[Simple-cdd-devel] simple-cdd with custom d-i

[Xavier Oswald]

Hi,

Im trying to use simple-cdd with a d-i image I have builded with some
customizations from the d-i svn.

As you can see[1], simple-cdd find the debian-installer I have builded.
D-i was done with "build_cdrom_gtk" so that I have debian-cd_info.tar.gzip,
initrd.gz and vmlinuz.

The point is that I have used some home-made udebs replacing some of the
officials d-i udebs. How should I include them while running simple-cdd ?

I think Im missing something to get it working...
I have set the "custom_installer" var to the correct path. Do I need something more ?


AFAICS, the relevant errors are:
 - cp: cannot stat `/home/debian/simple-cdd/tmp//mirror/dists/sid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/cdrom/initrd.gz': No such file or directory
 - find: `/home/debian/simple-cdd/tmp//cd-build/sid/CD1/pool': No such file or directory
