I have updated my instructions on how to roll your own CentOS-4 Live CD.<br> I also made a script which does it all for you. I have also got<br>instructions on how to turn the Live CD into a PXE bootable Live version.<br>
<br>All the details can be found here:<br><a href="http://www.byteclub.net/wiki/CentOS_Live">http://www.byteclub.net/wiki/CentOS_Live</a><br><br>John.</blockquote><div>Great! I was just looking for this! Unfortunately there seems to be something missing: by the time we run the first yum command, there's no distroverpkg package installed under $LIVE to query for $releasever.
<br>My output is:<br>--------------<br># yum -c $LIVE/etc/yum.conf --installroot=$LIVE install yum<br>Setting up Install Process<br>Setting up repositories<br>not using ftp, http[s], or file for repos, skipping - Null is not a valid release or hasnt been released yet
<br>Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: update<br>Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: update<br>---------------<br>Should the user install centos-release RPM with prefix equal to $LIVE beforehand? <br>
Or is there any other easy but correct way to pass this variable to yum? <br>
