| pankso@2 | 9 --------- |
| pankso@10 | 10 Sat is a tool in the spirit of all SliTaz tools, all commands and options are |
| pankso@10 | 11 accessible via: sat usage or help. To create a distro you first need to have |
| paul@17 | 12 some ARM packages. You can use custom cook, the one from the SliTaz mirror, put |
| pankso@10 | 13 them all in a packages/ directory and sat will install them. Then generate the |
| pankso@10 | 14 distro initramfs with your custom --options: |
| pankso@10 | 15 |
| pankso@10 | 16 # sat gen |
| pankso@10 | 17 |
| pankso@10 | 18 To boot the distro with Qemu you can run: |
| pankso@10 | 19 |
| pankso@10 | 20 # sat emu |
| pankso@10 | 21 |
| paul@17 | 22 Sat lets you clone the ARM cooking repo to let you debug and try official ARM |
| paul@17 | 23 packages. Sat will create a mirror directory in the working path and download |
| paul@17 | 24 all lists and packages. After a first clone it will only check the repo ID |
| paul@17 | 25 file and download any modified or new packages. |

| pankso@0 | 28 History |
| pankso@0 | 29 ------- |
| paul@17 | 30 While I was porting SliTaz to ARM I ended up by creating a lot of initramfs' |
| paul@17 | 31 to test the SliTaz boot, packages and so on. So I first wrote a small script, |
| paul@17 | 32 then improved it by just having to put include packages in a single directory |
| pankso@2 | 33 and all custom files in a rootfs directory. I also wanted virtual disk support |
| paul@17 | 34 so I can code under Qemu and save my work. This is how sat was born, one day |
| paul@17 | 35 we may use TazLito or have a new SliTaz Live tool, but for the time being 'sat' |
| paul@17 | 36 and the way it works fits all my needs to build custom distros and then boot |
| pankso@2 | 37 with qemu-system-arm. |
