Introduction

Dynamic remastering is about assembling 1+ initrd payload files (CPIO.GZ archives for initramfs; herein referred to as CGZs) to allow one to upgrade the core.gz without a full repacking. Dynamic MultiMaster takes this one step further to create a set of modular CGZs that allow component swap/addition from the boot loader without repeating files.

Prerequisites

  • An understanding of dynamic remastering

Overview

  • Examine what extensions you would like in each target boot

Examples

TinyCore-like with XVesa, Xfb or X.Org

This is one of the quickest modularization examples. By separating common extensions into separate CGZs, duplicate data is eliminated.
