2d51fd8319 Merge pull request #44 from AwlsomeAlex/patch-1
The kernel configuration file is overwritten when building on 64-bit host environment. This fixes the issue by adding the new configuration line to the ".config" file instead of overwriting (by mistake) the whole file.

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

f27d4994fe Added the Syslinux 'mbr.bin' as binary dependency in the installer. 2016-10-16 14:23:44 +03:00

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

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
