make it bootable with UEFI and BIOS?
compare sizes of glibc and musl installations
try running multiple MC versions on musl
need xdg menu maker?
ideas:
use shell script for init, call real init via exec
system lives on squashfs
-> overlayfs with tmpfs set up at boot
-> new system image generated and written back on shutdown
-> user-selectable ("Do you want to save changes to the system? This will take some time.")
-> fstrim (if applicable)
swap on zram
f2fs for home
tmpfs for package cache, /tmp, logs?
when backing up
- do not cross file system boundaries
- exclude /tmp, package cache, logs
Steps to install:
- (user does this:) boot Void installer
-> log in as root
-> connect to the internet
-> download and run install script
- preparations:
-> update xbps
-> install xmirror squashfs-tools
-> make our own or extract (if feasible) kb selection and time zone selection to hijack them for our purposes
- select kb layout
- set up disk
-> select disk from a list
-> warn user about formatting and making the USB stick unusable with Windows
-> allow user to double check that its the USB drive
-> wipe and partition disk (new gpt)
-> 2M BIOS GRUB
-> 268M ESP
-> 1G /boot
-> rest /container
-> format partitions
-> ESP FAT32
-> /boot and /container F2FS
- mount them things
-> set up plain tmpfs as / for now
- install base system
-> select mirror
-> just use xmirror and get the result from the file
-> if musl repo, remove that bit from repo url
-> select installation type (x86_32/x86_64/aarch64, glibc/musl)
-> if musl, add that bit to repo url
-> install packages

-> configure XBPS mirror
-> configure sudo
-> drop a file with "%wheel ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL" in /etc/sudoers.d/sudo_group
-> configure overlayfs setup
-> startup script
-> shutdown squashfs updater
-> rc.shutdown?
-> configure fstab
-> /boot, /boot/efi
-> /home (bind mount)
-> NOT /, /container
-> configure rc.conf
-> keyboard layout
-> hardware clock set to UTC?
-> configure time zone while were at it
-> selection dialog?
-> symlink /etc/localtime
-> configure host name
-> configure and install bootloader
-> if x86 install for both UEFI and BIOS
-> Is there a way we can make this work with 32-bit AND 64-bit EFI at the same time?
-> if ARM install only UEFI
-> xbps-reconfigure -fa
-> prepare 2nd stage installation
-> auto login root
-> put script in .bashrc
-> build squashfs
-> (if needed) set up an initramfs with busybox to mount the squashfs/overlayfs at boot time
- prompt user to reboot to finish installation
- second stage installation
-> configure services
-> dbus
-> NetworkManager
-> acpid
-> ask user to connect to network using nmtui
-> install packages

-> terminal?
-> browser?
-> prism launcher
-> java (multiple versions?)
-> pipewire (pulsemixer?)
-> ask about nvidia driver
-> install if needed
-> ask whether to use CTWM or IceWM
-> short description of up and downsides
-> if CTWM, also install
-> xclock
-> if IceWM, also install
-> network-manager-applet
-> sound applet
-> configure zram swap
-> passwd -l root
-> populate /etc/skel
-> ultimate bashrc bc why not
-> first run message in xinitrc
-> auto-deletes itself
-> displays README.txt on root dir of the F2FS partition
-> if using CTWM
-> put xclock in xinitrc
-> configure more sane defaults
-> prepend bashrc with a thing that checks of xorg is running
-> if not, run startx and ask user whether to shut down, reboot, or do nothing afterwards
-> set up user
-> ask for username
-> run useradd (non-interactively)
-> run passwd (interactively)
-> add to groups
-> including sudo group
-> build new squashfs image and reboot
