This README file is ignored/unknown by most users, and contains valuable information for live-enviroment, about features, boot-methods, transfer/dump iso, etc... Put it in a visible location.

or maybe copy to ${install_dir}/archiso.txt (/arch/archiso.txt) then a symlink in /root/archiso.txt to /run/archiso/bootmnt/arch/archiso.txt so archiso.txt can be easily readable just by opening the ISO. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

This is better. /root/archiso.txt is a bad location IMO, maybe use /usr/share/doc/archiso/README or so?

How about making it a man page? Tom

I never did a man page, If you can tell me what are the steps to do, I will be really happy :) I know I can do it by hand, but I have understood that there are utilities to simplify the work. Anyway a plaint-text, should be on the ISO filesystem. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

Well I said visible, really visible. Just to see when "ls". -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

maybe is time to, introduce boot options in f1.txt/f2.txt for syslinux... But I want to do this without duplication. For example I thinking in split archiso/README is README.boot, README.pxe, README.build, README.issues, etc... -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1
