When you set a "sysrescuecfg" option on the boot command line before this change, only the files given on the boot command line were read, not the files in the sysrescue.d dir. But previous versions of sysrescue-configuration.lua had a set of built-in default values, these were still used. Current sysrescue-configuration.lua does not include default values anymore, they are now all in 100-defaults.yaml. So it is better to always read the default values from the sysrescue.d dir and just merge files given with the sysrescuecfg option additionally, with a higher priority. The sysrescuecfg now also allows absolute paths for local files. When using relative paths, the common sysrescue.d dirs are prefixed. In this case the file will usually be loaded again, but at a higher priority. |

Project sources
This git repository contains SystemRescue sources files. This is based on https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/
Building SystemRescue
SystemRescue can be built for x86_64 or i686 architectures. It must be built on archlinux if you want to build a 64bit edition, or archlinux32 if you want to create a 32bit edition. The following packages must be installed on the build system: archiso, grub, mtools, edk2-shell, hugo.
You need to use a modified version of archiso for the build to work. This
version is provided in the custom sysrescuerepo repository. See the
pacman.conf file in the source. Either copy the sysrescuerepo section
into your /etc/pacman.conf or replace the whole /etc/pacman.conf file with
the one from the source. Install archiso afterwards.
The package list contains packages which are not part of the official binary
package repositories from Arch Linux. These packages are also provided in the
sysrescuerepo repository. If you want to rebuild them, see
systemrescue-custompkg.
Create a local repository out of them with repo-add, host it on a webserver
and then adapt pacman.conf.
The build process requires the systemrescue-website repository which is included
as git submodule. So when checking out this repository, make sure to check out
the submodule too. This can be done for example with
git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/systemrescue/systemrescue-sources.git
The build process can be started by running the build.sh script. It will create a large "work" sub-directory and the ISO file will be written in the "out" sub-directory.
Building SystemRescue with docker
If you are not running archlinux, you can run the build process in docker
containers. You need to have a Linux system running with docker installed
and configured. You can use the scripts provided in the docker folder of
this repository.
You must export the environment variable named sysrescuearch before you
run the two helper scripts. It should be set as either x86_64 or i686
depending on the target architecture for which you want to build the ISO image.
After this, you need to run the script which builds a new docker image, and
then the script which uses this docker image to builds the ISO image. The second
script will pass the arguments it receives to the main build.sh script.
For example you can build a 64bit version of SystemRescue in docker using these commands:
export sysrescuearch="x86_64"
./docker/build-docker-image.sh
./docker/build-iso-image.sh -v
Including your SystemRescueModules
If you want to include your own SystemRescueModules, place their srm files in the srm directory of the repository before running the build script.
