Openbsd live iso

Before adopting any files for the CD-boot process the backup directories should be filled:. Now the configuration of the kernel can be done. For safety reasons a backup of the original configuration is performed. Now the kernel configuration file will be adopted to build a system that can be booted directly from CD-Rom.

The following lines have to be adopted. The lines with a minus in front have to be removed and the ones with a plus in fornt need to be added. All other lines are just for information, so that the right lines are changed. The next step is to build and install the crunch package, which is needed to build the new system. Now the actual boot image can be created. If the object folder is not empty then it will not be overwritten.

The freshly compiled kernel and boot image can now be copied to the Live-CD folder on our system, from which the ISO image will be created later on. Of course all files will be packed as a tar archive to save space on the USB device. The etc2usb script can be downloaded here. If you also want to reuse the settings which were saved with the etc2usb script the following lines should also be included at this position of the rc file.

If the Live-CD should run on other machines as well it is very likeley that they use different network interface cards. As a matter of fact the network interface name e. This could result in problems when it comes to configuration files which contain the network interface name.

To solve this problem I wrote a script which returnes the name of a network interface. You can download the getint. This script should be called from the rc script we just adopted. So here are some examples how I used it:. OliveBSD - targets desktop users, very easy to use Anonym. OS - a very secure and anonymizing desktop solution. Otto Moerbeek. Jan Stary.
