Now that live-helper1 has superceded live-package I have a config for the junior livecd work-in-progress in the debian-live repository:
sudo apt-get install live-helper svn co svn://svn.debian.org/debian-live/configs/junior sudo make-live --root junior &>make-live.log
This will build a usb
image for the gnome-junior
package list. If you want a regular iso image or want to try the kde-junior
or xfce-junior
lists, just make the appropriate changes in config
.
I have tested the usb image on a 1G usb key. At this point I’m not layering on customizations, but am focusing on basic usability issues: X autoconfiguration, sound, menus, etc. Once I’m happy with these I’ll move on to the kinds of customizations we’d like to make for children.
1 live-helper is still in NEW at the moment. I’ve been checking it out from svn and building the package myself, though you can also get Daniel’s packages from his site. My config should work with a2-1 or later.
update
For the time being it is best to stick with live-helper from svn, as my configs are being developed to work with trunk, which is still in flux (e.g. config variables are renamed without notice, etc.)
svn co svn://svn.debian.org/debian-live/dists/trunk/live-helper cd live-helper ; debuild -us -uc
