Q: Is live-helper/make-live Debian specific?
|
|
|
|
|
A: live-helper supports Debian and Ubuntu right now. Adding automatic defaults
|
|
|
|
|
for other Debian derivatives is easy - let us know about them and we may
|
|
|
|
|
include it.

|

|

|
|

|
setting changes you want and the build process will continue.

Q: Where to set the username or the hostname?
|
|
|
|
|
A: casper uses default username 'casper' and hostname 'live'. You can specify
|
2007-09-23 08:04:50 +00:00
|
|
|
them by passing 'username=' and 'hostname=' as kernel parameters.
|
2007-09-23 08:04:49 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
live-helper automatically sets the username to 'user' and the hostname to
|
|
|
|
|
'debian'. If you want to change this at build time, pass --username and
|
|
|
|
|
--hostname to make-live, or alter LIVE_USERNAME and LIVE_HOSTNAME in
|
|
|
|
|
config/image.
