CD image
An CD image is produced from the current system by the script CREATE CD. This happens with the following command:
< path to myLinux the Package>/compile scripts/CREATE CD
The Package listing must be complete and unchanged. It is copied as archives on the CD.
Ideal way is myLinux the Package on another partition than the current system - like it at the beginning of translating the case was. In this
case this partition must be under /mnt hung up. This happens automatically, if the partition before beginning of the translation
were indicated in the configuration file mylinux.conf. In the indicated example the myLinux partition /dev/hda4 was, the
translation by /dev/hda2 from the homeland listing of roots was out knocked against, and in the file mylinux.conf the partitions /dev/hda2
and /dev/hda3 were indicated as additional partitions. Therefore these are hung up under /mnt/hda2 and /mnt/hda3, and the command for
producing the CD image reads:
/mnt/hda2/root/mylinux-usermanager-0.92/compile-scripts/CREATE-CD
Contents of the listings /mnt and /proc are copied during the
image production naturally not on the CD, just as little like possibly
still the Package and SOURCE listings contained in the master
directory.
In the master directory several temporary listings and files develop
and are again deleted. A listing /CD, which contains complete CD
contents, remains, and which image /livecd.img.
If the three SOURCE listings are deleted before, the storage
requirement amounts to about 2,4 GB.
Functions
The script implements several steps:
Copy of all relevant system listings under /live-CD, creation of
the installation Skripte, which are to be found later in the homeland
listing of roots on the live-cd: install files.sh the data of the
live-cd into the goal partition, install config.sh configures the
system, deletion of the Kernel sources (these takes away on a
live-cd only unnecessarily place) copies as well as the different
log files and Caches, providing RAM disk contents in the listing
/live-RAM - into this all files are shifted, to which in the
current system write accesses are implemented; the other files are
loaded by symbolic left to /mnt/cdrom/live-CD directly from that
CD, a providing of the preinit Skriptes, which looks for and hangs up
the CD to the shop of the Kernels, providing the RAM disk image,
configuring the Bootloaders syslinux, inclusive shifting of the
Kernel, add the Icons, the package mylinux usermanager x.xx.tgz and a
Archives of the Kernel sources (those were deleted above), and finally
provide the CD image. Remark: The preinit script has still another
useful feature - it looks for still before the examination of the CD
drive assembly a Windows disk with a file preinit and implements
these. In this way the behavior of the live-cd can be modified
