From 42050c0ca00c4b8d2bfa60e6fe16fd01728f865f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Hameleers Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2017 13:56:56 +0100 Subject: README: put some more emphasis in the ISO developer section. Specifically, stress the fact that generating an ISO requires that you create a local Slackware mirror prior to running 'make_slackware_live.sh', since the script will not download official Slackware packages, only 3rd party packages. --- README.txt | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'README.txt') diff --git a/README.txt b/README.txt index ccde65c..953a39a 100644 --- a/README.txt +++ b/README.txt @@ -573,7 +573,7 @@ The script's parameters are: The script uses package repositories to create a Live ISO.

A local mirror of the Slackware repository is mandatory - you have to download these yourself.. Any other packages, i.e. those that are used from a 3rd party repository will be downloaded from a remote server as long as a rsync URL for the repository is configured in ./pkglists/*.conf. When all pre-reqs are met, you issue a single command to generate the ISO. The following example will create a pure Slackware Live Edition: # ./make_slackware_live.sh -- cgit v1.2.3
