Title: Remaster Tiny Core Linux with Lxde - can you help me a little bit ??
Post by: mythbu on January 11, 2011, 06:46:51 AM
Hi guys,

I want to remaster the current Tiny Core Linux with the Lxde window manager!
So now I want to include the Lxde wm into TCL and remove the default wm. So after finishing the boot process TCL shoult start Lxde as default wm.

So I downloaded all packages for Lxde via appbrowser and put them onto a Ubuntu pc - where I am going to rebuild TCL. Then I extracted the iso image as described in the wiki to remaster TCL.

But now I don't know how to get forward. Which steps do I have to perform? How to get Lxde into TCL and get it work on startup?? I read the article http://wiki.tinycorelinux.com/Integrating+Extensions in the wiki but don't get on. I don't want to integrate or activate some persistence things.

So my question: could somebody give me a step-by-step list or something like this, so that I can get forward??

Greetings,
mythbu

EDIT: I replaced Xfce4 with Lxde, because I think, that the Lxde is more leightweight!

I am trying right now ezremaster.tcz. But there are so many config options and I don't know on which time the wm should started or to which list it should be added (initrc or boot time ???).

Isn't there an easy way? Can't I copy the needed and downloaded files to a specific directory in TCL and finish my remaster procress (pack it to tinycore.gz and then into the ISO image)??
