Simplified remaster 3.8.2

Setting up for Remastering

Based on the Knoppix Remastering Howto

This remastering assumes that you are running Knoppix 3.8.2 and have at least 5 GB of free space on a partition at $knx_dev which will be mounted at $knx_mnt.

Boot from the Knoppix CD

boot: knoppix 3

knx_dev=/dev/hda3
knx_mnt=/mnt/hda3
# Mount the partition:
mount -o rw,dev $knx_dev $knx_mnt
# Create a root directory to work in -- if you put all your files here it will be easy to clean up
mkdir $knx_mnt/knx
cd $knx_mnt/knx

# make a 1 GB RAM swapfile
dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1M count=1000
mkswap swapfile
swapon swapfile

# make two target folders: one for the course and one for the final master CD
mkdir -p $knx_mnt/{master,source}/KNOPPIX

# Now, copy the KNOPPIX files to your source directory :
cp -a /KNOPPIX/* $knx_mnt/source/KNOPPIX

find /cdrom/ -size -10000k -type f |
xargs cp -a --parents --target-directory=$knx_mnt/knx/master/

# setup some preliminary files
# /etc/fstab
grep -e '\/proc' -e '\/sys' /etc/fstab > $knx_mnt/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/fstab
cat $knx_mnt/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/fstab
# /etc/resolv.conf
cat /etc/resolv.conf > $knx_mnt/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/dhcpc/resolv.conf
cat $knx_mnt/knx/source/KNOPPIX/etc/dhcpc/resolv.conf

# "chroot" into the copied KNOPPIX
chroot $knx_mnt/knx/source/KNOPPIX
