There is an interesting development effort called Refracta which may
interest some of the more advanced Knoppix forum members. This effort
is concerned with the progression of the iso of a live system with
persistence to a subsequent iso which embodies the combination of an
original iso with the contents of a persistence element. Refracta has
three cardinal elements: refractasnapshot, refracta2usb & refractainstall.
Quoting from a Refracta README:
Refracta purports to be broadly applicable to most any Debian or Debian-likerefracta2usb:
Creates a live-USB from a live-CD iso file or from a running
live system.
refractainstaller:
Installs a running live CD or USB to hard drive, copying any additions
or changes that were made during the live session.
refractasnapshot:
Makes a bootable live-CD image from your installed system, copying any
additions or changes you've made to the system.
live system. There is some correlation with Debian.Live, where it seems
that Debian.Live focuses more on using a live system to achieve an hdd install,
whereas Refracta focuses more on persistence and the progression of isos of
a live system from one level of development to another through 'snapshots'.
In the Refracta clique, initial isos are referred-to as 'firmware'.
This may be where the action is these days that we used to call re-mastering.
I know that Debian.Live uses squashfs as part of its magic, so a lot of this
may be familiar stuff to those who are fond of remastering, and have had
some hankering to experiment with squashfs as a cloop replacement.
I've not seen the Refracta code, so these are my impressions from auditing
Refracta and Debian.Live forums and reading a few .deb README files.
