How to build ISO

You need to use an installed EndeavourOS system or any archbased system with EndeavourOS repository enabled.

As the installer packages and needed dependencies will get installed from EndeavourOS repository.

Build

1. Prepare

If you want the last release state to rebuild ISO you need to use specific tag tarball. https://github.com/endeavouros-team/EndeavourOS-ISO/tags

If not you will use latest "unstable" development state.

use last stable release (exemple for 22.12.2 Cassini nova Release)

wget https://github.com/endeavouros-team/EndeavourOS-ISO/archive/refs/tags/22.12.2.tar.gz
tar -xvf 22.12.2.tar.gz
cd "EndeavourOS-ISO-22.12.2"
./prepare.sh

Or use latest unstable debvelopment (git) by clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/endeavouros-team/EndeavourOS-ISO.git
cd EndeavourOS-ISO
./prepare.sh

2. Build

sudo ./mkarchiso -v "."

or with log:

sudo ./mkarchiso -v "." 2>&1 | tee "eosiso_$(date -u +'%Y.%m.%d-%H:%M').log"

3. The .iso appears in out directory

Advanced

To install locally builded packages on ISO put the packages inside directory:

airootfs/root/packages

Packages will get installed and directory will be cleaned up after that.
