Other neat uses for the modified_livecd-iso-to-disk script
non-live USB/SD
- Make second live USB from iso downloaded with wget to root of your USB/SD
(I used Bernie's Blueberry-Direct ext3 non-live real file system, expanded with gparted to fit a 8GB SD)
http://people.sugarlabs.org/bernie/soas-2-blueberry-direct-2GB.img.xz http://people.sugarlabs.org/Tgillard/soas-2-blueberry-direct-cleared-3GB.img.xz (modified and expanded version)
Downloaded to root:
wget http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/soas/soas-i386-20100411.16.iso (latest) [root@localhost ~]# ./modified_livecd-iso-to-disk soas-i386-20100411.16.iso /dev/sdd1 Verifying image... /root/soas-i386-20100411.16.iso: ca444a0f44d7b49204cec4f3022c3c97 Fragment sums: 5fba13ea314eeb4376b2d3a6411a4ae5aa95d38aea691e12fb86adfe88df Fragment count: 20 Checking: 100.0% The media check is complete, the result is: PASS. It is OK to use this media. Already set up as live image. Deleting old OS in fifteen seconds... Copying live image to USB stick Updating boot config file Installing boot loader USB stick set up as live image!
Live USB'
- Copy-paste soas-i386-20100405.17.iso (or any soas .iso) to a 2GB live USB while it is mounted in a PC
- copy-paste modified_livecd-iso-to-disk to same location from PC
reboot with USB
- reboot with this USB and proceed to write it to another 2GB USB:
- alternately do this:
In the Terminal Activity, change the working directory:
cd /mnt/live wget http://people.sugarlabs.org/fgrose/modified_livecd-iso-to-disk chmod +x modified_livecd-iso-to-disk
Make new USB
./modified_livecd-iso-to-disk soas-i386-20100405.17.iso /dev/sd(*)1
Works fine.... It should work with any live cd.iso
