Now you got an initrd and a vmlinuz file. Now cd your fw-current repo and get the boot dir(recursively) from here: http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/frugalware/frugalware-current/ Now you need a volumes.xml in boot dir. Something similar to this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE volumes SYSTEM "http://frugalware.org/dtd/volumes.dtd";> <volumes> <fst_root>/home/voroskoi/darcs/current</fst_root> <out_dir>/home/voroskoi/darcs/current</out_dir> <volume> <arch>i686</arch> <media>net</media> </volume> </volumes> Copy the initrd and vmlinuz files to boot dir and start mkiso. You'll get an ISO image in out_dir. You can test that with virtalbox for example. Sometimes it's good to set DEBUG=true in setup's Makefile, so the setup will run in gdb. Very useful for bughunting.
