################################################################### BRT Base Install Scripts http://www.developer.osdl.org/ogasawara/brt/base_install_mgr.pl http://www.developer.osdl.org/ogasawara/brt/base_install_client.pl ################################################################### The base_install_[mgr|client].pl scripts will hopefully make the process of getting a brt base install image up and running less painfull than having to follow the setp by step manual install document, base_install_howto.txt. As of now the scripts are semi-automated. They still need some manual input from the user to complete. Also, you only need to download base_install_mgr.pl as it should automatically download base_install_client.pl for you. Here are the following steps to run the install scripts: 1) First download the base_install_mgr.pl script (see above for download link) 2) su to root 3) chmod 744 base_install_mgr.pl 4) if you have a pre-configured kernel .config file and would prefer to use that .config file instead of having to manually configure your kernel in the base_install_client stage, copy the .config file you would like to use to /boot/brt.config. 5) execute base_install_mgr.pl ./base_install_mgr.pl 6) once that successfully finishes you'll have to execute the chroot command manually [*]: chroot /mnt/brt ./base_install_client.pl 7) Then cleanup your system up [*]: ./base_install_mgr.pl clean /mnt/brt 8) Reboot and cross your fingers reboot [*] This is assuming your brt base install directory is mounted at /mnt/brt. If it is located at /mnt/brt#, where '#' is a number, please pass that directory name in the command line. If you are not sure where your brt base install directory is, it is the directory which should contain the following files base_install_current.tar.bz2, portage_current.tar.bz2, base_install_client.pl, and some other things.
