To create a custom install CD? You might find it better to build your =2Eiso or memstick images from the system sources. See release(7). The trick seems to be to make the 'system' target of the /usr/src/release/Makefile which will install the system into a chroot. You should then be able to edit files under that chroot. Then just 'make release.iso' or 'make memstick' to create an installer image. Cheers, Matthew --=20 Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.
