I've found at lease two problems when using the Live DVD builder configurations [1] to build gNewSense 3.0 Parkes i386 Live DVD. Problem 1: Live-build of Parkes depends syslinux-theme-galaxia but syslinux-theme-galaxia is not in the dependency list of live-build currently. Problem 2: Live-build of Parkes lacks a link from parkes to squeeze in /usr/share/live/build/data/debian-cd/ directory. My temporary solution 1: a) Install syslinux-theme-galaxia manually. b) Create a symbolic link from parkes to squeeze in /usr/share/live/build/data/debian-cd/ manually. My temporary solution 2: Insert the following lines to source/debian-live/auto/build of the Live DVD builder configurations [1], before the line of "lb build". Then I can build the ISO image successfully. # Start of the inserted lines echo "Creating a symbolic link from parkes to squeeze in /usr/share/live/build/data/debian-cd/." cd /usr/share/live/build/data/debian-cd ln -sv squeeze parkes cd $OLDPWD echo "Installing syslinux-theme-galaxia" aptitude install syslinux-theme-galaxia # End of the inserted lines The above is just a workaround. Eventually I'll try to modify live-build package and live-build's source package to fix these problems.
