Just did a few searches, trying to find a redhat or centos 6.x livecd iso, preferably an i686... but no joy. Maybe google's web crawlers haven't found the page yet. Anybody here know where to find it?

Is there such a thing yet?

No. @kbsingh and @centos on Twitter don't mention a finished centos6, let alone a livecd.

https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd/browser/trunk/CentOS6 is supposed to provide what's needed to make a beta iso for a CentOS6 livecd. I don't have time to wade through the documentation (and probably make a few mistakes and then have to start over a few times), to make a bootable iso for a usb stick. Since, according to what I've read, the files on this page do result in a working livecd, and since the newest contributions are two weeks old, I thought that somebody might have already created an image or two. So I was putting a call out.
Just thought... it would be nice if the iso image for a usb stick would include space on the usb stick for writing data. The ultimate goal is to test the hardware on various laptops to ensure that the sound card, NIC(s), video, etc. are all supported by available drivers. Saved to a file on the usb stick for each machine tested, this information could be uploaded to the centos wiki for a pretty good Hardware Compatibility List (HCL)... and make shopping for that next machine a whole lot easier. And so there'd be no (or at least many fewer) unpleasant surprises when trying to install linux on that new machine you just got.
Anybody got some free time on their hands?
