Hi Chris at al, Started playing with live-magic. I tried building a xfce image, nothing fancy, no expert options. # tail -n 2 /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/config/chroot # The following option was added by live-magic LIVE_PACKAGES_LISTS="xfce"
When I booted I just got a plain standard minimal Debian iso (as tested via qemu). # ls -lh /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/binary.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 84M 2007-09-10 20:23 /tmp/tmpgtQbjjlive-magic/binary.iso I am still poking around with live-magic (and starting to read some python books) so I not sure how I debug this at the moment. I have not run live-helper (except via live-magic), so I my debugging is slow at the moment . I have tar'ed the whole tmp directory up if this helps, its 343M :- http://www.barwap.com/tmp/live-magic-test.tar.gz I keep playing with it, live-magic does look like fun.
