Hi folks,
I created a livefile system with bootcdwrite from a system with encrypted
partitions.
Everything is working fine, but ...
Checking the manual for bootcdwrite.conf, I find
OPTIONS
SRCDISK
The Variables SRCDISK defines the root of the files that will be copied.
For example, to build an image from a remote system, export
root-directory with nfs, mount it locally to /mnt/remote and add:
SRCDISK=/mnt/remote
It is added as prefix to KERNEL, INITRD, DISABLE_CRON and NOT_TO_CD, if
this are relativ paths (without starting "/")
Default:
SRCDISK=/
which I understand implies that, by default, bootcdwrite more or less
copying the system you run it on. Thus, the expectation that it should
keep off of your lawn, erm, partitions seems unrealistic.
On the other hand, you can create a configuration that uses a different
source system, or modifies it. In your case, it appears that you want
some modifications.
My understanding, however, is that you want modifications going so deep,
that it may be more reasonable to *not* start with your regular system.
Before we try to identify what you'd have to exclude, can you give us an
idea of what your actual goal ist?
Cheers,
Arno
