Other Help Topics :: ReMastering HOWTO for DSL

dslremaster!

Your problem really puzzels me. The only thing that I can say right of the bat is that maybe you didn't delete the source directory before making the final iso-image. That is a must do if you have only 256 MB of RAM. Hopefully that's the problem.

Have fun out there everybody,

That is what I did. I only have 256 RAM.

Any other thoughts?

Another probability would be that your swap-file not is properly formatted. Some partition-programs does like that. They just label the swap without formatting it. Otherwise I just don't know what could be wrong. Hopefully this solves the problem. If it doesn't i need more into to see what it can be.

Have fun,

Forgive me for my English. Please, prompt as it is possible to keep completely adjustments of system. That is to adjust Ftp-server, monkey-webserver, and other services. Has for example tried to make remastering of clauses: HOWTO Remaster DSL From An Existing Hard Drive Installation, HOWTO Remaster DSL From An Existing HD Install, Remastering DSL, ReMastering HOWTO for DSL - and any of these descriptions has not helped, namely my order of actions:
1. Booting from CD-Live with parameter: dsl toram
2. Setting xvesa resolution, static IP adress, starting daemons webserver, ftpserver, and other.
#sudo su
#mount-rw/dev/hda1/mnt/hda1
#mount
/dev/hda1 on/mnt/hda1 type vfat (rw)
#mkdir/mnt/hda1/dsl
#mkdir-p/mnt/hda1/dsl/master/KNOPPIX #mkdir-p/mnt/hda1/dsl/source/KNOPPIX *cp-Rp/KNOPPIX/* /mnt/hda1/dsl/source/KNOPPIX
Gives out many mistakes, for example: cp: cannot create special file '/mnt/hda1/dsl/source/KNOPPIX/dev/ida/c1d6p1 ': Opperation not permitted

That I do not so??? Rescue!!!

P.S.
It will be a server a redirector log files + ftp download

Rifey!

I'm not sure that I understand your problem but I would recommend that you make a partition with ext2 filesystem and a swap-partition and try making your remaster. I'll give you and example-HOWTO here:

Remastering HOWTO for DSL

Format the partition with the ext2 filesystem

$sudo mke2fs /dev/hda3

Mount the partitions needed

#mount –rw /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
#mount –rw /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3

Create the directories needed

#mkdir /mnt/hda3/source
#mkdir /mnt/hda3/newcd
#mkdir /mnt/hda3/newcd/KNOPPIX

Copy necessary files to the newcd directory

#cp –Rp /cdrom/boot /mnt/hda3/newcd
#cp –Rp /cdrom/lost+found /mnt/hda3/newcd
#cp –Rp /cdrom/index.html /mnt/hda3/newcd

Copy the sources to the proper directory

#cp –Rp /KNOPPIX/* /mnt/hda3/source
#cp –Rp /KNOPPIX/.bash_profile /mnt/hda3/source

Go through and copy wanted things to /mnt/hda3/source

#cp –Rp /mnt/hda1/backgrounds /mnt/hda3/source/etc/skel/.fluxbox
#cp –Rp /mnt/hda1/styles/* /mnt/hda3/source/usr/share/fluxbox/styles

Create the custom compressed image file

#mkisofs –R /mnt/hda3/source | create_compressed_fs - 65536 >
/mnt/hda3/newcd/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX

Create the iso-file as follows

#cd /mnt/hda3
#mkisofs –no-pad –l –r –J –no-emul-boot –boot-load-size 4 –boot-info-table –b
boot/isolinux/isolinux.bin –c boot/isolinux/boot.cat –hide-rr-moved –o mydsl.iso newcd

Copy the iso-file to the partition where you have your favourite cd-burning program

#cp /mnt/hda3/mydsl.iso /mnt/hda1

I hope this can be of help!

Have fun Y'all out there in cyberspace,
meo
