@aosucas499 I just tested eggs produce -s, it work normally. Take cure to execute sudo eggs kill before to produce and, give the script ./bind from /home/eggs/ovarium this command mount --bind the filesystems in /home/eggs/ovarium/filesystem.squashfs. Perhas you tried to launch ./mksquashfs and ./mkiso without mount the live filesystem (script ./bind)

@aosucas499
Thank you... I'll try it!
I produced my distro modifying grub, and calamares, it's amazing your tool, congratulations
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti

It was a mistake when I install with calamares in efi partition, it needs grub-amd64-signed and shim-signed
github.com/aosucas499/guadalinex... it's a distro for the Andalusian government to use in schools, but the didn't produce installer, it's based in Ubuntu focal
Well a good reat project, I saw it times ago and thought always why in Italy we don't make something similar for public offices and governement

@aosucas499
It's good but it was good in the past times, now days for lack of money they only change a few things from Ubuntu...thank to your tool now we have iso to install in all computers
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
I will try it later... if you want I can include yours modification in calamares themes and add a theme like guadalinex directly inside the source
aosucas499
@aosucas499
For me perfect, I didn't change very deep...
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
I think can be good for both, eggs will get another theme and you can get eggs with your customization inside
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Only for testing so the teachers try and give feedback but It will be amazing if you include, in the folder /isobuilder/eggs/eggs-install you have the modifications.
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
yes, it was enought famous same time ago, perhhps 5, 5 years ago
ok, I will look later.
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Thank you so much!
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
Another thing, I put same instruction for safe mode in the cd... probably are not so good. If you write them better it's an help too and i will include too in the next version
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Do you mean translation?
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
no, I mead the safe option in the grub menu in the cd or in the isolinux menu always in the cd... I dont think thew work well
aosucas499
@aosucas499
I'll try it to give you feedback
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
ok, thanx
well, very happy to have you and guadalinex :-D

I'm just installing your linux in a VM, look nice
aosucas499
@aosucas499
It's not mine, it was developed for the andalusian government jajaj
I only generated the system from Ubuntu and their repo
The safe menu give me kernel panic
Unable to mount root fs on unknow-block(1,0)
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
of course, I mean Im the iso we are speacking about... it look a school version
yes, probably I used same bad configurations as I remember I copied it from same debian or ubuntu iso, but you know it is not so much used and it is broken
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Ah ok
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
You used eggs in a completely different way, yes, i know it is a command line tool, but I'm amazing from your eggs-install.sh. This confirm me who write a cli tool and not a gui application is good. Never I thought to use eggs in this way, but yes it is possible!
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
@aosucas499 don't worry for the safe option, just checked and was a quite stupid error, in God know that editing sessione I wrote APPEND initrd={{{vmlinuz}}} ... in the place of APPEND initrd={{{initrdImg}}}... etc. Quite stupid but never checked :-D
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Great! Those mistakes normally happen
aosucas499
@aosucas499
Yes, it was a good idea you write a cli-tool. Why are you surprised the way I used penguin-eggs?😬
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
becouse I thoug alway to use flag for example for theme, but to have just a directory, an install-eggs and all the configurations in it is better.
everyone know that are her needs, less code for me and the same or better results
everyone can manage it, just few files and you can customize not only calamares branding but partition,yml and so on. For example I have idea to have a versione of proxmox-ve with gui. I made iso, but became difficult to integrate all the thing, in this way can be short
aosucas499
@aosucas499
I think the flag -theme is a really good idea, but you know, I did in that way in a quicker way for testing purpose
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
yes, same things can be good with flags, but not all a script can be better. Almost this thought after see your way to use eggs
aosucas499
@aosucas499
I'm glad you like the way I modified
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
also the use of eggs produce --vs to test the production and after produce the iso normally is a nide idea
nice idea
aosucas499
@aosucas499
I did that because the eggs produce need the focal sources and the final version of my distro won't. So I used -vs, being sure it installs all the dependencies, I delete focal repo and I run produce being sure the final version won't give mistakes

@pieroproietti
@aosucas499 Hola, I just upload the last version of eggs 7.7.4 with the guadalinex theme. I used an icon from internet and perhaps you have better icons, I have also idea to expand theme a little more. es: add theme name to the iso image eg: GUIDELINEX_basename-YYYY-MM-DD-HH:MM.iso r think about the possibility to include default desktop wallpapers and so on. It' work in progress, but look to run correctly. To update eggs just sudo eggs update, choose basked and you will get last four versione from sourceforce. I hope you will like, but with time will be better
btw. the actual version of theme include calamares and both isolinux and grub configuration for liveCD

@aosucas499
Hi Piero. Thank you so much!!!!!! I'll try it

@aosucas499
Hi Piero, after the amazing results of your tool in new Guadalinex, in our schools, time ago we are developing an old version of a distro linux based in debian jessie, for our old computers, it goes really well,with updates browsers, etc...but our installer in some old computer give problems, i was thinking in use your tool but with the Debian no not calamares installer. How can I adapt so the tool think I'm in debian stretch(sometimes we use the stretch repos in apt) thanks
Piero Proietti
@pieroproietti
@aosucas499 good mornirg. Well I'm really happy for that. I think you can use the internal installer of eggs, it's CLI and have same revision to do but it work on staandard BIOS, yesterday I just used it with a remaster of SODILINUX an italian remix based on Linux Mint Ulyssa, I had the problem to not be able to install it with calamares so I just used CLI installer (sudo eggs install --cli). Times are passed from our meet now eggs come with simple manPage, just man eggs and others improvements (I extended your way to customize CDROM boot check addon/eggs/theme and so on. I just was thinking about the need to improve eggs installer for cases cannot be usable calamares, so you are back... just in the right time!
