when backing up

|
|
|
|
- do not cross file system boundaries
|

|
|
|
- exclude /tmp, package cache, logs
|

|
|
|
- possibly only save the changes in separate squashfs images
|
|
|
|
|
- either until it takes up too much space or until a certain number of images exist
|
|
|
|
|
- consolidate when the user requests it or when exceeding the limit

Steps to install:
|
|
|
|
|
- make our own or extract (if feasible) kb selection and time zone selection to hijack them for our purposes
|
|
|
|
|
Stage 1:
|
|
|
|
|
- select kb layout
|
|
|
|
|
- install base system
|
|
|
|
|
-> select installation type (x86_32/x86_64/aarch64, glibc/musl)
|
|
|
|
|
-> if musl, add that bit to repo url
|
|
|
|
|
-> configure overlayfs setup
|
|
|
|
|
-> startup script
|
|
|
|
|
-> shutdown squashfs updater
|
|
|
|
|
-> rc.shutdown?
|
|
|
|
|
-> configure time zone
|
|
|
|
|
-> selection dialog?
|
|
|
|
|
-> symlink /etc/localtime
|
|
|
|
|
-> set up an initramfs to mount the squashfs/overlayfs at boot time
|
|
|
|
|
-> prepare 2nd stage installation
|
|
|
|
|
-> auto login root and put script in .bashrc
|
|
|
|
|
-> better method?
|
|
|
|
|
-> auto login root and put stage 2 script in .bashrc
|
|
|
|
|
-> build squashfs
|
|
|
|
|
- prompt user to reboot to finish installation
|
|
|
|
|
- second stage installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stage 2:
|
|
|
|
|
-> configure services
|
|
|
|
|
-> dbus
|
|
|
|
|
-> NetworkManager
