   So the audio module is built in with default kernel right? If i want the audio i have to reinstall the kernel?

   Key Master

   No, every driver possible is compiled as module so it can be split off from the kernel linux-<kernel-version>.tazpkg
   Linux kernel module packages: http://pkgs.slitaz.org/?package=linux-
   All sound kernel modules are in the linux-sound-<kernel-version>.tazpkg
   http://pkgs.slitaz.org/?file=snd-hda-intel.ko.xz
   This allows building an iso as small as possible containing only kernel drivers needed.

   When I've used Pizza a year ago I meat the same problem: it wasn't possible to remove packages from the flavor I've selected. I can only remove packages that I'd added...

   So what the point to create a new iso with the same packages ... lol i dont see what the
   difference there.
   My aim is to create a clean iso no need to remove delete packages.

    Hi apache,

    Seems here's no tools fully satisfied your needs.
    I've manually prepared ISO for you, you can grab it here: http://people.slitaz.org/~lexeii/iso/

    Thx Aleksej but sorry to say that it not workin ... i did delete the packages one by one using this iso
    http://pizza.slitaz.me/?id=20150315-5401
    your iso is smaller than mine ...what method do you use to create this iso?

    In my custom iso after installing others packages that i save in my flash and run 'startx' and then it workin but your version say cannot open application.conf something like that ...so i copy applications.conf from workin iso to yours then it workin but then i get something like uuid error when try opening firefox ... it not happen with other app 'alsamixer'...
    thnx in advance.

    Hi apache,

    Thank you for dbus-uuidgen hint, I'll try to implement it later.

    Sorry, I haven't enough time to describe you process creating custom ISO. Only in short.
    My host machine running SliTaz Rolling, and I use latest tazpkg.

    1. mkdir -p /tmp/packages
    2. Download specified packages to /tmp/packages
    3. Generate rootfs: for each package run command:
    # tazpkg -i /tmp/package/.......tazpkg --root=/tmp/rootfs --nodeps
    4. Clean rootfs: remove package cache and clean /var/lib/tazpkg (leave only 'installed*', 'blocked-packages.list', 'mirror', 'mirrors').
    5. Compress rootfs:
    cd /tmp/rootfs; find | sed 's|^./||' | busybox cpio -F /tmp/rootfs.cpio -H newc -o
lzma e /tmp/rootfs.cpio /tmp/rootfs.gz
    6. Get regular SliTaz-4 ISO, open it in the ISO Master; remove original rootfs.gz, put there new rootfs.gz, save ISO image.

    Bump;

    Hello guyz my base rootfs have 4 packages install;

    busybox
    glibc-base
    slitaz-base-files
    slitaz-boot-scripts

    I want to ask here it is possible to exclude any one of those packages from the rootfs to save more byte for my rootfs and then it can be extract/install it during boot time?
    Thanks in advance.
