boot into customized kernel before creating compressed fs?

[redss]

There is no way to test a remaster by booting into it BEFORE creating the compressed filesystem, is there?

sure it is .. it's written in remastering howto, how to do it

Are you sure?

Per the remastering FAQ, after the stage where you chroot and apt-get, you have to do "mkisofs" before you can follow the tip further down on the screen entitled "Tip, test cd-image without recording cd"

I'm talking about booting INTO the remaster, not just chrooting to it...
