(Off-Topic) My preparations for make a SlackwareLive(64) 15.0 Xfce

inukaze · 07-10-2022, 06:26 AM

Code:

mkdir -p /media/Compartido/Slack64-15.0
Slacklive="/media/Compartido/Slack64-15.0"
cd "$Slacklive"
wget -c 'https://slackware.nl/slackware-live/latest/slackware64-live-xfce-current.iso.asc'
wget -c 'https://slackware.nl/slackware-live/latest/slackware64-live-xfce-current.iso.md5'
wget -c 'https://slackware.nl/slackware-live/latest/slackware64-live-xfce-current.iso'

3 : After i had set the configuration for QEmu Virtual Machine via "aqemu", i prepare a "USB" / "Pendrive" with some configuration files like ".bashrc" for just replace it in each user.

i start with the follow command :

Code:

/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
-monitor stdio \
-cpu kvm64 \
-soundhw es1370 \
-k es \
-machine accel=kvm \
-m 1024 \
-cdrom "/media/Compartido/Slack64-15.0/slackware64-live-xfce-current.iso" \
-hda "/home/inukaze/.aqemu/Slack64-15.0.qcow2" \
-boot once=c,menu=off \
-net nic,model=ne2k_pci \
-net user \
-usb -device usb-ehci,id=ehci \
-device usb-host,bus=ehci.0,hostbus=1,hostport=1 \
-rtc base=localtime \
-name "SlackLive64 14.2"

I use the command given in the options but removing the "vlan" parameters because that are making imposible start the virtual machine.

4 : Install distro normally
5 : Boot the installed distro, and use the follow commands

Code:

sudo su
slackpkg update

#This ask something about download GPG, write YES and press Enter to continue.

6 : Starting to Remove Package i really don't need for my custom version

Code:

slackpkg remove \
xsane \
geeqie \
mousepad \
hexchat \
MPlayer\
v4l-utils \
xterm \
blueman

# Just for i conside is very useful i try to ran xfce4-clipman:
# xfce4-clipman : does not start : first try to find which libraries need
ldd /usr/bin/xfce4-clipman | grep 'not found'
#on my case i just need "libqrencode.so.4", searching on Slackware Package site, searching by content :
#i need the package "qrencode"

Code:

slackpkg install qrencode

7 : Install packages i want :

# First install extra-official package manager "slpkg" ( can resolve deps )

Code:

cd /tmp
slackpkg install python-pip	python-setuptools libyaml 	
pip install pyyaml 
pip install pyglet
pip install greenlet
pip install sqlalchemy
wget -c 'https://gitlab.com/dslackw/slpkg/-/archive/4.1.3/slpkg-4.1.3.tar.gz'

cd slpkg-4.1.3
./install.sh
ldconfig
slpkg update

Code:

slpkg install lshw				#Hardware Lister								--> https://ezix.org/project/wiki/HardwareLiSter

Code:

slpkg install viewnior		#Image Viewer for Graphical Env.	--> https://github.com/hellosiyan/Viewnior

if [ -x /usr/sbin/lxdm ]; then
		/usr/sbin/lxdm -nodaemon
fi

Error "putfont: KDFONTOP: Invalid argument" (if you use lilo this problem does not appear XD)
Trying to Solve :

Code:

sudo su
setconsolefont #Select the Font you want
/usr/share/mkinitrd/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh #This script give you the command for regenerate the initram

#On my case the command was :

Code:

mkinitrd -c -k 5.15.38 -f ext3 -r /dev/sda1 -m jbd2:mbcache:crc32c_intel:crc32c_generic:ext4 -u -o /boot/initrd.gz

i restart and the error persist, i start my session normally and open a terminal, for check the initram image.

Code:

mkdir "$HOME/initramfs" ; cd "$HOME/initramfs"
sudo su
cat /boot/initrd.gz | gunzip -c | cpio -i --no-absolute-filenames
cd bin
ls -l setfont
cd ../sbin
ls -l setfont
echo 'well is there, i suppose adding to mkinitrd.conf BINARIES array can solve it'

# well. (This option allows users to use the allow_other option.) You need
# allow_other if you want users other than the owner to access a mounted fuse.
# This option must appear on a line by itself. There is no value, just the
# presence of the option.

#slpkg 3.9.9
#echo slpkg 4.1.3 : just access to sbo repository ¬¬, well i prefer use multiple repos :

Code:

#Now choose the repositories you want active, i use : slack, sbo, alien, slonly, multi

Well after i edit and arrange this post, but now i am thinking on the follow:

1 - How i can compile Slackware "Esential & Base System" (The programs just for mount, generated initrd, grub2, lilo,nano / joe,fsck, dhclient, boot partition, and slackpkg, without graphical env,no X / Mir / Wayland / Xfce, just the base)

2 - I think the first point because is just i need to make my own custom iso, instead reinstall all removed package from the iso of xfce live i had downloaded and recompile lost deps.

3 -i want make a customization inside the /boot parttion,like put inside a minial chroot env.

4 - well after i finish with my customizations,i read again how i should use the SlackLive scripts for know how ican put my custom version inside a USB Partition.
