it is because the contents of your myconf.conf override values specified on the commandline: > # Profiles to include on the CD > profiles="" > #profiles="x-basic ltsp" this resents the profiles value to empty. so it will then ignore the profile you selected on the commandline for some, if not all operations. i'd recommend just specifying it in the working directory: mkdir -p my-simple-cdd/profiles cd my-simple-cdd # you could use an editor rather than multiple calls to echo, of course: echo locale=en_US >> profiles/myprofile.conf echo server=ftp.egr.msu.edu >> profiles/myprofile.conf echo debian_mirror=http://$server/debian/ >> profiles/myprofile.conf echo wget_debian_mirror=ftp://$server/debian/ >> profiles/myprofile.conf # you can leave this out if you're building a lenny system: # echo profiles_udeb_dist=sid >> profiles/myprofile.conf # echo all_extras=/full/path/to/some/file >> profiles/myprofile.conf # drop all your other profiles/myprofile.* in profiles/ build-simple-cdd --profiles myprofile this keeps your commandline shorter, keeps non-packaged stuff in your working directory rather than in /usr/share/simple-cdd, and keeps the configuration all in one place. good luck! live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
