build a custom livedvd image

[fabritrento]

I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization to build a custom dvd image (from xubuntu 13.10 i386 livecd)

The problem is that if i boot the new livecd, the boot hangs after bonjour/cups service is started, wothout errors. How i can increase the boot logging?

Someone can help me fix this problem?

thankyou very much

the things i've done in chroot is:


sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
google-talkplugin.list'
wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -

Are you booting this on the same machine you created it on? Also this:


The architecture (Amd64 or i386) to be stored on the LiveCD should be the same as the architecture used to perform the customization, or the LiveCD may not run. It is not trivial to customize an AMD64 LiveCD using an i386 operating system, for example.

You're building a 32bit image probably on a 64bit machine. That probably won't work according to the quote from your link above.

yes, same arch, i386
