38716fc00d Added proper UEFI support. The ISO image can be 'burned' on USB flash drive (dd if=mll.iso of=/dev/xyz) and it works on UEFI systems (tested with QEMU and virtual hdd image). The 'hybrid' support also works and one ISO/hdd can be used on both firmware types. 2017-12-18 01:23:22 +02:00

691a321ead Updated all scripts to use common functions. Updated the sparse image size to 3MB by default. 2017-12-06 19:27:20 +02:00

f8128e83fb Added sample 'common.sh' in the main sources. The kernel download process has been rewritten to use the functionality from 'common.sh'. The whole project should adopt functional structure where it makes sense (e.g. the common download proces in most places). 2017-12-06 03:07:21 +02:00

dcfa71368f Better way to handle the 'EFI mixed mode' edge case when building 64-bit MLL. 2017-12-04 02:52:34 +02:00

90fdceabb9 Using 'xorriso' instead of 'genisoimage'. Updated the kernel version. Fixed the 'static_get' build process to follow the common practice the build directory to be named the same as the bundle name. This is mandatory for the dependency detection mechanism in order to work properly. All other bundles have to follow the same approach (not implemented yet). 2017-11-25 17:52:09 +02:00

acb5f0b617 Externalized the additional CFLAGS. Removed the isohybrid functionality. These changes haven't been tested yet. 2017-01-15 03:24:31 +02:00

59b1096f34 Fixed Typo
Due to "CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y" being echoed to the .confjg by just one >, it was overwriting the .config file, causing the user to have to manually configure it again. Now with it >> it adds the text at end of the file. Untested but logically makes sense.

66630efd28 Added UEFI specific fix - we need to apply different kernel configurations for 32-bit and 64-bit targets. Tested the build process (works fine), UEFI boot from CD (works fine), BIOS boot from CD (works fine) and EFI boot from HDD after manual installation (works fine). The installer part is still not UEFI ready. 2016-10-16 18:22:50 +03:00

50fb618a0b Added EFI support. Manually tested it in 64-bit mode. Not tested in 32-bit mode. The installer is BIOS based and needs to be reworked for EFI support. Manuall HDD installation (64-bit, EFI) works fine. 2016-10-16 16:46:25 +03:00

4328fa806c Added Oracle JRE/JDK and Apache Felix OSGi framework as overlay bundles. This needs additional cleanup. Updated the kernel build process - artifacts are used from separate install location. 2016-05-29 19:38:55 +03:00

a6dbd498ac Added build hack to enforce Intel's "Turbo Boost". This should be harmless for single/virtual core processors. Now 'make' is always invoked with number of jobs higher than the available CPU cores. 2016-05-23 15:30:22 +03:00

ad683263a6 Redesigned the overlay build process - now it is more flexible. Updated property read process - now only properties in the beginning of the line are used. 2016-05-20 21:28:54 +03:00

497c375973 Size optimizations (remove debug symbols). Added 'Dropbear SSH' as additional overlay software. Added '/var/log/' log files. Added support for '/dev/pts' (required by Dropbear). 2016-05-15 23:27:20 +03:00

0c8b4e3502 Added ANSI escape codes for some messages. This works both in standard and graphics modes. 2016-05-10 23:56:25 +03:00

a9b550a4a1 Added basic framebuffer/graphics support (with default Tux logo) which works fine in QEMU and VirtualBox. Tested on x86, not tested on x86_64. 2016-05-10 00:46:51 +03:00

848f5e5623 Added support for building additional/overlay software on top of MLL. The only such software for now is Links (text browser). 2016-05-06 23:44:54 +03:00

e11ed73329 Major reorganization (might break the build, not tested). Externalized the "copy source" process. Added properties to fin-tune the "copy source" process. Changed how Linux loader visibility is handled on 64-bit machines. Comments and log messages have been improved. 2016-05-04 18:44:39 +03:00

c61f217835 BusyBox and glibc now use separate object/install/prepare folders. Kernel and initramfs are reconfigured to use XZ compression. Added more CFLAGS for smaller output size. As result the fina ISO image is significantly smaller than before. 2016-05-04 01:25:26 +03:00

fe195af1ae Added more default CFLAGS for better comaptibility with Ubuntu toolchain. Added the '-Os' flag which produces smaller output files. These changes haven't been tested yet. 2016-05-02 05:51:53 +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

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

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
