The following sequence of helper commands, provided by live-helper
, will create a basic ISO image containing just the Debian standard system without X.org. It is suitable for burning to CD or DVD media.
First, we run the lh_config
helper command which will create a "config/"
hierarchy in the current directory for use by other helper commands:
$ lh_config
By passing no parameters to lh_config
, we indicated that we wish to use the defaults, which will create an image of type binary (see Section 4.1.1, “The lh_config
helper”).
Now that we have a "config/"
hierarchy, we may build the image with lh_build
helper command:
# lh_build
This process can take a while, depending on the speed of your network connection (see Section 4.1.2, “The lh_build
helper”).
Testing an ISO is simple:
# apt-get install qemu $ qemu -cdrom binary.iso
