RE: Custom cd's



Hello,

VERY nice script there.  The first think I noticed that was off was the
label on the cd, shows up as "cdrom"

Now if we could just select the default language.

which creates an ISO with base-only pkgs, from basedebs.tar.
Alternatively I wrote this little script that lets you put whichever
debs you want on there.  Tried it with the b-f2.4 flavour.  With just
the base debs on there the ISO is 31MB.  It doesn't provide any way to
automatically install non-base debs that are on the ISO, but you can
always apt-get install them once the system is up.
