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.

• An understanding of dynamic remastering

• Examine what extensions you would like in each target boot
• Fetch extensions their .dep files, and dependent extentions & .dep files.
  • .tree files help to broadly examine all dependencies for an extension
• Determine how to modularly group the extensions into CGZs to eliminate duplicated extensions.

This is one of the quickest modularization examples.

The extensions TinyCore uses other than any X-specifics

• fltk-1.1.10.tcz flwm_topside.tcz wbar.tcz Xlibs.tcz Xprogs.tcz
• fltk-1.1.10.tcz and Xlibs.tcz are the dependencies for the others

• Xvesa.tcz

• Xfbdev.tcz

Break out some dependencies since they are shared with other extensions

• expat2.tcz fontconfig.tcz pixman.tcz Xorg-7.6-lib.tcz

This can be trimmed as needed, based on desired hardware.
