Daniel , sb* binary images * grub (i386/amd64) boot support on net binary images * multi-binary builds in one shot the following I'd like to add: * vmware binary image flavour * usb-zip binary image flavour * support splitted/partial squashfs images * a fetch everything, then build option * introduce package groups Live installer? Can't we do a bounty and sponsor a developer to work on this? How much time would it take IYHO? Just my two cents, egoistically sent in the bit (many ArtistX users are asking about this, so I've had to put a Debian to ArtistX tutorial on the ArtistX site).

Can't we do a bounty and sponsor a developer to work on this? How much time would it take IYHO? Depending on how 'busy' I am while the Debcamp, I hope to hack up a working example for it while that week. For someone familiar with debian-installer, this should be a realtive easy and straight forward task. As I am not that familiar yet with it, I will need a bit more time to do it. Of course, sponsorship, bounties, patches or even someone other writing it is always welcome. Just my two cents, egoistically sent in the bit (many ArtistX users are asking about this, so I've had to put a Debian to ArtistX tutorial on the ArtistX site). yeah, it's my personal release goal for lenny to have debian-live images at the very same time the 'regular' images are released, and, to have live-installer both in cli and gui on that very disks. so, don't worry about it for the long-term (aka lenny), it will be definitely accomplished, but right now, it's a bit of a problem of priority for me to do it myself. -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ ___ Debian-live-devel mailing list Debian-live-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel

(this is btw not restricted to squashfs, it works with the other filesystem types too). however, this needs to be implemented in live-helper in a smart way, patches welcome :) -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ ___ Debian-live-devel mailing list Debian-live-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel

I updated the TODO file in live-helper sources to reflect the things said in this thread. If you want to check the todo file of live-helper in future, always check the one in the sources, available at: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-live/dists/trunk/live-helper/docs/TODO?op=filerev=0sc=0 Regards, Daniel -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Burgunderstrasse 3, CH-4562 Biberist Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet: http://people.panthera-systems.net/~daniel-baumann/ ___ Debian-live-devel mailing list Debian-live-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
