[solved]custom install image

flynn · 2010-09-16 23:56:09

I'm trying to create a custom Arch install image, but the wiki page describing the process is out of date and no longer works. Mounting the install iso works fine, but the next step described is extracting initrd.img, which does not exist. There is an archiso.img, which I assume is the new name for this file, but simply extracting as described in the wiki (by appending .gz to the name and running it through gunzip) does not work. Are there any updated instructions anywhere on how to create custom install images?

Try this http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arc … tributions

you can generate your own custom installation image with archiso

Thank you both, archiso did the trick. Now I just have to figure out why my aif procedure is failing, but that's a separate issue.
