The ISO file is needed for the vmlinuz , etc ... and the other files that makes the remaster to boot from an optical drive .slavvo67 wrote: Can you remaster and create an iso without having to move files in or have a cd in the drive? For example, I boot from USB but wouldn't mind making the remaster into an .iso for later use, as well.
No matter where I boot from - USB , HDD partition or CD/DVD , I have the exact ISO file corresponding to running puppy - mounted from outside the File System ( or at most in the /tmp ) folder , and I indicate it as the source of those files required - that's all it takes .
This way I don't have to burn ISO's , or use phisical optical media.
