is about 4GB, but I can delete the whole stuff to allow the users to rebuild a |
| 15 |
customized version, an most unlikly to be use stuffs |
| 16 |
1)portage |
| 17 |
2)Kernel Sources |
| 18 |
3)RamDisk Sources |
| 19 |
4)Documentation /usr/doc |
| 20 |
5)Java Development (just leave the jre) |
| 21 |
6)Extra kernels and drivers |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
after that, I guess 3GB |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
and wich more I can delete?, distfiles is not on the disc... |

here my specs about the Live Version this will be the readme.txt: |
| 32 |
Details of the system |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
GENTOOLC (GENTOO LIVE by Compunauta) |
| 35 |
---------------------------------------- |
| 36 |
This version of Gentoo Live is complete, you'll find the content of |
| 37 |
the RAM disc, sources of kernels, used portage, except distfiles |
| 38 |
my email is madgus@×××××.com or gustavo@××××××××××.com |

| 42 |
MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS |
| 43 |
-------------------- |
| 44 |
DVD Unit, or USBHD or IDEHDD or SATAHDD with at least 5GB of |
| 45 |
free space (256+128 or more Recomended) |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
VIRTUAL MEMORY |
| 48 |
-------------- |
| 49 |
Is neccessary for work better to have Virtual Memory, just in case you |
| 50 |
don't have more than 392MB of RAM, for meet this, we need a Virtual |
| 51 |
Memory Partition, if you have installed another version of Linux |
| 52 |
it would be recognized and used automatically. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
IF THERE IS NOT PARTITION FOR VIRTUAL MEMORY |
| 55 |
-------------------------------------------- |
| 56 |
If you don't have this kind of partition, you can make a file |
| 57 |
called vram.000 (3 zeros) that would be prepared for the boot |
| 58 |
proccess to be used as a virtual memory file, the minimum recomended |
| 59 |
is 128MB that should be searched if you don't have enough Swap Partition |
| 60 |
this file should not be greather than 392MB |
| 61 |
On Linux you can make it: |
| 62 |
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=128 of=/mnt/windows_c/vram.000 |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
On windows we use the program zeros.exe included in (utiles folder) |
| 65 |
see the picture utiles/gentool_vram.png |
| 66 |
The name of the file needs to be "c:\vram." for example without (3 zeros, |
| 67 |
but with a dot) |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
NOTE: THE PROGRAM MAKE THE 3 ZEROS IN TE NAME OF THE FILE, DON'T |
| 70 |
FORGET THE ENDING DOT. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
HOW TO INSTALL THIS ISO ONTO A HARD DRIVE OR OTHER MEDIA |
| 73 |
-------------------------------------------------------- |
| 74 |
We can install Gentoo Live just copying the iso file onto any root |
| 75 |
place of any partition without partitioning our hard drive |
| 76 |
just extract an ISO from the DVD or place the downloaded one |
| 77 |
on whatever root place you have 4GB of free space. |
| 78 |
This increases the speed of working 3 or 5 times than DVD |
| 79 |
The file should be named "rootfs.iso", this file will be searched by |
| 80 |
the small included ISO for writing onto a CD or CD-CARD |
| 81 |
The file rootfs.iso can stay on any USB storage device like USB-TO-IDE |
| 82 |
or CF, or MS, SM, xD, MC, or any USB PENDRIVE compatible. |
| 83 |
|
| 84 |
>From Linux: |
| 85 |
dd if=/dev/dvd bs=1M of=/rootfs.iso |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
>From Windows: |
| 88 |
Use Nero with Image recorder and before to save, we choose the ISO type |
| 89 |
|
| 90 |
NOTE: NERO USE A PROPIETARY FORMAT NRG, DOES NOT WORK FOR OUR PURPOSES |
| 91 |
CHECK NERO TO SAVE AS IN ISO FORMAT |
| 92 |

| 102 |
Mantaining the Packages |
| 103 |
We can update, delete, install packages on our own ISO DVD, we mount the ISO |
| 104 |
or DVD: |
| 105 |
mount -o loop rootfs.iso /mnt |
| 106 |
mkdir /mygentoo |
| 107 |
cp -Rpv /mnt/rootfs /mygentoo |
| 108 |
chroot /mygentoo/rootfs |
| 109 |
mkdir /distfiles |
| 110 |
emerge stuffs |
| 111 |
... |
| 112 |
... |
| 113 |
After that we can rebuild the DVD, copy the whole content of the DVD |
| 114 |
to /mygentoo/dvd/ less rootfs folder and we start to upgrade the new rootfs |
| 115 |
mkdir /mygentoo/dvd |
| 116 |
mkzftree -z 9 /mygentoo/rootfs /mygentoo/dvd/rootfs |
| 117 |
If you wish to modify the ram disk is onto /mygentoo/dvd/boot_ram and for |
| 118 |
upgrade them we excecute ./mkram inside /mygentoo/dvd use the ./superulinux |
| 119 |
(review them) to generate our new ISO |
