Custom CD pain
Hi all
Firstly, sorry if this is the wrong list - please do flame me in the
right direction if it is.
I'm trying to make sense of http://wiki.debian.org/DebianCustomCD but
I simple can't.
Between the conflicting tasks defined there, large chunks of random
code spam, and the absolutely tragic use of English, I'm completely at
my wits end with regards to deciphering the process of generating a
customised install CD.
I searched this list archive for something too, however most of the
responses point to dead links and equally irrelevant looking information.
I have some custom packages, and a dependency chain. I can apt-move it
into a big pool along with the install CD pool. All I want to do is
bundle that into a Debian install CD for people.
What comes next? There is some blabbering about "installer-i386"
(which should be clearly labelled as the 'debianinstaller' package
really), and following that there is some (to put it politely)
incoherent talk of udebs, installer-i386 (AGAIN) and overrides.
Is Simple-CCD the tool to use? If so, can that horrendous
DebianCustomCD article just be binned so it isn't the first thing to
come up on Google?
Regards,
