People,
I have been experimenting with building isos from minimal up to a base
version and when it is going completely I want to start with F14 and
then there are some customisations I want to do. During all the builds
and problems (which have been solved with help from people on this
list!) I have quite frequently tried to exclude packages when the
(qemu-kvm) booted iso hangs at that particular package. After having a
working ks that produced a base iso with base X stuff that died after
running startx, I restored:
xconfig --startxonboot
to the ks file and remade the iso - but now it hangs again after:
Generating exim certificate
Starting exim
even though I have:
-exim*
in the ks file. This was happening at various times before (with this
and other packages) with my more minimal ks versions but other changes
allowed me to keep going somehow . .
I just commented out "xconfig --startxonboot" again and now the new iso
gets all the way to a login again - however it still crashes after
startx [(EE) open /dev/fb0: No such file or dir; error setting MTRR] but
I will worry about that later . .
Why does exim NOT get excluded when all the other packages listed are
successfully excluded?
Thanks,
Phil.
