I now have access to archiso.git, any issues in pushing these changes?

I done some test and all works: * build i686 and x86_64 iso. * build dual iso. * boot i686 and x86_64 (all syslinux options works) * boot dual (all syslinux options works, and also autodetection) * boot with newer options for loop support (with and without copytoram) * all tests done with default install_dir "/arch" and under random name "/pepito". * also just for see image size I build images with sqfs compressed with lzma, of course this does not boot at this moment.

core-dual look like: http://djgera.pastebin.com/vYMCuM6w core-i686 look like: http://djgera.pastebin.com/5puDe02m

As you can see now both single and dual, share the same directory scheme.

Thanks.

looks good to me (although i don't know much about archiso). i have only 1 remark: https://github.com/djgera/archiso/blob/1635eacfe7b6bf24727798df5abdd3fbd80dc... maybe at line 11 put a line echo "waiting for blockdevice ${img_dev} to become available" ?

Thanks for review. True, or directly using poll_device() function provided by mkinitcpio that does all. I don't know why I not used this neither here and in pxe [#1] hook (actually in master). I will do these changes, and test how works. [#1] https://github.com/djgera/archiso/blob/1635eacfe7b6bf24727798df5abdd3fbd80dc... -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

All changed pushed to master now. So next test isos will have the new directory scheme. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1

TODO: split syslinux.cfg in some files and support basic keyboard remap at syslinux stage. (compared to directory scheme changed, this will be a minor change from "devel" view, and major from "user" view) This may be included in next .iso or in next-next...

aif-git has improved a bunch lately (incl. nilfs2 support), but there are some things still on the roadmap like btrfs support and gpt/uefi. although i don't mind if the latter gets delayed. I like (U)EFI support, but I don't have any real hardware to test. :( There's also some other stuff holding me back (pending nilfs patch for initscripts, nilfs-utils/btrfs-utils should be able to get installed on user systems (move them to core repo?) etc) I never used/involved these FS.
