Hi,
In the past I have succesfully used grml-small as the basis for a customised rescue CD. I had to add some packages, which was relatively easy to do as I could copy the contents of the squashfs filing system, chroot into it, add packages to my hearts desire and recreate the squashfs file.
Now I am trying to do the same with grml64-small, which proves to be quite a challenge. I am no longer able to mount the file with the root filing system... squashfs doesn't recognise it even though the name suggests its a squashfs filing system in a file (live/grml64-small.squashfs).
I do not necessarily need the latest version of grml... I am quite happy with the older version. However I do need a 64bit kernel so I am able to get grub installed from within a 64bit userland (one of the reasons for making the rescue CD).
My problem would likely be solved if I would know how to access the root filing system in live/grml64-small.squashfs, make changes (adding packages, setting passwords etc) and recreate the file.
Does anyone know?
kind regards, Jan
