I have extracted rootskel-gtk udeb , made some changes and recreated the udeb file. Now where do I place this modified file before doing: make netboot_gtk. I copied it to apt.udeb but the i the modifed udeb is not being used.

Thanks

installer/build/localudebs.  Take a look at our wiki since it has a
bunch of useful information for customizers...

I have done it but the modified one is not coming up.

Here is what i have done:

1) fakeroot make netboot-gtk

2) Copied and modified rootskel-gtk-1.15_i386.udeb from builder/installer/apt-udeb

3) Placed the modified udeb file to installer/build/localudebs

4) Then run fakeroot make netboot-gtk again

Not coming up...

Also the pointer relating to this issue to the wiki will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Paras.

You've probably made a sources.list.udeb.local fine right? see if
localudebs is being referenced on that.
