MX/antiX Arch ISO Template

This repository packages an Arch ISO template used by MX/antiX snapshot and remaster workflows. It ships a prepared bootloader tree and a placeholder arch/ layout that is populated at build time.

What’s Included

• arch-iso-template/ — the template filesystem used to build the ISO.
• arch-iso-template/boot/grub/ — GRUB configs, themes, and boot assets.
• arch-iso-template/arch/README — expected layout for the Arch ISO files.
• build.sh — builds a distributable Arch package containing the template.

Build

Build the package from the repo root:

./build.sh --arch

To write artifacts to a custom directory:

./build.sh --arch --out /path/to/output

The package is written to build/ by default.

Expected Arch Layout

The arch-iso-template/arch/README file documents the expected layout. In short, the build process expects files like:

• arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz-linux
• arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img
• arch/x86_64/airootfs.sfs

Additional optional metadata files are described in the README inside the template.

Notes

• build.sh uses makepkg and assumes a working Arch-style packaging toolchain.
• Large binary assets under arch-iso-template/boot/grub/ are vendored; update them only when intentionally changing boot visuals or configs.
