  1. void-mklive - The Void Linux live image maker
  2. This is a simple shell script to build a live image for the
  3. Void linux distribution. The images contain the void-installer package
  4. to be able to install Void linux to storage disks.
  5. The generated image can be booted from BIOS and EFI systems (dual boot).
  6. For BIOS isolinux is used and for EFI we use grub2.
  7. Dependencies:
  8. - dracut
  9. - grub with support for PC-BIOS and x86_64 EFI
  10. - syslinux
  11. - dosfstools (for mkfs.vfat)
  12. - xorriso
  13. - squashfs-tools
  14. - void-installer
  15. Usage: void-mklive [options]
  16. Options:
  17. -C file Path to configuration file (defaults to ~/.mklive.conf)
  18. -c (gzip|bzip2|xz) Compression type for the squashfs/initramfs image.
  19. -k version Kernel version to use.
  20. -o outfile Output file name for the ISO image.
  21. -s splash Splash image file for isolinux.
  22. * If -k not specified it will use $(uname -r) by default.
  23. * The first time it is executed a config file will be created (~/mklive.conf).
  24. * It's assumed that void-mklive is executed in a Void Linux system.
  25. Take a look at the configuration file (~/mklive.conf) to tweak some
  26. default parameters in the generated image.
