diskforge

DiskForge is a LiveCD Build System based on Gentoo Linux. It can be used to create fully bootable LiveCDs. It is composed of a special stage tarball and a collection of build scripts for working with this stage tarball. The stage tarball is a specially packaged tar.gz or tar.bz2 file that ... [More] contains a minimal set of files that one would need to have on a bootable CD. It will contain precompiled binaries of all the base programs for the architecture it's built for. This stage tarball is modified in a chroot environment until the disk is ready to be built. The second part of this project is a collection of build scripts for managing the tarball. The scripts are responsible for the following tasks: Entering and exiting the build environment Creating backups of the build directory Cleaning a copy of the build directory in preparation for building the LiveCD or LiveDVD Creating a bootable ISO image of the disk An included autobuild script is able to accomplish all of these tasks with one command. DiskForge aims to be the simplest, most flexible and most customizable Linux LiveCD and LiveCD build system available. In contrast to other systems, DiskForge allows users to work entirely from within the disk itself to build the desired system; the most natural way of building a LiveCD. Additionally, although DiskForge currently only supports Gentoo Linux, any distribution is compatible with the build scripts, although the user will need to provide their own stage tarball for the installation.
