I think that my suspect was correct.
You see the mounts on red?
Try unmounting at start again from where you left.
 
this new version of freesbie is quite a nightmare for me, i don t recognize the efficient freesbie use to have, i mean the 1.* versions.
ok it all compiled, thks god to ale for his help, but now, what ever the package is, i get errors like for the sattrack packet:

Generating temporary packing list
===> Checking if astro/sattrack already installed
===> sattrack-3.1.6_2 is already installed
Something went wrong, check errors!
Log saved on /usr/obj/usr/local/share/freesbie/.tmp_extra
*** Signal 15

Stop in /usr/local/share/freesbie.

So what i tried is to deinstall or install the packets on my bsd box in case it would help, but it doesn t.........it s seems that you can compile an iso without been able to custom it

here is a tail of the log file.

shackbox# tail /usr/obj/usr/local/share/freesbie/.tmp_extra
===> Checking if astro/sattrack already installed
===> sattrack-3.1.6_2 is already installed
You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
If you really wish to overwrite the old port of astro/sattrack
without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
in your environment or the "make install" command line.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/astro/sattrack.

any idea how add packages?

here is my conf file for the packages
#######################modif herve shackbox ######################
PORTSDIR=/usr/ports
EXTRA="customroot installports adduser customscripts l10n rootmfs etcmfs varmfs"
INSTALL_PORTS="astro/sattrack x11-wm/windowmaker/ audio/xanalyser audio/xoscope cad/basicdsp comms/acfax comms/geoid comms/gmfsk comms/gnuradio comms/gpredict"

Are you sure this is a valid configuration file for freesbie2?
Maybe I'm wrong, I've never tried to build an image with freesbie, I've just used some 1.x versions years ago.
But from the few docs I can find, there is no option to build ports (I can't find INSTALL_PORTS), but you have to provide a list of packages to install. I'm not sure if the packages from the list are built again, do you know more?
someone in the freesbie mailing list said:
# Set PKGFILE variable to a text file containing a list of packages to
# install in the built system. This file can be either a pkg_info(1)
# like output either a list of packages without version number. Please
# note that this file will be rewritten if you run `make pkgselect'
#
#PKGFILE=/my/own/pkg_info_output.txt

As noted, you can use make pkgselect to have a ncurses frontend to the package choice. Output file is conf/packages (which also is the default PKGFILE value.

You can run pkg_create with -b option to create packages from the "locally" installed ones. Refer to the man page for more.

Try also looking in the attached file.

What problem do you have with the attached files?
Can't you open it with a browser?

Anyway that wasn't the one I want to show you.
Try looking at freesbie2-arch.htm in the attachement.

what i don t get ale,is that if you can t add pkg names in a conf file, how do you add extra package for custom your livecd?
freesbie2 is sooo different from freesbie1 dunno why they did these changed.
do you have the 1* version script? can t find them anywhere
best regards
 
thx a lot, but the thing is:
ok you tell where the tgz are, but what hapends with the deps?
they also get installed like if it was in the port collection?
thxx for helping

well, i guess that freesbie is dead for me :'(
none of the staff answer to my mail,used to be friends, so i guess they are not reading it,they turned the page....
if you know where to score the 1.* scripts version i would be please to give it a try
thxx for your time!
 
Who did you tried to contact?
One of the developer is still accredited as the maintainer for some ports.
Try $ cd /usr/ports/mail/proxsmtp/ && make maintainer.
I really don't think you will have better luck with the 1.* scripts as they are intended for FreeBSD releases now too old.

EDIT:
If I'm not wrong, even the author of this post (it's a motorbike ng) was a member of gufi
Maybe you can get the email address and politely ask him some info.
 
well i tried to contact rionda or david with who i used to be in touched on #irc.
maybe i should download a 4.* branch of fbsd and do it with it :'(
in compare, with linux, i tried remastersys, so easy, create awesome custom livecd in a snap,that s what we can call progress!
 
A new BSD Live CD is available, based on OpenBSD though.

BSDanywhere

What is the primary focus of BSDanywhere?

A mostly unmodified OpenBSD kernel and userland, combined with useful, graphical as well as console-based applications. This allows for complete hardware testing, including X, as well as systems recovery and mobile usage in murky environments.

Thanks _a_lot_ for that link !
It's _exactly_ what I was looking for !
Downloading right now =D

If I can get my Dell 1318 to suspend to ram/disk and resume ok, then I'm not only moving to Open, I'm buying the cds as well !

Best regards and thank you once again !
 
It detected my Realtek 8187B wlan card no problem, didn't work but detected at least. Maybe some configuration or driver needs tweaking.

Something I found different. OpenBSD lables the hardware by manufacturer, instead of eth0, re0 (re=Realtek). No pciconf either, weird. A whole new world.

For FreeBSD, the #1 recommended LiveCD seems to be PC-BSD.
Will keep looking.
 
I start a project call ghostbsd its a live cd base on FreeBSD Freesbie Gnome whit an installer. I try to put finstall on but I have some error to fix. But I have an idea rofreesdie use bsd installer.
all work whit shell script more easy to me to work with shell sript then python.
