Ideas

General

  • Graphics
  • We could use same config files for BIOS and EFI (except for default)
  • Problem with 19.10 live (can't mount NFS root as "Network is unreachable"

Arch repo

  • The goal is to provide automatically latest versions of Arch Live through PXE
  • In order to avoid downloading from Internet, we should have it on PXE server
    • Like we did before with the ISO
  • So we need to move the Arch web server to PXE server
  • Our Arch update script must be modified to mount PXE server via NFS and perform the updates
    • Wait, wait... Why not just mounting system-side?
    • Direct benefit: no 502 when updating from clients
  • We add an iso directory in the repo with the files we need
  • How do we update it?
    • We can either extract the ISO (a few ipxe files missing) or download the files directly
    • It would be nice to be automated
  • How to boot?
