Love-LiveCDv2

Hey - its my pleasure, again to announce the Love-Sources LiveCD.

the kernel is, 2.6.7-mm2 based, patched with v30g, wireless stuff, iteraid, reiser4 and squashfs.

the cd is this time ALOT smaller, despite the fact that ALOT more tools are included. this is because,
i compiled with gcc3.4, with -Os. and the use of SquashFS.
the size is: 69mb.

grab here:

(soon a torrent might be availiable.)

Are the tools included made packages?
Oh, and another thing: does it include swsusp2? coz it works very well on 2.6.7 (the 2.0.0.88 version)

the livecd does not contain swsusp2

no point in that....

packages?? they are installed.. the applications.

What snapshot did you use? I had a great deal of problems with most of them: oopses , crashes and stuff like that. Maybe it was because i was making a reiser4 on a loop device.

If I remember correctly, your previous LiveCD included rsync. I don't see it listed now. Is this intended, did you forget to include it or is it still in but not in the posted list?

Redeeman · l33t Joined: 25 Sep 2003 Posts: 958 Location: Portugal

my previous cd did not include rsync.. i didnt remove anything from the cd.. only added.. (except i removed lilo)

RaaR · Tux's lil' helper Joined: 24 Jul 2003 Posts: 125

I remembered incorrectly then. I use rsync to backup and recover my files and I used it recently from a boot CD, I guess it must have been with Knoppix.

/me adds rsync to livecd-stage1.spec - so it gets included in next cd

if it was there, in the old livecd, it most likely is in the new too.. however i didnt manually specify it in the livecd-stage1 i think... feel free to look at both the tags:

I just checked, the new CD has rsync too. I still think catalyst is putting it in there. I'm not sure why it's there but I'm glad it is.

I have an adaptec 2940 scsi and i have tried every option and still get a kernel panic on your new cd.

Doesn't work with scsi :cry:

rtl8150 doesn't seem to be included (realtek chipset USB nics)

where can I grab 2.6.7-Redeman3 patch, so I can build the module on my other gentoo machine and copy the driver across?

(or if someone has it could they post it for me

)

thanks!
