Hi everyone! I'm trying to prepare a live iso with a USB stick including the additional rescuezilla package (or, alternatively, additional packages for a live rescuezilla .iso). Sadly rescuezilla does not support encryption, and so I'd like to be able to create/encrypt an image on one single live iso, not having to do a double iso boot just for this. I'm trying to do this in a manner that I won't need internet once I need to use this USB stick. And hence…I found the most quoted command as:
apt-get download $(apt-rdepends |grep -v "^ ")
But this seems to work ONLY if your package is also part of the repo. If it's an external .deb such as rescuezilla_2.4.2-1_all.deb is, then the command just fails with:
Reading state information... Done
W: Unable to locate package ./rescuezilla_2.4.2-1_all.deb
E: Handler silently failed
So…what can I do to download the many dependencies of rescuezilla onto a USB stick? Thanks!
DB only gives you the dependencies, but is otherwise not sheltered. It still has access to all host OS files, including hard drives and other stuff.
Sadly, I'm not super experienced with it, and I use it on an immutable distro, where can't change that much, at least nothing on the root level.
You would have to read the documentation or google it yourself sadly, I'm out of luck here for you.
I still hope my suggestion was successful :)
