Re: How to make a custom installer CD/DVD/BD/USB-stick?
How about editing the amd64 template?

I'd like to create a 32GB (or larger?)

E.g. behind a *very* restrictive firewall or a very slow ISP connection. I know that jigdo templates are provided for BD images that will do the job, but only for AMD64, not for PowerPC, hence the need to roll my own. And besides, I think it might be fun to learn more about the process. Maybe my google foo is at a low ebb today: I did my duty as a question-asker -- searching the web for answers before I ask the list -- but came up dry. In any case, a pointer in the right direction would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance! Rick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

That might work if I knew where the template was, and how to use it. I've installed simple-cdd and started to read the documentation. Is the configuration file mentioned there the same as the template you are talking about? Or is there a different package that I should be looking at... Thanks!
