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 |
pankso@10 | 12 some ARM packages. You can use custom cook the one from 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 |
pankso@10 | 22 Sata le you clone the ARM cooking repo to let you debug and try official ARM |
pankso@10 | 23 packages. Sat will creat a mirror directory in the working path, douwnlod all |
pankso@10 | 24 list and packages. After a first clone it will only check the repo ID file |
pankso@10 | 25 and download the modified or new packages. |

pankso@0 | 28 History |
pankso@0 | 29 ------- |
pankso@0 | 30 While I was porting SliTaz to ARM I ended by creating a lot of initramfs to |
pankso@2 | 31 test the SliTaz boot, packages and so on. So I first wrote a small script, |
pankso@2 | 32 then improved it so just have 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 |
pankso@2 | 34 so I can code under Qemu and save my work. This is how sat is born, one day |
pankso@2 | 35 we may use TazLito or have a new SliTaz Live tool, but at the time being 'sat' |
pankso@2 | 36 and the way it work feet all my needs to buils custom distro and boot then |
pankso@2 | 37 with qemu-system-arm. |
