HI:

I think i am at the last stage of debian customization.

I really need few help at this point.


1) I have a pool contating installer-i386 , assicoated udebs , debs of
xserver and xfce .

2) While doing 'make bootable' . I get the following error:

--
sarge:/usr/share/debian-cd# make bootable
Apt-get is updating his files ...
Ign file: etch/main/debian-installer Release
Reading Package Lists...
Adding install tools and documentation ...
ERROR: package installlation-guide-i386 not found.

3) Once again doing 'make bootable' has no error ( strange) :
--
sarge:/usr/share/debian-cd# make bootable
Apt-get is updating his files ...
Ign file: etch/main/debian-installer Release
Reading Package Lists...
Making the binary CDs bootable ...
Running tools/boot/etch/boot-i386 1 /ftp/tmp/etch-i386/CD1
Using ISOLINUX boot-disks image on CD1
sarge:/usr/share/debian-cd#
------

4) I burned the  image and while installing it is asking me
' Choose a mirror of the debian archive' and not using my pool of CD.
Where sud i change to make debian-installer read from the CD instead
of the ftp sites.

I was running in the same error than you, I think, but I got success over it. Two things could be happening here. First, you are using an "incomplete" task list in make bin-list or make list proccess. Second, if the task list is complete, probably there are missing components like base-installer, autopartkit, and many others importants udeb to your installer works.

That choose mirror step is assigned to a udeb called choose-mirror and is only needed when you are looking to get packages from remote server, if you remove it from your local repository then this step will be removed from installer proccess.


Thanks
