Guide to particulars in customizing Ubuntu Installer
- by Oxwivi
I've tried reading through guides for preseeding and customization, but I did not understand how and where to modify which options. I can only comfortably learn through practical examples, for which I ask this question.
I am looking into preseeding and customizing solution to just do a few specific tasks:
Completely rewrite the packages installed by default, much like minimal installs and with the --no-install-recommends flag of apt-get.
Add a few proprietary applications to the default install list
Automatically install and mount proprietary drivers on install and live session
Edit the default configuration files for applications installed by default
Specify partitions along with permission
Modify the package pool in the installer media (CD/DVD/USB), preferably using command line tools similar to apt-get and aptitude.
Can anyone please tell me how to configure preseed option to only do the above?
NB I do not understand the GPG part after adding/removing packages in the pool.
PS The third point is of particular importance.
