Hi,
I like to add some of my own utilities, etc.. to the CentOS 5.0 LiveCD. IOW I am looking for a way to rebuild the livecd for specific purposes. Can someone reach me handle where to start? The only thing I've found so far is the out-of-the-box iso.
Thanks, John

I would like to point out that this MIGHT be how we build the livecd for CentOS-5.1 (I would even say PROBABLY will be) ... however it was not how the livecd for CentOS-5.0 was produced.
It might help you in your particular efforts though.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes

This is great! Been looking for this for a while. Just created a couple test images without any issues or surprises.

Does anyone have any suggestions for persisting configuration changes to floppy or other media like USB stick? I don't want to create a new image every time a firewall rule changes, and I need changes to persist after a reboot.
I'm having a hard time finding information on this subject. I was hoping for something a little more elegant than mounting a floppy via fstab and using symlinks to relocate configuration files like "/etc/sysconfig/iptables". I'd like to use a single image for several machines. Each hostname, firewall rules, ip addresses, etc would be saved on a floppy that's specific to that machine.
Thanks, Ken

Variation on this theme: has anyone used 'Clonezilla live' or tried to rebuild a custom version? http://clonezilla.sourceforge.net/clonezilla-live/
It might be extremely useful to combine this with the Centos install/rescue/live CDs so that you could clone an image to disk, the continue into the rescue-mode setup that mounts the disk partitions so you can make any necessary changes (hostname, IP addresses, etc.) without rebooting.

while not really an answer to your question, I would like to ask you to file an issue report about things that you consider should be on the livecd but are not ( http://bugs.centos.org ) - so that we can actually do something about it for the next livecd release.
I would like to do so but the things I want to add are very specific for our companies operations department and have less or no value at all for the public domain.
Gr., John
