i have read about simple-cdd, but i don't know it.
there are lots of ways to do it:
1)with
live-helper:
Code:
su
apt-get install live-helper
mkdir my_live && cd my_live
lh config --bootstrap copy --debian-installer live
lh build
make sure you got a stock kernel (2.6.26) installed. during the process things are getting downloaded.
before you ask: yes, the result is a) a live-cd and b) installable
2)with
remastersys:
3)manually:

and add a simple installer:
http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/m...ian-installer/
or this one:

4)about that i don't know, but it might be the best choice:
http://clonezilla.org/
5)perhaps copy it with rsync, should work too (i just copied a complete system with rsync from one partition to the other, edited fstab and grub's menu.lst and voila: ready to go)
Quote:
mount /dev/sda6 /media/backup
rsync -auv --exclude="/home/*" --exclude="/proc/*" --exclude="/lost+found/*" --exclude="/dev/*" --exclude="/mnt/*" --exclude="/media/*" --exclude="/sys/*" --exclude="/tmp/*" / /media/backup

There might be lots of other options, and perhaps much better ones.
(say: fai, fully automatic installation, ???)
for live-helper and remastersys: you stopped the process: it takes a while, just wait.
what exactly is getting downloaded i don't know.
happy headaches
