Thoughts on further developnent about mylfs

I completely agree. I'm not familiar with SquashFS, nor with how ISO filesystems work, but as I mentioned in the other issue, it looks like you brought some good starting places to get an ISO working.

2...

The point of the "extension" capability was so that you could add BLFS scripts (and completely custom scripts) to your build. I don't like the idea of maintaining those scripts in this project though, I think that would be too much. I was thinking it would be better for people to keep their own BLFS scripts in a separate repositories that they would just maintain on their own. It sounds like you are already planning a branch for this though, so I'll remain open to the idea if things don't get too crazy.

As for CLFS, that might be too much too. At least for me. I don't know it that well, but looking at it, it looks like the script would need to juggle instructions from NINE different books http://www.clfs.org/view/CLFS-3.0.0-SYSVINIT/. And that's just for SysVinit.

I agree with this. I was already thinking of doing this instead of the way the script currently does it.

Personally, I think the priorities should be:

1. Provide the option to either directly build or convert IMG files into VM bootable ISO files (as you already mentioned).
2. Provide the option to build SystemD instead of only SysVInit.
3. Provide the option to use UEFI instead of only legacy BIOS. I kinda gave up on this one since it seemed to me that most people don't bother with UEFI. But I'd kinda like to take another crack at it at some point.

Ok. So...
What if to change section 2 into abillity to build a multi_phased extension? Like a blfs....

This will be helpful, i think...

As i remember correctly, they can work both together.

That could work for sure

Can you please add Discussions tab so we can discuss some small issues without making a *issue?

[krglaws]

Done. I actually didn't know about that feature until now lol

[mkikets99]

Ok, so i am closing this issue.
It will be better to discuss that further at Discussion Tab
