Hello everybody, I'm new to DebianLive. I've been trying to use it for the last couple days, but I'm hardly getting anywhere. I would appreciate some help.
Here is what I'm trying to do: 1. Put a modified kernel with a minimal system on a USB drive. 2. Add two executable programs into /usr/local/bin. 3. Add a service script to start the two programs after the system booted. Here is what I'm working with: Debian GNU/Linux 4.0r1 Kernel 2.6.20.19 pached with RTAI 3.5-cv Live-helper 1.0~a21-1 Syslinux 1:3.51-1~e Some of the main problems that I've run into are: 1. After lh_config, change from iso to usp-hdd in config/chroot, lh_build and dd if=binary.img of=/dev/sda, "Unknown keyword in syslinux.cfg." shows up 4 times and when I press enter to boot it reports "Could not find kernel image: /vmlinuz". 2. When I try mount -o loop,offset=512 binary.img /mnt, it reports "mount: you must specify the filesystem type". 3. After syslinux -f /dev/sda1, mount /dev/sda1 /mnt and editing syslinux.cfg (remove LABLES with localboot) the system boots without the syslinux.cfg error messages into Linux Debian 2.6.18.5-486 but not the modified kernel 2.6.20.19. 4. To reproduce my steps, I use scripts for most of my work. It would be nice to enter something like lh_config -b usb-hdd -p minimal but it just reports "lh_config: invalid option - b". I'm looking forward to you comments.
