir /tmp/foo/bar
sudo mount -o loop path/to/iso /tmp/foo/bar
Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
Done. Please take a look again in the README
Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
I think it would be better if the instructions for mounting went up at the top, and also if the directory in the example was the same - you used /tmp/iso, I used /tmp/foo/bar. /tmp/iso make more sense. ALso I forgot sudo before mkdir. So just put the three lines of bash together like this:
(actually four lines) that way it is clearer and easier for users uncertain on the command line.
Code: Select all
sudo mkdir /tmp/iso
sudo mount -o loop path_to_iso_image /tmp/iso
cd /tmp/iso/boot
sudo sh install_on_usb.sh --usb path_to_iso_image device

elilo.conf params.msg message.msg general.msg exist on first partition.laprjns wrote: All you need to do is to not create the first partition. Everything else can remain the same.
efi.img on second partition is used as a link to bootx64.efi on first partition to load elilo.conf
So things are not simple just to delete the first partition.
I have modified the script so this is an install_on_usb.sh which install iso on a single partition. This has to be tested on installing the system on a UEFI 64 bit system as well on a non uefi 64bit system on a virtual box at least.
Re: SalixLive XFCE 14.1 beta3
I will test on non-UEFI, maybe laprjns can test on UEFI.
