What help do you need on getting persistence working, or on LiveCD development in general? All, Is there interest in a LiveDVD with more functionality than will fit on a CD? Perhaps "full desktop/office/productivity/multimedia" GNOME and/or KDE versions? How about LiveCDplus (or LiveDVDplus) as discussed in earlier threads? Perhaps add drivers and/or firmware for common Wifi cards from RPMforge and/or ELRepo? Multimedia add-ons? Obviously there may be licensing or other issues depending on what is added. One possibility could be finding another site to host the images - as in Omega for Fedora. http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7450/1.html Should the LiveCD tools be in a centos.org repo? Speaking of the tools - a bit OT... In my testing while writing http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey I found the centos syslinux not to work (could not find the kernel when booting from USB), while the livecd version did. Comments or insight on this issue would be appreciated. Could not find any bug reports in either the CentOS bug tracker or upstream on the problem. Phil
