[nmglug] miniroot.gz

Brian;
I will give your suggestion a try,a nice twist,
in the mean time I used /mnt/*/ seemed to work
                                  Thanks Anthony

  You may need to add the recursive option to the cp command you gave:

  :~/mnt# cp -R /mnt  ~/knoppix-usb/bootdisk

    Dear Club Members;
    Modifying miniroot.gz:, no worky.

    I DID;(from instructions bottom this page)

    :~#cd damnsmall-0.3.6-usb/knoppix
    :~/damnsmall-0.3.6-usb/knoppix#
    mount -o loop boot.img  /mnt

    ['loop: loaded  (max 8 devices)']

    :~/damnsmall-0.3.6-usb/knoppix# cd /mnt
    :~/mnt# cp /mnt  ~/knoppix-usb/bootdisk

    ['cp: omitting directory '/mnt' ']
    -----
    Neither directory nor files appear
    in/as "~knoppix-usb/bootdisk" in root directory. 
    they do remain in /mnt.

    ------BACKGROUND INFO.-------
    Modifying miniroot.gz: (instructions)
    "First you need to modify the Boot-image (KNOPPIX/boot.img}.
    Mount it (mount -o loop boot.img  /mnt)
    and copy everything in a directory 
    (e.g.~/knoppix-usb.bootdisk).
    You need to modify "linuxrc" in "miniroot.gz" and put the relevant usb
    modules in "modules/usb/."
