Fix for Archiso-live 20081028 Release

i have made a xdelta file for fixing the Archiso-live 20081028. This is only need if your going to install it.

You can get here.

Do it like this:
pacman -Sy xdelta
xdelta patch archiso-live-20081028.1.xdelta archiso-live-20081028.iso archiso-live-20081028.1.iso

NOTE: This only need if your going install it. Otherwize you don't need it.

PS You don't need this if you just delete two files from your live system before install. Do 'gksu thunar' and enter in password 'ArchLinux'. Then go into /etc/rc.d/functions.d and delete sysinit-chakra and shutdown-chakra. This is so you don't have reburn the cd.

Arch-live 20080731 release

Changes since last release:
added a mini, CD, and full menu options now.

• mini option is the normal desktop apps. If you took the arch-live/base/extra folder from the cd with isomaster you will have more reasonble ~530mb live cd. This come with all the desktops but kde and afterstep.
  

• CD option is just the base folder modules. This is so when i make the dvd edition you can still see what the CD edition looks/feels like with out downloading the cd version. CD option is Default.
  

• The full option is so all modules in base and modules folders are load on boot.
  

The nonfree ati and nvidia drivers are moved from optional to modules folder now. This is why there is a CD and Full menu options now. NOTE: videoconfig script is bugy with my x200 IGP. This the main reason its being done this way.

I added info.pl script to arch-live. info.pl is called archinfo.pl in arch-live cause its made for archlinux. :) The forum thread about this is here. Packages giblib and scrot are added cause of this script.

I reverse aufs-slax to 20080527 so deactivate script will work again. Now you can remove modules again.

/mnt/live/memory/images folder uses tmpfs now if xino folder needs tmpfs.

I added slax2hd module from here. Its a installer but its uses dialog in shell like slackware installer does. You will have login to root to use it. NOTE: USE AT OWN RISK.

NOTE:
root password: ArchLinux

user: arch
password: arch

packages added:
giblib
scrot
xf86-video-vesa-2.0.0-2-i686 (my own package to fix some vbox problems)
lxde desktop
pacbuilder-svn

You can get the iso here.

I upload it here. Its name will be 11-libkdemod4.lzm.
Only kdemod4 will be supported for now on.

You can get the iso here. I will also added a installer module to repo soon.

PS This release took longer cause i was making kernel 2.6.26 work with my wifi. I found out that you can only have rtl8187 devices working with 11M data rate now with pid data rate in the kernel. code: iwconfig wlan0 rate 11M
NOTE: rtl8187 devices will not work with data rate set to auto or any other rate then 11M.

A Mirror for arch-live ISOs

I know have a mirror for my arch-live isos. You can find it here. I have it also in my side bar called US Arch-live Mirror 1.

You can thank crouse in the archlinux forum for the mirror.

Arch-live 20080706 release

I'm updating arch-live cause I got linux-live to work with initramfs now. I think everything is working but I have not checked out changes boot option. Also I have updated everything to 20080706 in iso. The only thing I didn't updated is xf86-video-vesa driver. Its cause the new 2.0.0 vesa driver cause virtualbox not work with it.

I have also updated the kernel to 2.6.25.10. I'm using my new kernel26slax package in aur now. Aufs is also updated since I'm compiling againist the kernel for it to work now. The lastest devel package is also in iso under devel folder of the iso.

I move cups from 02-apps.lzm to 03-xorg.lzm because its not need for the arch core live menu option to work. libcups is staying in 02-apps.lzm cause it maybe need by some command line programs. 02-apps.lzm module is now 6mb less without cups in it.

You can get the iso here.

It will be done uploading at 1:30am EST time.

Arch-live 20080626 release

I have update the iso again. Its up to date as of 20080626.

Changes:
gtkpacman
shaman (Need to be root in order ro it to start. This is cause it doesn't has for root password when you start it.)
lighttpd replaces the server modules
mysql is in 08-xlib module now cause its kdemod dep(kdemod is not include)
qtmod from kdemod repalces qt from archlinux
xchm
keytouch (I added it in twice by mistake.)
keytouch-editor
Added e17cvs session to slim. Now you can use e17-cvs desktop on start if you want. (Press F1 on slim login screen to select a desktop.)
I changed the design of the extra/xapps folder. Now its by category of the library it uses. (gtk folder has pygtk, gtk1, and gtk2 apps. qt has qt4 apps, qt3 has qt3 apps, etc.)

You can get the full list of packages and iso here.

You can get kdemod and kdemod4 modules here. Kdmod4 needs jre6u5 for one of the apps to work.

Arch-live 20080619 release

I have upload a new iso today. I added the following:
firefox3
lmms
hydrogen
smplayer
exaile
kino
added nvidia and ati drivers in optional folder
compiz-fusion in optional folder
asunder
audacious
gajim
gimp-devel replaces gimp

You can get the full package list and iso here.

I hope this helps.

Arch-live 20080612 release

I have added a new iso tonight. I added gnome desktop to the iso now. I was able to make it using a new "arch2lzm mergelist" option. This is like the addlist option but you make a module from a list in this new option. It will also install any deps missing from the current system too.

I had to reverse my kernel back to the slax 2.6.24.5 version. This is cause 2.6.25.x series has to many bugs in working with wifi. Even in myah 3.0 my problem was still there.

You can get the iso and package list here.

PS My internet upload speed is 3 times then last week. I was able to upload the 558mb iso file in 75 minutes. This is very good since i can make special dvd editions of arch-live and be able to upload them in reasonable amount of time. (Ex. Based on those speeds i can upload a 1.5gb iso file in about 4 hours. :) )

Arch-live 20080605 release

I have updated the kernel to 2.6.25.4. I used patches from myah 3.0 kernel sources. I modified my patches for sqlzma against myah sqlzma patches for it to work in 2.6.25.4 kernel.

Kernel26livecd aur package is here.

I have added awesome desktop and merge 03-common with 01-core.

You can get the iso, package list, and new modules package list here.

Since the kernel has been updated i'm going to delete the older isos to save space on my host server. This is so the kernel drivers in the module repo will only be for new current kernel and there is no confusion with older drivers.

I will keep the last update and move my kernel drivers for the older kernel there. This is so there will be a older version for people that want it or need it.
