It's because they are "aliened" from RPM packages: http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core/i386/RPMS.drbl-unstable/ So you can find the source codes here: http://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core/i386/SRPMS.drbl-unstable/
I have packaged mkswap-uuid, and it's available in the drbl-core unstable branch. Actually we should drop mkswap-uuid since nowadays mkswap has supported "-U UUID" option: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/186274 As for drbl-chntpw, we will packaged it later. > > Additionally, the FreeDOS source package from drbl-core only contains a > disk image, not the source code for FreeDOS itself. That's true. The binary image was downloaded from http://www.freedos.org/ If you know how to compile it on GNU/Linux, please let me know.

Every iso source file might be 3 times larger than the binary one, and it takes a while to upload to sf.net. However, since you have requested that, we will do our best. > > Finally, I tried to use the create-debian-live and create-ubuntu-live > scripts as per > http://clonezilla.org/create_clonezilla_live_from_scratch.php, but they > both fail when trying to install the packages into the chroot jail.
