Summary | 0007283: build.sh --installer does not include files in kali-config/common/includes.chroot | ||||
Description | build.sh --installer does not include files in kali-config/common/includes.chroot Building a live iso (build.sh), Does include all files under kali-config/common/includes.chroot Thanks in advance | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Prepare yourself for custom bilding Same build without the --installer and after installing from that image the files are where they should. | ||||
Additional Information | Logs in build for live image show: [2021-08-11 11:07:24] lb chroot_includes_after_packages Logs for installer image do not show anything similar | ||||
Sorry, did not type an s here: That line should read: Building an installer iso (build.sh --installer). Does not. It is only a typo, when I tried, the command was correct |
|
This is not a bug. The directory "includes.chroot" is only for adding files to the Live image. It's not for the installer. It's mentioned in the documentation, albeit it's not super explicit: | With Live images, you have the option to include additional files or scripts I'm not sure you can do that with the installer image |
|
OK. That text below misleadme. You can configure virtually any aspect of your Kali ISO build, such as adding packages from outside of Kali network repositories, unattended installations to changing the default wallpaper. Our build-scripts provides a framework that uses a configuration set to automate and customize all aspects of building the images. The Kali Linux development team use the same build-scripts to produce the official Kali ISO releases. |

The tool that builds the installer image is "simple-cdd". Therefore the directory "live-build-config/simple-cdd" contains things specific to the installer image. The Debian wiki contains some information: https://wiki.debian.org/Simple-CDD/Howto. See the sections "Add custom files onto your installer CD" and "Add self-built packages to CD", maybe it can help. Did you also check https://forums.kali.org/ ? Maybe there are some information, or maybe someone can help over there. Good luck! |
