Re: Chrooted Debian install from base image (was Re: Instalation question: Toshiba TECRA 8000)
two things:
* the section that copies things to the floppies should call mkfs at
the top, or at least do something other than "rm /mnt/floppy/*" which
wont delete subdirs and can cause problems if someone picks a bad
floppy to use.
* where you backup and reformat /usr:
$ tar czvf /home/usr.tar.gz /usr
$ tar tzvf /home/usr.tar.gz
$ mkreiserfs /home/usr.tar.gz what!
$ cd /
$ tar xzvf /home/usr.tar.gz
that should be
$ tar czvf /home/usr.tar.gz /usr
$ tar tzvf /home/usr.tar.gz
$ umount /usr
$ mkreiserfs /usr
$ mount /usr
$ tar xzvf -C / /home/usr.tar.gz
might have to specify the actual device, not sure if mkreiserfs reads
fstab.
