Release 1.1.0
Changes in this release:
- Now uses kernel 4.0.4 from gentoo-b2-sources (the standard gentoo-sources, with gentoo-b2-kernel-patches applied);
- All packages brought up to date against the Gentoo tree, as of 22 May 2015;
- Overlay management has been migrated to the new Portage plug-in sync system (from layman);
- Configuration files in
/etc/portage/...
have been migrated to a directory/sub-files structure (now the default in the Gentoo installation media); - The workaround to enable net-misc/dhcpcd to compile with v4 kernel headers has been implemented (please see here);
- The rear button can now be used to power-off the B2 (due to this fix in gentoo-b2-kernel-patches);
- The contents of
/etc/fw_env.config
have now been set correctly; this was preventing (e.g.)fw_printenv
working correctly on the B2; - Scripts have been supplied to simplify HDD installation, for those who wish to do so (this remains entirely optional). They are
/root/install_on_sda.sh
and/root/install_on_sda_gpt.sh
. - The
ssh
host keys have been removed from the image, for security (they are now auto-generated on first boot); - The same image may now be used to boot both standard and diskless B2s (shifted to UUID-based naming).
