Next challenge at #BashLab: build an AI assistant for creating live OS with #livebuild.
I already built one for #Buildroot and one for #Pentesting.
Problem: no solid PDFs for live-build, only the official HTML docs with tons of links.
Now I need to feed the entire site into my RAG.
Time to scrape, structure, and index 🤟🏻
That seemingly simple screenshot marks a milestone: I’ve successfully built a fully automated custom Debian Live ISO.
No manual login, no clicks, just boot, and the custom SystemD service runs immediately.
This moves me from 'tinkering' to professional OS-on-demand production.
Ready to deliver embedded, diagnostic, or scientific systems that just work.
🚀 BashCore is cloning itself. Literally.
BashCoreX live USB (Bookworm + kernel 6.1 + XFCE) is currently building BashCoreT (Trixie + kernel 6.12) via live-build. It’s reproducing. I’m emotional 🥹
If everything works, I’ll start naming each version (inspired by friends & family 💛).
All releases will stay on the server, but download buttons will always point to the latest version. Simple, elegant, and scalable.
#Linux #BashCore #LiveBuild #Debian #XFCE #Trixie #Bookworm #Kernel612 #Cloning
🧘♂️ BashCore Enlightenment (USB Edition)
Booted BashCore live from USB. Installed live-build and stuff.
Ran a script to generate a fresh ISO.
lsblk to find the right device (after 3 wrong guesses 😅).
mount, umount, mount, panic, umount -l. 🤦♂️
Copied ISO to another USB.
No VM. Just recursive zen and command-line chaos. 👊
Got a sneaky WhatWeb crash on our Debian Bookworm based live images (kernel 6.1, built with live-build):
uninitialized constant WhatWeb::Scan::Set 🤌
Root cause: Ruby 3.x no longer autoloads stdlib modules like Set.
Fix: add require 'set' at the top of lib/whatweb/scan.rb (or patch it during the build).
After that, WhatWeb runs fine 👌
🚀 BashCore is now live with Debian 13 “Trixie” and Linux kernel 6.12!
I just built and booted a working ISO using live-build. Automatic login, clean terminal, blazing fast!
Some deprecated warnings from Metasploit and WPScan failed during build, but hey, it boots!
Time to test its stability and see how this young Debian release performs.
🙌 Hurray for progress!

🐧 **Late-night coding saga**
Building *BashCore-X*, wrestling with *live-build*, tweaking *XFCE* configs... oh, and fighting off relentless mosquitoes! At least my trusty anti-mosquito spray is here. 💻🦟

This May Day, Labour Day, I woke up early to work on my new project BashCoreLX.
I have set up a lab similar to the one I used for BashCore, and I am currently building the first test ISO using live-build.
Fingers crossed 🤞
#bashcorelx #bashcore #linux #livebuild #opensource #mayday #labourday #devlog
🔥 Finally fixed a long-standing issue in my LiveBuild setup! 🔥
For months, start-stop-daemon and dpkg-divert were throwing warnings during the build, suggesting --no-rename. After countless tests, the fix was simpler than expected: an appropriate hook in LiveBuild did the trick!
Lesson learned: sometimes the solution is right in front of us! 🛠️
