i want to make my distribution
Hi everyone there,
I want to make my distribution I have tried that LFS that is fine and cool But whole of that procedure is to be done manually can u guys there tell me how to automate it and to put it in a bootable CD and have something like install which does all the work by itself without manual intervention rahul |
dear rahul try automated alfs . I have been trying the same as of u since the last 6 days.
what i feel is that u need two things 1. programming 2. system administrating at least to a some level |
hi saurav_gohain
what u said is correct. automated alfs i have visited it gives in two ways of making an automatic lfs and blfs install but my problem is in which language should i make perfection and how to make a distribution CD |
From the sounds of it, you guys might have some luck looking at:
www.gentoo.org If you've looked at ALFS and it's not for you, maybe gentoo is. It's not quite as hands on as LFS, but does a decent job at getting you to the point where LFS leaves off and BLFS takes over (with a stage 1 tarball) Cool |
rahul
i haven't got your which language . to install things bash is perfect enough to proceed |
hi sourav
what u r talking bout is fine the shell script works fine but what bout putting it on to the CD with automatic hardware detection and installation of packages |
xmms mp3
I have red hat 8.0
i have some mp3 songs but they do not get added to the playlist of xmms and neither they get played whereas wav files are played and get added too. Anybody plz help |
in that case you have to write scripts ( perl) to do the detection of the hardware ( more importantly the hdd) and then write the whole thing in a CD and make it bootable.

hi sourav
u say for the perl scripts that is fine i also know about the bootable CDs but what about running those scripts directly after booting form the CD is complete |
RE: XMMS and MP3s
Red Hat does not ship with MP3 support in any form. Go to The XMMS Website and download the Red Hat MP3 plugin for XMMS. |
