Hi,

Thinking of creating an iso based on linux-lts kernel and am thinking about the best way to do it.

Only way I can think of is building base then adding lts kernel and removing linux [stock kernel]

Or create a new base-lts pkgbuild ?

MrG

For configs/releng, the most easy and qucky is adding linux-lts to additional packages.*, rework build.sh (s/vmlinuz/vmlinuz-lts/), remove linux pkg, modify syslinux/*.cfg adding "earlymodules=loop loop.max_loop=16" to each kernel command line and disable generation of efiboot.img ;)

I think that is all.

maybe we should add a parameter to archiso that lets you choose a kernel. good idea? bad idea? just a thought..
