    3.44 +<h3>Tazlito - SliTaz Live Tool</h3>
    3.45 +<p>
    3.46 +Tazlito is a tool to help generate and configure SliTaz LiveCD ISO images.
    3.47 +You can create a custom distro in two commands from a list of packages and a
    3.48 +flavor file, extract an existing ISO image to hack it, create new initramfs 
    3.49 +and/or a new ISO. Most commands must be run by root, except the stats and the
    3.50 +configuration file manipulation. Like other SliTaz tiny utils, you can simply
    3.51 +type <code>tazlito usage</code> in a terminal to get a list of all 
    3.52 +commands with a short description in English.
    3.53 +</p>
    3.54 +
    3.55 +<a name="get-flavor"></a>
    3.56 +<h3>Get a flavor</h3>
    3.57 +<p>
    3.58 +SliTaz LiveCD can easily be rebuilt using Tazlito flavor support. A special 
    3.59 +LiveCD flavor can be built from the LiveCD/RAM itself or from an installed
    3.60 +system. If you want to rebuild SliTaz from the LiveCD you need at least 256 Mb
    3.61 +of RAM and we recommend that you store the file on persistent media (USB key, HD,
    3.62 +etc). To start you need to get a flavor file from a SliTaz mirror, open a Xterm,
    3.63 +become root administrator and get the default core system:
    3.64 +</p>
    3.65 +<pre>
    3.66 + # tazlito get-flavor core
    3.67 +</pre>
    3.68 +
    3.69 +<a name="gen-distro"></a>
    3.70 +<h3>Generate your own distro</h3>
    3.71 +<p>
    3.72 +The command <code>get-flavor</code> will download the core flavor, giving you a description
    3.73 +and a list of packages in the current directory with some additional files in 
    3.74 +/home/slitaz/distro/addfiles (JWM menu, wallpapers, hacker files). From now on 
    3.75 +you can add or remove packages in the list (<code>distro-packages.list</code>), 
    3.76 +modify configuration files (<code>tazlito.conf</code>) and optionally modify 
    3.77 +additional files. Then simply generate a LiveCD ISO image:
    3.78 +</p>
    3.79 +<pre>
    3.80 + # tazlito gen-distro
    3.81 +</pre>
    3.82 +<p>
    3.83 +The LiveCD ISO image, root filesystem (rootfs) and the content of the CD 
    3.84 +(rootcd) are in /home/slitaz/distro.  All repacked or downloaded packages are
    3.85 +stored by default in /home/slitaz/packages. If you want to chroot in the
    3.86 +rootfs to preconfigure the system, add more files in the rootcd directory or 
    3.87 +add users, you just have to rebuild initramfs and the ISO image to generate 
    3.88 +your new LiveCD:
    3.89 +</p>
    3.90 +<pre>
    3.91 + # tazlito gen-initiso
    3.92 +</pre>
    3.93 +
    3.94 +<h4>Burn ISO and gen a flavor file</h4>
    3.95 +<p>
    3.96 +Tazlito can also burn the LiveCD and/or create a flavor file to keep your 
    3.97 +modifications:
    3.98 +</p>
    3.99 +<pre>
   3.100 + # tazlito burn-iso
   3.101 + # tazlito gen-flavor

   11.50 +<h3>Boot from a cdrom</h3>
   11.51 +<p>
   11.52 +To boot SliTaz from a cdrom, just burn the ISO image onto a blank disc, then
   11.53 +reboot your computer with the disc in your cdrom drive. The first splash image
   11.54 +is powered by isolinux bootloader, you can then just press <code>ENTER</code>
   11.55 +with or without any options to start system initialisation. Note that pressing
   11.56 +<code>F1</code> will display help and information. SliTaz runs all
   11.57 +in memory and will not damage the host installed system. When the boot
   11.58 +process is finished, you can login without any password as user 
   11.59 +<code>hacker</code>. To become root administrator, you can use the command 
   11.60 +<code>su</code> with the password <code>root</code> in a XTerm window or 
   11.61 +the Linux console.
   11.62 +</p>
   11.63 +<p>
   11.64 +The desktop is powered by JWM (Joe's Window Manager), you can get the menu by
   11.65 +clicking on the screen with one of the mouse buttons. Applications are
   11.66 +classified by category and are available in English. Menu, theme and wallpaper 
   11.67 +can all be changed to your needs/preferences by editing one single file, 
   11.68 +personal settings and data can be stored on USB media (Flash key, SD card, etc).
   11.69 +</p>
   11.70 +
   11.71 +<a name="home"></a>
   11.72 +<h3>Option : home=usb</h3>
   11.73 +<p>
   11.74 +To store your data permanently (bookmarks, downloads, Firefox Add-ons, etc),
   11.75 +you need USB media with a partition formatted in <code>ext3</code> and it must
   11.76 +specify <code>home=usb</code> for <code>sda1</code> (most cases) or
   11.77 +<code>home=devname</code> at boot time. Note that you can also specify the
   11.78 +device using the partition UUID or label by using <code>home=*</code>. Example:
   11.79 +</p>
   11.80 +<pre>
   11.81 + slitaz home=sda1
   11.82 +</pre>
   11.83 +<h4>Prepare USB media</h4>
   11.84 +<p>
   11.85 +All USB media can formatted in the native Linux <code>ext3</code> filesystem.
   11.86 +Ext3 is a journalized, stable filesystem, it allows you to keep permissions
   11.87 +on all files and is much more secure than the default Windows FAT32 filesystem.
   11.88 +To format USB media you have a few options: the command line with
   11.89 +<code>mkfs.ext3</code>, the <code>tazusb</code> utility or graphically with Gparted.
   11.90 +To get a full list of available partitions including the USB drive you can use the command
   11.91 +<code>fdisk -l</code> and then format. Example:
   11.92 +</p>
   11.93 +<pre>
   11.94 + # fdisk -l
   11.95 + # tazusb format /dev/sda1
   11.96 +</pre>
   11.97 +
   11.98 +<a name="i18n"></a>
   11.99 +<h3>Options : lang=XX and kmap=XX</h3>
  11.100 +<p>
  11.101 +When you use the LiveCD you have two options to directly configure the system 
  11.102 +language and keyboard mapping, these options can be set by simply navigating to
  11.103 +your country code and reloading the bootloader configuration with <code>ENTER</code>. 
  11.104 +To skip the language and keyboard configuration you can simply type options on the command
  11.105 +line, for English/UK:
  11.106 +</p>
  11.107 +<pre>
  11.108 + slitaz lang=en kmap=en
  11.109 +</pre>
  11.110 +
  11.111 +<a name="config"></a>
  11.112 +<h3>Option : config=&lt;device&gt;,&lt;path&gt;</h3>
  11.113 +<p>
  11.114 +The <code>config=</code> option lets you execute a script at SliTaz boot time,
  11.115 +the script can be located on external media or a HD partition. For example, the
  11.116 +script can mount an ISO image on <code>/usr</code> to save memory and boot the
  11.117 +LiveCD on computers with only 32 Mb of RAM. An example with a script named 
  11.118 +<code>slitaz.sh</code> located on the first disk and partition: 
  11.119 +</p>
  11.120 +<pre>
  11.121 + slitaz config=/dev/hda1,slitaz.sh
  11.122 +</pre>
  11.123 +
  11.124 +<a name="modprobe"></a>
  11.125 +<h3>Option : modprobe=modules</h3>
  11.126 +<p>
  11.127 +To load Kernel modules at boot time use the following example:
  11.128 +</p>
  11.129 +<pre>
  11.130 + slitaz modprobe=module1,module2
  11.131 +</pre>
  11.132 +
  11.133 +<a name="laptop"></a>
  11.134 +<h3>Option : laptop</h3>
  11.135 +<p>
  11.136 +The option <code>laptop</code> will automatically load ac and battery Kernel 
  11.137 +modules, useful for laptop computers:
  11.138 +</p>
  11.139 +<pre>
  11.140 + slitaz laptop
  11.141 +</pre>

   12.36 +<h3>Tazusb - Live USB Tool</h3>
   12.37 +<p>
   12.38 +Tazusb is a tool that can create bootable usb media with a few simple commands.
   12.39 +It can also compress and backup the entire current filesystem to the media, 
   12.40 +thus preserving all modifications for future use. Type <code>tazusb usage</code>
   12.41 +for a full list of commands or read 
   12.42 +<a href="http://www.slitaz.org/en/doc/manuals/tazusb.en.html">TazUSB manual</a>.
   12.43 +</p>
   12.44 +<h4>Generate your own LiveUSB media</h4>
   12.45 +<p>
   12.46 +To generate your own LiveUSB media, first you need to login as root with
   12.47 +<code>su</code> and locate your usb storage device using the command:
   12.48 +</p>
   12.49 +<pre># fdisk -l     # normally /dev/sda1
   12.50 +</pre>
   12.51 +<p>
   12.52 +Then format and label your device 
   12.53 +(Warning: this will erase all data, make sure you specify the right device):
   12.54 +</p>
   12.55 +<pre># tazusb format /dev/sda1 
   12.56 +</pre>
   12.57 +<p>
   12.58 +And finally generate LiveUSB media device:
   12.59 +</p>
   12.60 +<pre># tazusb gen-liveusb /dev/sda1
   12.61 +</pre>
   12.62 +<p>
   12.63 +And that's all you need to do, providing your computer bios supports it, you 
   12.64 +can now boot Slitaz from usb media.
   12.65 +</p>
   12.66 +<h4>Maintaining system settings</h4>
   12.67 +<p>When you finish your LiveUSB session, make sure you maintain your installed 
   12.68 +packages, system settings etc by backing up the entire current filesystem with:
   12.69 +</p>
   12.70 +<pre># tazusb writefs gzip
   12.71 +</pre>
   12.72 +<p>
   12.73 +This effectively compresses and backs up everything to the rootfs.gz to be 
   12.74 +loaded the next time you boot.
   12.75 +</p>
   12.76 +<h4>Tazusb Manual</h4>
   12.77 +<p>
   12.78 +The official Tazusb manual can be found in SliTaz 
   12.79 +<a href="http://www.slitaz.org/en/doc/manuals/tazusb.en.html">Web site documenation</a>, 
   12.80 +it contains a lot more useful information. The manual is also installed on the
   12.81 +core LiveCD and avalaible trow the documentation menu.

   13.48 +<h3>Tazpkg - Package manager</h3>
   13.49 +<p>
   13.50 +SliTaz provides a tiny package manager which can easily install more software
   13.51 +on the system. Tazpkg is a lightweight package manager for <code>.tazpkg</code>
   13.52 +files, completely written in Shell script. It works well with Busybox ash shell and
   13.53 +bash. Tazpkg lets you list, install, remove, download, extract, pack, search,
   13.54 +or get information about available or installed packages. You can also repack 
   13.55 +an installed package and automatically upgrade all installed packages. On SliTaz
   13.56 +you can type <code>tazpkg usage</code> in a terminal to get a list of all the
   13.57 +commands with a short description in English.
   13.58 +</p>
   13.59 +
   13.60 +<a name="list"></a>
   13.61 +<h3>List of packages</h3>
   13.62 +<p>
   13.63 +Tazpkg lets you list all installed packages, installed 
   13.64 +packages by category or it can display the list of available packages on the mirror.
   13.65 +To display a single list of all installed packages on the system just type:
   13.66 +</p>
   13.67 +<pre>
   13.68 + $ tazpkg list
   13.69 +</pre>
   13.70 +<p>
   13.71 +To display all categories or packages sorted by category, you must specifiy
   13.72 +<code>cat</code> or <code>category</code>.
   13.73 + Examples:
   13.74 +</p>
   13.75 +<pre>
   13.76 + $ tazpkg list cat
   13.77 + $ tazpkg list base-system
   13.78 +</pre>
   13.79 +<p>
   13.80 +Tazpkg can also generate a nice  xHTML list (default: <code>installed-packages.html</code>) in the local directory of all installed packages on the system:
   13.81 +</p>
   13.82 +<pre>
   13.83 +$ tazpkg xhtml-list
   13.84 +</pre>
   13.85 +<p>
   13.86 +To get a single list of all available packages on the mirror you can use
   13.87 +the command <code>list-mirror</code>, you can then examine the list in your favorite editor
   13.88 +or use the Web site interface. 
   13.89 +</p>
   13.90 +
   13.91 +<a name="install"></a>
   13.92 +<h3>Install packages</h3>
   13.93 +<p>
   13.94 +To install some new applications such as The Gimp, AbiWord, ePDFView, Perl or 
   13.95 +Python, you first need to recharge the list of available packages on the 
   13.96 +mirror and then install. If the package dependencies are not installed 
   13.97 +Tazpkg will install them for you. For example, the installation of Gparted a 
   13.98 +GTK+ partition editor using GNU parted:
   13.99 +</p>
  13.100 +<pre>
  13.101 + # tazpkg recharge
  13.102 + # tazpkg get-install gparted
  13.103 +</pre>
  13.104 +
  13.105 +<a name="upgrade"></a>
  13.106 +<h3>Upgrade installed packages</h3>
  13.107 +<p>
  13.108 +To keep your system up-to-date and secure after recharging the packages list, 
  13.109 +you can automatically install all new versions and security updates from the 
  13.110 +mirror with the command:
  13.111 +</p>
  13.112 +<pre>
  13.113 + # tazpkg upgrade
  13.114 +</pre>
  13.115 +
  13.116 +<a name="tazwok"></a>
  13.117 +<h3>Tazwok &amp; the wok</h3>
  13.118 +<p>
  13.119 +All SliTaz packages are built with a tool named Tazwok and a receipt found
  13.120 +in the wok. The receipt provides all the necessary information to build a suitable
  13.121 +package for Tazpkg, variables to give us the package name, source tarball format, 
  13.122 +download URL, etc. With a receipt then the <code>compile_rules</code> function has got all
  13.123 +the necessary commands to configure, make and install the package in a specific directory.
  13.124 +After the compilation, Tazwok will execute the function <code>genpkg_rules</code>
  13.125 +to pick up only the needed/wanted files and generate a pkg.tazpkg (cpio archive).
  13.126 +On SliTaz you will find all installed package receipts in the directory
  13.127 +<code>/var/lib/tazpkg/installed</code>, feel free to examine them or even use one as an
  13.128 +example.
  13.129 +</p>
  13.130 +<p>
  13.131 +Tazwok will search by default for a wok in <code>/home/slitaz/wok</code> and
  13.132 +put generated packages in <code>/home/slitaz/packages</code>, these paths are
  13.133 +set by a Tazwok configuration file which can be located in
  13.134 +<code>/etc/tazwok.conf</code> or in the current directory, this is useful if you 
  13.135 +want to work with multiple woks. Now, if the <code>slitaz-toolchain</code> is 
  13.136 +installed, you can start to create and build a package which doesn't need much 
  13.137 +dependencies. Small example:
  13.138 +</p>
  13.139 +<pre>
  13.140 + # tazwok new-tree pkgname --interactive
  13.141 +</pre>
  13.142 +<p>
  13.143 +When a new package tree and receipt has been created in the wok, you can edit the
  13.144 +receipt with your favorite editor (Geany provides nicely colored code), modify
  13.145 +the rules functions, add dependencies to the <code>DEPENDS</code> variable 
  13.146 +if needed and try a first cook:
  13.147 +</p>
  13.148 +<pre>
  13.149 + # tazwok cook pkgname
  13.150 +</pre>
  13.151 +<p>
  13.152 +Note that you can now browse the generated files, modify the cooking receipt again or
  13.153 +just rebuild the package with <code>tazwok genpkg</code>. When you are happy with
  13.154 +your work you can install the package with <code>tazpkg install</code> and 
  13.155 +test the application or library.
  13.156 +</p>

   14.46 +<h3>Network configuration</h3>
   14.47 +<p>
   14.48 +By default SliTaz starts a DHCP client (udhcpc) on eth0 at boot time. If your
   14.49 +network card has been identified as an <code>eth0</code> interface and you use
   14.50 +a router, your connection should already be working. DHCP is dynamically
   14.51 +configured, on each boot the client asks for a new IP address from 
   14.52 +the DHCP server, which is integrated into the router, or on another computer.
   14.53 +If you need a static IP, you can directly edit config files or use the GUI
   14.54 +<code>netbox</code> available from JWM menu --&gt; System tools. In a terminal
   14.55 +or a Linux console, you can list all available network interfaces with the 
   14.56 +command <code>ifconfig</code> followed by the <code>-a</code> option:
   14.57 +</p>
   14.58 +<pre>
   14.59 + $ ifconfig -a
   14.60 +</pre>
   14.61 +<p>
   14.62 +The system wide network configuration file is <code>/etc/network.conf</code>,
   14.63 +it can be graphically configured with <code>netbox</code> or directly edited by
   14.64 +the root administrator.
   14.65 +</p>
   14.66 +<h4>Install network card driver</h4>
   14.67 +<p>
   14.68 +In case you need a network card driver and dont know the driver name, you can
   14.69 +use the command <code>lspci</code> to find your card and then <code>modprobe</code>
   14.70 +to load a module. In Live mode you can use the SliTaz boot option 
   14.71 +<code>modprobe=modules</code> to automatically load Kernel modules. To get a 
   14.72 +list of all available network card drivers, display PCI eth cards and load a
   14.73 +module:
   14.74 +</p>
   14.75 +<pre>
   14.76 + # modprobe -l | grep drivers/net
   14.77 + # lspci | grep [Ee]th
   14.78 + # modprobe -v module_name
   14.79 +</pre>
   14.80 +<p>
   14.81 +On an installed system you just need to add the module_name to the variable 
   14.82 +<code>LOAD_MODULES </code> in <code>/etc/rcS.conf</code> to load your module 
   14.83 +on each boot.
   14.84 +</p>
   14.85 +
   14.86 +<a name="devices"></a>
   14.87 +<h3>Devices and disks access</h3>
   14.88 +<p>
   14.89 +With Linux your disks and USB media are seen as devices. To access them you must
   14.90 +first mount a device on a mount point (directory). On SliTaz you can graphically
   14.91 +mount devices using <code>mountbox</code> or use the command line. To mount the
   14.92 +first disk of a local hard disk on <code>/mnt/disk</code>:
   14.93 +</p>
   14.94 +<pre>
   14.95 + # mkdir -p /mnt/disk
   14.96 + # mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/disk
   14.97 +</pre>
   14.98 +<p>
   14.99 +To mount a cdrom or an USB media you should use mount points located in 
  14.100 +<code>/media</code>. Note that for a cdrom, you just have to specify
  14.101 +the device path and for a flash key the mount point already exists:
  14.102 +</p>
  14.103 +<pre>
  14.104 + # mount /dev/cdrom
  14.105 + # mount /dev/sda1 /media/flash
  14.106 +</pre>
  14.107 +<h4>ntfs filesystem</h4>
  14.108 +<p> 
  14.109 +If you need read/write access to Windows ntfs filesystems you must install a
  14.110 +few additional packages from the mirror. The <code>ntfs-3g</code> driver
  14.111 +provides stable access to ntfs partitions and the <code>ntfsprogs</code> provides
  14.112 +manipulation tools dependent on Fuse. Note that you can format, move or resize
  14.113 +ntfs partitions graphically with Gparted.
  14.114 +</p>
  14.115 +
  14.116 +<a name="users-admin"></a>
  14.117 +<h3>Users, groups and passwords</h3>
  14.118 +<p>
  14.119 +To manage users and groups on your SliTaz system you must use the command line,
  14.120 +but file permissions can be changed graphically using the emelFM2 file manager. To
  14.121 +add or remove users and groups you must be root. Root can also change all
  14.122 +user passwords and a single user can only change his/her own password. To add 
  14.123 +or remove a user named linux:
  14.124 +</p>
  14.125 +<pre> # adduser linux
  14.126 + # deluser linux
  14.127 +</pre>
  14.128 +<p>
  14.129 +To add or remove a group you must use <code>addgroup</code> or 
  14.130 +<code>delgroup</code>. To change the current user password or change the
  14.131 +password of a specific user, you must use the command <code>passwd</code>:
  14.132 +</p>
  14.133 +<pre> $ passwd
  14.134 + # passwd username
  14.135 +</pre>
  14.136 +
  14.137 +<a name="locale"></a>
  14.138 +<h3>Language and keyboard layout</h3>
  14.139 +<p>
  14.140 +SliTaz saves the configuration of the default locale in <code>/etc/locale.conf</code> 
  14.141 +which is read by <code>/etc/profile</code> on each login and the keyboard 
  14.142 +setting is stored in <code>/etc/kmap.conf</code>. These two files can be
  14.143 +edited with your favorite editor or configured respectively with
  14.144 +<code>tazlocale</code> and <code>tazkmap</code>. You can modify the settings
  14.145 +you chose on the first boot by typing as root administrator:
  14.146 +</p>
  14.147 +<pre>
  14.148 + # tazlocale
  14.149 + Or:
  14.150 + # tazkmap
  14.151 +</pre>
  14.152 +<p>
  14.153 +To check all available locales or your current configuration you can use the
  14.154 +command <code>locale</code> as a single user or root (C for English):
  14.155 +</p>
  14.156 +<pre> $ locale -a
  14.157 + $ locale
  14.158 +</pre>
  14.159 +<a name="bash"></a>
  14.160 +<h3>Bash Shell</h3>
  14.161 +<p>
  14.162 +On SliTaz you have the ash and sh shell with a link to Ash, this shell is 
  14.163 +provided by Busybox. If you wish to use the Bash (Bourne Again SHell), first 
  14.164 +as <code>su</code> install bash, copy the <code>.profile</code> found in your 
  14.165 +home directory and rename it <code>.bashrc</code>, then edit the 
  14.166 +<code>/etc/passwd</code> file with your favorite text editor and change your 
  14.167 +shell to :/bin/bash
  14.168 +</p>
  14.169 +<pre>
  14.170 + # tazpkg get-install bash
  14.171 + # cp /home/hacker/.profile home/hacker/.bashrc
  14.172 + # Note root user: cp /home/hacker/.profile ~/.bashrc
  14.173 + # nano /etc/passwd   # :/bin/bash
  14.174 +</pre>
  14.175 +<p>
  14.176 +The next time you login bash will be your default shell, you can confirm this 
  14.177 +by typing <code>env</code> in the command line.
  14.178 +</p>
  14.179 +
  14.180 +<a name="time"></a>
  14.181 +<h3>System Time</h3>
  14.182 +<p>
  14.183 +To know the current system time, you can simply type <code>date</code>. On 
  14.184 +SliTaz, the timezone configuration file is saved in <code>/etc/TZ</code>, you 
  14.185 +can edit with your favorite text editor or simply <code>echo</code> the changes.
  14.186 +Here's an example using the timezone Europe/London:
  14.187 +</p>
  14.188 +<pre># echo "Europe/London" > /etc/TZ
  14.189 +</pre>
  14.190 +<h4>Rdate</h4>
  14.191 +<p>
  14.192 +To syncronize the system clock with a network time server, you can as the 
  14.193 +<code>root</code> administrator use the <code>rdate -s</code> command:
  14.194 +</p>
  14.195 +<pre>
  14.196 + # rdate -s tick.grayware.com
  14.197 +</pre>
  14.198 +<p>
  14.199 +To display the time on the remote server, use the <code>rdate -p</code> command.
  14.200 +</p>
  14.201 +<pre>
  14.202 + $ rdate -p tick.grayware.com
  14.203 +</pre>
  14.204 +<h4>Hwclock</h4>
  14.205 +<p>
  14.206 +Hwclock allows you to syncronize the time of your hardware clock to the system
  14.207 +clock or vice versa.
  14.208 +</p>
  14.209 +<p>
  14.210 +Syncronize the system clock to the hardware clock ( --utc = universal time, 
  14.211 +-l = local time):
  14.212 +</p>
  14.213 +<pre>
  14.214 + # hwclock -w --utc
  14.215 +</pre>
  14.216 +<p>
  14.217 +Syncronize the hardware clock to the system clock:
  14.218 +</p>
  14.219 +<pre>
  14.220 + # hwclock -s --utc
  14.221 +</pre>

   16.45 +<h3>X11 - X Window System</h3>
   16.46 +<p>
   16.47 +The X Window System or X11 provides a window manager running on
   16.48 +top of a X server. SliTaz uses by default the lightweight X server called
   16.49 +<code>Xvesa</code> from the Xorg project (<a href="http://www.x.org/">www.x.org</a>).
   16.50 +Xvesa can be started with the Slim login manager or directly from a Linux console
   16.51 +with the command <code>startx</code>, but for this you must first disable the 
   16.52 +Login Manager. To reconfigure your X session you can use <code>tazx</code>
   16.53 +as root or as the current user if you start X from the command line.
   16.54 +</p>
   16.55 +
   16.56 +<a name="slim"></a>
   16.57 +<h3>Slim - Simple Login Manager</h3>
   16.58 +<p>
   16.59 +Slim is a lightweight session manager that is very easy to configure and is 
   16.60 +customizable using system themes. The configuration file is found in 
   16.61 +<code>/etc/slim.conf</code>, it defines window managers available via the 
   16.62 +<code>F1</code> key, the default user or theme and the X window system parameters.
   16.63 +Slim offers special users commands like <code>console</code> to help manage 
   16.64 +the session.
   16.65 +</p>
   16.66 +<p>
   16.67 +In LiveCD mode you can disable Slim with the boot option <code>screen=text</code>.
   16.68 +On an installed system you can remove the package or delete slim from the 
   16.69 +<code>RUN_DAEMONS</code> variable in <code>/etc/rcS.conf</code>.
   16.70 +</p>
   16.71 +<p>
   16.72 +More details and themes can be found on the 
   16.73 +<a href="http://slim.berlios.de">website.</a>

   16.77 +<h3>JWM - Window manager</h3>
   16.78 +<p>
   16.79 +JWM (Joe's Window Manger) is a lightweight Window Manager, easy to use, fast,
   16.80 +stable and insanely configurable. The menu and theme can all be changed from a 
   16.81 +single configuration file found in your home directory: <code>~/.jwmrc</code>,
   16.82 +the file uses XML syntax and the code is nicely colored if you use Geany to 
   16.83 +edit it. To add an entry in the menu you can use the following example:
   16.84 +</p>
   16.85 +<pre class="script">
   16.86 + &lt;Program icon="kino.png" label="Kino (Video Editor)"&gt;kino&lt;/Program&gt;
   16.87 +</pre>
   16.88 +<p>
   16.89 +The <a href="http://www.joewing.net/programs/jwm/config.shtml">JWM Web site</a> 
   16.90 +has got more information on how to configure the application to your needs 
   16.91 +and preferences.
   16.92 +</p>
   16.93 +
   16.94 +<a name="enlightenment"></a>
   16.95 +<h3>Enlightenment (e17)</h3>
   16.96 +<p>
   16.97 +Enlightenment aka e17 is a lightweight and fast desktop environment that can be
   16.98 +configured graphically. To install e17:
   16.99 +</p>
  16.100 +<pre> # tazpkg get-install enlightenment
  16.101 +</pre>
  16.102 +<p>
  16.103 +Logout your current X session, type <code>F1</code> at Slim login and choose
  16.104 +<code>e17</code> to start Enlightenment.
  16.105 +</p>
  16.106 +
  16.107 +<a name="openbox"></a>
  16.108 +<h3>Openbox</h3>
  16.109 +<p>
  16.110 +Openbox is a lightweight window manager than can be configured using the obconf 
  16.111 +utility. To install openbox:
  16.112 +</p>
  16.113 +<pre># tazpkg get-install openbox
  16.114 +# tazpkg get-install obconf
  16.115 +</pre>
  16.116 +<p>
  16.117 +Logout your current X session, type <code>F1</code> at Slim login and choose
  16.118 +<code>openbox</code> to start Openbox. To make Openbox your default Window
  16.119 +Manager just type: <code>tazx openbox</code>.
  16.120 +</p>
  16.121 +<p>
  16.122 +Note: you can also use the configuration file <code>menu.xml</code> found 
  16.123 +in <code>/etc/xdg/openbox</code> to edit menu items. Here's an example using 
  16.124 +Htop:
  16.125 +</p>
  16.126 +<pre class="script">
  16.127 +&lt;item label="Htop"&gt;
  16.128 +  &lt;action name="Execute"&gt;&lt;command&gt;xterm -e htop&lt;/command&gt;&lt;/action&gt;
  16.129 +&lt;/item&gt;
  16.130 +</pre>
  16.131 +<p>

   18.35 +<h2>Name</h2>
   18.36 +<p>
   18.37 +TazUSB - Slitaz LiveUSB utility
   18.38 +</p>
   18.39 +
   18.40 +<h2>SYNTAX</h2>
   18.41 +<pre>
   18.42 +tazusb [command] [compression|device]
   18.43 +</pre>
   18.44 +
   18.45 +<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
   18.46 +<p>
   18.47 +TazUSB is a utility designed for installing Slitaz to a USB drive. Unlike a hard drive install, the filesystem is kept in a compressed "rootfs.gz". The filesystem is loaded entirely into memory upon boot. This should increase responsiveness, protect the filesystem against accidental corruption and reduce read/writes to the USB drive. Once setup, this utility can also rewrite the root filesystem with any changes you have made since booting up, giving the effective benefits of a hard drive install.
   18.48 +</p>
   18.49 +<p>
   18.50 +TazUSB supports both FAT32/EXT3 formatted drives using SYSLINUX and EXTLINUX respectively. "/home" is mounted on boot using the UUID of your particular flash drive. Unlike a device name, the UUID has the benefit of never changing from machine to machine.  
   18.51 +</p>
   18.52 +
   18.53 +<h2>COMMANDS</h2>
   18.54 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">usage</font></h3>
   18.55 +<p>
   18.56 +The command 'usage' will display a short summary of all avalaible commands.
   18.57 +</p>
   18.58 +<pre>
   18.59 + # tazusb usage
   18.60 +</pre>
   18.61 +
   18.62 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">writefs</font></h3>
   18.63 +<p>
   18.64 +The command 'writefs' will take the current memory resident filesystem and create a "rootfs.gz". If your flash drive is mounted as /home (as it should be), the new filesystem will be copied to the drive for you, otherwise it is left on the root of the drive. Your previous filesystem will be renamed to "previous.gz" and can be accessed on bootup by typing "previous" at the "boot:" prompt. All previous filesystems are renamed to rootfs.gz.unixtimestamp. These are not removed automaticaly, so you should periodically delete these to keep disk usage down.
   18.65 +</p>
   18.66 +<p>
   18.67 +Filesystem compression is supported in the form of lzma, gzip or none. Using no compression is very quick (under 5 seconds) and useful if you are experimenting with a lot of changes. By comparison, using lzma or gzip takes a few minutes but will dramatically reduce file size. This is recommended when commiting permanent changes to the filesystem.

   18.77 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">format</font></h3>
   18.78 +<p>
   18.79 +The command 'format' is used for formatting a device for use as a LiveUSB device. Currently, it only supports formatting as EXT3.
   18.80 +</p>
   18.81 +<pre>
   18.82 + # tazusb format /dev/name
   18.83 +</pre>
   18.84 +Example:
   18.85 +<pre>
   18.86 + # tazusb format /dev/sda1
   18.87 +</pre>
   18.88 +
   18.89 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">gen-liveusb</font></h3>
   18.90 +<p>
   18.91 +"gen-liveusb" will install a fresh MBR, set your partition as bootable and install syslinux/extlinux depending on the detected filesystem. It will then copy the kernel and filesystem from the CDROM drive, and place this on the target USB drive. This will leave you with a bootable USB copy of Slitaz. 
   18.92 +</p>

   26.50 +<h3><font color="#6c0023"></font>Overview</h3>
   26.51 +<p>
   26.52 +SliTaz GNU/Linux is a free, open source community project. Version 1.0 was 
   26.53 +released on March 22 2008 after two years of hard work. Slitaz comprises of 448 
   26.54 +software packages easily installed via the "Tazpkg" package manager. The LiveCD
   26.55 +can be fully configured to taste, to easily create a custom distribution 
   26.56 +specificically for tasks such as multimedia, graphics or development. 
   26.57 +</p>
   26.58 +<p>
   26.59 +Slitaz can also be installed to your hard drive, or used with USB media - with
   26.60 +"TazUSB" you are only a few simple commands away from a fully formatted and 
   26.61 +configured USB device, ready to boot.
   26.62 +</p>
   26.63 +<p>
   26.64 +Technical support is provided to users via the mailing list and the official
   26.65 +forum. The "Slitaz Handbook" is an instructive manual on how to use and finely
   26.66 +configure the system. Slitaz can be updated easily via the graphic installer or
   26.67 +by using the simple fast text installer. 
   26.68 +</p>
   26.69 +
   26.70 +<a name="hardware"></a>
   26.71 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">Supported Hardware</font></h3>
   26.72 +<p>
   26.73 +SliTaz GNU/Linux supports all machines based on i486 or x86 Intel compatible
   26.74 +processors. A minimum 128MB of memory is recommended to use the main LiveCD. 
   26.75 +64MB is needed for the "slitaz-loram" flavor and 16MB for the 
   26.76 +"slitaz-loram-cdrom" flavor.
   26.77 +</p>
   26.78 +<p>
   26.79 +With the slitaz-loram flavour, the system is less responsive, but allows you to
   26.80 +graphically install SliTaz on very old machines. Once installed, Slitaz works
   26.81 +well with a minimum of 16MB memory, but forget about using Firefox to surf the 
   26.82 +web - you'll have to use the text based 'links' for example.  
   26.83 +</p>
   26.84 +<p>
   26.85 +Most network and sound card drivers are supported in the Kernel. Presently, 
   26.86 +power management is enabled by default with ACPI and support for laptops is 
   26.87 +enabled with the "ac" and "battery" modules.
   26.88 +</p>
   26.89 +
   26.90 +<a name="livecd"></a>
   26.91 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">LiveCD Flavors</font></h3>
   26.92 +<p>
   26.93 +SliTaz GNU/Linux is distributed as a bootable LiveCD allowing you to
   26.94 +graphically install to the hard drive and retain the use of your previous 
   26.95 +system including all settings, applications, documents etc. 
   26.96 +</p>
   26.97 +<p>
   26.98 +The project distributes an ISO image called "core", which is the body of the 
   26.99 +system, providing a selection of multi-use packages for surfing the web, 
  26.100 +listening to music, audio editing, image manipulation, developing (including 
  26.101 +PHP/SQL), editing ISOs or burning to optical media. It's just one click in the 
  26.102 +application menu to find software installed by category.
  26.103 +</p>
  26.104 +<p>
  26.105 +The "core" LiveCD can also be customised and rebuilt both graphically or from
  26.106 +the command line. Install your own custom set of packages, or simply use one
  26.107 +of the preset flavors on the mirror. Then simply generate your distribution 
  26.108 +with the "Tazlito" tool.
  26.109 +</p>
  26.110 +
  26.111 +<a name="install"></a>
  26.112 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">Installation</font></h3>
  26.113 +<p>
  26.114 +The installation is fully automated and can be done graphically or in text
  26.115 +mode. The prerequisite material and other useful information can be found in the 
  26.116 +Manual and Handbook. 
  26.117 +</p>
  26.118 +<p>
  26.119 +If you want to partition a disk before installation, you can quickly use 
  26.120 +Gparted in LiveCD mode or use a flavor containing the partitioning tool. At 
  26.121 +the end of the installation it is possible to setup the "GRUB" bootloader which
  26.122 +is capable of starting almost all operating systems. This allows SliTaz to 
  26.123 +co-exist with a previously installed operating system, such as Windows.
  26.124 +</p>
  26.125 +
  26.126 +<a name="kernel"></a>
  26.127 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">Linux Kernel</font></h3>
  26.128 +<p>
  26.129 +Slitaz GNU/Linux is distributed with the Linux Kernel 2.6.24.2, patched for
  26.130 +LZMA compression support and display correction for the virtual console. The
  26.131 +support for IDE and SCSI is integrated, as are the filesystems ext2 and ext3.
  26.132 +</p>
  26.133 +<p>
  26.134 +Most network cards are supported either directly or as loadable modules with
  26.135 +'modprobe'. Video capture, if needed, requires the ieee1394, raw1394 and
  26.136 +oci1394 modules installed. The management of the sound card drivers is obtained
  26.137 +with 'soundconf'.
  26.138 +</p>
  26.139 +<p>
  26.140 +The configuration of startup modules is located in /etc/rcS.conf. In 
  26.141 +LiveCD/LiveUSB mode you can use 'modprobe=mod1, mod2' to load various modules 
  26.142 +at boot time.
  26.143 +</p>
  26.144 +<p>
  26.145 +The Linux Kernel configuration of SliTaz is available in the compressed file
  26.146 +/proc/config.gz and also in the Mercurial repositories.
  26.147 +</p>
  26.148 +
  26.149 +<a name="packages"></a>
  26.150 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">Software Packages</font></h3>
  26.151 +<p>
  26.152 +The management of software packages is done with the custom package manager 
  26.153 +"Tazpkg". It's simple, fast, stable and offers an interactive mode. Among the 
  26.154 +448 packages available you will find anything you need to transform your 
  26.155 +machine to a complete graphical desktop (e17), a graphics studio with The Gimp
  26.156 +or Inkscape, or to a video editor with Kino. You can experience the world wide
  26.157 +web with instant messaging, VOIP, email and of course through a web browser. 
  26.158 +</p>
  26.159 +<p>
  26.160 +Slitaz is also designed to function as a powerful web server, using the stable
  26.161 +LightTPD/PHP package (installed by default), supporting CGI, Perl and Python.
  26.162 +</p>
  26.163 +<p>
  26.164 +Rsync is used for incremental backup and iptables functions as the firewall. 
  26.165 +SliTaz can of course also provide a complete development environment with the 
  26.166 +GCC 4.2.2 compiler, Geany IDE, Mercurial Repostitories and all development 
  26.167 +libraries. Packages can be found through the search function of Tazpkg or via 
  26.168 +the website: http://www.slitaz.org/packages/
  26.169 +</p>
  26.170 +<p>
  26.171 +The binary packages on the mirror can all be compiled by using the "wok" or
  26.172 +"Tazwok" to cook. All of the developer documentation is contained in the
  26.173 +"SliTaz Cookbook" and is available online.
  26.174 +</p>

  26.177 +<h3><font color="#6c0023">Graphical Desktops</font></h3>
  26.178 +<p>
  26.179 +By default, the Slitaz LiveCD uses the very light and stable JWM window manager.
  26.180 +The integration of the taskbar "LXpanel" makes it possible to dynamically 
  26.181 +provide a menu based on the Freedesktop standards. The principle is to have a 
  26.182 +small menu accessible via a screen click with the favourites, windows effects,
  26.183 +LiveCD and LiveUSB tools, JWM configuration and system actions made available.
  26.184 +Applications can also be accessed through the menu supplied by LXpanel.
  26.185 +</p>
  26.186 +<p>
  26.187 +Through the support of a LiveCD flavor or an installed system you can install
  26.188 +the Enlightenment (e17) desktop environment or the Openbox window manager.
  26.189 +The different sessions can be selected via the F1 key when using the "Slim"
  26.190 +login window. To change the default session you can use 'tazx' or manually edit
  26.191 +the ~/.Xinitrc file.

  26.197 +The SliTaz project offers various means of help and support to users of the
  26.198 +system, using the mailing list, forum or IRC channel. User documentation
  26.199 +is contained in the SliTaz Handbook, making it possible to configure SliTaz
  26.200 +to some degree. The Handbook is also available on the web site. The manuals
  26.201 +of the various tools are installed on the system and are available through the
  26.202 +documentation menu - they describe all the various commands made possible by
  26.203 +the tools. The development of the operating system and the use of the wok and
  26.204 +receipts are described in the "Slitaz Cookbook". The books, manuals and memos
  26.205 +are all available online: http://www.slitaz.org/doc/

  26.222 +<p>
  26.223 +The installer of SLiTaz GNU/linux offers an update function allowing you to
  26.224 +upgrade from a 'Cooking' to 'Stable' version. To upgrade the system you first
  26.225 +need to boot the 'Stable' LiveCD, launch the installer, select upgrade and then
  26.226 +specify the partition containing the system that you want to update. The
  26.227 +installer will then clean out the system and reinstall all the packages not
  26.228 +present on the CD from the mirror. When this has finished you can reboot
  26.229 +with your new version of SliTaz. Note that this method can also be used to
  26.230 +rebuild an already installed system, while retaining the selection of packages
  26.231 +already installed.
  26.232 +</p>
  26.233 +<p>
  26.234 +Note that the installer will keep a copy of the list of packages and a complete
  26.235 +archive of the /etc directory (etc.tar.gz) in /var/lib/slitaz-install.

   27.20 +
   27.21 +Overview
   27.22 +--------
   27.23 +SliTaz GNU/Linux is a free, open source community project. Version 1.0 was 
   27.24 +released on March 22 2008 after two years of hard work. Slitaz comprises of 448 
   27.25 +software packages easily installed via the "Tazpkg" package manager. The LiveCD
   27.26 +can be fully configured to taste, to easily create a custom distribution 
   27.27 +specificically for tasks such as multimedia, graphics or development. 
   27.28 +
   27.29 +Slitaz can also be installed to your hard drive, or used with USB media - with
   27.30 +"TazUSB" you are only a few simple commands away from a fully formatted and 
   27.31 +configured USB device, ready to boot.
   27.32 +
   27.33 +Technical support is provided to users via the mailing list and the official
   27.34 +forum. The "Slitaz Handbook" is an instructive manual on how to use and finely
   27.35 +configure the system. Slitaz can be updated easily via the graphic installer or
   27.36 +by using the simple fast text installer. 
   27.37 +
   27.38 +
   27.39 +Supported Hardware
   27.40 +------------------
   27.41 +SliTaz GNU/Linux supports all machines based on i486 or x86 Intel compatible
   27.42 +processors. A minimum 128MB of memory is recommended to use the main LiveCD. 
   27.43 +64MB is needed for the "slitaz-loram" flavor and 16MB for the 
   27.44 +"slitaz-loram-cdrom" flavor.
   27.45 +
   27.46 +With the slitaz-loram flavour, the system is less responsive, but allows you to
   27.47 +graphically install SliTaz on very old machines. Once installed, Slitaz works
   27.48 +well with a minimum of 16MB memory, but forget about using Firefox to surf the 
   27.49 +web - you'll have to use the text based 'links' for example.  
   27.50 +
   27.51 +Most network and sound card drivers are supported in the Kernel. Presently, 
   27.52 +power management is enabled by default with ACPI and support for laptops is 
   27.53 +enabled with the "ac" and "battery" modules.
   27.54 +
   27.55 +
   27.56 +LiveCD Flavors
   27.57 +--------------
   27.58 +SliTaz GNU/Linux is distributed as a bootable LiveCD allowing you to
   27.59 +graphically install to the hard drive and retain the use of your previous 
   27.60 +system including all settings, applications, documents etc. 
   27.61 +
   27.62 +The project distributes an ISO image called "core", which is the body of the 
   27.63 +system, providing a selection of multi-use packages for surfing the web, 
   27.64 +listening to music, audio editing, image manipulation, developing (including 
   27.65 +PHP/SQL), editing ISOs or burning to optical media. It's just one click in the 
   27.66 +application menu to find software installed by category.
   27.67 +
   27.68 +The "core" LiveCD can also be customised and rebuilt both graphically or from
   27.69 +the command line. Install your own custom set of packages, or simply use one
   27.70 +of the preset flavors on the mirror. Then simply generate your distribution 
   27.71 +with the "Tazlito" tool.
   27.72 +
   27.73 +
   27.74 +Installation
   27.75 +------------
   27.76 +The installation is fully automated and can be done graphically or in text
   27.77 +mode. The prerequisite material and other useful information can be found in the 
   27.78 +Manual and Handbook. 
   27.79 +
   27.80 +If you want to partition a disk before installation, you can quickly use 
   27.81 +Gparted in LiveCD mode or use a flavor containing the partitioning tool. At 
   27.82 +the end of the installation it is possible to setup the "GRUB" bootloader which
   27.83 +is capable of starting almost all operating systems. This allows SliTaz to 
   27.84 +co-exist with a previously installed operating system, such as Windows.
   27.85 +
   27.86 +
   27.87 +Linux Kernel
   27.88 +------------
   27.89 +Slitaz GNU/Linux is distributed with the Linux Kernel 2.6.24.2, patched for
   27.90 +LZMA compression support and display correction for the virtual console. The
   27.91 +support for IDE and SCSI is integrated, as are the filesystems ext2 and ext3.
   27.92 +
   27.93 +Most network cards are supported either directly or as loadable modules with
   27.94 +'modprobe'. Video capture, if needed, requires the ieee1394, raw1394 and
   27.95 +oci1394 modules installed. The management of the sound card drivers is obtained
   27.96 +with 'soundconf'.
   27.97 +
   27.98 +The configuration of startup modules is located in /etc/rcS.conf. In 
   27.99 +LiveCD/LiveUSB mode you can use 'modprobe=mod1, mod2' to load various modules 
  27.100 +at boot time.
  27.101 +
  27.102 +The Linux Kernel configuration of SliTaz is available in the compressed file
  27.103 +/proc/config.gz and also in the Mercurial repositories.
  27.104 +
  27.105 +
  27.106 +Software Packages
  27.107 +-----------------
  27.108 +The management of software packages is done with the custom package manager 
  27.109 +"Tazpkg". It's simple, fast, stable and offers an interactive mode. Among the 
  27.110 +448 packages available you will find anything you need to transform your 
  27.111 +machine to a complete graphical desktop (e17), a graphics studio with The Gimp
  27.112 +or Inkscape, or to a video editor with Kino. You can experience the world wide
  27.113 +web with instant messaging, VOIP, email and of course through a web browser. 
  27.114 +
  27.115 +Slitaz is also designed to function as a powerful web server, using the stable
  27.116 +LightTPD/PHP package (installed by default), supporting CGI, Perl and Python.
  27.117 + 
  27.118 +Rsync is used for incremental backup and iptables functions as the firewall. 
  27.119 +SliTaz can of course also provide a complete development environment with the 
  27.120 +GCC 4.2.2 compiler, Geany IDE, Mercurial Repostitories and all development 
  27.121 +libraries. Packages can be found through the search function of Tazpkg or via 
  27.122 +the website: http://www.slitaz.org/packages/
  27.123 +
  27.124 +The binary packages on the mirror can all be compiled by using the "wok" or
  27.125 +"Tazwok" to cook. All of the developer documentation is contained in the
  27.126 +"SliTaz Cookbook" and is available online.
  27.127 +
  27.128 +
  27.129 +Graphical Desktops
  27.130 +------------------
  27.131 +By default, the Slitaz LiveCD uses the very light and stable JWM window manager.
  27.132 +The integration of the taskbar "LXpanel" makes it possible to dynamically 
  27.133 +provide a menu based on the Freedesktop standards. The principle is to have a 
  27.134 +small menu accessible via a screen click with the favourites, windows effects,
  27.135 +LiveCD and LiveUSB tools, JWM configuration and system actions made available.
  27.136 +Applications can also be accessed through the menu supplied by LXpanel.
  27.137 +
  27.138 +Through the support of a LiveCD flavor or an installed system you can install
  27.139 +the Enlightenment (e17) desktop environment or the Openbox window manager.
  27.140 +The different sessions can be selected via the F1 key when using the "Slim"
  27.141 +login window. To change the default session you can use 'tazx' or manually edit
  27.142 +the ~/.Xinitrc file.
  27.143 +
  27.144 +
  27.145 +Support and Documentation
  27.146 +-------------------------
  27.147 +The SliTaz project offers various means of help and support to users of the
  27.148 +system, using the mailing list, forum or IRC channel. User documentation
  27.149 +is contained in the SliTaz Handbook, making it possible to configure SliTaz
  27.150 +to some degree. The Handbook is also available on the web site. The manuals
  27.151 +of the various tools are installed on the system and are available through the
  27.152 +documentation menu - they describe all the various commands made possible by
  27.153 +the tools. The development of the operating system and the use of the wok and
  27.154 +receipts are described in the "Slitaz Cookbook". The books, manuals and memos
  27.155 +are all available online: http://www.slitaz.org/doc/
  27.156 +
  27.157 +
  27.158 +Security
  27.159 +--------
  27.160 +For the benefit of a safe and secure system it's important to recharge and
  27.161 +update packages regularly. The Firewall is provided by iptables, and the
  27.162 +LightTPD server supports authentication by encrypted passwords and Dropbear
  27.163 +provides a secure SSH client and server. The passwords for the users of the
  27.164 +system are encrypted and only the root administrator can modify system files.
  27.165 +For information about how to configure the firewall, you can refer to the
  27.166 +Handbook. The packages related to security are all classified under the topic:
  27.167 +Security.
  27.168 +
  27.169 +
  27.170 +From Cooking to Stable
  27.171 +----------------------
  27.172 +The installer of SLiTaz GNU/linux offers an update function allowing you to
  27.173 +upgrade from a 'Cooking' to 'Stable' version. To upgrade the system you first
  27.174 +need to boot the 'Stable' LiveCD, launch the installer, select upgrade and then
  27.175 +specify the partition containing the system that you want to update. The
  27.176 +installer will then clean out the system and reinstall all the packages not
  27.177 +present on the CD from the mirror. When this has finished you can reboot
  27.178 +with your new version of SliTaz. Note that this method can also be used to
  27.179 +rebuild an already installed system, while retaining the selection of packages
  27.180 +already installed.
  27.181 +
  27.182 +Note that the installer will keep a copy of the list of packages and a complete
  27.183 +archive of the /etc directory (etc.tar.gz) in /var/lib/slitaz-install.
