This release brings major improvements.

Because of namely @joshskidmore whom is able to provide binaries for the kernel and more, regularly, and with the patch needed to boot live. The build process can be simplified.

So in the future if a new update comes to the kernel that is an improvement to the install, a new build can be built and released in tens of minutes.

Bigger than that, that change trickles down to the installed system. From this release we provide @joshskidmore repository by default. If you wish to upgrade your existing arch install to his repo the steps are.

1. remove your current repo from /etc/pacman.conf (or comment it out)

2. add the following repo

   [gpd-pocket-arch]
   SigLevel = Never
   Server = https://github.com/joshskidmore/gpd-pocket-arch/raw/master

3. run these commands to upgrade and swap the packages correctly

   sudo pacman -Suy gpd-pocket-alsa-lib gpd-pocket-linux-jwrdegoede-docs gpd-pocket-linux-jwrdegoede-headers gpd-pocket-support gpd-pocket-scrolling
   sudo pacman -R linux-jwrdegoede linux-jwrdegoede-docs linux-jwrdegoede-headers

Fix for regex problems. I have never been able to reproduce that problem before so I cant be totally sure its working properly for everyone now.

Next release for the build script will fetch the newest kernel.
Thusly also the new kernel space fan driver (ground work to remove the current driver already done)

2017.12.12

First release of archiso for the GPD Pocket. Even if this is outdated you be installing the latest version of archlinux. Therefore this will not be updated in tandem with upstream archiso. Updates may be released when there is incentive to do so because of improved GPD support during install, or gpd-setup script becomes outdated. (gpd-setup script only tries to fix gpd pocket specific issues, to make installing more like already supported device).

Repository

This repository is needed to host packages needed for the building of the ISO.
