416670ca72 Added support for PID 1 shell during boot. Added option to use local downloaded sources with no requirement on internet connection. Added option to use predefined configuration files for kernel and BusyBox. Initramfs structure has been reorganized - now /etc/03_init.sh can be edited and the persisted changes will be applied on reboot. Scripts 01 and 02 are not affected since they are used before the overlay takes place. Added helper script file which generates hard disk image as sparse file. QEMU scripts have been enhanced for easier boot with hard disk images. Internal comments have been improved. 2016-04-23 01:43:40 +03:00

d36c007993 Disabled some optional glibc modules for better compatibility. This should fix issues with host machines which have selinux on them. 2016-04-17 17:47:57 +03:00

05b62fd32e Major reorganization - initramfs structure is now externalized in separate folder structure. Added support for overlay from folders and disk images. Overlay structure has been externalized in separate folder. Added support to use preconfigured ".config" files for BusyBox and kernel. 2016-04-16 21:23:20 +03:00

07da9983c1 Unmount device on overlay failure before continuing to next device. Overlay support works from different device without unmounting the first device, so this might be a bug in BusyBox. 2016-04-11 22:23:20 +03:00

ecd53af5ce Fixed type "crytical" --> "critical". 2016-04-10 04:34:14 +03:00

2f4fdc8cb4 Added overlay support which mounts /minimal/rootfs if it is found on the boot media. Note that this doesn't work on vfat. Works fine on CD image and on separate ext2 partition. 2016-04-10 04:09:27 +03:00

a65281ac48 The root location is changed dynamically via 'switch_root'. This is prerequisite for more complex boot process. 2016-04-09 18:48:53 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
2a6f913801 Added simple Makefile which encapsulates the full build process. 2016-04-09 01:25:21 +03:00

44ee04c758 Syslinux is now automatically downloaded and ISO image generation process uses precompiled Syslinux binaries. The initramfs logging has been improved and more details are displayed during boot. 2016-04-07 00:22:20 +03:00

0441e69d0c Moved the stable 'glibc-busybox' scripts from the experimental folder to the root script folder. Removed the 'experimental' folder because the DNS resolving issue has been fixed. Added website information about the '03-Apr-2016' release. 2016-04-03 01:19:54 +03:00

b097308669 Started cleanup & preparation process for publishing. The code has been tested on 32-bit and 64-bit machines. 2016-04-02 17:33:30 +03:00

fb5ab6f49a Updated the root FS generation process to support x86_64 machines. GNU libc dependencies have been reduced significantly and only the DNS related libraries are used. This works for x86_64 machines but hasn't been tested on pure 32-bit machines. 2016-04-02 14:30:53 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
4c807ae189 Forgot to add the updated .gitignore file. This is related to the previous commit. 2016-04-02 12:11:19 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
40fdd94157 Added experimental folder 'glibc-busybox' which solves the DNS issue. This works on 32bit machines. Not tested on 64bit machines. This is not at all "minimal" and needs *a lot* of RAM (256MB for now). 2016-04-02 12:06:36 +03:00

1ca057ee0b Headers are reused rom the downloaded kernel. ISO image is generated in custom shell script.
This commit is prerequisite for major switch from glibc to musl.

8b96da4dbe John Jolly suggested to use "cpio" with "-R root:root" in order to generate rootfs with all files and folders owned by root (uid 0 and gid 0). This hasn't been tested yet. 2016-01-14 19:33:56 +02:00

9797b843d1 Another reorganization of the 'experiemntal' folder. Added musl with toybox (doesn't work at the moment). 2015-09-19 21:54:31 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
130ffa2cec Reorganized the 'experimental' folder. Added 'experimental/musl' whish solves the DNS resolving issue. This should be optimized to use the newly downloaded kernel headers (if possible). 2015-09-19 00:36:37 +03:00

72bd42fd25 Few improvements based on contributed code and user proposals:
* Added basic DHCP network support. DNS not working due to glibc static linking issues.
* Added 'genisoimage' fix for Debian systems.
* Added compilation optimization which significantly reduces the overall compilation time.
