I am pretty content with the results obtained so far. Here is the build process I am using, based on Debian Lenny,
lh_clean lh_config -b usb-hdd --bootappend-live "persistent xvideomode=1024x768" \ -p standard-x11 --packages "twinkle ekiga mc jed less alsa icewm" lh_build dd if=binary.img of=/dev/sda # where /dev/sda is a 512MB USB key. # Add a new type 83 partition /dev/sda2 to /dev/sda using fdisk mke2fs -L home-rw /dev/sda2 e2label /dev/sda2 # To check if the label is correct After boot I run sudo alsaconf startx I configure Ekiga and Twinkle, the configuration info is stored in /dev/sda2. The softphones work very well in my main Linux box but I am unable to use them on the other three machines I have available for two mayor problems. - Two of these machines have a BIOS which is not capable of booting off a USB key. It is certanly possible to boot on these machines using a boot floppy but I was not able to find how to do it neither in the manual nor in the wiki pages. - Sound does not work on the third machine, an HP6735s laptop, even if I run alsaconf on it. This same machine has a full Debian Lenny installed on the HD and sound works perfect in this installation. Can somebody help me to solve these problems?
