This is the repository from which the Electric Tantra Linux Live ISO is built, using scripts that have been borrowed from the kind folks behind HRMPF, a Void Linux based rescue disk (much of the functionality of which is retained here).
Unlike its inspiration, this ISO is not intended as a rescue system enabling the restoration of hardware but is mainly intended as a means of demonstrating my particular, opinionated AwesomeWM configuration to interested third parties who can run the ISO in a virtualized setting or as a live disk and thus get a sense of the way my configuration works within its overall environment.
I also use this ISO on my Ventoy USB as a means of installing my system when I break it playing around with things I shouldn't or what not, thus the rescue system functionality is retained.
- all the features of hrmpf, a rescue disk, baked in
To build your own copy of the ISO (or to acquire it for modifications all your own)
git clone https://github.com/the-Electric-Tantra-Linux/electric-tantra-mklive
cd electric-tantra-mklive
# edit the rootfs files, the electric.packages file and
# mktantra.sh file to make it your own
sudo bash mktantra.sh Depending on your hardware, this may be a shorter or longer process. The longest part will be the package installation most likely, but only for the first build and afterwards you'll have a xbps-cachedir-x86_64 folder with the packages stored in it that cuts down the build time considerably.
