Other Help Topics :: (yet another) remastering newbie



EUREKA!
I have managed to make a couple of remasters now, and in essence i have created The Distro I Always Wanted - since i have a root account with a known password. Which means, i can just pop the disc in, and don't have to care about doing anything more at that computer, once it's booted, i can reach it over SSH. Tres chique.

However, there are a couple of details i should take care of.
First and foremost i do have a user account, and i made that by copying the shadow file.... the account is reachable and all, but its practically unusable because it has
no homedir and no sudo right. What do i need to "bring with me" in order for this to work?

/etc/sudoers and the /home/ tree after creating the user with
Quote
adduser -m -n -g staff jake


And rename "dsl" to "jake" in /etc/sudoers....

Thank you curaga!
The experimentation goes on...
