Juanito:
The situation is analogous to that of a hard disk.

You mount a hd, you write some data and you unmount the hd - the next time you mount the hd, the new data is there.

So, you mount the piCore image, you write some data and you unmount the image - the next time you dd the image to a sd card, the new data is there.

oh damn, really? I guess that makes sense, I just didn't know images can be modified like that. Is this only applicable for IMG files or even ISOs?
I am gonna try this out and report.

curaga:
ISOs are read-only, but in general you can loop mount and edit all kinds of images. Floppies, zip disks, hard disks...

It worked. Thanks a lot :)

My further questions would be about specific bits around customization, but I guess new topics/questions are better suited unless you folks recommend I continue with this topic.
