Hi all: |
2 |
Okay, here goes some more information. |
3 |
|
4 |
For LiveCDs, the layout will go as follows: |
5 |
Currently, catalyst built LiveCDs have: |
6 |
/isolinux |
7 |
/rr-moved |
8 |
/x86-isogen.sh |
9 |
/zisofs (depends on the loopback you use) |
10 |
|
11 |
rr-moved and x86-isogen.sh are going to go. I will start hacking on |
12 |
catalyst to see if I can clean that up a bit. What we have to add now is |
13 |
a README in the liveCD /, and the appropriate docs dirs, so the liveCD |
14 |
will now look like this: |
15 |
|
16 |
/README |
17 |
/docs/{release-notes/{html/txt},handbook/{html,txt}} |
18 |
/isolinux |
19 |
/rr-moved |
20 |
/snapshots |
21 |
/stages |
22 |
/x86-isogen.sh |
23 |
/zisofs (depends on the loopback you use) |
24 |
|
25 |
Remember to get your release notes prepared and posted on the web. |

Bug me for commit access. |
31 |
|
32 |
Next, I need some information on what arch is doing what. From what I |
33 |
know, these arches are doing to following for 2004.0: |
34 |
|
35 |
x86: stages, LiveCD, snapshot, GRP |
36 |
ppc: stages, LiveCD, snapshot, GRP |
37 |
sparc: stages, LiveCD, snapshot GRP |
38 |
MIPS: stages, snapshot |
39 |
hardened: stages, snapshot, GRP |

|
41 |
If I am wrong in anything above, please mail me ASAP so I can get swift |
42 |
the documentation that he needs. |
43 |
|
44 |
Next, I am going to paste directly from swift so that we can get this |
45 |
all answered: |
46 |
|
47 |
- What options are available when the new LiveCD boots? kernel and |
48 |
parameters. |
49 |
- Will keymap selection be integrated in the boot-process and if so, how? |
50 |
- Is LVM2 and EVMS supported ? |
51 |
- What kernel sources will be available on the 2-CD LiveCD set? |
52 |
- What architectures does genkernel support currently? |
53 |
|
54 |
Other than that, please just keep me abreast of what is going on. |
