You don't need to preface names with @ :P 13:26 jimi_c yes i do! 13:27 jimi_c it's habit damnit 13:27 SEJeff And no, it isn't super hard, I did it ~3.5-4 years ago and have been using a variant of it since to build a distro 13:27 SEJeff noooooooooooo! 13:27 jimi_c i'll check it out and update the docs 13:28 SEJeff Now if you don't have a read-only root fs and fill it up, dmsnapshot will cause a kernel oops and it will get really ugly 13:28 SEJeff So you pretty much need to guarantee / won't fill up or mount it up ro. You generally have to hack up the iso slightly, but it isn't hard if you know what you're doing.
