Can you please tell whether it is possible to transfer files from a Linux boot image to a hard disk? That is: to boot from the boot disk (livecd, liveusb) to install software into it, partition the hard disk, and clone this system, in which we are already working, what would happen, such a pseudo-accelerated installation?

Then, after rebooting, it will boot from hdd and already work on it, as if we had installed: saving the settings, installing the software, changing the locale ...

For example, in Knoppix, the following are recommended:

knoppix tohd=/dev/hda1

Download CD from there. You can then take the Knoppix CD out of the drive.

True, I do not know whether it will be installation, migration, or something else?

  • In principle, you have described the installation of the operating system. because the answer is yes, you can install an operating system on hdd. - aleksandr barakin
  • Could you tell me how to do this? That is, what folders to copy, and how that needs to be added? - damien2008
  • one
    click on the "install" button. if you don’t see the buttons, see the documentation on the distribution site. - aleksandr barakin
  • I do not need to press the "install" button. let's say if I have already booted, and installed the necessary software ..., set up, and now you need to transfer the configured system to disk. - damien2008
  • sorry, did not understand anything. the question is about live-cd, but in the commentary you write: “installed the necessary software”. where did you install it? - aleksandr barakin
