"i'm really curious to try your setup, whenever you like to share it
should i open an ftp or rsync upload on the server?"
---------
Almost, but not quite-- I only have one computer, but I will have to
build another one, or better yet (a basic one is pretty cheap) just
get another one.
But how I did it:
Since debootstrap builds the system in /mnt, I copied Installed
GnewSense and chrooted into that. From there I let debootstrap build
the minimal system in /mnt and I copied that into a partition of its
own in a folder called "/Templates/debinst/". There is also
"/Templates/MyPreferreddebinst/" for the installed Synaptic and
whatever additional preferencial apps I've installed. For any fast
changes, I just delete the Working chroot system that is in the actual
root of the partition itself and then replenish the root partition
with a copy from one of the 'template folders' depending on what I'm
doing.
