Creating a Complete Distribution on CD (Linux Journal)
Linux Journal looks at the
process of creating a Linux CD. "In creating a Linux
distribution that can boot from a CD-ROM and doesn't need anything else,
you are likely to encounter some challenges. The main problem is the root
filesystem is read-only, but some files have to be created and/or
modified. This stage concerns files in /dev, in /var and eventually in the
user's home directory. The next challenge is to turn off everything you do
not need, especially commands that try to create a file somewhere."
