Right now I'm still working on better understanding the archboot scripts, refactoring that code to make it reusable and building an automated, prescripted installer for myself. ( Once the basics are working, it should actually be very simple to port the current archboot scripts to this system. )
Just to let you know, the archboot scripts are no longer the preferred way of doing this. Additionally, installation should (hopefully) be unrelated to how the medium was booted. Archboot really just controls how an ISO boots. Please see the archiso and installer projects in git.
Forgot this part: Other than that, this looks awesome! Great work
Thanks, Ok, pretty silly.. I was looking at all the projects yesterday, I must have overlooked the 'installer' repo, because after some searching I eventually found the scripts in a subdirectory of the archboot project, so I called them that way ( http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=archboot.git;a=tree;f=installer ) Yesterday I've been working on splitting up the quickinst and setup scripts in functions, which are now in files sourced as 'libraries' by the fifa main program. Now I just need to put the pieces together, and probably hack some more to get it working. PS: Does anyone know what license the installer scripts are under? (http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=installer.git;a=tree ) Fifa is gplv3, is it okay if I put a note that says I took the sources from above repository and modified/refactored them a bit, giving credit to the original author ( Tobias Powalowski ) ?
