yes, catalyst can most definately put multiple kernels on a livecd, |
| 2 |
it's very simple as well. Take a look in |
| 3 |
examples/livecd/amd64/amd64-stage2-20040201.spec |
| 4 |
And you'll see exactly how to do it. Also, I committed gcloop and |
| 5 |
squashfs support for both genkernel (3.0.1_beta12), and the latest |
| 6 |
CVS of catalyst. I personally couldn't get gcloop working, but |
| 7 |
it's very possible there's a problem with amd64 and gcloop. The |
| 8 |
problem occurred when trying to boot, the initrd couldn't properly |
| 9 |
echo " " | losetup -e ucl-0 -p0 /dev/loop0 livecd.gcloop |
| 10 |
for some reason. I could not get it to work natively from within |
| 11 |
my OS either. Anyhow, that's a question for lu_zero. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
BTW, for gcloop support, set your cdfs type to 'gcloop' and for |
| 14 |
squashfs to 'squashfs' .... not that you couldn't have guessed |
| 15 |
that ;) |
