Changelog

[XX] - YYYY-MM-DD

Added

Changed

Deprecated

Fixed

Removed

[72] - 2025-01-23

Fixed

  • Use the x-initrd.mount mount option to make systemd aware of the file systems mounted in the initramfs stage so that they are properly ordered for unmounting during shutdown.

[71] - 2024-07-25

Changed

  • Add files from file descriptors by piping them to mkinitcpio's add_file function instead of directly writing to paths under $BUILDROOT.
  • Increase the time archisosearchuuid waits for a device with the UUID, i.e. the rootdelay value, from 2 seconds to 4 seconds to give more time for USB devices to appear.
  • First search for archisosearchfilename on removable devices and only then look at non-removable devices.
  • Use mkinitcpio's new getarg function to get kernel cmdline parameters.
  • Allow using archisosearchfilename without having to also set archisosearchuuid.
  • Use pv's -o option to specify output instead of using shell redirection.

[70] - 2024-03-30

Added

  • Implement searching for the archiso device using archisosearchuuid and archisosearchfilename (defaults to /boot/${archisosearchuuid}.uuid) boot parameters. If a device with UUID matching archisosearchuuid does not exist, then all available block devices are mounted and searched for the archisosearchfilename file.

[69] - 2023-12-21

Added

  • Document tftp as a supported protocol for the script boot parameter.

[68] - 2023-02-20

Changed

  • Disable automatic copytoram if the root file system image is on /dev/sr* (an optical disc drive). Real optical disc drives and remotely emulated ones can be slow and take too long to complete the copy process.
  • Replace poll_device with resolve_device in the archiso hook. This enables using UUID=, LABEL=, PARTUUID and PARTLABEL tags to specify devices (archisodevice, cow_device and img_dev).

[67] - 2022-12-24

Changed

  • Do not include the gpg binary unless the initramfs will also include a GPG keyring.

[66] - 2022-11-29

Changed

  • Use mkinitcpio's add_udev_rule function to add udev rules instead of adding them as regular files.
  • Use full path to ash in runtime hook shebang.
  • Use /usr/bin/ instead of /bin/ as the target paths for binaries.
  • Do not check for symlinks when adding files with install hooks, instead let mkinitcpio handle them.

Removed

  • The archiso hook will not include the mountpoint, truncate and grep binaries in the initramfs anymore. The busybox versions of these tools (as provided by mkinitcpio's base hook) are sufficient.

[65] - 2022-10-30

Changed

  • Automatically enable copytoram if rootfs image size is less than 4 GiB and free RAM exceeds the rootfs image size plus 2 GiB.
  • Do not use certificates embedded in the signature file during OpenSSL CMS verification.

Removed

  • Deprecate the archiso_kms hook. It is now part of mkinitcpio and is called kms.

[64] - 2022-09-25

Added

  • The option to verify the rootfs signature using openssl CMS module against a specified CA.

[63] - 2022-04-28

Changed

  • Replace all feasible instances of mkdir preceding mount with mount --mkdir.

[62] - 2022-03-25

Changed

  • The archiso_kms hook adds all DRM and AGP kernel modules not just a select few.

[61] - 2022-01-31

Added

  • Add further contributing guidelines around the use of the changelog and how maintainers deal with merge requests

Changed

  • Mount cowspace readonly and read-write afterwards to prevent errors if multiple mounts are active
  • Extend default DHCP timeout to 60s to avoid issues with Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)

Removed

[60] - 2021-12-28

Changed

  • Change the way COW space is mounted by only mounting it once read-writable

Removed

  • Remove EROFS related fixes, that are not required anymore due to util-linux now detecting it properly
  • Remove obsolete archiso_shutdown hook and associated files, as the functionality is available in mkinitcpio directly

[59] - 2021-11-30

Added

  • Add a mailmap file for better author integration in git

Changed

  • Make PGP verification more verbose and fix message output

[58] - 2021-07-31

Added

  • Add README.rst and CONTRIBUTING.rst
  • Add editorconfig integration
  • Add GitLab CI integration

Changed

  • Adapt Makefile to new repository layout and only test and install files that are part of mkinitcpio-archiso
  • Fix formatting of hooks and scripts according to shfmt
