Re: Some of the parameters used in my genisoimage command don't produce a bootable ISO image



Hello.

I have understood that the graphic files I need to change are inside the file called "initrd.gz" that's inside this folder :

/home/ziomario/Scrivania/PassT-Cubic/Debian-new/custom-disk/d-i/gtk/

I should decompress it and I will have the file called "initrd",that's a cpio file. The images that I should edit are inside this archive / folders :

initrd/usr/share/graphics

and they are called : logo_debian.png and logo_debian_dark.png ; 

at this point this is what I did to add two new image files inside the archive in the same position of the old ones :

chmod +w -R /home/ziomario/Scrivania/PassT-Cubic/Debian-new/custom-disk/d-i/gtk/
echo logo_debian_dark.png | cpio -H newc -o -A -F initrd/usr/share/graphics

but unfortunately this is not the proper command to issue :

cpio: can't open initrd/usr/share/graphics: Is not a directory

how to fix that ?

Hello to everyone.

I'm trying to customize the debian 11 and I'm creating a derivative distro for debian 11. I've changed a lot of logos,images and pictures,but not everything. For example I'm not able to understand which file belongs to the image and the logo that you see in this picture : https://ibb.co/SvbvsyR ; thanks.

Oh. In this case we should not bet against their wisdom.

If it is by mistake, then it is harmless and heavily tested during the
last years.
(Regrettably i have not many old Live ISOs and half of them are "standard",
 i.e. without GUI. I see the line with the unexplained "append" in
 debian-live-9.2.0-amd64-cinnamon.iso .
 Maybe one of the subscribed DDs has nostalgic memories from the time when
 the graphic installer was introduced ?)


Have a nice day :)
