Building

Prequisites

  • Arch Linux, SDesk, or another Arch-Derived Distribution
  • The archiso package
  • OPTIONAL (But recommended): The qemu-full package for testing the disk image

Compiling the Disk Image for the first time

Run the following command to build the SDesk disk image:

sudo ./build.sh

If you want to build an image with NVIDIA driver support, run this command instead:

sudo ./build_nvidia.sh

Recompiling the Disk Image

Run the following commands to rebuild the SDesk disk image:

sudo rm -rf ./work
sudo rm -rf ./out
sudo ./build.sh

Again, if you are rebuilding with NVIDIA driver support, run these commands instead:

sudo rm -rf ./work_nvidia
sudo rm -rf ./out_nvidia
sudo ./build_nvidia.sh

Testing

UEFI

Run the following command to test the SDesk disk image with QEMU emulating UEFI and using GRUB:

run_archiso -u -i "ISO PATH GOES HERE"

BIOS

Run the following command to test the SDesk disk image with QEMU emulating BIOS and using SysLinux:

run_archiso -i "ISO PATH GOES HERE"
