Group: Software/FSDG distributions/CrossDistroBootstrap
From LibrePlanet
Introduction
In some cases, users and developers might need to install an FSDG distribution from another one.
For instance to build specific Replicant versions we need specific Trisquel versions.
This tracks tools that can script installations of an FSDG distribution rootfs from another FSDG distribution.
The criteria for being OK / green are very subjective:
- The installation needs to be somehow automated (debootstrap / pacstrap)
- Signature needs to be checked
