http://askubuntu.com – I am trying to use live-build to create a remix of ubuntu 12.04. My goal is a bootable liveusb that can install the base ubuntu system plus my custom packages. I am using live-build with the following config options: lb config --mode ubuntu --distribution precise --hostname myubuntu --username myuser --archive-areas "main contrib" --cache-packages true --binary-images iso-hybrid --architecture amd64 --debian-installer live For some reason it fails with the following error: Building dependency tree... Done E: Unable to locate package ubuntu-desktop-generic E: Unable to locate package consol (HowTos)

Ubuntu live-build, help needed. 39 weeks 17 hours ago

Hi there.

Does anyone know how i can make the default Ubuntu 12.04 iso with the live-build scripts?

I think it isn't just:

Code: lb clean lb config lb build lb clean And i have a problem that /dev and the other things that should be mounted with the lb build script doesn't unmount.

Edit: This is the problem.

Im trying my hands at using live-build to build a iso of ubuntu and ive had success in the past using live-build for debian spin but never attempted with ubuntu.

You turn on your trusty old Linux box, and things are going well as you pass through the boot loader, until the disk check reveals that your hard drive partition table is corrupt, and you are unable to access your machine. You need a good rescue disk — and the best way to get one is to create your own.

Where to I find the scripts to bootstrap and create an normal Ubuntu installer/live iso image?

Or in other words, how are the (X)Ubuntu default installer/live images build?

Somehow my Ubuntu install can't find what I believe to be very common packages....

E: Unable to locate package php5-curl E: Unable to locate package php5-gd

I know this has something to do with my sources, however, I am not sure which source I need or which source these packages would be included in.

These are the commands I ran

sudo apt-get install php5-curl sudo apt-get install php5-gd
