Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm new to catalyst, so please forgive me if these are FAQ's. |
| 4 |
|

I browsed through the net for some documentation and found the usual |
| 6 |
places (Wiki, Docs). But I'm still a little bit confused if I can build |
| 7 |
a liveCD with X, Fvwm and some apps stuff on it. I read some success |
| 8 |
stories, but I didn't get it right how to do this. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I follow the steps describe in the Wiki and got an image but I'm not |
| 11 |
confident that everythings works as expected. Before wasting a CD I want |
| 12 |
to make sure that I understood correctly how things should be done with |
| 13 |
catalyst. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
So here are my questions: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
1. The Stage 1 and Stage 2 spec-files in the wiki, do they correspond to |
| 18 |
the normal Gentoo Stages 1 & 2 installation steps ? I would expect: yes. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
2. How do I get all the apps into the CD image ? I tried to make a |
| 21 |
spec-file for stage 3 but it fails to complete with |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
!!! catalyst: Target "livecd-stage3" not available. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
The head of my stage3-spec-file looks like this: |

|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
I wonder if this is the right thing to do as I didn't found any |
| 48 |
documentation stating that I should go for something like this. Should I |
| 49 |
put all packages, that I want on the CD, in the "stage 1" spec-file ? |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Hope this isn't too basic. :-) |
