Hello! I am beginner FLOSS, GNU Linux enthusiastic. Free Software should be clear to learn, change and build. For the moment i am using openSUSE Tumbleweed. HOW CAN I BUILD TUMBLEWEED (or other openSUSE distro) ISO FROM SOURCE (good guide)?
Is that kiwi guide an official way? What about OBS?
The github page says " It is NOT intended to create an installation repository or completely new product media. For this, use kiwi" and the url is broken.
Did you see the first link?
Yea and I ve also asked if it’s an official way, because it is not located on opensuse domain and it’s not OBS. I mean Arch (archiso - ArchWiki) or Debian (Building a custom Debian ISO image — debian-live-config 4.2.0 documentation) guides inspire more trust.
I’m sure you can do some basic search yourself…
What about it? What exactly is your question?

“The Open Build Service is a tool to build and distribute packages and distribution images from sources for all Linux distributions. All openSUSE distributions and packages are built in public on an openSUSE instance of OBS at https://build.opensuse.org; this instance is usually what is meant by OBS.”
They say OBS but not kiwi ng
It seems really hard…
If you read the description on https://build.opensuse.org/ you will find directly as one of the first links a link to the wiki Portal:Build Service - openSUSE Wiki
And if you would care to read the wiki, you would find there the link to kiwi Building Linux System Appliances — KIWI NG 10.0.25 documentation
But it seems you don’t care to read the provided informations.
OBS is a tool to automate these tasks. You do not really need OBS, but it makes maintaining packages and products easier.
Images are created using kiwi … sort of, OBS is using fork of older kiwi version under the name product-builder.
Thank you, your answer made it clear. Sorry, I am only beginner. openSUSE docs are not proper…
