Remastering CD Puzzlement
Hello Fellow Remasterers,
I've been wondering why one would go through all the steps,
- swapfile
- all the mounts ("bind" or otherwise).
- chroot
which make the procedure an order of magnitude more
- complicated
- error prone
- lengthy
instead of
- just simply staying in the original environment
- making the desired changes
AND replacing
cp -rp /KNOPPIX/* $PFAD/knx/source/KNOPPIX
with
cp -rp /UNIONFS/* $PFAD/knx/source/KNOPPIX
rsync -aH ...
...
when done setting up the new (to be remastered) system before
the "regular" steps,
genisoimage -input-charset ...
etc.
I'm probably missing something (big), but so far any
remastered CD of v7.0.4 set up according to my wishes
based on the above simpler procedure works without a hitch.
Thanks
P.S.
1. My "wishes" above would be, for example, removing
a few "non-essential" (for me) packages (like cuneiform-common,
smbclient, etc.) to replace iceweasel and make room for
the latest full firefox (15.0.1).
2. I notice some other people have provided "non-chroot" solutions.
They've been harder to follow for me as being graphical (as opposed to command line).
I apologize to the authors for any overlap and any similarities are purely
coincidental.
