Hi,

I have tried running this using ./lifebuilder but the UI never shows up and it does a lot of things and I noticed it saying user student does not exist etc until it ends with an error saying "student or home folder not found". Am I running the wrong thing?

Thanks

Hi,
if your indent is to build an ISO File from a running Linux System, than you have to tweak this.
Die Application ist just a sub App for a running KDE Linux (http://www.life-edu.eu/).
Maybe we have have missed to crearify it.
Because of that, there must be a user called student. There must be some other stuff to work.

Therefore it's not a standalone Application to use everywhere.
greetings!

Ohh ok, this won't work for me then. Thanks for the info. Yeah, you might want to clarify this in the readme haha

actually... this should run on plain *ubuntu and derivates too

in order to run the pyQt5 GUI you need to run
python3 main.py

if you just want to use the shellscript without the GUI (which basically just exists to setup the basic configuration for the shellscript) you need to edit the config file manually

nano conf/config.py

in there you'll find the settings you may want to change!

for example:
LIVEUSER='student'

this defines which user configuration is going to be used as default in the live system

if you run into additional problems, i would be very interested to know. maybe we could fix them :-)
