2018-07-09	get build-rootfs.sh working adequately to build some truly useful images	Andrew Cady

2018-07-09	eliminate warning (don't numerically compare the empty string)	Andrew Cady

2018-07-09	bugfix: new installs were never finalized	Andrew Cady
	Because a non-local shell variable was accidentally overwritten, the partitions containing a fresh install to an empty disk were never relabeled to indicate finalization. They would have to be relabeled manually to boot the installed system.
2018-06-16	Move unknown mountpoints before booting	Andrew Cady
	If there are mountpoints outside of /root, which `run-init` does not have in its whitelist, then `run-init` will refuse to boot and will crash the kernel instead (process 1 will exit).
2018-06-13	build-rootfs.sh builds the rootfs	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	debootstrap.sh: increase image size to 1.5G	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	add "rm" command	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	use selfstrap instead of deboostrap when possible	Andrew Cady
	this isn't quite right since it uses ./src/selfstrap instead of PATH
2018-06-13	run chroot in pids cgroup, and kill all pids in group when done	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	use variable for default chroot command	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	cache the list of unpackaged files, instead of rescanning	Andrew Cady
	also show the 'filtered' option in the usage output.
2018-06-13	show currently running suite in output	Andrew Cady

2018-06-13	Update for newer versions of qemu	Andrew Cady
	(The new qemu warns about opening a file as a raw disk image unless `raw` is specified explicitly.)
2018-06-13	Update for newer versions of nbd-client	Andrew Cady
	The kernel commandline syntax for `nbdroot=...` changed.

2017-03-29	new util: with-btrfs-seed	Andrew Cady

2017-03-28	verify that we can decrypt rootfs before offering it as menu item	Andrew Cady

2017-03-28	Use pxelinux "ipappend" option to choose rootfs source	Andrew Cady
	This fixes the issue described in the first 'netkeys' commit, where the network would need to be available even when it was not used. The "ipappend" option results in a $BOOTIF variable in the initrd environment. This variable is now used to determine whether to wait on the network for a rootfs & keys, or to wait on the boot device becoming available to determine whether it has the keys. That is, there may or may not be a boot device which may or may not have keys and/or rootfs, but we will always know for sure whether it does, therefore there are no races and no waiting on the network unnecessarily. The qemu.sh script was updated to provide the BOOTIF variable when PXE boot is emulated.
2017-03-28	change some log locations	Andrew Cady

2017-03-28	xorriso-usb will install initrd even with --bootloader flag	Andrew Cady
	This is more useful. The flag might be renamed "--skip-rootfs" or such.
2017-03-28	fix apparently-racy ordering	Andrew Cady

2017-03-28	Support for reusing a generated set of child keys	Andrew Cady

2017-03-28	Wait for nbd-client before using /dev/nbd0	Andrew Cady
	For explanation, see: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-March/018053.html But for the proper solution, see: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-March/018054.html Another option would just be to use a partitioned nbd device. The nbd device _partitions_ do not have this issue at all.
2017-03-28	Implement boot parameter "netkeys"	Andrew Cady
	This allows the keys to be loaded from the boot medium even when the root filesystem is loaded over the network. I.e., specifying nbdroot= no longer implies that the keys will be loaded over the network. The ISO images generated by xorriso-usb.sh will not specify 'netkeys' so the keys on the USB stick will be used. The idea is that after install, the network should not be needed at all; but that requires using a new mechanism instead of the nbdroot= parameter, to determine dynamically whether to use a network root fs device. Currently, the network is still needed to boot a device that has its root fs on the local disk and the keys on the boot medium, even though no data is fetched from the NBD server. You can force the machine to boot by going to the initramfs shell and running: for n in $(seq 1 20); do killall ipconfig; done Otherwise it blocks waiting for the network.
