I am a teacher of computer science, and for a few years I ask my
students to buy an USB key on which they put the 2 Linux liveOSes I have
prepared for them. Installing is automatic and each key has builtin the
ability to replicate.
One of the liveOS is Ubuntu the other was Slax and will be SliTaz (
Ubuntu is uneasy for netboot and too fat to be copied in RAM, which is a
feature I use very often when a student has forgotten his USB key).
New to SliTaz I ask some advice about what I would like to achieve.
The first day I receive new students, they all arrive with a virgin USB
key. Each computer is started by pxe with SliTaz Loram-ram (so easy, I
think I don't need advice about this point ).
After one hour of practice I ask them to fill their USB key.
My question is: with which tools (as SliTaz is concerned). There are so
many tools that it is not easy to pick the better suited. I understand
that all tools need access to an iso. I think I will provided one with
only isolinux/ and bzImage, embedded in rootfs. If embedding is too
hard, I will provide it via http.
After some years of experience I think it is very important that
students be able to customize their own keys, and I found that SliTaz
makes that very easy to a newbie.
Any suggestions ?
