-
-<p>This is a quick run through of the steps needed to download <em>larch</em>
-and use it to build a <em>live</em> system from one of the example profiles
-provided in the 'larch-profiles' package. You can use this as an introduction
-to <em>larch</em>, and as a basis for your own customized system if you like.
-</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li>Make sure you have 'python' and 'python-pexpect' packages installed.
- </li>
- <li>Download the latest
- <a href="ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/larch/larch7.2/i686/larch-setup">
- <strong>larch-setup</strong></a> script
- to an empty working directory. Then run it (it is a shell script).
- It will download and prepare the 'larch' and 'larch-profiles' packages
- so that they can be used within this directory.
- </li>
- <li>Several links will appear in the working directory. These point at the
- individual <em>larch</em> scripts. Each has a usage message which you
- can read by running the script with the '-h' option (e.g.
- './larch-archin -h')
- </li>
- <li>For this example run I will use the 'xmini' profile (which builds a
- simple XFCE based system). The following steps must be carried out as root.
- </li>
- <li>Install the base <em>Arch</em> system to the default location
- ('/home/larchbuild'):
- <ul>
- <li>If you are running <em>Arch</em> the default package mirror is taken
- from /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. On a non-<em>Arch</em> system this file
- (probably) won't exist, in which case the first uncommented server in
- larch0/data/mirrorlist is used (this file comes from the 'pacman-allin'
- package, which should be downloaded automatically in this case). The
- default server might be alright, but if not you should edit this file.
- </li>
- <li><pre>./larch-archin -p larch0/profiles/xmini install</pre>
- </li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Prepare the <em>live</em> system. This script compresses the
- installation using squashfs and also builds a squashed overlay containing
- all the customizations necessary for the <em>live</em> system, plus those
- specified in the profile:
- <pre>./larch-larchify -p larch0/profiles/xmini</pre>
- </li>
- <li>Create a bootable 'iso' containing the <em>live</em> system:
- <pre>./larch-live_iso -p larch0/profiles/xmini</pre>
- </li>
- <li>As an alternative to the last step, make a bootable USB-stick:
- Insert the stick and double-check the name of the partition to install to.
- I will assume /dev/sdb1 here:
- <pre>./larch-live_part -p larch0/profiles/xmini sdb1</pre>
- </li>
- <li>If all that worked, you can test the resulting 'iso' in (for example)
- <em>virtualbox</em> (select the 'vesa' option from the boot menu, otherwise
- <em>xorg</em> probably won't start), or try to boot from the USB-stick.
- </li>
- <li>If you want to try your hand at designing your own system, the main
- place to look for details of the customization process is the
- section <a href="profiles.html">Profiles</a>.
- </li>
- <li> Share and Enjoy!</li>
