Re: live-build to specific revision of wheezy

Also - just to update - I tried as root and verified path is set, still getting chroot not found

I can compensate for any valuable help provided - thanks

Hi All,

Anything higher than 7.6 is not an option due to my customer requirements (red tape within banking institution)

I really need an exact copy of an existing server using the bootstrap --copy option

Each time I try to run it I get the following:

debadmin@debtest1:~$ lb config --bootstrap copy --debian-installer true

Hi Melanie

I agree with Michal Suchanek answer. The repo for old stable (wheezy) will contain all the latest packages, which is 7.10. 

I have some 7.6 iso's I can upload if that would help.

Just curious, why you need to go back so far?

Cheers

Hi All,

I've been testing builds for days now and I cannot figure out the parameter or option to specify a specific revision of Debian to use as the base build.

I need to build from Debian Wheezy Update 6 (7.6) - Is there a way to do this?

I have also tried doing '--bootstrap copy' but it results in the chroot directory missing.

I'm open to alternative suggestions as well to create the build, but it has to be 7.6 or a copy of my current running install.

Thanks,

Melanie
