SystemRescue
Project website
Homepage: https://www.system-rescue.org/
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 and for additional fixes and features to be present. You can find the required archiso version and patches in the "patches" folder in this git repository.
The package list contains packages which are not part of the official binary package repositories. These packages need to be built from sources from the AUR website. These sources are made of at least a PKGBUILD file and quite often other related files, such as patches. These can be built using the makepkg command which generates binary packages. These binary packages must be copied to a custom package repository which can be hosted locally using httpd or nginx. The repo-add command must be used to generate the repository package index. The pacman.conf file must be updated with the address of this repository so custom packages can be accessed.
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.
