Modular Live-Bootable Linux distribution: SFSLiveBoot

Creating bootable USB

Unzip sfs/boot.zip to the top directory of a USB drive FAT-32 partition
Download vmlinuz-*⁽¹⁾, ramdisk-*⁽²⁾ and 10-kernel-*.sfs⁽³⁾ files to boot/linux/x86_64/ directory of the USB drive.
Download following .sfs files to boot/linux/:
- 00-bookworm-gnome.sfs - root filesystem image
- 15-settings.sfs - system settings
- 20-scripts.sfs - helper scripts
- 40-home.sfs - user's home directory and settings

Check README.txt files from the .zip for more information.
You can add more functionality by downloading additional .sfs files from common or dist-dependent to boot/linux/ directory.
HINT: you probably want to have at least some kind of browser.
