[DNG] About the experimental live DVD

2015-10-08 Thread Godefridus Daalmans
Hello, I would like to clarify some things about the live DVD that I made: - arch is amd64, userid user password live. It works inside virtualbox, not tested on bare iron. Do sudo bash to work as root. - It was an experiment by me to learn live-build and see how far I could get with it on De

[DNG] two miscommunications about refracta and live-build

2015-10-08 Thread Godefridus Daalmans
First, about fsmithred from refracta: I simply wasn't aware that somebody had already done this. Sorry fsmithred. I don't keep good track of the developments. Is there something like these newfangled "web sites" where I could read the latest news? And I don't mean git.devuan.org/packages-base

Godefridus, You didn't step on my toes. You did something else that was very much needed. I made an unofficial devuan-alpha-live, because some people were asking for it. I used the refracta scripts because, 1. I know them well, and 2. I gave up on live-build when I realized there was no way to exc

Hi Frits I've been using live-build for a few years now myself and am intending to add devuan to my list of debian wheezy/jessie images. I'm interested to know what you changed in the live-build scripts? Was it to fix bugs, improvements, ...? Nice work btw! Cheers Ozi On Fri, Oct 9, 2015 at 1
