myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: Adding myDSL files to the iso
How to I add the packages to the iso? I tried editing the iso by when I boot the loader fails (since the size has changed). Do I burn the cd then add the pkgs later? Do I make a dir on the iso itself? I'm a bit stumped...One simple way to make your custom myDSL cdrom is to do what I do. I have only a single cdrom in my machine. It is a cdwriter. So I place my DSL cdrom in and boot with this: boot: dsl 2 toram
Then at the system prompt I type # mkmydsl
Then follow the on screen system prompts. You will need a hard drive with mountable partition and two directories large enough to hold the DSL image and all the extensions that you want. For example lets say you have a partition hdc4.
1. mount /mnt/hdc4 2. cd /mnt/hdc4 3. mkdir master 4. mkdir iso 5. copy the extensions that you want to use EVERYTIME into the master directory 6. mkdir master/optional 7. copy the extensions that you want as optional into the master/optional directory 8. mkmydsl
At the first prompt enter /mnt/hdc4/iso At the second prompt enter /mnt/hdc4/master
This is an all dsl way to make a custom myDSL cdrom.I have made this process and mkmydsl script has generated an .iso file in the iso directory that I have asigned but,... when I boot with the new cd, this boot, sacan the usb drives....I think that the cd detect all my partitions and then.....ERROR not detect the knoppix file and i can't continue. (dsl 0.8)
(sorry my poor english)
Baladret1.Can i made the same without the mkmydsl script??
4.Why dsl0.8 run perfetly but mydsl.iso made wiht mkmydsl don`t work???
ThanksSorry, I posted this backwards.

But the prompts do clearly state The first prompt geing: Enter the directory to hold image and modules (EXAMPLE: /mnt/master): The second prompt: Enter the directory to hold the new iso (EXAMPLE: /mnt/iso/)Next Page...
