calamares \- distribution-independent system installer
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
[\fI\,options\/\fR]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
is a distribution-independent system installer, with an advanced partitioning
|
|
feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations. It is the
|
|
first installer with an automated “Replace Partition” option, which makes it
|
|
easy to reuse a partition over and over for distribution testing. Calamares is
|
|
designed to be customizable by distribution maintainers without need for
|
|
cumbersome patching, thanks to third party branding and external modules
|
|
support.

The first configuration file is
|
|
.BI settings.conf
|
|
which is located in one of the configuration locations.
|
|
When started with \fB\-d\fR
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
looks in the current directory for a settings file.
|
|
When started with \fB\-X\fR
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
looks in the directories specified by
|
|
.BI XDG_CONFIG_DIRS
|
|
for a settings file.
|
|
If no settings file is found elsewhere,
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
looks in pre-configured directories like
|
|
.BI /etc
|
|
\fB\fR.
|
|
|
|

The command-line arguments for
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
are primarily for developers convenience and should not be needed
|
|
in nearly any situation in which
|
|
.B calamares
|
|
is deployed. Most live CD environments and OEM installations should
|
|
have installed configuration files in their correct system-wide locations.
