I've been modifying the Debian installer for the first release of SprezzOS. It's been quite the PITA.

Build environment

  • debootstrap --variant buildd http://ftp.us.debian.org unstable
  • apt-get source debian-installer
    • the resulting directory is DIROOT

Custom debian-installer

  • enter DIROOT
  • edit build/conf/common
  • ensure any custom udebs are in build/localudebs
  • ensure any custom udebs are listed in build/pkg-lists/local
  • dpkg-buildpackage
  • for simple-cdd (outside the chroot):
    • mkdir -p tmp/mirror/dists/sid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/
    • cp -r DIROOT/build/dest/* tmp/mirror/dists/sid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/
    • add "custom_installer=DIROOT/build/dest" to simple-cdd's configuration file
    • add the debian-installer deb to --local-packages
    • add DIROOT/build/localudebs to --local-packages

Custom kernel

  • apt-get source linux-2.6
    • apt-get install linux-source-3.2 gets you a /usr/src tarball with no debian/ subdirectory
    • apt-get install linux-source gets you something called 'linux_latest' (investigate!)
  • cd linux-2.6-3.2.14 or whatever
  • dpkg-buildpackage -j8

output includes a full set of udebs:
