Ok I have remastered Knoppix as well as made a "shirt pocket" edition by re-remastering "Kix".Now I am ready to really put some thought in to the question "what would be my dream cd" and get to work first on a mini then on a standard 700meg cd.I wont get long winded about it here (but do on my homepage) so here is my question :
Does anyone have a package list for a knoppix "base install"? I would like to start with only the bare minimum bootable live Knoppix base and then add what I want.Wouldnt that be cool to have a live base with basic network/ppp apt and cloop so when we remaster we dont have to remove anything but instead can just add the packages we want and make our disk.
Another option is to start with the debian woody mini-iso but its not live and dont have cloop and just aint Knoppix.I think I can make it live with the debian package called "bootcd" but it still wont be a bootable compressed fs so we couldnt pack much into a mini.Even a bootable Knoppix text console only would be cool if it had apt and cloop with a boot image to boot the compressed fs along with an optional install to hdd script.
Is anyone instersted in helping build such a base cd or am all alone here.I am going to do this but it will take much longer alone.
