You can tune the the parameters of create-debian-live to make it. E.g. /opt/drbl/sbin/create-debian-live -l e -b unstable -d sid -m http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian -s http://free.nchc.org.tw/debian-security -g http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core Steven. > Are there any documented solutions for building production versions of > Clonezilla with a few minimal modifications? > > Thanks, > Mike > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, > a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing. > Attend in-depth sessions from your desk.
