mkiss

MKiss is a rolling release distro, however, I've been asked to release a tarball so I thought I'd create a release with it as well.

Attached is a tarball created from a chroot which is ready to be booted. Logins are mkiss:mkiss or root:mkiss. To make it work:

• create a boot and system partition
• mount the root and boot partition (boot partition under /<newroot>/boot)
• extract the tarball onto the new system environment
• chroot into the new environment (you can use the bundled kiss-chroot script)
• adjust /etc/fstab, /boot/loader/entries/mkiss-chroot.conf, set your hostname
• link your timezone to /etc/localtime
• install systemd-boot using bootctl install
• change the name of the interface in /etc/systemd/network/00-dhcp.network if you want DHCP
• add the locales you want into /etc/locale.gen, use locale-gen to generate them and specify your main system locale in /etc/locale.conf

The chroot ships most core packages needed for an operational system as well as the tools needed to (re-)build them. The only packages that can't be rebuilt are libpcap due to its bluez dependency (which needs libpulse->libx11) as well as libsecret (which needs gobject-introspection -> cairo -> libx11).
