Package: live-helper Version: 2.0~a2-1 0 Severity: wishlist
Make it possible to edit/customize fstab for the ISO and after installation with d-i I want to make an pro audio optimized live iso which is also able to be installed. In the world of linux audio, JACK (jackd) is an important tool and the readme of it says that I need to add a line in fstab to make it work properly: /Welcome to JACK, the Jack Audio Connection Kit. Please see the website (http://jackit.sf.net/) for more information. NOTE: If you are using reiserfs or ext3fs or anything except ext2fs for the directory where JACK puts its temporary files (/tmp by default), then the JACK team recommends that you do *one* of the following: ---------------------------- Mount a tmpfs on /tmp. You should have a lot of swap space available in case some programs try to write very large files there. In your /etc/fstab add a line: none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 You'll probably want to reboot here, or kill X then 'mount /tmp'. ---- OR ---- Alternatively, you can do this without affecting your /tmp: # mkdir /mnt/ramfs [edit /etc/fstab and add the following line] none /mnt/ramfs tmpfs defaults 0 0 Then add --with-default-tmpdir=/mnt/ramfs to the JACK configure line when you build it. No clients need to be recompiled. ------------------------------ _Failure to do one of these could lead to extremely poor performance from JACK,_ since its normal operation will cause bursts of disk I/O that are completely unnecessary. This suggestion can also be used by ext2fs users if they wish./ -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages live-helper depends on: ii cdebootstrap 0.5.5 Bootstrap a Debian system ii debootstrap 1.0.20 Bootstrap a basic Debian system Versions of packages live-helper recommends: ii gettext-base 0.17-8 GNU Internationalization utilities Versions of packages live-helper suggests: ii dosfstools 3.0.6-1 utilities for making and checking ii fakeroot 1.14.4-1 Gives a fake root environment ii genisoimage 9:1.1.9-1 Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem pn memtest86+ | memtest86 <none> (no description available) ii mtools 4.0.10-1 Tools for manipulating MSDOS files pn parted <none> (no description available) pn squashfs-tools | genext2fs <none> (no description available) ii sudo 1.7.2p1-1 Provide limited super user privile ii syslinux 2:3.83+dfsg-3 utilities for the syslinux bootloa pn uuid-runtime <none> (no description available) pn win32-loader <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
