| =Prerequisites= | | <br /> |
| | =Overview= |
|
| |
|
| Before we began. You need Kernel linux44 or newer.
| | Sometimes for no apparent reason users face the following dmenu problem: |
| | <br /> |
| | A. When calling dmenu from a key binding in their environment dmenu comes up but when they continue to select anything in dmenu, it disappears from the screen and does not execute anything. |
| | <br /> |
| | B. Trying to start dmenu from the terminal, the error <pre>"warning: no locale support"</pre> appears. |
|
| |
|
| It is recommend to download the latest version of [https://sourceforge.net/projects/manjarolinux/files/?source=navbar Manjaro Distribution].
| |
|
| |
|
| | =Solution= |
|
| |
|
| ==Install manjaro-tools-iso==
| | Assuming that you have correctly set up your system's LOCALE settings, here is a simple solution to this problem: |
| | <br /><br /> |
| | Edit file /usr/bin/dmenu_run |
| | <pre>sudo nano /usr/bin/dmenu_run</pre> |
|
| |
|
| To get started you need to download the following packages.
| | Add a line setting your LANG variable tou your actual language locale: |
| | | <pre>LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"</pre> |
| * '''manjaro-tools-base'''
| | and save. |
| * '''manjaro-tools-iso'''
| | <br /> |
| * '''manjaro-efi-shell'''
| | <br /> |
| * '''manjaro-isolinux'''
| | !!! If you have used the MHWD utility to configure your graphics card, then there will be a file 90-mhwd.conf. For the changes you have made in file 20-keyboard.conf to work, you have to edit this file and comment out the line with the XkbOptions, in section InputClass, as below: |
| | | <pre> |
| | | Section "InputClass" |
| ==Install manjaro-iso-profiles==
| | Identifier "Keyboard Defaults" |
| | | MatchIsKeyboard "yes" |
| You will also need to download manjaro-iso-profiles from Package Manager.
| | #Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp" |
| | | EndSection |
| There are three manjaro-iso-profiles packages to choose.
| | </pre> |
| | |
| * '''manjaro-iso-profiles-base'''
| |
| * '''manjaro-iso-profiles-community'''
| |
| * '''manjaro-iso-profiles-official'''
| |
| | |
| You can choose any profiles you want.
| |
| | |
| We're going to choose <code>manjaro-iso-profiles-official</code> along with XFCE to help you understand what you need to do.
| |
| | |
| We do not recommend downloading profiles from GitHub. It may not work for you while building. But, if it does work for you. That's fine.
| |
| | |
| =ISO profile=
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==ISO profile overview==
| |
| | |
| Open Thunar Root and go to this directory.
| |
| | |
| /usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce
| |
| | |
| Let's take a closer look at the XFCE profile folder (marked above):
| |
| | |
| ~ >>> ls -lAgo /usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce
| |
| drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 16 feb 19:52 '''desktop-overlay'''
| |
| lrwxr-xr-x 1 33 16 feb 19:52 live-overlay -> ../../shared/manjaro/live-overlay
| |
| lrwxr-xr-x 1 28 16 feb 19:52 mkinitcpio.conf -> ../../shared/mkinitcpio.conf
| |
| -rw-r--r-- 1 5115 16 feb 19:52 '''Packages-Desktop'''
| |
| lrwxr-xr-x 1 26 16 feb 19:52 Packages-Live -> ../../shared/Packages-Live
| |
| lrwxr-xr-x 1 26 16 feb 19:52 Packages-Mhwd -> ../../shared/Packages-Mhwd
| |
| lrwxr-xr-x 1 26 16 feb 19:52 Packages-Root -> ../../shared/Packages-Root
| |
| -rw-r--r-- 1 2400 16 feb 19:52 '''profile.conf'''
| |
| | |
| * '''desktop-overlay''': After every successful installation of your ISO the files and folders in here will get copied over.
| |
| * ''live-overlay'': Similar to ''desktop-overlay''. Files and folders in here will only get copied over to the LiveCD of your ISO.
| |
| * ''mkinitcpio.conf'' holds the information of all needed kernel modules.
| |
| * '''Packages-Desktop''': This file contains packages for the ISO installation. All packages will also get installed on LiveCDs.
| |
| * ''Packages-Live'': This file contains packages, which will only get installed on the LiveCD.
| |
| * ''Packages-Mhwd'': This file contains Mhwd packages important to all Manjaro installations and LiveCDs.
| |
| * ''Packages-Root'': This file contains base packages important to all Manjaro installations and LiveCDs.
| |
| * '''profile.conf''' contains basic settings for your ISO installation and LiveCD.
| |
| | |
| As you have probably noticed, all files and folders are readonly and several are only symlinks to the <code>shared</code> ISO profile. It is good practice to never change files or folders in the <code>shared</code> ISO profile. If you ever want to change them, first copy them to your ISO profile folder and delete the symlink.
| |
| | |
| All folders and files specific to your ISO are '''in bold'''. You can change them to your liking.
| |
| | |
| ==Modifying an ISO profile==
| |
| | |
| The most common places to tweak and customize an ISO profile are the 3 folders marked above: ''desktop-overlay'', ''profile.conf'', ''Packages-Desktop'':
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===desktop-overlay===
| |
| | |
| The ''desktop-overlay'' folder looks like this:
| |
| | |
| ~ >>> tree /usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce/desktop-overlay/etc
| |
| /usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce/desktop-overlay/etc
| |
| ├── fonts
| |
| │ └── conf.d
| |
| │ └── 70-no-bitmaps.conf -> /etc/fonts/conf.avail/70-no-bitmaps.conf
| |
| └── lightdm
| |
| └── lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf
| |
| | |
| 3 directories, 2 files
| |
| | |
| Go to this directory.
| |
| | |
| /usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce/desktop-overlay/etc/
| |
| | |
| Then create '''skel''' folder. This is where you can clone everything you see on your Desktop Screen to ISO.
| |
| | |
| After the ISO has been successfully installed all files and folder in ''desktop-overlay'' folder get copied over to the installed system. This includes settings/config files but also themes and backgrounds/pictures.
| |
| | |
| All files and folder in here will get copied to the home folder. Most hidden files and their structure in <code>/usr/share/manjaro-tools/iso-profiles/manjaro/xfce/desktop-overlay/etc/skel/</code> should be already familiar to you, because your home folder looks very similar.
| |
| | |
| ===Clone Custom Wallpaper Desktop===
| |
| | |
| To clone your Custom Wallpaper Desktop. Open a New File Manager and go to this file.
| |
| | |
| /home/<username>/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-desktop.xml
| |
| | |
| Change all image directories to where your Custom Wallpaper was located at.
| |
| | |
| /usr/share/backgrounds/<YOUR IMAGE HERE>
| |
| | |
| ===Example===
| |
|
| |
|
| <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
| | <br /> |
|
| |
| <channel name="xfce4-desktop" version="1.0">

| |
|
| This config file contains setting options. All default settings are commented. If you want to change them, uncomment them (remove the <code>#</code> symbol in front) and change it.
| | Resize the flag images you downloaded to 20x20 pixels and convert them to be of type xpm. |
|
| |
|
| The following settings are noteworthy:
| | <br /> |
|
| |
|
| * <code>initsys=</code> lets you choose between systemd and OpenRC. This setting is associated with the <code>>systemd</code> and <code>>openrc</code> flags in your package lists.
| | Rename the flag images to gb.xpm and gr.xpm for United Kingdom and Greece respectively. |
| * <code>multilib=</code> setting belongs to the <code>>multilib</code> flag in your package lists. multilib will install basic 32bit libraries on 64bit systems. This increases compatibility for 32bit applications on 64bit systems.
| |
| * <code>displaymanager=</code> sets the display / login manager your system uses. You need to list your display manager in your package list, too.
| |
| * <code>nonfree_xorg=</code> refers to proprietary graphics drivers.
| |
| * <code>plymouth_boot=</code> lets you activate Plymouth (the graphics displayed during boot). Do not forget the <code> plymouth</code> package in your package list.
| |
| * <code>pxe_boot=</code> activates PXE boot on your system. Since manjaro-tools 15.1, PXE is enabled by default and this flag is no longer needed.
| |
|
| |
|
| * <code>netinstall=</code> activates an additional package selection in calamares. These packages will be downloaded and installed during the installation of the ISO (besides the packages in Packages-Desktop and Packages-Xfce). The list of packages gets chosen from [https://github.com/manjaro/calamares-netgroups this Github repository] according to your ISO profile. Look for a file called <code>packages-systemd.yaml</code>.
| | <br /> |
|
| |
|
| * <code>chrootcfg=</code>: If both <code>netinstall=true</code> and <code>chrootcfg=true</code> are set, the ISO will become a pure net install. This means that '''no''' packages from Packages-Desktop, Packages-Xfce, Packages-Mhwd, and Packages-Root will get installed during installation. Instead, Calamares offers a comfortable selection screen, where all packages (to be downloaded from a Manjaro mirror and installed on your system) can be selected. Please refer to the following guide for more detailed instructions: [[Build Manjaro Net-Install]]
| | Copy the flag images into the folder /home/jimmy/.config/xxkb that you have previously created. |
|
| |
|
| * <code>kernel=</code> lets you set the installed kernel. Do '''not''' include any kernels in your package list! This setting is all you need.
| | <br /> |
| * <code>enable_systemd=</code> let's you set systemd services, which get started on the installed system (and with a similar setting on the livecd). A similar setting is available for OpenRC.

| This file contains a list of packages, which will get installed on your installed ISO (XFCE) '''and''' the LiveCD (the packages in Packages-Live file only get installled on the live ISO). This is a package list with Xfce specific packages (and packages you like to add to your custom Manjaro ISO) of multiple package lists in your ISO profile. The other package lists are more generic.
| | and save. |
| | |
| You can add or remove package names from this list as you like. You do not need to worry about dependencies when adding package names, just make sure the package name is spelled correctly and the package is available in the Manjaro repositories.
| |
| | |
| <code>#</code> marks a comment. The rest of the line after the <code>#</code> symbol gets ignored.
| |
| | |
| <code>>i686</code> is a flag and marks a package, which will only get installed on the 32bit version of your ISO (XFCE).
| |
| | |
| <code>>x86_64</code> marks a package, which will only get installed on the 64bit version of your ISO (XFCE).
| |
| | |
| ===Adding AUR packages===
| |
| | |
| If you want to add AUR packages to your ISO, you need to create a online repository and add it to the right <code>pacman-XXXXX.conf</code> file in <code>/usr/share/manjaro-tools/</code>
| |
| | |
| [https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=Buildiso_with_AUR_packages:_Using_buildpkg Buildiso with AUR packages: Using buildpkg]
| |
| | |
| =manjaro-tools.conf=
| |
| | |
| <code>manjaro-tools.conf</code> is the central configuration file for all tools part of ''manjaro-tools''. Only edit the general and the "buildiso" part to not exceed the scope of this tutorial. If you are not sure what and how to edit it, do '''not''' edit it. You can always use arguments with the <code>buildiso</code> command later.
| |
| | |
| By default, the systemwide config file is installed in
| |
| | |
| /etc/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf
| |
| | |
| Additionally, a userconfig <code>manjaro-tools.conf</code> file can be placed in your home directory here:
| |
| | |
| ~/.config/manjaro-tools/manjaro-tools.conf
| |
| | |
| If the userconfig is present, ''manjaro-tools''/''buildiso'' will load the userconfig values, however, if variables have been set in the systemwide config file, these values take precedence over the userconfig. Best practice is to leave the systemwide file untouched. By default it is commented and shows just initialization values done in code.
| |
| | |
| | |
| =Build your ISO=
| |
| | |
| Build your ISO with the following command:
| |
| | |
| buildiso -p xfce
| |
| | |
| You need to specify the name of your ISO profile after the <code>-p</code> argument. In this case, it is <code>xfce</code>.
| |
| | |
| If the build process fails with an error, start it again.
| |
| | |
| Attention: The build process needs at least 10 minutes to complete or much longer when you are using HDDs, slow CPUs, or large ISOs.
| |
| | |
| | |
| When the build process finishes successfully, the ISO file and the package list will appear in this folder:
| |
| | |
| /var/cache/manjaro-tools/iso/
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===Example:===
| |
| You can use arguments with the <code>buildiso</code> command for more build options:
| |
| | |
| buildiso -p xfce -a i686 -b stable
| |
| | |
| * <code>-a</code> let's you build for other architectures. Here, it builds a 32bit ISO image on a 64bit host system. You can also set this in your <code>manjaro-tools.conf</code> file.
| |
| * <code>-b</code> let's you specify the branch. You can also set this in your <code>manjaro-tools.conf</code> file.
| |
| | |
| You can find other examples of builds using different arguments for ''buildiso'' [https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=Manjaro-tools#buildiso here].
| |
| | |
| | |
| =Cleaning your hard drive=
| |
| | |
| After a successful or failed build, you can get rid of most data (the "raw" ISO with all downloaded packages) by deleting this folder:
| |
| | |
| sudo rm -r /var/lib/manjaro-tools/buildiso/
| |
| | |
| | |
| To clean your system of packages files of packages not installed on your system (this includes all the package files downloaded for your custom ISO):
| |
| | |
| paccache -ruk0
| |
| | |
| | |
| You can also manually look into
| |
| | |
| /var/cache/manjaro-tools/
| |
| | |
| and delete folders or files to your liking. If you want to delete all ISO images, package lists, and cached Xorg packages do:
| |
| | |
| sudo rm -r /var/cache/manjaro-tools/
| |
| | |
| | |
| Please remember that all these packages and files are saved for your convenience. If you clean your system like suggested above, you have to download '''all''' packages and build '''all''' images again the next time you want to build your own Manjaro ISO.
| |
| | |
| | |
| By default, your <code>manjaro-tools.conf</code> file is saved. If you want to delete it, use
| |
| | |
| rm -r ~/.config/manjaro-tools
| |
