MX Snapshot - 2 features requests [Solved]

[~FLOW~]

I have a new build, would you guys be kind to give it a spin?

Changelog:
* Make it possible to select different checksum, not all or nothing
* Provide more info about compression algorithms

I find these 2 options very useful. The log file is gone again :) no longer in the iso folder.

https://github.com/MX-Linux/mx-snapshot ... _amd64.deb

Changelog:
* Make it possible to select different checksum, not all or nothing
* Provide more info about compression algorithms
* Remove code targetting versions < Stretch
* Add optional customization for name of the project, version, date, codename, boot options

(I was talking to dolphin_oracle to maybe hide the optional customization items under a drop down but I think there are not too many items, at least they fit without problem in the GUI, and it might be good to show users what options are available).

Thank you Adrian, I will try the new version.

I didn't change anything that would affect the log file, it might be a timing issue the shutdown might trigger before the file is written if you use automatic shutdown.
@~FLOW~ I added a "sync" before the shutdown that should help.
Here's the new build: https://github.com/MX-Linux/mx-snapshot ... _amd64.deb

Thank you ... but all the tests I did were without the shutdown option...

Then there's a misunderstanding, the log is copied only when you use the shutdown option... I don't copy it to the ISO folder otherwise, you should find it in /var/log/mx-snapshot.log since you are still running the system. I won't change that.

ooooooohhh OK :)))))
true true ! Fair enough.
Thnak you.

... FI: Tested your latest version, and it is perfect here. (tested with .md5 , not .sha512 )

Thanks for testing, I will do one more update to actually update /etc/mx-version and /etc/lsb-release using the entered strings in the first page -- right now it just changes the GRUB menu names without touching those files.

New debs here, should come shortly from the repo:

... Good idea too ... now it is at least the topic "Re: MX Snapshot - 6 features requests" ;-)
