[\fB\-\-win32\-loader true|false]\fP + +.SH BESCHREIBUNG +\fBlh config\fP is a high\-level command (porcelain) of \fIlive\-helper\fP(7), the +Debian Live tool suite. +.PP +.\" FIXME +\fBlh config\fP populates the configuration directory for live\-helper. By +default, this directory is named 'config' and is created in the current +directory where \fBlh config\fP was executed. +.PP +.\" FIXME +Note: Currently \fBlh config\fP tries to be smart and sets defaults for some +options depending on the setting of other options (e.g. which linux packages +to be used depending on if a lenny system gets build or not). This means +that when generating a new configuration, you should call \fBlh config\fP only +once with all options specified. Calling it several times with only a subset +of the options each can result in non working configurations. This is also +caused by the fact that \fBlh config\fP called with one option only changes +that option, and leaves everything else as is unless its not +defined. However, \fBlh config\fP does warn about know impossible or likely +impossible combinations that would lead to non working live systems. If +unsure, remove config/{binary,bootstrap,chroot,common,source} and call \fBlh +config\fP again. + +.SH OPTIONEN +In addition to its specific options \fBlh config\fP understands all generic +live\-helper options. See \fIlive\-helper\fP(7) for a complete list of all +generic live\-helper options. +.PP +.\" FIXME +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\fP apt|aptitude" 4 +defines if apt\-get or aptitude is used to install packages when building the +image. When building etch images, this defaults to aptitude. Every other +distribution defaults to apt. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-ftp\-proxy\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the ftp proxy to be used by apt. By default, this is empty but if the +host has the environment variable ftp_proxy set, apt\-ftp\-proxy gets +automatically set to the value of ftp_proxy. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-http\-proxy\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the http proxy to be used by apt. By default, this is empty but if the +host has the environment variable http_proxy set, apt\-http\-proxy gets +automatically set to the value of http_proxy. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-pdiffs\fP true|false" 4 +defines whetever apt should use incremental package indices feature or +not. This is true by default. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-options\fP \fIOPTION\fP|\(dq\fIOPTIONS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines the default options that will be appended to every apt call that is +made inside chroot during the building of the image. By default, this is set +to \-\-yes to allow non\-interactive installation of packages. +.IP "\fB\-\-aptitude\-options\fP \fIOPTION\fP|\(dq\fIOPTIONS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines the default options that will be appended to every aptitude call +that is made inside chroot during building of the image. By default, this is +set to \-\-assume\-yes to allow non\-interactive installation of packages. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-pipeline\fP \fIDEPTH\fP" 4 +sets the depth of the apt/aptitude pipeline. In cases where the remote +server is not RFC conforming or buggy (such as Squid 2.0.2) this option can +be a value from 0 to 5 indicating how many outstanding requests APT should +send. A value of zero MUST be specified if the remote host does not properly +linger on TCP connections \- otherwise data corruption will occur. Hosts +which require this are in violation of RFC 2068. By default, live\-helper +does not set this option. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-recommends\fP true|false" 4 +defines if apt should install recommended packages automatically. By +default, this is true except in emdebian mode. +.IP "\fB\-\-apt\-secure\fP true|false" 4 +defines if apt should check repository signatures. This is true by default. +.IP "\-a|\fB\-\-architecture\fP \fIARCHITECTURE\fP" 4 +defines the architecture of the to be build image. By default, this is set +to the host architecture. Note that you cannot crossbuild for another +architecture if your host system is not able to execute binaries for the +target architecture natively. For example, building amd64 images on i386 and +vice versa is possile if you have a 64bit capable i386 processor and the +right kernel. But building powerpc images on an i386 system is not possible. +.IP "\-b|\fB\-\-binary\-images\fP iso|iso\-hybrid|net|tar|usb\-hdd" 4 +defines the image type to build. By default this is set to iso to build +CD/DVD images, for squeeze and newer it defaults to iso\-hybrid. +.IP "\fB\-\-binary\-filesystem\fP fat16|fat32|ext2" 4 +defines the filesystem to be used in the image type. This only has an effect +if the selected binary image type does allow to choose a filesystem. For +example, when selection iso the resulting CD/DVD has always the filesystem +ISO9660. When building usb\-hdd images for usb sticks, this is active. Note +that it defaults to fat16 on all architectures except sparc where it +defaults to ext2. Also note that if you choose fat16 and your resulting +binary image gets bigger than 2GB, the binary filesystem automatically gets +switched to fat32. +.IP "\fB\-\-binary\-indices\fP true|false|none" 4 +defines if the resulting images should have binary indices or not and +defaults to true. If set to none, no indices are included at all. +.IP "\fB\-\-bootappend\-install\fP \fIPARAMETER\fP|\(dq\fIPARAMETERS\fP\(dq" 4 +sets boot parameters specific to debian\-installer, if included. +.IP "\fB\-\-bootappend\-live\fP \fIPARAMETER\fP|\(dq\fIPARAMETERS\fP\(dq" 4 +sets boot parameters specific to debian\-live. A complete list of boot +parameters can be found, for etch, in the manpage of casper, for all other +distributions in the manpage of live\-initramfs. On the images, a list of all +parameters (without comments) is included in the /parameters.txt. +.IP "\fB\-\-bootloader\fP grub|syslinux|yaboot" 4 +defines which bootloader is beeing used in the generated image. This has +only an effect if the selected binary image type does allow to choose the +bootloader. For example, if you build a iso, always syslinux (or more +precise, isolinux) is being used. Also note that some combinations of binary +images types and bootloaders may be possible but live\-helper does not +support them yet. \fBlh config\fP will fail to create such a not yet supported +configuration and give a explanation about it. For usb\-hdd images on amd64 +and i386, the default is syslinux. yaboot is only used on powerpc. +.IP "\fB\-\-bootstrap\fP cdebootstrap|cdebootstrap\-static|debootstrap|copy" 4 +defines which program is used to bootstrap the debian chroot, default is +debootstrap. Note that if you set the bootstrap program to copy, then your +host system is copied. This can be useful if you want to convert/clone your +existing host system into a live system, however, make sure you do have +enough free space as this can, depending on your host system, get quite big. +.IP "\fB\-\-bootstrap\-config\fP \fIFILE\fP" 4 +sets a custom configuration file for the boostrap programm of choice and is +empty by default. Refere to the documentation of debootstrap or cdebootstrap +for more information about that. When the bootstrap program is set to copy, +this has no effect. +.IP "\-f|\fB\-\-bootstrap\-flavour\fP minimal|standard" 4 +defines if the bootstrap program should bootstrap the standard system (all +packages of priority required and important, which is the default) or a +minimal system (only packages of priority required, plus apt). +.IP "\fB\-\-bootstrap\-keyring\fP \fIPACKAGE\fP" 4 +sets the archive keyring package to be used. Default is +debian\-archive\-keyring. +.IP "\fB\-\-cache\fP true|false" 4 +defines globally if any cache should be used at all. Different caches can be +controled through the their own options. +.IP "\fB\-\-cache\-indices\fP true|false" 4 +defines if downloaded package indices and lists should be cached which is +false by default. Enabling it would allow to rebuild an image completely +offline, however, you would not get updates anymore then. +.IP "\fB\-\-cache\-packages\fP true|false" 4 +defines if downloaded packages files should be cached which is true by +default. Disabling it does save space consumtion in your build directory, +but remember that you will cause much unnecessary traffic if you do a couple +of rebuilds. In general you should always leave it true, however, in some +particular rare build setups, it can be faster to refetch packages from the +local network mirror rather than to utilize the local disk. +.IP "\fB\-\-cache\-stages\fP true|false|\fISTAGE\fP|\(dq\fISTAGES\fP\(dq" 4 +sets which stages should be cached. By default set to bootstrap. As an +exception to the normal stage names, also rootfs can be used here which does +only cache the generated root filesystem in +filesystem.{dir,ext*,squashfs}. This is useful during development if you +want to rebuild the binary stage but not regenerate the root filesystem all +the time. +.IP "\fB\-\-checksums\fP md5|sha1|sha256|none" 4 +defines if the binary image should contain a file called md5sums.txt, +sha1sums.txt and/or sha256sums.txt. These lists all files on the image +together with their checksums. This in turn can be used by live\-initramfs' +built\-in integrity\-check to verify the medium if specified at boot +prompt. In general, this should not be false and is an important feature of +live system released to the public. However, during development of very big +images it can save some time by not calculating the checksums. +.IP "\fB\-\-build\-with\-chroot\fP true|false" 4 +defines whetever live\-helper should use the tools from within the chroot to +build the binary image or not by using and including the host systems +tools. This is a very dangerous option, using the tools of the host system +can lead to tainted and even non\-bootable images if the host systems version +of the required tools (mainly these are the bootloaders such as syslinux, +grub and yaboot, and the auxilliary tools such as dosfstools, genisoimage, +squashfs\-tools and others) do not \fBexactely\fP match what is present at +build\-time in the target distribution. Never do disable this option unless +you are \fBexactely\fP sure what you are doing and have \fBcompletely\fP\fI +understood its consequences.\fP +.IP "\fB\-\-chroot\-filesystem\fP ext2|ext3|squashfs|plain|jffs2" 4 +defines which filesystem type should be used for the root filesystem +image. If you use plain, then no filesystem image is created and the root +filesystem content is copied on the binary image filesystem as flat +files. Depending on what binary filesystem you have choosen, it may not be +possible to build with a plain root filesystem, e.g. fat16/fat32 and plain +don't work as linux does not support to run on them. +.IP \fB\-\-clean\fP 4 +minimizes config directory by automatically removing unused and thus empty +subdirectories. +.IP "\-c|\fB\-\-conffile\fP \fIFILE\fP" 4 +using a user specified alternative configuration file in addition to the +normally used one in the config directory. +.IP "\fB\-\-debconf\-frontend\fP dialog|editor|noninteractive|readline" 4 +defines what value the debconf frontend should be set to inside the +chroot. Note that setting it to anything by noninteractive, which is the +default, makes your build asking questions during the build. +.IP "\fB\-\-debconf\-nowarnings\fP true|false" 4 +defines if warnings of debconf should be displayed or not. Warnings from +debconf are generally very rare and by default, we skipp them, if any, in +order to keep the build process entirely non interactive. +.IP "\fB\-\-debconf\-priority\fP low|medium|high|critical" 4 +defines what value the debconf priority shoul dbe set to inside the +chroot. By default, it is set to critical, which means that almost no +questions are displayed. Note that this only has an effect if you use any +debconf frontend different from noninteractive. +.IP "\fB\-\-debian\-installer\fP true|cdrom|netinst|netboot|businesscard|live|false" 4 +defines which type, if any, of the debian\-installer should be included in +the resulting binary image. By default, no installer is included. All +available flavours except live are the identical configurations used on the +installer media produced by regular debian\-cd. When live is choosen, the +live\-installer udeb is included so that debian\-installer will behave +different than usual \- instead of installing the debian system from packages +from the medium or the network, it installs the live system to the disk. +.IP "\fB\-\-debian\-installer\-distribution\fP daily|\fICODENAME\fP" 4 +defines the distribution where the debian\-installer files should be taken +out from. Normally, this should be set to the same distribution as the live +system. However, some times, one wants to use a newer or even daily built +installer. +.IP "\fB\-\-debian\-installer\-preseedfile\fP \fIFILE\fP|\fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the filename or URL for an optionally used and included preseeding file +for debian\-installer. +.IP "\fB\-\-debian\-installer\-gui\fP true|false" 4 +defines if the debian\-installer graphical GTK interface should be true or +not. In Debian mode and for most versions of Ubuntu, this option is true, +whereas otherwise false, by default. +.IP "\-d|\fB\-\-distribution\fP \fICODENAME\fP" 4 +defines the distribution of the resulting live system. +.IP \-\-\fBdump\fP 4 +prepares a report of the currently present live system configuration and the +version of live\-helper used. This is useful to provide if you submit bug +reports, we do get all informations required for us to locate and replicate +an error. +.IP "\-e|\fB\-\-encryption\fP false|aes128|aes192|aes256" 4 +defines if the root filesystem should be encrypted or not. By default, this +is false. +.IP "\fB\-\-fdisk\fP fdisk|fdisk.dist" 4 +sets the filename of the fdisk binary from the host system that should be +used. This is autodetected and does generally not need any customization. +.IP "\fB\-\-grub\-splash\fP \fIFILE\fP" 4 +defines the name of an optional to be included splash screen graphic for the +grub bootloader. +.IP "\fB\-\-gzip\-options\fP \fIOPTION\fP|\(dq\fIOPTIONS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines the default options that will be appended to (almost) every gzip +call during the building of the image. By default, this is set to \-\-best to +use highest (but slowest) compression. Dynamically, if the host system +supports it, also \-\-rsyncable is added. +.IP "\fB\-\-hooks\fP \fIFILE\fP" 4 +defines which hooks available in /usr/share/live/build/examples/hooks should +be activated. Normally, there are no hooks executed. Make sure you know and +understood the hook before you enable it. +.IP "\fB\-\-hostname\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the hostname of the live system. +.IP \fB\-\-ignore\-system\-defaults\fP 4 +\fBlh config\fP by default reads system defaults from /etc/default/live\-helper +when generating a new live system config directory. This is useful if you +want to set global settings, such as mirror locations, and don't want to +specify them all of the time. +.IP "\fB\-\-includes\fP \fIPATH\fP" 4 +sets the path to the includes that live\-helper is going to use, +e.g. additional minimal documentation that you want to have on all live +systems. By default, this is set to /usr/share/live/build/includes/. +.IP "\fB\-\-initramfs\fP auto|live\-initramfs|casper" 4 +sets the name of package that contains the live system specific initramfs +modification. By default, auto is used, which means that at build time of +the image rather than on configuration time, the value will be expanded to +casper when building etch systems and to live\-initramfs for all other +systems. +.IP "\fB\-\-interactive\fP shell" 4 +defines if after the chroot stage and before the beginning of the binary +stage, a interactive shell login should be spawned in the chroot in order to +allow you to do manual customizations. Once you close the shell with logout +or exit, the build will continue as usual. Note that it's strongly +discouraged to use this for anything else than testing. Modifications that +should be present in all builds of a live system should be properly made +through hooks. Everything else destroys the beauty of being able to +completely automatise the build process and making it non interactive. By +default, this is of course false. +.IP "\fB\-\-iso\-application\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the APPLICATION field in the header of a resulting CD/DVD image and +defaults to "Debian Live" in debian mode, and to "Emdebian Live" in emdebian +mode, and "Ubuntu Live" in ubuntu mode. +.IP "\fB\-\-iso\-preparer\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the PREPARER field in the header of a resulting CD/DVD image. By +default this is set to "live\-helper \fIVERSION\fP; +http://packages.qa.debian.org/live\-helper", whereas VERSION is expanded to +the version of live\-helper that was used to build the image. +.IP "\fB\-\-iso\-publisher\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the PUBLISHED field in the header of a resulting CD/DVD image. By +default, this is set to 'Debian Live project; http:/live.debian.net/; +debian\-live@lists.debian.org'. Remember to change this to the appropriate +values at latest when you distributing custom and unofficial images. +.IP "\fB\-\-iso\-volume\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the VOLUME field in the header of a resulting CD/DVD and defaults to +\&'(\fIMODE\fP) (\fIDISTRIBUTION\fP) (\fIDATE\fP)' whereas MODE is expanded to the name +of the mode in use, DISTRIBUTION the distribution name, and DATE with the +current date and time of the generation. When running in debian\-release mode +however, it will instead default to 'Debian (\fIVERSION\fP) (\fIARCHITECTURE\fP) +live' where VERSION becomes the numerical version of the release being built +and ARCHITECTURE becomes the name of the architecture. +.IP "\fB\-\-jffs2\-eraseblock\fP \fISIZE\fP" 4 +sets the eraseblock size for a JFFS2 (Second Journalling Flash File System) +filesystem. The default is 64 KiB. If you use an erase block size different +than the erase block size of the target MTD device, JFFS2 may not perform +optimally. If the SIZE specified is below 4096, the units are assumed to be +KiB. +.IP "\fB\-\-keyring\-packages\fP \fIPACKAGE|\(dqPACKAGES\fP\(dq" 4 +sets the keyring package or additional keyring packages. By default this is +set to debian\-archive\-keyring. +.IP "\-l|\fB\-\-language\fP \fILANGUAGE\fP" 4 +sets the language of a live system by installing l10n related packages. It +doesn't enable generation of the correct locales through setting the right +boot parameters, those need to be done through the bootappend\-live +parameter. +.IP "\-k|\fB\-\-linux\-flavours\fP \fIFLAVOUR\fP|\(dq\fIFLAVOURS\fP\(dq" 4 +sets the kernel flavours to be installed. Note that in case you specify more +than that the first will be configured the default kernel that gets booted. +.IP "\fB\-\-linux\-packages\fP \(dq\fIPACKAGES\fP\(dq" 4 +sets the internal name of the kernel packages naming scheme. If you use +debian kernel packages, you will not have to adjust it. If you decide to use +custom kernel packages that do not follow the debian naming scheme, remember +to set this option to the stub of the packages only (for debian this is +linux\-image\-2.6), so that \fISTUB\fP\-\fIFLAVOUR\fP results in a valid package name +(for debian e.g. linux\-image\-2.6\-486). Preferably you use the meta package +name, if any, for the stub, so that your configuration is ABI +independent. Also don't forget that you have to include stubs of the binary +modules packages for unionfs or aufs, and squashfs if you built them +out\-of\-tree. +.IP "\fB\-\-losetup\fP losetup|losetup.orig" 4 +sets the filename of the losetup binary from the host system that should be +used. This is autodetected and does generally not need any customization. +.IP "\fB\-\-memtest\fP memtest86+|memtest86|none" 4 +defines if memtest, memtest86+ or no memory tester at all should be included +as secondary bootloader configuration. This is only available on amd64 and +i386 and defaults to memtest86+. +.IP "\-m|\fB\-\-mirror\-bootstrap\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the debian package mirror that should be used to +bootstrap from. +.IP "\fB\-\-mirror\-binary\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the debian package mirror that should end up configured +in the final image and which is the one a user would see and use. This has +not necessarily to be the same that is used to build the image, e.g. if you +use a local mirror but want to have an official mirror in the image. By +default, 'http://cdn.debian.net/debian/' is used. +.IP "\fB\-\-mirror\-binary\-security\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the debian security package mirror that should end up +configuered in the final image. By default, +\&'http://cdn.debian.net/debian\-security/' is used. +.IP "\fB\-\-mirror\-chroot\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the debian package mirror that will be used to fetch +the packages in order to build the live system. By default, this points to +http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ which may not be a good default if you live +outside the U.S. +.IP "\fB\-\-mirror\-chroot\-security\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the debian security package mirror that will be used to +fetch the packages in order to build the live system. By default, this +points to http://security.debian.org/debian/. +.IP "\fB\-\-mirror\-debian\-installer\fP \fIURL\fP" 4 +sets the location of the mirror that will be used to fetch the debian +installer images. By default, this points to the same mirror used to build +the live system. +.IP "\fB\-\-mode\fP debian|emdebian|ubuntu" 4 +defines a global mode to load project specific defaults. By default this is +set to debian. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-filesystem\fP nfs|cfs" 4 +defines the filesystem that will be configured in the bootloader +configuration for your netboot image. This defaults to nfs. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-mountoptions\fP \fIOPTIONS\fP" 4 +sets additional options for mounting the root filesystem in netboot images +and is by default empty. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-path\fP \fIPATH\fP" 4 +sets the file path that will be configured in the bootloader configuration +for your netboot image. This defaults to /srv/debian\-live in debian mode and +to /srv/emebian\-live when being in emdebian mode, and /srv/ubuntu\-live when +in ubuntu mode. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-root\-server\fP \fIIP\fP|\fIHOSTNAME\fP" 4 +sets the IP or hostname that will be configured in the bootloader +configuration for the root filesystem of your netboot image. This defaults +to 192.168.1.1. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-filesystem\fP nfs|cfs" 4 +defines the filesystem type for the copy\-on\-write layer and defaults to nfs. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-mountoptions\fP \fIOPTIONS\fP" 4 +sets additional options for mounting the copy\-on\-write layer in netboot +images and is by default empty. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-path\fP \fIPATH\fP" 4 +defines the path to client writable filesystem. Anywhere that +\fIclient_mac_address\fP is specified in the path live\-initramfs will +substitute the MAC address of the client delimited with hyphens. +.PP +.IP "" 4 +Example: +.br +/export/hosts/client_mac_address +.br +/export/hosts/00\-16\-D3\-33\-92\-E8 +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-cow\-server\fP \fIIP\fP|\fIHOSTNAME\fP" 4 +sets the IP or hostname that will be configured in the bootloader +configuration for the copy\-on\-write filesystem of your netboot image and is +by default empty. +.IP "\fB\-\-net\-tarball\fP bzip2|gzip|tar|none" 4 +defines the format of the netboot image. Choosing tar results in a not +compressed tarball, bzip2 and gzip in a bzip2 resp. gzip compressed +tarball. Choosing none leads to no tarball at all, the plain binary +directory is considered the output in this case. Default is gzip. +.IP "\-p|\fB\-\-packages\-lists\fP \fILIST\fP|\(dq\fILISTS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines which lists available in /usr/share/live/build/lists should be +used. By default, this is set to standard. Note that in case you have local +packages lists, you don't need to list them here. Putting them into +config/chroot_local\-packageslists is enough (the filename needs to have the +\&.list suffix though). +.IP "\fB\-\-packages\fP \fIPACKAGE\fP|\(dq\fIPACKAGES\fP\(dq" 4 +defines one or more packages to be installed in the live system. This is a +quick and convenient place to add a few packages when building an image +(limited by the max length of shell). Packages that should be permanently +installed should be put into a local packages list. +.IP "\fB\-r, \-\-repositories\fP \fIREPOSITORY\fP|\(dq\fIREPOSITORIES\fP\(dq" 4 +enables one of available third\-party repository configurations in +/usr/share/live/build/repositories. +.IP "\fB\-\-root\-command\fP sudo" 4 +controls if live\-helper should use sudo internally to build the live +image. Note that this is not well tested and that you should, when relying +on sudo, call the individual live\-helper command with sudo itself. +.IP "\fB\-\-use\-fakeroot\fP true|false" 4 +controls if live\-helper should utilize fakeroot and fakechroot to try and +avoid requiring root privillages where possible. By default, this option is +false. +.IP "\fB\-\-archive\-areas\fP \fIARCHIVE_AREA\fP|\(dq\fIARCHIVE_AREAS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines which package archive areas of a debian packages archive should be +used for configured debian package mirrors. By default, this is set to +main. Remember to check the licenses of each packages with respect to their +redistributability in your juristiction when enabling contrib or non\-free +with this mechanism. +.IP "\fB\-\-security\fP true|false" 4 +defines if the security repositories specified in the security mirror +options should be used or not. +.IP "\fB\-\-source\fP true|false" 4 +defines if a corresponding source image to the binary image should be +build. By default this is false because most people do not require this and +would require to download quite a few source packages. However, once you +start distributing your live image, you should make sure you build it with a +source image alongside. +.IP "\-s|\fB\-\-source\-images\fP iso|net|tar|usb\-hdd" 4 +defines the image type for the source image. Default is tar. +.IP "\fB\-\-symlinks\fP true|false" 4 +defines if the symlink hack should be true or false. The symlink hack +converts all absolute symlinks to relative ones. By default this is false +and in general there is no need or gain to enable it. If you are in a +special situation that requires this, you will know. +.IP "\fB\-\-syslinux\-splash\fP \fIFILE\fP" 4 +defines the file of the syslinux splash graphic that should be used instead +of the default one. +.IP "\fB\-\-syslinux\-timeout\fP \fISECONDS\fP" 4 +defines the timeout the syslinux bootloader should wait for input from the +user at the bootprompt prior booting the default kernel. This defaults to 0 +which means it will wait forever. +.IP "\fB\-\-syslinux\-menu\fP true|false" 4 +defines if syslinux should be make use of the vgamenu capabilities or not. +.IP "\fB\-\-sysvinit\fP true|false" 4 +defines if the sysvinit hack should be true or false. The sysvinit hack +disables all non\-essential services from starting up at bootup in order to +reduce overall boottime. By default this is false and in general there you +don't want to enable it. +.IP "\fB\-\-tasksel\fP aptitude|tasksel" 4 +selects which program is used to install tasks. By default, this is set to +tasksel. +.IP "\fB\-\-tasks\fP \fITASK\fP|\(dq\fITASKS\fP\(dq" 4 +defines one or more package tasks to be installed in the live system. This +is a quick and convenient way to get a reasonable default selection of +packages suitable for most users when building an image, but it results in +quite big images. If you want to have finer grained package selections, +local packages lists should be used instead. +.IP "\fB\-\-templates\fP \fIPATH\fP" 4 +sets the path to the templates that live\-helper is going to use, e.g. for +bootloaders. By default, this is set to /usr/share/live/build/templates/. +.IP "\fB\-\-virtual\-root\-filesystem\fP ext3" 4 +defines what filesystem to format the root filesystem when building +virtual\-hdd images. +.IP "\fB\-\-virtual\-root\-size\fP MB" 4 +defines what size the virtual\-hdd image should be. Note that although the +default is set to 10000 (= 10GB), it will not need 10GB space on your +harddisk as the files are created as sparse files. +.IP "\fB\-\-exposed\-root\fP true|false" 4 +defines whether to expose the root filesystem as read only and not covered +by the union filesystem. This has useful implications for certain speciality +setups such as LTSP. By default, this option is false. +.IP "\fB\-\-username\fP \fINAME\fP" 4 +sets the name of the account of the default user in the live system. +.IP "\fB\-\-win32\-loader true|false\fP" 4 +.\" FIXME +defines if win32\-loader should be included in the binary image or not. + +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.\" FIXME +.\" FIXME +All command line switches can also be specified through the corresponding +environment variable. Environment variables are name LH_FOO, means, +e.g. \-\-apt\-ftp\-proxy becomes LH_APT_FTP_PROXY. However, this generally +should not be used. + +.SH DATEIEN +.\" FIXME +.IP \fBauto/config\fP 4 +.IP \fB/etc/default/live\-helper\fP 4 +.\" FIXME +An optional, global configuration file for \fBlh config\fP variables. It is +useful to specify a few system wide defaults, like LH_MIRROR_BOOTSTRAP. This +feature can be false by specifying the \fB\-\-ignore\-system\-defaults\fP option. + +.SH "SIEHE AUCH" +\fIlive\-helper\fP(7) +.PP +Dieses Programm ist Teil von live\-helper. + +.SH HOMEPAGE +Weitere Informationen über live\-helper und das Debian Live Projekt können +auf der Homepage unter <\fIhttp://live.debian.net/\fP> und im Handbuch +unter <\fIhttp://live.debian.net/manual/\fP> gefunden werden. + +.SH FEHLER +Fehler können durch Einreichen eines Fehlerberichtes für das live\-helper +Paket im Debian Bug Tracking System unter +<\fIhttp://bugs.debian.org/\fP> oder durch Senden einer E\-Mail an die +Debian Live Mailing Liste unter <\fIdebian\-live@lists.debian.org\fP> +(englischsprachig) mitgeteilt werden. + +.SH AUTOR +live\-helper wurde von Daniel Baumann <\fIdaniel@debian.org\fP> für das +Debian Projekt geschrieben. |
