Hi all,
I am setting up a kiosk style system. Chrome browser only. Diskless machine, no persistent data.
I want to customise a lightweight distro, probably Lubuntu, and use a PXE boot from a server. I want zero manual intervention necessary on boot.
The server and PXE is set up and I can do the necessary custom config of a Lubuntu system but I am unclear as to how to create the necessary custom boot files.
How do I generate the necessary boot files for the server from a custom Lubuntu configuration?
Do I need to create a live usb Lubuntu install running, configure the system on the kiosk machine and then somehow export an iso or file set of the newly configured system?
Confused. :confused:
Cheers for any advice.
