    LiveCD/USB HELP

    Dear Forum members:

    I just purchased a used copy of Linux All-In-One Desk Reference that comes bundled with a bonus DVD and in it is a Knoppix directory:

    \KNOPPIX_4.02\

    *************

    There is NO mention of creating a LiveCD or LiveUSB of the Knoppix directory listed above.

    Q: Is there any way to create a Live 'backup' version, from the information provided?

    Kind Regards,
    luther

    I think the first question would be if the bonus DVD is already bootable.

    It seems that the files necessary for a KNOPPIX 4.0.2 live CD are included. Therefore it should be possible to create an ISO image that could be used to burn your own KNOPPIX 4.0.2 live CD.

    Dear klaus2008:

    The bonus DVD has many 'soft' errors, but has booted to a prompt, where knoppix 4.0.2 can be launched. The included 'Debian-31r1-i386-binary-2.iso' was burnt, but the created LiveCD did not boot! The purpose of this post is to create a KNOPPIX 4.0.2 ISO image, which was not on the bonus DVD.

    My attempt to create a Legal backup of the bonus DVD failed to boot, also:

    dd if=dev/sr0 of=linux_aio.img


    cdrecord dev=/dev/sr0 speed=1 linux_aio.img

    ISO LINUX: DISK ERROR 80, AX=4259, DRIVE 9F
    BOOT FAILED: PRESS A KEY TO RETRY . . .
    I need an older version of Knoppix, like 4.0.2, to boot on older hardware that does not have a DVD-ROM. Therefore, any clues to create an ISO image of this Knoppix 4.0.2 directory?

    Regards,
    luther

    You can try to sort the files from your DVD like this pattern. Now use from Remaster HowTo the last part

    Code:
    #! /bin/sh
    # Path to partition you will work on
    PFAD="/media/sda1"
    # Update the file hashes used by the "testcd" boot option
    cd $PFAD/knx/master ; find -type f -not -name \
      sha1sums -not -name boot.cat -not \
      -name isolinux.bin -exec sha1sum '{}' \; > KNOPPIX/sha1sums
    # Create new Knoppix ISO
    genisoimage -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX" \
      -b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 \
      -boot-info-table -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat \
      -o $PFAD/knx/remastered.iso $PFAD/knx/master
    Set the variable "PFAD" as you need it. Perhaps this will work?

    @luther:

    I don't think you have to sort the files.

    I think it would be a good idea to create a new directory 'knx402' on an HDD. In that directory create a subdirectory 'master'.
    Copy the directory KNOPPIX and its subdirectories from the DVD to the 'master' directory.

    In a terminal change to the 'knx402' directory and remove the file master/KNOPPIX/isolinux/boot.cat
    Use the program genisoimage to create a bootable ISO image.
    Code:
    genisoimage -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX"  -b KNOPPIX/isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4  -boot-info-table -c KNOPPIX/isolinux/boot.cat  -o ./knx402.iso ./master
    Burn the new ISO image on a CD-R and try it out.

    I hope that helps.

    Dear klaus2008:

    I have a functional LiveUSB KNOPPIX 7.0.3, created from the CD footprint. If you could provide more details on mounting the HDD (sda1) and the complete path to the 'knx402' directory on it, would be helpful, since my background is bloated windows.

    I would like to do everything from the Knoppix 7.0.3 root, so Standards are kept. Would this be your preferred syntax, to burn the new ISO:

    Code:
    cdrecord dev=/dev/sr0 speed=1 /dev/sda1/knx402/knx402.iso
    THX 4 HLP!

    Dear klaus2008: The 'boot catalog' directory is a requirement, that is missing:
    Code:
     knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ sudo genisoimage -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX"  -b KNOPPIX/isolinux/isolinux.bin -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -c KNOPPIX/isolinux/boot.cat -o ./knx402.iso /media/sda1/knx402/master 
     I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings) genisoimage: Uh oh, I cant find the boot catalog directory 'KNOPPIX/isolinux' ! 
    knoppix@Microknoppix:~$
    Can this error flag dialog be rectified? Please verify the above genisoimage syntax . . . Yours, luther

    Hi, luther!

    I mounted Knoppix 4.0.2 CD with the filemanager. Its mount point was /media/sr0. My HDD was mounted at /media/sda1.
    I opened a root terminal and issued
    Code:
    mkdir -p /media/sda1/knx402/master
    cp -a /media/sr0/* /media/sda1/knx402/master
    cd /media/sda1/knx402
    mv master/boot/isolinux master/KNOPPIX
    rm master/KNOPPIX/isolinux/boot.cat
    rmdir master/boot
    mkisofs -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX" -o knx402.iso -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -b KNOPPIX/isolinux/isolinux.bin -c KNOPPIX/isolinux/boot.cat master
    Booting from this new ISO image was impossible. I got an error message from isolinux.

    I rebooted Knoppix 7.0.3 CD, mounted my HDD, opened a root terminal and changed to /media/sda1/knx402. I issued
    Code:
    mkdir master/boot
    mv master/KNOPPIX/isolinux master/boot/
    mkisofs -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX" -o knx402.iso -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat master
    This time it was possible to boot from this ISO image.

    Now I am convinced that isolinux expects the linux image in the directory boot/isolinux, but does not search in another directory like KNOPPIX/isolinux.

    After you have booted Knoppix from USB you can use the filemanager to mount your HDD. I suppose it is mounted at /media/sda1.

    The bonus DVD can also be mounted using the filemanager. I suppose that you can find its root directory at /media/sr0.

    Then I would open a root terminal and issue the following commands.
    Code:
    mkdir -p /media/sda1/knx402/master
    cp -a /media/sr0/KNOPPIX /media/sda1/knx402/master
    cd /media/sda1/knx402
    mkdir master/boot
    mv master/KNOPPIX/isolinux master/boot/
    rm master/boot/isolinux/boot.cat
    mkisofs -l -r -J -V "KNOPPIX" -o knx402.iso -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -b boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin -c boot/isolinux/boot.cat master
    Burn the new ISO image on a CD-R and try it out.

    Hey klaus2008!

    Knoppix 7.0.3 LiveUSB had a fit with the second instruction:

    Any clue about the root cause of this catistrophic I/O Error? Also, what can be done to eliminate text formatting problems, when posting? It is VERY FRUSTRATING!

    How long does it take to write a valid 800MB ISO file?
