How to make a custom ISO of Knoppix 6.7

[ashickur.noor]

I have install Knoppix 6.7 in my Laptop, and install some extra packages. Now I want to make it a iso to install it in other pc's and live boot with those packages that I have installed. In Ubuntu I can do it easily by remastersys. But here nothing found.

I have install knoppix 6.7 in my HDD, and install some other software. Now I wamt to make it a iso to distribute it to other. How can I make it?

If all you want is to make some modifications and move them around, why do you want to go all the way to an ISO? Could there be easier alternatives?
I'd like you to answer that, and take things from there. You can find quite a lot of material on these issues on the forums here.

I think ISO is the best choice for me. Is there any way to make it. Can any body give me some link of these topics.

Can any body help me. I am trying to make a customize iso of knoppix 6.7 from my HDD install knoppix, but nothing found suitable in the forum. Please help me.

... if you have a lot of time try Debian Remastersys.

The well tested way to remaster Knoppix is described in Remaster HowTo (without chapter 3!); alternative you can use my scripts. Be aware, to remaster Knoppix DVD you need a free partition of at least 25GB size or a virtual drive of 25GB within VirtualBox.

Thanks for your reply. Are you confirm that Debain Remastersys will work here? Remaster HowTo is for Remastering from live CD, not for from installed knoppix in HDD. I have such partition free space of 50 GB but the partition is not complete empty and I can not move those data. So can I use your script?

No, I never tried Debian Remastersys and I can not say, if it will do the job. But you told us, you have experience with Ubuntu Remastersys; therefore you will be able to solve all troubles which may occur with Debian Remastersys.

With my scripts you need

1. a Knoppix HD Installation (you allready have)
2. a decompresses filesystem image at '/opt/knx/remaster' (will be done by the scripts)
3. all the bootloader stuff at '/opt/knx/' (will be done by the scripts)
4. repeat installation and purge of all programs and tools within the chroot jail, as you did within your HD Installation (it's your job)
5. build the new ISO (will be done by the scripts)

When I was trying your script in the first step "kn-prepare" it is asking for knoppix CD, now what will I do?

... it's all explained step by step on my page "summary.html". In case of error please tell me detailed, what didn't work.

Here is the result of the " kn-prepare" command. I am trying to make my installed knoppix 6.7 with some extra packages from HDD. I am not using virtual box, and I have not put any cd in the ROM as well.

mount: /dev/sr0: unknown device
If CD can't be mounted
please mount it within pcmanfm-filemanager
