Create an ISO Installer
After creating one or more flash images (.img.gz
files) using Create a Flash Image, you can generate a Hybrid ISO (.iso
file) that can be directly booted when dd'ed to a USB flash drive, booted in a Virtual Machine, or mounted as an ISO disk.
The process is quite straight-forward, but does require the Development Environment to be installed.
$ ./scripts/build-runnix-iso Usage: ./scripts/build-runnix-iso install_image.img.gz|install_image_dir [serial]
The first argument can be a single .img.gz
file or a directory of .img.gz
files.
The optional second argument serial
will create a serial console of 19200n8, without it the default is a VGA video console for the installer.
Finally, to see how this ISO installer can be used, follow New Installation for the process.
