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
Ivan Davidov
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

f27d4994fe Added the Syslinux 'mbr.bin' as binary dependency in the installer. 2016-10-16 14:23:44 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
ca11f484d9 Added simple installer for the whole OS. Note that this installer depends on 'extlinux' which comes as 32-bit binary. The installer works fine but the dynamic libraries need better handling for 64-bit host machines. Most probably additional 32-bit 'glibc' build will be required in order to generate the proper libraries. 2016-10-16 00:16:53 +03:00

a80d1d07a7 Added new software bundle 'mll_utils'. Currently it contains a disk nuke utility/script which securely wipes partitions/disks. 2016-10-15 19:58:39 +03:00

848ea2c244 Forgot to add the latest changes in the "README" file. This is related to the previous commit. 2016-10-13 19:01:49 +03:00

5e859c098c Fixed runtime issue with the latest "Links" text browser. Updated all components with their latest stable versions. Minor update on the Felix start-up script. Documentation updates. Note that the scripts still need better documentation, especially the "overlay" related scripts. 2016-10-13 18:48:29 +03:00

d9e9aa5311 Updated the helper QEMU scripts to use more RAM. This needs further investigation since 64MB should be enough. 2016-07-30 20:42:50 +03:00

a97748a7e7 Merge pull request #31 from cirosantilli/qemu-memory-128 
Use -m 128M for qemu-system-x86_64

20422b117d Config cleanup - all overlay software is disabled by default (needs even more cleanup). Added 'todo' note to refactor the ISO generation script. Updated the kernel to the current stable version. 2016-07-30 20:32:31 +03:00

eab050fec2 Use -m 128M for qemu-system-x86_64 
Otherwise boot fails with:

    Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs or unknown-block(0,0)

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

75d8b27cc4 Forgot to add the new script for the GLIBC overlay bundle. This is related to the previous commit. 2016-05-23 22:52:39 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
69fb870da0 Fixed the overlay bundle generation process. Added GLIBC as overlay bundle - set of all core GNU C libraries. 2016-05-23 22:49:17 +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
Ivan Davidov
9f7dd0cf57 Added more message files. Updated the initramfs scripts to use the new message files. 2016-05-20 22:04:02 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
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

19c54e2411 The tty ANSI code for the welcome message is set to 0 (disabled) because VirtualBox seems to execute 'respawn' tasks along with 'once' tasks (concurrency issue). However, in QEMU this feature works perfectly fine. 2016-05-11 00:17:18 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
0c8b4e3502 Added ANSI escape codes for some messages. This works both in standard and graphics modes. 2016-05-10 23:56:25 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
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

c83c5d6b25 Better messaging in the init sequence scripts. 2016-05-05 02:08:18 +03:00

1baa860c2d Added helper 'make' target which automatically produces 'tar.xz' source archive. The 'tar.xz' format will replace the current 'zip' format. 2016-05-04 21:38:11 +03:00

fcb0eeb3d4 Make sure we always return to the source folder. 2016-05-04 19:48:33 +03:00

25568226f8 Changed the logic which decides where to place the dynamic loader. Other minor script improvements. 2016-05-04 19:30:03 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
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
Ivan Davidov
e6b5e215f0 Changed the kernel version to the most recent stable one. Updated all README files. 2016-05-03 21:19:25 +03:00
Ivan Davidov
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
Ivan Davidov
3fd9ada9a9 Several information message improvements. 2016-04-30 21:50:26 +03:00
