system-d is a 'good' enough OS which can be porting to ram based much easier than RH6 upstart(we need inject a script to move the NEWROOT to /dev/ram0), in system-d, there is a service named "initrd-switch-root.service", open the original file you will find it is only 1 command...

Now we replace this command with a shell script which named "dracut-create-fs". So, we can do anyhing we want.

The bad news is Cent7 file system is really much more bigger than RH6.    :-(

So we have initial version for this, it is already splitted in 7 parts.



c7_extract_fs_xz.sh is a script which can merge all 7 parts to 1 file system and layout them in /temp/create_os

c7_make_root.sh will split and package file system in /temp/create_os to /temp/folders with 7 xz files with their MD5


"Cent7x-Release / DD_IMAGE" it is a 12GB or more USB key DD image. (use 16GB or 32 GB usb key suggestted)

a. extract xz to dd image
b. transfer image to a linux machine
c. dd if=DD_8GB_DEMO of=/dev/sdx(assume your usb disk is sdx)

Note:

This DD image only support VM IDE raw or USB key, can not run on SATA HDDs.

"GUI-OS" has 7 parts of a GUI based Cent7.x file system
"mini-os" has 7 parts of a small cmdline cent7.x file system
