Global and local lists (for packages) in live-builder
Hi, I work myself a lot with package lists when creating different debian live images. I guess a lot of you do it in a similar way so far some well proved predefinded list would make creating of images faster. 1. Thanks a lot @ Daniel for implementing the local user specfic list of packages (a29). 2. As discussed during FrOSCamp 2010 (ETH) some additional lists included in live-builder would be helpful for live-builder users. I have defined some additional package list I need often: - latex and latex-light (for small images) - awesome - env-cn - env-ru - vbox-ose - net-utils - vnc-utils - sys-utils - dev-utils - debug-utils - pdf-tools - dev-qt4 What lists would make sense to be included in live-builder from your point of view? Please add your own proposals and/or modify lists I used (s. above) I can manage this issue if you like. Thank you for your help and ideas. 3. @ Daniel: you have prepared such list like net-pxeboot already (FrOSCamp). Are you going to include it (and maybe some more) in a30?

Re: Global and local lists (for packages) in live-builder
Ben,
Thank you very much for your answer, ideas and hints.
For benefit of others here are some excerpts what I answered on irc:
# ---
SynrG, as you wrote a lot I can't simply answer with one
sentence ;)
1. I am missing some "global" lists .. too many lists don't
disturb me at all. I don't need to use them.
But it would be helpful for me to have some specific lists
from other people (in case I would need them in the future)
I try to save my time and time of other people with some
additional lists that could be
included in live-builder - it is just an idea to share your own
knowledge and profit yourself from knowledge of others
2. I don't think my lists are the most important and great ;)
if some other people would have similar requirements and ideas
why not include some most useful of them?
3. I would like to keep even such lists like debian-science and
debian-junior
4. due to latex - if you are new to latex you don't have any
idea what packages you need. As I would like to use the live
image also as an install image (for offline installations)
it would be a source for me what packages I need for latex
(e.g.) After few months you will forget some details
I wrote above that you can use a live image as a customized install
image
for off-line installations
I don't know any other solution than live-builder to create
such customized install images
if you make a "standard" install and install after some
additional packages you will need an internet access or just to
play disc-jockey for installing packages what are normally on
the second, third etc disc
debian live is just for users with their different requirements
# ---
Best regards
Mark

For the benefit of others that missed the earlier irc conversation,
here are some excerpts:
07:19 < SynrG> take it up with the individual maintainers of each of
those things. need a
different subset of latex? there are latex maintainers.
there's no reason such a
list should be useful for live systems but *not*
non-live systems
07:22 < SynrG> similarly with awesome, if an awesome-desktop
metapackage is something people
could agree on and would be generally useful, it should
be in the archive ...
07:23 < SynrG> not languishing in the realm of debian-live where few
people will ever find it
07:24 < SynrG> the lists we have either have broad applicability (our
-desktop lists for
example) to a large userbase and differ from the
standard tasks only in that they
also include stuff *specific to a live image* ...
07:26 < SynrG> or are lists addressing a need tied to a special
working group within debian
which itself has a goal to produce a live image
('debian pure blends' like
debian-science or debian-junior)
07:26 < SynrG> i guess 'studio' falls in this category too
07:28 < SynrG> or in the rare case address some 'appliance' niche
specifically well-suited to
live media (the 'rescue' list is what i'm thinking of)
07:29 < SynrG> the other lists there are very basic building blocks of
the other lists
(standard, standard-x11, minimal, for example)
07:30 < SynrG> so as you can see, the lists are a very narrowly chosen
subset of the entire
universe of possible lists. there is no desire to grow
these lists beyond what we
have there now, and i would argue in some cases we may
even need to *reduce* what
we have there ...
07:31 < SynrG> i am not certain there is any reason to continue to
support the junior lists, for
instance, since that project is orphaned and nobody has
stepped up to take it
further.
07:31 < SynrG> the only reason they've not been removed is (so far)
nobody has had any
complaints. but at the first sign of trouble, i'd drop
them in an instant.
07:34 < SynrG> ironm: can we finally close this issue? the marvellous
thing about debian-live is
that *infinite* variations of lists are possible.
*every* user thinks their own
lists are the greatest and probably wants to share them
with the world. and we
already link to other users of debian-live on the site
so that people can borrow
liberally from each others' lists, and that's not very
hard for users to find
(and keeps the maintenance of said ...
07:34 < SynrG> ... lists where it belongs: with the users who
originated them)

there apparently seems to have been a wrong merge from casper in
live-config which reverted it to 999 instead of using 1000. this is
fixed now in git, thanks for indirectly spotting it.
Thank you very much!

Re: Patches included - Re: live-build3 a3 "--binary-pool true" error
There is new error message in the install syslog (to HDD) so please hold on and *don't apply patch-lb3-binary-pool_lb_binary_rootfs.diff* until I check it again! - thanks for your understanding. The error indicates that the content of "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/live-media.list" on the live image is correct for installing *offline* some additional packages from live mode to live mode *but not* when installing from live mode to HDD (my interpretation yet).

Re: Patches included - Re: live-build3 a3 "--binary-pool true" error
Due to the syslog of the installation with "DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer" there is a missing file on the image (see below) base-installer: Failed to fetch file:/live/image/debian/dists/sid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz File not found Another issue is that if I make an offline installation all the "deb http:// " entries in the source-file should be commented out during the installation to avoid an error message (or at least the resulting errors ignored).

live-build 2: Configuring 'grub-installer' failed with error code 30
Hi,
when installing to HDD (install from boot menu and using german) the
installation can't end (loop).
Below I attach a part of the syslog from the install to HDD (created
with DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer option)
When I get some more free time I can file a bug to the BTS.
regards
Mark

Why? - please read below as "normal" applies: # --- How would you rate the severity of this problem or report? 1 important a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone. 2 normal a bug that does not undermine the usability of the whole package; for example, a problem with a particular option or menu item. 3 minor things like spelling mistakes and other minor cosmetic errors that do not affect the core functionality of the package. 4 wishlist suggestions and requests for new features. # --- second, don't mess with the severity, the destinction between non-serious severities is entirely up to the descretion of the maintainer, not of the submitter. I can imagine that as a maintainer you are not happy about .. however nobody is perfect and it is a better way to correct the code than make long discussions about. No one really needs to show who is the alpha ... it will not help the debian live project. So I will stop the further discussion about this issue.

Please don't tell me again I should use auto/conf.
I am comfortable with my scripts and will move first to auto/conf when I have
more time.
In second step I will test the same config but using unpatched 3.0-a5.

In second step I will test the same config but using unpatched 3.0-a5.
As "lb build" stopped before comming to create the sources I will remove
local-media.list in the next run.
This test is related to another issue ("apt-get update" in source code
make troubles)
The test with 3.0-a5 gave the same troubles as the test above.

I could find no option in the supplied config that would do that. So unless I am missing something, there is an error in your config and not a bug here. That is, I would expect apt to attempt to generate indices for everything listed in /etc/apt/sources* -- isn't this what is supposed to happen? And yes, I see you have --binary-indices false, but that only governs the final disposition of indices when the image is built and does not guarantee that apt won't be run during the binary stage. If your intent is to add apt sources that aren't actually valid until the image is booted, then you must defer adding the sources lines to the binary image config until the image is booted too. Please fill me in on anything I may have missed that would invalidate my analysis. Ben I didn't check the current lb code. As I have included lists of packages (in binary_local-packageslists) to be placed into the local repo (without installing them in chroot-env) I was expecting that lb would handle it to create such file (and I mean that it happens also). The problem is that the whole "/live/image/debian/..." doesn't exist when you run "apt-get update" during "lb build". In my patch (I *didn't use it* for this test) I was commenting out the active lines in "live-media.list" before the lb code executed "apt-get update" and reverting it after as I don't know enough the flow in Daniels code. I have checked it many times and it was always working for me (my patch). This issue was just another one (s. subject line). I have had errors with "--source true" activated in the setting. With lb 3.0-a5 havn't got any errors more. I am just creating a live image with lb 2.0 to retest it as I had in the past also troubles with creating of the source file.

Understanding issues - Re: Bug#599879: live-helper: Live Builder does not create the user account
Jose, it looks like you don't understand some issues how live builder works (s. above) On 12.10.2010 12:56, Jose R R wrote: it does not matter how you name the user, the user is still created at runtime when you boot the image, not when you build it. Assuming an user that I *especified* as: "name-of_user", below is how I find it *and* I expect (if I understand the instructions appropriately) to be created in the final image. This is how I would check for its existence in the config/* resources: $ find debian_live/config/ -type f | xargs grep -i name-of_user debian_live/config/binary:# (Default: name-of_user) debian_live/config/binary:LB_USERNAME="name-of_user" Accordingly, if the "name-of_user" is not created in the final image, as it happened in my initial attempts, then something is wrong -with Debian Live scripts, the repositories, who-knows, etc.; but something is wrong. I replied to Juan how the problem was resolved from my perspective -in practical terms not in pedantic or theoretical ones. If you user recursive grep in you build dir/ you will find as follows (example with "ironm" as username): # ... r...@t60p:/home/ironm/live/dls5-i386-sid# grep -R ironm ./* ./binary/isolinux/live.cfg: append initrd=/live/initrd1.img boot=live config locales=de_DE.UTF-8 utc=no timezone=Europe/Zurich keyboard-layouts=de username=ironm quiet ./binary/isolinux/live.cfg: append initrd=/live/initrd1.img boot=live config locales=de_DE.UTF-8 utc=no timezone=Europe/Zurich keyboard-layouts=de username=ironm noapic noapm nodma nomce nolapic nomodeset nosmp vga=normal # --- The option "username=ironm" in live.cfg will cause creating of the live user during the boot proccess. If you want to have more users (with existing home dirs/ on the live image and maybe some content inside them) you could use local hooks (with adduser inside) to place them on the live image. To include files onto live image you can use local_includes. For example: I do it on my live images to include .icedove config and some other stuff. ... then probably this is the wrong place to ask and resolve issues since criticism of existing issues -for whatever reason- is highly questioned. I should consider the SuSE Studio appliance builder, then? http://susestudio.com/ please feel encourage to find the right tool for what you like to do. it might very well not be debian-live, or it might, i don't know. Thank you, I am beginning to consider alternatives. I don't think you "will be happy" with closed source "suse studio". I have been told that "grml" has a kind of good working live image builder however I didn't test it myself and don't know his limitations.

Re: Bug#600283: live-build: binary.img not created, incorrect sources.list
Josselin, it is an interesting and important issue (at least from my point of view). I would recommend you however to upgrade to the current version of all lb 2.0.x packages and build again. It is difficult and time consuming for the developer to support older versions. Looking forwards for your understanding ;) regards Mark Am 15.10.2010 16:17, schrieb Josselin Mouette: Package: live-build Version: 2.0.2-1 Severity: serious Justification: images don’t build without network access I define a mirror for the bootstrap phase. A mirror (the same) for the chroot phase. A mirror (still the same) for the binary phase. I make a configuration for a usb-hdd build. But in the end, live-build fails silently.

Hello, Because the standard wheezy kernel 2.6.39-2 doesn't support some xen options (like xen-pciback.hide) I have tried to use kernel 3.0-rc6 on the live image instead.

Live iso images with kernel 2.6.39-2 boot correctly (union=aufs) and work as expected. I have tested it on HP DL385g7 server and ThinkPad T60p notebook (same error). # --- live-boot will now start a shell.

Creating of ubuntu live image (on oneiric 11.10) with lb 3.0-a45 fails with: E: Unable to locate package console-common
Hello,
I hope you can give some hints, please. I try to create ubuntu live
images (*oneiric*) using *live-builder 3.0-a45* but even in the simplest
possibe configuration I am getting an error like:
E: Unable to locate package console-common
Simple auto/config results in the following output of "lb config":
[2012-03-11 13:31:58] lb_config noauto --mode ubuntu --distribution oneiric
I can "see" console common on the oneiric console:
root@oneiric:/tmp/live# apt-cache search console-common
console-common - basic infrastructure for text console configuration
More complex configuration (attached file config-live-oneiric) doesn't
work as well and gives the same error message.
There seems to be nothing special in binary.log (attached file binary.log).
What do I miss? Thank you in advance for any hints.
Regards, Mark

Hello,
Just another issue on ubuntu oneiric (11.10):
Setting up syslinux-themes-ubuntu-oneiric (1) ...^M
tar: /root/tmp: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
I used the simples configuration for the test:
root@oneiric:/tmp/live# cat auto/config
#!/bin/sh
lb config noauto \
--mode ubuntu \
--distribution oneiric \
"${@}"
I tried also with the following config option: *--syslinux-theme
"ubuntu-oneiric" *
#!/bin/sh
lb config noauto \
--mode ubuntu \
--distribution oneiric \
--syslinux-theme "ubuntu-oneiric" \
"${@}"
I have attached binary.log.
SettinG of symbolic link didn't help (s. below) .. due to:

For quick tests in live mode and using RAM-disk I created the following wheezy live image with lb3-a45-1. It can create "itself" using RAM disk if you have enough RAM (I placed its own config tree in /home/live/live). There is also some description how to do it and a short script.

Re: Wheezy fails to execute config scripts from //filesystem.squashfs/lib/live/config
Hi Андрій
Am 01.10.2012 10:47, schrieb Андрій Шинкарчук:
Hello debian-live and Daniel Baumann especially.
I'm working under wheezy-based netboot image with a live-* packages
from sid for my network.
After recent changes in live-config (after Septeber 27th) i can build
netboot image, but it fails to execute config scripts during boot
process and thus create live user and autologin to it.
Image built on 27th of september boots fine, user creation and
autologon is succesfull. Images built on 28th, 30th of September and
1st of October failed both to create users and autologin.
I can confirm similar issue when trying to build "normal" live images
for sid and wheezy on sid host.
The live user is not created during the boot process.
I used the following version of live build packages:
# ---
live-boot 3.0~b5-1
live-boot-initramfs-tools 3.0~b5-1
live-build 3.0~a61-1
live-config 3.0.7-1
live-config-sysvinit 3.0.7-1
# ---
I had to add the content of removed "#include
" lists to a new list in
"config/package-lists".
Just for test and as a workaround I used the following lines in rc.local
ot the boot image:
# ---

I see that there is a new "a62", however I can test it first today
evening or tomorror.
Additional info:
filesystem.squashfs image mounts succesfully into
${croot}/${imagename} that is //filesystem.squashfs directory (yes,
leading double slash exactly, i see `Begin: Mounting
"/live/image/live/filesystem.squashfs" on "//filesystem.squashfs" via
"/dev/loop0" ... done` during boot process)
filesystem.squashfs image also contains /lib/live/config/-*
scripts (including user-setup and so on) and /lib/live/config.sh with
presets (i mounted filesystem.squashfs and checked)
live-config package version 3.0.7-1 in 30th and 1st images versus
3.0.6-1 in fine booting 27th image.
I made a conclusion that config scripts were not executed because of i
see `localhost.localdomain` tty* prompts instead of autologinned
`user` at `debian` host and besides it i can't see output of locales,
user-setup and other scripts during boot time while 27th image have
it.
I have also checked recent
http://live.debian.net/cdimage/release/7.0~a1/amd64/netboot/ images
(kde). KDE boots, but i receive multicolor-dotted display with a
square instead of cursor on both tty7 and on tty1-6 (AMD E350 APU
graphics - drivers not included?) and kdm's login prompt at
`localhost.localdomain` for test KVM guest. So issue is 100%
reproduced both with debian-live server builds and my own builds.
It looks like for me that some errors were made while moving from
/live to /lib/live or some other. I can give any additional data
and/or information or 27th image if you request it.

Re: Decision 1 - Moving live mounts to subdirectory within /lib/live
Am 03.10.2012 09:51, schrieb Daniel Baumann:
Current Situation
-
1. filesystems mounted by live-boot
live-boot *mounts* the following things as of current sid:
/lib/live/image: the live media mounted read-only
/lib/live/rofs/filesystem.{squashfs,ext*,...}: the root fs image
/lib/live/overlay: the copy-on-write content from aufs
/lib/live/findiso: the loop-mounted iso image when using findiso
/lib/live/persistence/*: persistent devices with copy-on-write overlay
[nb: i've you havent followed live-boot recently, /lib/live was formerly
in / as /live, but we've moved that to /lib/live in order to not pollute
the rootfs with a non-FHS top-level directory]
2. code content in /lib/live
/lib/live servs as the directory that contains all the runtime code of
debian-live:
/lib/live/{boot.sh,boot/*}: live-boot
/lib/live/{config.sh,config/*}: live-config
/lib/live/debconfig/*}: live-debconfig
/lib/live/installer: debian-installer-launcher's d-i chroot
Change
--
evidently, /lib/live is now too crowded. we would like to better
seperate the mounts from the code, in order to make it more inuitive to
see what part is what.
IMHO: At least for me it is not "too" crowded.
Whatever the final desicion will be: More important is to define the
structure of directories, mountpoints etc *once* and keep it until the
end of this release. I am comfortable with the current structure.
Changes of such kind require modifications of some scripts/hooks I use
on/for my live images.
therefore, we propose to move the mountpoints:

/lib/live/installer: debian-installer-launcher's d-i chroot
/lib/live/mount: misc mountpoints of live-boot
there was consensus yesterday on irc to do move the mountpoints, and to
name the new directory /lib/live/mount. it's a functional name with no
abbreviation (we could have used the more intuitive /lib/live/mnt
otherwise), which is what we consistently do in live-* for everything
named proper.
Why not to use /mnt instead?
current git of live-* already reflects this change.
Thank you / regards, Mark

Broken iso live images on debian sid
Hello,
Even with the simplest configuration (or the following config: git clone
git://live-systems.org/git/debian-lxde-desktop.git) live-buil creates on
debian sid *broken* iso images which are not able to boot (after
displaying the boot menu futher booting ends on initramfs prompt). I
have executed some tests like described in the attached file
(sid-lb-config.txt).
For some reason the versions of live builder packages packages on the
created image are older than these ones on the build host (details in
the attached sid-lb-config.txt file).
Do you have any idea, how to trace this issue? it is useless to check
the BTS of debian refer to this issue, yet.
I am not sure if it is a bug in new sid packages, the new version of
live builder3.x, my missunderstanding of the live manual or something else.
I hope that this message will save people some frustration with building
of live images on debian sid ;)
Thank you in advance for any hints.
regards, Mark

You claim to be building sid images. You attached a build of a wheezy
image. Check your configuration.
Please note that 3.x defaults distribution to wheezy, since 3.x is
targeted at wheezy. Specify --distribution sid to build a sid image.
I did (see the line below). I created few times live images with

Alternatively, if you only wanted sid so that you could include sid
live-* images, I recommend you build a wheezy image but include live-*
from sid as indicated in the live-manual section on APT pinning.
I will check again the APT pinning section of manual. Till last "bigger"
changes in 3.x I didn't have any problems to build sid on sid and I

Wheezy + live-* packages from sid has always worked well for me. So I
assume some user error, but it's not clear to me exactly what yet. I
just now built a minimal 'lb config --distribution sid' build and it
worked fine (i.e. icluded sid packages, not wheezy).
lb config noauto --clean --mode debian --bootloader syslinux
--architectures amd64 *--distribution sid* --binary-images iso-hybrid
--chroot-filesystem squashfs "${@}"
Please attach a copy of the exact auto/config used to generate the build
log you posted.
Just for testing I have set all values to "sid" however it didn't solve
the issue with broken iso live image for sid.
# ---
lb config noauto --clean --mode debian --bootloader syslinux
--architectures amd64 \
--parent-distribution sid
--parent-debian-installer-distribution sid \
--distribution sid --debian-installer live
--debian-installer-distribution sid \
--binary-images iso-hybrid --chroot-filesystem squashfs "${@}"
# ---
When I don't set the value of these options to "sid" there are "wheezy"
entries in binary.log.
The system starts to boot displaying the boot menu like (even I
specified in one more complex config "--distribution sid"):
# boot menu:

live-build3.0~a64-1

Further booting of such sid image still ends on (initramfs) prompt. The
*error message* I can see during the boot is:
*modprobe: module unknown not found in modules.dep*
There more details in attached files.
Do you know it anyone has already created (a working) live iso image for
sid with the last version of live builder packages (as above) within
last few days?
I will check again the APT pinning section of manual. Till last "bigger"
changes in 3.x I didn't have any problems to build sid on sid and I
didn't need any APT pinning.
I didn't say you need APT pinning to build sid on sid. I said if you
only wanted sid so you could include live-* images, it is better to
build a wheezy image and include live-* from sid.
If you changed an option affecting bootstrap (e.g. --distribution)
between builds, did you 'lb clean --purge' before the next build?
Yes. I have also checked config/bootstrap file (there were only sid
entries .. no one for wheezy anymore)
What do I miss? Thank you in advance for any hints.

Re: live-build 3.x summary of top 3 issues this week
Thank you very much for this interesting and helpful summary Ben.
Am 08.10.2012 23:06, schrieb Ben Armstrong:
Dear users of live-build 3.x,
Please always check latest status on the debian-live list, as both the
wheezy and sid are moving targets. That means both the debian-live
software itself and the archives are constantly changing, so builds that
worked yesterday might not work today and vice-versa.
That being said, since I seem to spend a lot of my time when I help
users addressing the same issues, I thought I'd take some extra time
this Canadian Thanksgiving holiday to give you a brief summary of the
top 3 issues raised within the past week or so. This will save me as
much time as it will save you. ;)
Thanks for using debian-live. As always, if you encounter new issues,
please read and follow the Bugs section of the manual:
http://live.debian.net/manual-3.x/html/live-manual/bugs.en.html
It will save us a lot of time if you read the chapter carefully and
follow the advice within.
I have just read this chapter again (and followed steps inside).
And now, the top 3:
1. Most users will be building wheezy images (the default for 3.x). The
versions of live-boot and live-config in wheezy now lag considerably
behind because we're in a freeze, meaning several issues have already
been fixed. Once we're certain the new versions will be acceptable to
the release team, we'll request unblock requests for them.
Meanwhile, we suggest you use the sid versions via this recipe in the
APT pinning section of live-manual:
http://live.debian.net/manual-3.x/html/live-manual/customizing-package-installation.en.html#476
2. The handling of 'lb config --initramfs auto' (the default) was broken
in live-build and was just discovered and fixed a short while ago with
the upload of live-build 3.0~a65-1. Sorry, I don't know in which release
this bug was introduced. Until it hits your mirror you can also find it at:
http://live.debian.net/archive/packages/live-build/
3. The linux-image-flavour metapackages in sid up until a very short
while ago were out of sync with wheezy (i.e. point at the old abi# "3"
instead of the new one "4". This happens from time to time. When it
does, this can be worked around by ignoring those metapackages and
specifying the package name stub for the kernel as in:
lb config --distribution sid --linux-images linux-image-3.2.0-4
I didn't find the "*--linux-images* " option in the code (and I have got
an error message when trying to use it).
A similar named option I have found was *--linux-packages*
By the time you read this, the new metapackages should be at your
mirror, so sid builds will no longer have this problem and the
workaround will no longer be needed.
I have tested yesterday and today a65. It looks like there is still this
"out of sync" bug in sid (details below). After getting sure what is
wrong I would raport a bug on the appropriate debian or kernel list (I
am not sure if it is still the "out of sync" bug in sid or maybe
something else).

Hello Thomas, Am 17.12.2012 22:03, schrieb Thomas Schmitt: (Where can i see an genisoimage produced Debian Live image for powerpc ?) rsync -avP rsync://www.it-infrastrukturen.ch/ftp/debian-live-sid-awesome-latex-PowerPC.iso . This DVD image is however "a bit" outdated. lacking the hardware to test if the images would actually work, there never hasn't been any, sorry. We face the same problem, obviously. :)) you can ask for porter access on one of the debian machines if you want to. It would mean boot experiments. I already shot the foot of George Danchev and myself by pre-maturely asking for tests with HFS+ on debian-cd. It soon turned out that we could not get it to boot with qemu-system-ppc. (Further it had to be adapted to a hardcoded value in Linux kernel mount code.) We need somebody who is willing to press the reset button (or turn the yale key in the on-off-reset lock ?). On a machine that boots the "stable" Debian "powerpc" ISOs. I am subscribed to debian-cd mailing list. If sincere interest arises in HFS (without "+") and Debian arch "powerpc", then one could at least begin to make a plan there. Does live build claim to support all hardware supported in standard debian distribution? regards, Mark -- m...@it-infrastrukturen.org http://rsync.it-infrastrukturen.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Grub error when bootstrap copy from wheezy

Perhaps it would help live builder users to avoid problems just adding such info (like above) into the manual (lb 3.x and lb 2.x) about all such issues and limitations. For people who want to move from lb 2.x to 3.x some hints how to "migrate" would be also helpful. regards, Mark -- m...@it-infrastrukturen.org http://rsync.it-infrastrukturen.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Does debian live recompile from source?
Am 03.02.2013 23:28, schrieb Brian Gunlogson: I need to modify a package that exists in Debian already, by patching its source code. Must I rebuild my source package into a binary package BEFOREHAND and then tell debian-live to install the compiled .deb? Or does debian live support recompiling my source package itself? You have to create .deb packages from modified sources yourself and to use these new packages to create the live image. It is possible to use your own repositories with new packages or to put them into "config/packages.chroot" or "config/packages.binary" (depends on that what you want). regards, Mark -- m...@it-infrastrukturen.org http://rsync.it-infrastrukturen.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: customize boot menu

I´d like to customize syslinux boot menu items - after booting Live CD I have
too many items in menu - Live, Live failsave, live 686, live 686 failsave, Text
install, Expert install, memtest and I think others (they can´t be read because
they are over the screen displayed).
In templates (in /usr/share/live/build/templates/syslinux/common/live.cfg) I found only 3 variables - {$LINUX_LIVE} {$LINUX_INSTALL} {$MEMTEST}.
I would appreciate any advice, I´m newbie in this issue and do not understand that so much.
