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 |

Details of the system |

GENTOOLC (GENTOO LIVE by Compunauta) |

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 |

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 |
