| 3 | ## Getting the base ISO |
| 4 | |
| 5 | This script assumes that you are starting with the special ISO from the |
| 6 | following URL. It already contains video files that the script in this repo |
| 7 | will not try to download. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | <http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso> |
| 10 | |
| 11 | The corresponding source code ISO can be found here: |
| 12 | |
| 13 | <http://jenkins.trisquel.info/makeiso-etiona/iso/trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso> |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Feel free to test your download with the `trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso.sha256` |
| 16 | file in this repo: |
| 17 | |
| 18 | sha2565sum -c trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso.sha256 |
| 19 | sha2565sum -c trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso.sha256 |
| 20 | |
| 21 | ## Making a bootable USB drive |
| 22 | |
| 23 | This should work on an external USB drive, ideally one that is 12 GB or greater |
| 24 | in size. Note that using a loop device will probably not work, partly due to |
| 25 | the way syslinux behaves with loop devices. If you get that working, feel free |
| 26 | to submit a patch to <sysadmin@gnu.org>. : ) |
| 27 | |
| 28 | You'll need to download and install old versions of syslinux: |
| 29 | |
| 30 | * <https://mirror.fsf.org/trisquel/pool/main/s/syslinux/syslinux-common_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_all.deb> |
| 31 | * <https://mirror.fsf.org/trisquel/pool/main/s/syslinux/syslinux_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_amd64.deb> |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Check files, install them, and run the script: |
| 34 | |
| 35 | sha256sum -c syslinux.deb.sha256 |
| 36 | |
| 37 | dpkg -i syslinux-common_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_all.deb |
| 38 | dpkg -i syslinux_4.05+dfsg-6+deb8u1_amd64.deb |
| 39 | |
| 40 | sudo ./live-usb-loader.sh trisquel_9.0-fsf_i686.iso /dev/sdb |
| 41 | |
| 42 | ## Installing extra media, including Trisquel 9 source code |
| 43 | |
| 44 | sudo ./install-extras.sh trisquel_9.0fsf_sources.iso /dev/sdb |
| 45 | |
| 46 | ## Notes about video files and free space |
| 47 | |
| 48 | You may wish to transcode the downloaded videos to save space on the member |
| 49 | card, in particular `lp2020_kahle.webm` and `lp2020_younghackers.webm`. |
| 50 | |
| 51 | ffmpeg -i foo.webm -acodec libvorbis -b:a 64k -vcodec libvpx -vf scale=-1:720 -b:v 800k -preset medium foo_smaller.webm |
| 52 | |
| 53 | # check to make sure that the video quality is okay |
| 54 | mplayer foo_smaller.webm |
| 55 | |
| 56 | mv foo_smaller.webm foo.webm |
| 57 | |
| 58 | Then optionally update the checksum file for `/mnt/fsf/GNUAV/`: |
| 59 | |
| 60 | cd /mnt/fsf/GNUAV/ |
| 61 | sha256sum ./ > ../checksums.sha256 |
| 62 | mv ../checksums.sha256 . |
| 63 | |
