Hi, I would like to build a custom version of e-smith/mitel. I have found this HOWTO:
http://www.e-smith.org/docs/howto/contrib/e-smith-custom-iso.html To make my own version, I have just add one package, zile. It's a tiny emacs-like (zile-1.6.1-1.i386.rpm). I followed the HOWTO's instructions: 1/ copy the CD-ROM content in a directory 2/ add zile entry in comps file (between xinetd and zlib) 3/ add the package in RedHat/RPMS/ 4/ rebuild hdlist and hdlist2 But when I try it, the installation fails when the "Package installation" begin. I receive only this error message: Install existed abnormally -- received signal 11 Fisrt question: Sizes of files hdlist* is a lot smaller after my genhdlist: Before (original CD-ROM files) -r--r--r-- 1 valos valos 2879388 2002-06-27 22:58 hdlist -r--r--r-- 1 valos valos 4434984 2002-05-03 00:23 hdlist2 After -r--r--r-- 1 valos valos 463704 2002-08-09 20:37 hdlist -r--r--r-- 1 valos valos 2348412 2002-08-09 20:37 hdlist2 Is it normal? Second question: I have no RedHat distribution, only a debian, so my e-smith modified is build under debian. There is no anaconda and anaconda-runtime debian package so I use converted packages. I have tried versions 7.0.5, 7.1.5, 7.2.7, 7.3.7 with the same result. Is it a version problem of anaconda? Third question: After genhdlist, should I re-generate the package ordering with /usr/lib/anaconda-runtime/pkgorder and after redo a second genhdlist? PS: I make my installation over network with a floppy (bootnet.img). The e-smith modified is accessible from an other computer with apache. Thx in advance for your help.
