raspbian-ua-netinst v1.0.6
Releasing version 1.0.6 of the Raspbian unattended netinstaller.
This release fixes the following issues:
- Updated the kernel used during installation to 3.12.
- The kernel modules needed as dependency of other modules are now dynamically determined.
- Lots of documentation corrections/improvements/etc.
- Set the console blank timeout to 1 hour so that (normally) the whole installation process can be viewed.
- Added script which handles kernel upgrades. This fixes issue 88 and issue 89
- Changed permissions on log file so it is not world readable any more. This fixes issue 106.
This release also adds the following new functionality:
- Introduction of the
config
directory. Files and folders placed in that directory are made available in/boot/config/
for further processing during the installation.
It is strongly recommended to place all your configuration files and folders inside theconfig
directory. - When building the installer the
config
directory,installer-config.txt
andpost-install.txt
are automatically packed inside the generated image/archive, so you won't have to do that manually afterwards any more. - Added support for the serial console on the installed system. This fixes issue 57. The serial console can also be used during installation, but you'd have to modify
cmdline.txt
for that (place thettyAMA0
parameters at the end). - Timing of the start/end and the durarion of the installation.
- Also create images compressed with bz2 which should be easier to use on a Mac.
Other changes:
- Added @goranche as official collaborator to the project.
- Code re-organization for better maintainability.
- Added workaround for non-working busybox-static (full story).
