Hi!

I am creating a custom cd with apache1-modperl1, apache2-modperl2 and zope installed into /usr/local. As this was my first try, I found that I couldn't start apache, because of read-only filesystem :P Anyways, in an effort to get around this, I thought about cp-ing these dirs out to /ramdisk, and then symlinking back to /usr/local/apache, etc. I have successfully created the dirs in /ramdisk, copied everything from the cd to /ramdisk, but have found that the symlinks fail, (for the same reason). Now I am thinking that I want to add the symlinks into the miniroot.gz, but have found that I can't add symlinks into it when it is mounted (-o loop)...

Does anyone have an idea on how to modify the existing miniroot.gz, to include symlinks to /ramdisk/...?

thanks,
speeves
