Custom .iso's boot to a "fresh" Ubuntu desktop (with no customizations or custom app's) or hang at plymouth, i.e. U E 3.0, Bodhi Linux stall at Plymouth, OZ Unity, "Guru's" PenUltimate, as well as my own Customs, All boot to Ubuntu desktop ! I have used Remastersys as well as Relinux, with the same results ! This has been an issue with the "New" Ubuntu, since 11.04 ! Am I missing something ? anyone else have this issue ? :? :ugeek:
:downthere
P.S Yes I have added necessary files to ect/skel ! ;)
P.S.S. Also My custom was built on 12.04 w/ all updates, BUT when loaded shows 11.10 Fresh 700+ updates ! HUH !?

Not sure what happened but do you have the latest Remastersys? I think it is 3.0
Also Ubuntu does not show 12.04 yet it is only in the Alpha stages and should be changed soon.

Hi JOHNNYG,
Only issues I have had has been with the automatic pulldown of the PAE Kernel when using 32bit. Looking at your signature, 1Gb ram means the PAE Kernel is not the issue. I see you're using an ATI card - are you running a 3.xx series Kernel (which doesn't necessarily like ATI)?
Also, if using Remastersys 3 series, do your own /skel additions as Tony's (fragadelic) menu option for copying files to skel also copies user.dirs and other things which can cause issues with the creation of home folders and keyrings.
If you can work with standard generic stuff (ie no vid card, just onboard Intel) and copy only the barest essentials to /skel, it will solve a lot of issues.
Lastly, have you tested a 'backup'.iso to see if it works correctly? If not, then there are larger issues at play.

Sorry can't be more help.
'Moebius.iso Test Dev' was remixed from 11.10 without issue - you're more than welcome to pull it down and test to see what happens. Might give you a heads up as well.
12.04 Precise daily builds as mentioned by N92 will still show 11.10 until after freeze (I believe). I have the same thing happening here.

Cheers. :D
