[Devil-linux-develop] Build Problems

[John v. V. <joh...@ya...>]

Hi, I spent all of yesterday and today trying to do the build.  

I am not sure where to begin, but the most troubling is the diskspace problem.

I created 1.5 gigs of space and the make iso still complained that there is no
disk space.  I did a df and there were 500 MB available and the end of the
build.

The build claimed to be successful even though there were multiple errors along
the way.

Doing each build is too time consuming  because there are so many packages,
most of which I dont need.

My honest opinion is that we should begin at the beginning and step through the
whole process to make sure all the documentation is clear and that the scripts
truly exit on failure.

I believe that "make" is only useful in the compliling process.  Shell is far
easier to use and much better understood by the majority of admins and very
easy to manipulate.  Sections of shell code can be recycled into other
applications.
Kshell provides for menues, etc, and is publically available.

Any ideas ??

John
