How to remaster without the detected hardware setting?

#1 Post by admin0 »

Hi,

I have been going to the chatrooms and also using the search feature here to get an answer. I would like to know if it is possible to customize puppy linux ( customize will involve remove packages that is not required, adding a few extra packages and changing the wallpaper) , and remastering it, but it should not save the current hardware environment it is running on, rather than it should detect for each computer it runs on.

Alternatively, if I install puppylinux inside a virtualbox and customize it, and remaster it, would it run perfectly if the ISO is booted on a dell server or another completely different hardware.

So looking for a way to customize ( i can add remove/packages) but ensure that it does not save my build environment but rather detect it and add support in runtime.

Please let me know.


Thanks,

hi admin0,

in the remaster process there's a point where it asks if you want to include drivers and setup, just answer no , and you'll have a modified pup that can run on any comp
