How to modify an iso image file
Hi,
I'm trying to create a customized debian installer on a USB key.
I found a tutorial on how to create the usb key.
After the USB key is prepared, all you have to do is to copy the iso file to the stick.
So what I need to do now is to be able to modify the content of the iso file before copying it to the usb stick.
I found how to mount iso file to a mount poinr but I can't find a way to change it.
<edit>
By the way, I thought it would be much easier to have the installation files just copied to the flash drive (instead of inside a iso file inside the flash drive).
That would make edition of installation files much simplier.
Is this possible?
</edit>
Can anyone help me ?
Santiago

usb-devices
usb-devices(1) Linux USB Utilities usb-devices(1)
NAME
usb-devices - print USB device details
SYNOPSIS
usb-devices
DESCRIPTION
usb-devices is a (bash) shell script that can be used to display details of USB buses in the system and the devices connected to them.
The output of the script is similar to the usb/devices file available either under /proc/bus (if usbfs is mounted), or under /sys/ker-
nel/debug (if debugfs is mounted there). The script is primarily intended to be used if the file is not available.
In contrast to the usb/devices file, this script only lists active interfaces (those marked with a "*" in the usb/devices file) and their
endpoints.
Be advised that there can be differences in the way information is sorted, as well as in the format of the output.
RETURN VALUE
If sysfs is not mounted, a non-zero exit code is returned.
FILES
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb*
The part of the sysfs tree the script walks through to assemble the printed information.
/proc/bus/usb/devices
Location where the usb/devices file can normally be found for Linux kernels before 2.6.31, if usbfs is mounted.
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices
Location where the usb/devices file can normally be found for Linux kernel 2.6.31 and later, if debugfs is mounted.
