Hi, thank you all for all the replies. There is a tool called grml-debootstrap that I have been using for a while and am quite used to it. I'm just too lazy to learn something new, especially it is a complected tool, and under active development. I understand that it would not be supported, but hope, after all, the last step, which builds an iso out of a chroot system, can be more open to other well built chroot systems. thank for all other comments as well, guess I've got more reading to do... cheers -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
