42 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
|
pankso@117
|
43 <p>
|
pankso@117
|
44 Tazlito is a small utility to extract a LiveCD, rebuild the
|
pankso@117
|
45 ISO image and regenerate the root filesystem of the LiveCD.
|
pankso@117
|
46 Tazlito can also generate a distribution from a list of packages
|
pankso@117
|
47 previously downloaded. To run, Tazlito uses the configuration file
|
pankso@117
|
48 /etc/slitaz-tools/tazlito.conf or a tazlito.conf found in the
|
pankso@117
|
49 current directory that can be easily generated.
|
pankso@117
|
50 It specifies the name of the ISO, volume, maintainer and
|
pankso@117
|
51 the paths of the packages to distribute and the generated ISO.
|
paul@121
|
52 Tazlito can also set up a directory containing additional files
|
pankso@117
|
53 which will be copied to the LiveCD when generating the distribution.
|
pankso@117
|
54 </p>
|
pankso@117
|
55 <p>
|
pankso@117
|
56 Tazlito is distributed under the free GNU licence GPL V3,
|
pankso@117
|
57 installed by default on SliTaz and installed/sucessfully tested
|
pankso@117
|
58 on Debian GNU/Linux. You will find additional information

84 The 'gen-config' command allows you to generate a configuration

85 file ready to be edited. By default the file is created in
|
pankso@117
|
86 the current directory, but can be in another directory

107 root filesystem of the cdrom. To function, this command needs

pankso@117

108 a directory containing the distro-tree of the Live system.
|
pankso@117
|
109 This tree can easily be built with the 'extract-distro' command,

pankso@117

193 The <em>Generate Distribution</em> command can generate the
|
pankso@117
|
194 distro-tree and an ISO image via a list of packages. To function,
|
pankso@117
|
195 this command needs a list of packages, a directory containing
|
pankso@117
|
196 all the (.tazpkg) packages on the list, and a directory to
|
pankso@117
|
197 generate the distribution. The list of packages can be extracted
|
pankso@117
|
198 from a flavor by the 'get-flavor' command. If one uses the
|
pankso@117
|
199 LiveCD, the options --cdrom and --iso= permit the regeneration
|
pankso@117
|
200 of packages that place files in /boot without being obliged
|
pankso@117
|
201 to download them and recovers the additional files of the
|
pankso@117
|
202 LiveCD. The path to the various directories are configured
|
pankso@117
|
203 in the configuration file and packages can be downloaded
