I wrote a mostly command based but fully complete manual to remaster the knoppix DVD. Here it is:
Code:The first WORKING!! Knoppix DVD remaster Guide WITH X-Desktop. (c) 2005 by ArkoN <www.ArkoN.ch> Boot your knoppix with a window manager(thats needed for a working XF86Free-Config-4 file) The DVD Filesystem CANT!!! handle files bigger than 2 GB make a 25GB ext2 Partition and name it sda1(or whatever you want) then remaster it with these commands: su - mount -rw /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 mkdir /mnt/sda1/knx cd /mnt/sda1/knx dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1M count=5500 mkswap swapfile swapon swapfile mkdir -p /mnt/sda1/knx/master/KNOPPIX mkdir -p /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX mkdir -p /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX2 cp -Rp /KNOPPIX/* /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX cp /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX2 /mnt/sda1/knx/master/KNOPPIX/ cp /cdrom/index.html /mnt/sda1/knx/master/ cd /cdrom && find . -size -15000k -type f -exec cp -p --parents '{}' /mnt/sda1/knx/master/ \; cp /etc/dhcpc/resolv.conf /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/dhcpc/ cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/X11/ vi /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config change "allowed_users=console" to "allowed_users=anybody" /etc/init.d/xsession stop // Now we start the chroot into the directory chroot /mnt/sda1/knx/source/KNOPPIX mount -t proc /proc proc // check with the command date your date.
