Releases no longer ship as bootable ISOs. Archipelago updates are
distributed as the backend binary plus a frontend tarball referenced by
releases/manifest.json. Nodes OTA-update via scripts/self-update.sh.
Filebrowser and AIUI remain bundled inside the frontend tarball and
deployed atomically, verified present in v1.7.43-alpha release artifact
(189 AIUI files, filebrowser-client bundle).
Archived under image-recipe/_archived/ (resurrectable if ISO distribution
is reintroduced):
- build-auto-installer-iso.sh
- build-unbundled-iso.sh
- test-iso-qemu.sh
- scripts/convert-iso-to-disk.sh
- BUILD-ISO-STATUS.md, ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md
- branding/isohdpfx.bin
- .gitea/workflows/build-iso-dev.yml
Updated release process docs to drop ISO references:
- scripts/create-release.sh (next-steps text)
- docs/BETA-RELEASE-CHECKLIST.md
- docs/hotfix-process.md
- README.md
scripts/create-release.sh orchestrates the full release process:
1. Validates SemVer version and clean git state
2. Bumps version in Cargo.toml and package.json
3. Builds frontend
4. Generates changelog from git log
5. Creates release manifest via create-release-manifest.sh
6. Commits version bump and tags release
Supports --dry-run for preview. ISO builds delegated to server.
