I'm trying to building a very small system (less of 50M) to fit a business |
| 2 |
card. A bootable live-cd distribution based on knoppix exists (dammsmall), |
| 3 |
but I do not know if I will be able to do using it catalyst. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
I want to build a minimum system that it has: |
| 6 |
Tiny X server and window manager |
| 7 |
kdrive or xdirectfb w/ openbox or fluxbox |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Autodetection of hardware |
| 10 |
I believe that the best thing is to use scripts of knoppix (kudzu, hwsetup, |
| 11 |
hwdata-knoppix, ddcxinfo-knoppix) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Sound and Connection to Internet |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Base tools |
| 16 |
Firefox web browser, xmms, xpdf, nedit |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I want to share what I have obtained until now, in order that the people who |
| 19 |
are making something similar we pruned to help us. Unfortunately there is not |
| 20 |
much help on catalyst. :( |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
As I am building the live-cd from my debian I have made these steps: |
| 23 |
tar xjf stage3* -C /mnt/gentoo |
| 24 |
tar xjf portage* -C /mnt/gentoo/usr |
| 25 |
cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc |
| 26 |
mkdir -p /mnt/gentoo/var/tmp/catalyst/{builds/default,snapshots} |
| 27 |
mv stage3* /mnt/gentoo/var/tmp/catalyst/builds/default |
| 28 |
mount -o bind /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc |
| 29 |
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash |
| 30 |
env-update; source /etc/profile |
| 31 |
