If you are new to the project, 1.1.Welcome1.1.! Please help by testing. Thank you!

Building on a Debian system:

  1. Download and install the latest live-helper from the Debial Live repository: 'deb http://live.debian.net/debian/ ./'
  2. git clone git://git.debian.org/git/debian-live/config-webc.git
  3. webconverger/ is the base config file
  4. Take a long good look at scripts/config
  5. lh_config to setup the configuration (this is the new live-helper 'autoconfig' style)
  6. sudo lh_build in webconverger/ to kick off the long build process

Then test your freshly built image.

  1. todo has a list of bugs that need to be fixed. Please help Webconverger out and you will be acknowledged for your contribution.
  2. Check out the testing setup guide for testing with netboot on native hardware
  3. Join the Debian Live community. Peruse the debian-live mailing list archives. :)

Debugging mode with the build Webconverger image

Debugging in Webconverger simply involves removing nosudo from the boot options.

Commerical customizing service

UK based Webconverger Limited offers a build service of the above at Webconverger.com/buy.

Daily building

If you want to debug with the daily build scripts:

DEBUG=1 sudo -E ./build.sh mini.willwork

Then look in /tmp/ for a temp directory named willwork and inspect the output.

Debugging live-helper

Checking your environment is sane:

export MIRROR_DEBIAN="http://mirror.webconverger.com/debian/" && lh_config -b iso -a i386 -p minimal --mirror-bootstrap $MIRROR_DEBIAN --mirror-chroot $MIRROR_DEBIAN
sudo lh_build
