[[Category: Remastering Knoppix ]]
+
==Preamble==
  
−
This HOW-TO is to create a Live CD using the Debian debootstrap utility to install your base, and then to further work towards a complete LiveCD of your preference.
+
So far I have created a script to boot from Knoppix, then debootstrap and create a new livecd.
 +
This in time will be further simplified to debootstrap to livecd.
  
−
==Pretense==
+
==Script==
−
It is assumed that you have the understanding:
+
#!/bin/bash
−
*Vi or a similar editor
+
SOURCEDIR=/mnt/hda1/source
−
*BASH [http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html|BASH Programming howto]
+
MASTERDIR=/mnt/hda1/master
−
*You have a Knoppix 4.0.2 ISO
+
−
*512MB Memory, possibly more or less
+
−
*5 gigs of hard drive space (maybe less)
+
  
−
The goal of this remastering method is to create a custom live-cd that involves only the applications you desire.
+
mkdir ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX
−
*If you do not require X why have it take space?
+
mkdir ${MASTERDIR}/KNOPPIX
−
Other goals of this project is to stem a new set of live-cd's to perform a specific function
+
−
*Instant SAN: iSCSI, ATAoE, HyperSCSI, start the live-cd and share the devices at the block level.
+
−
*Instant NAS: NFS, FTP, HTTP, SAMBA, Appletalk (netatalk)
+
−
*Instant VM: Instant Virtual Machine, Rapid administration for system provisioning.
+
−
*much much more.
+
  
−
=='''Begin'''==
+
debootstrap --arch i386 sid ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX http://http.us.debian.org/debian
−
First create a working directory, in this examle we will use <code>/mnt/hda1/source/KNOPPIX</code>
+
−
*choose a mirror of your choice: http://www.debian.org/mirror/list
+
−
*Also choose a release of your choice, either stable, testing, or unstable.
+
−
*Choose the binary type, i386 or x86-64, power pc, etc.
+
−
In this example I have chosen my mirror to be ftp://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian and I have chosen my release to be stable
+
−
to run debootstrap
+
−
debootstrap --arch i386 sarge /mnt/hda1/source/KNOPPIX ftp://ftp.egr.msu.edu/debian
+
−
next you will want to mount your proc directory
+

===proper method===
+
−
Modify the following file:
+
−
/etc/apt/sources.list
+
−
and insert:
+
−
deb http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/ ./
+
−
deb-src http://developer.linuxtag.net/knoppix/ ./
+
−
is this a mirror?
+
−
deb-src http://debian-knoppix.alioth.debian.org ./
+
−
deb http://debian-knoppix.alioth.debian.org ./
+
−
and lastly install the knoppix packages.
+
−
apt-get install ${KNOPPIX_PACKAGES};
+
−
 
+
−
===work-around method===
+
−
Since The mirrors I have to obtain the knoppix scripts are not functional (I can't connect, mirror is down), I am using ''dpkg -l'' to see what is installed for each package that was installed on the cd. From that list of packages I use ''dpkg --listfiles'' to see what files and directories each package has.
+
−
 
+
−
To copy over the files from the knoppix packages on the cd to the bootstrap installation:
+
−
for PACKAGE in ${KNOPPIX_PACKAGES}; { \
+
−
  for ITEM in `dpkg --listfiles ${PACKAGE} | grep -v "\.$"`;
+
−
  {
+
−
    if [ -d ${ITEM} ];
+
−
    then
+
−
      mkdir -p ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX${ITEM};
+
−
    else
+
−
      cp -ax ${ITEM} ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX${ITEM};
+
−
    fi;
+
−
  };
+
−
};
+
−
 
+
−
Copy passwd files
+
−
cp -ax /etc/passwd* ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/.
+
−
cp -ax /etc/group*  ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/.
+
−
cp -ax /etc/shadow* ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/.
+
−
Copy inittab
+
−
cp -ax /etc/inittab ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/.
+
−
Copy a few other initscripts (i'm not sure yet from which package these files come from)
+
−
 
+
−
cp -ax /etc/init.d/knoppix-autoconfig ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/init.d/.
+
−
cp -ax /etc/init.d/knoppix-halt ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/init.d/.
+
−
cp -ax /etc/init.d/knoppix-reboot ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/init.d/.
+
−
cp -ax /etc/init.d/networking ${SOURCEDIR}/KNOPPIX/etc/init.d/.

Preamble

So far I have created a script to boot from Knoppix, then debootstrap and create a new livecd. This in time will be further simplified to debootstrap to livecd.
