have you tried without the _ ; say like this
lh config -d lenny -p standard-x11
^ ^
on sid i get an error message bout lh_config being deprecated, and that i got to use it without the _
otoh: i only get the message, it did work. (but iirc in lenny its the same now...)
as said in the other thread: live-helper makes me enough headaches in lenny (in sid it works, or it works not, but often it works).
perhaps try just smashing in live-helper from sid, but keep the system squeeze?: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=15612
(not sure if using the lenny-version on squeeze will work, there has something happened with squashfs, if i am right). you might try that first, if that doesnt work use the sid-version, and if that doesnt work give up
I then chrooted in and did aptitude -f safe-upgrade
which upgraded to kernel 2.6.30-2-686 squeeze
I then had to mksquashfs all that and boot a usb from the new 30 kernel
while running live I chrooted back in to the build
and now running 30 kernel I did full upgrade to squeeze and purged out old lenny stuff
I then mksquashfsd all thata, deleted the other stuff off usb and put the new one on usb
I then again went and got a sid sourceslist
put that in there and repeated the process agai and again tll I got to sid full
it runs good but wont run persistent
which defeats the purpose for me.....
trooper: thanks for checking the versions, i should have done it but am more of the try&error ones.
linus72, just chatting:
The rest of what you did is a bit beyond me.
would the easy version of it be: you build lenny, chroot and upgraded, and rebuild the iso? if so: no problems with squashfs? yes?
and the option "-a i386 " did a build without 486, yes?
persistent, well, erghh.. i asked you once about it, but its not my thing...yet.
Hey you want me to upload the mini sid I made?
its like 300MB and you can use the toram=filesystem.squashfs as its small
well, it'll be easier to build now as before i built it up from lenny to sid
now that you helped me with lh config in squeeze I can first make a squeeze one
no, the option -a i386 still makes a image with both kernels
486 & 686; figure you must be running from 686 to purge 486,etc?
nah, you don`t need to upload it. thing is like this: always, always, always it builds that 486, and i don`t ever need it. it just bugs me. thats all, not that i desperately would need it.
i got enough to do checking your last e17-version (and, of course, some other things too, mini-networking is killing me.lol.).
but: thanks a lot. i really appreciate.
and finally: a good thing what you`re doing there
btw:
(hint: there are a few pre-build ubuntu-based-e17`s out the, but not much debian based ones. if you ask me its a thing which really is missing. atm there is another project bout that...)
you got the hint?
here you can see my PC in its death throes as its little 1.8ghz brain is struggling along while making
a Debian Live squeeze cut and its also making my custom cut too
2 for 1!
the little term is getting my debian live
the bigger term is gonna be making the custom iso
the script at bottom kinda is a template
to the left you see the Lab
look at all those partitions too
