A very useful capability worth an additional package. articles: arch-installation: Fix security risk 2025-10-17T08:54:34Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-17T08:54:34Z urn:sha1:e661ab6a846a881afd9148eb2ce0cdfb53c20d20 This makes sure only the `root` user can modify contents of the `/boot` partition and only the `root` user and members of its group can read the content. Otherwise on `bootctl install` two warnings were raised. articles: arch-installation: Remove serial support 2025-10-16T20:29:14Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T20:27:26Z urn:sha1:bc55f7f6e3886bb2a1f4faab3502b3209e114486 The Linux kernel uses the last `console=` kernel command line parameter as the "primary console". Only on that one the LUKS unlock prompt is displayed. Thus at the moment only one of the two consoles (serial / graphical) can be fully supported. Graphical is chosen since it is the more "default" option which should work everywhere. Full dual-support is appreciated and might be possible to implement in the future. articles: arch-installation: Use qemu-img dd 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T18:35:31Z urn:sha1:85cfcdc1b231992897fe9fb1f5e026acbd99a665 This avoids saving a multi-gigabyte image file to disk and streams directly to the target block device. articles: arch-installation: Add nftables firewall 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T18:15:06Z urn:sha1:7a1a5d7f1aab5e4968c0d7d6559a80552d3a39b0 nftables is a modern Linux firewall software. It is enabled by default using the package-provided default rules. articles: arch-installation: Remove htop 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T18:09:04Z urn:sha1:1d17177c3a694e7b252a858e3454c8e5ec07b249 This can be installed on demand. `top` is anyway available. articles: arch-installation: Switch to vi 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T18:08:11Z urn:sha1:4c5f4c37904dd81debf6fd5f95ae6c8b40ca9b6f This replaces nano as editor. articles: arch-installation: Use systemd networking 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T13:37:49Z urn:sha1:112a0d6266f50a0fd0026732ca9e6fedde78687d This switches from: - NetworkManager - chrony to: - systemd-networkd - systemd-resolved - systemd-timesyncd - iwd This reduces the required packages, moves to more minimal software and allows convenient configuration based on simple text files. articles: arch-installation: Switch to UEFI 2025-10-16T18:36:25Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-16T13:21:20Z urn:sha1:3cad1aa44bd3e6ec13090de2d87c00d625c6520a This is an incremental step towards secure boot and modernizes the boot process. Furthermore less packages have to be installed, the bootloader configuration is simpler and everything is file-based instead of `dd`ing into the master boot record directly. articles: arch-installation: Enable serial console 2025-10-15T18:04:48Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-15T18:04:48Z urn:sha1:6b365ca625f5e726df97f47ce8ef45566d09e6bd This allows to use the final system with Qemu's `-nographic` option. This is more convenient since no keyboard layout has to be configured and text can be copied and pasted. articles: arch-installation: Switch to GPT 2025-10-15T17:57:48Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-10-15T17:57:48Z urn:sha1:2fb9455afd7bf87b8d53d8ea64faee439447f50f This allows to use bigger drives like 4 TB and above. articles: Add qemu-arch-installation.md 2025-10-04T19:08:51Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-04-27T10:29:51Z urn:sha1:4ef4cb49bf5e8a49c814695763f3aabfce9168ad Add iot-content-go 2025-08-02T13:32:37Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-08-02T13:02:47Z urn:sha1:95aff83bb144bd324c943ccba38a18c56e80f581 git: Add parts-kicad 2025-01-07T18:44:22Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2025-01-07T18:44:22Z urn:sha1:4341dc3ccae6c76e6146bb9c8e2688eb0fae9378 git: Rename art-inkscape to graphics-inkscape 2024-12-15T13:36:32Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2024-12-15T13:36:32Z urn:sha1:d907bd1edd26e06a81af17eb765d3564e45d6b3d Add commit to Go source tags 2024-11-29T10:24:10Z xengineering me@xengineering.eu 2024-11-29T10:24:10Z urn:sha1:082b42b256c6e791408134374ba2d807028707df This makes sure always the correct source code revision is selected for links from the API doc to source code.
