Hi lisarden, I am tried to make the bare minimum image but that takes too long to boot while compared to the image supplied by the Beagleboard community. Also if you see all the questions that I posted were about customizing the image using the image-builder script. So its not that I am going from end to the beginning. I am at the extreme begininning of creating a customized OS.
Let me tell you my requirement. I need a OS that shows a splash screen at boot. Once the OS is booted it will run a Java program instead of lxde to show the UI. I had no luck with splash till now though I know that I have to use psplash. Also I tried changing the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and /usr/share/xsession/LXDE.desktop file to invoke the java program but had no luck with it. I tried disabling the lightdm service by removing the /etc/rc5.d/lightdm symlink but still lightdm starts and shows LXDE at boot up. Please Robert and lisarden, help me with this so that I can complete the image. PS: I have customized the target/chroot/beagleboard.org.sh file to add the oracle_jdk into the image and to remove chromium from the image. the rest of the packages are left as it is.
