livecd-tools: cache for yum ?
by Vnpenguin
Hi,
Does livecd-tools uses a cache for yum ? I can't found command line
option for the cache yet ?
I have no local repo and I don't want download all packages for each build.
Thanks,

Keep cache with --cache (#479716)
Specifying --cache works if the image creation fails. It gets reused
afterwards. But if we successfully create an image YUM itself deletes all the
rpm files and next run of livecd-creator starts to download it all again.

Determin Overlay Free Space
by Kam Salisbury
I want to determin how much free space (or used space) the Fedora 10 Live
USB install I built has. I actually run Fedora from my 16GB USB, exclusively
- it never gets installed.
Dropping to a shell, "df -h" give me...
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/live-rw 3.0G 2.3G 650M 79% /
tmpfs 1013M 76K 1013M 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1 7.5G 6.9G 584M 93% /mnt/live
varcacheyum 1013M 0 1013M 0% /var/cache/yum
/tmp 1013M 104K 1013M 1% /tmp
vartmp 1013M 0 1013M 0% /var/tmp
Since I created a 2GB overlay and the install is brand new, the output does
not make sense. Well, maybe if the Fedora image is taking up some of the 2GB
it makes sense.
Is there a tool to see % overlay used? Health of the overlay itself? My web
searches have only found ways to create the overlay via the livecd tools
interface or shell command line.

Conference Talk on livecd-tools
by Keith Wright
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Over the last year, I have built a couple of distributions for our
company using livecd-tools with both Fedora 9 and 10. Now, the company I
work for will be hosting the first annual Open Source Conference, and
has asked me to give a presentation about "Building a Custom
Distribution." The focus of my presentation will be livecd-tools.
While I feel confident about what I want to discuss, it would be great
to have experts on livecd-tools present.
One Course Source's Open Source Conference is scheduled for January
28-29, 2009 in San Diego, California. Our conference will take place in
the San Diego Ramada Inn and Conference Center. Registration begins on
September 20, 2008.
I want to mention a 75% off coupon code that expires on
Friday, January 16th. This means that to attend the conference will
cost less than $100 who use this code. This include food and
drink! The coupon code is _*code99a*_. You can register at
http://www.onecoursesource.com/ocs-osc.php.
Even if you don't attend, you can still win prizes with our pass-it-on
contest: http://www.onecoursesource.com/pass-it-on.php.

Building CentOS5 Live CD on F10
by Forrest Taylor
I am trying to build a CentOS 5.1 Live image on Fedora 10. It builds
the image, but when I try to run it, it fails to boot with:
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
I was able to successfully build CentOS5.1 on another CentOS 5 machine
using the repo provided by nanotechnologies.qc.ca. However, it uses the
older livecd-tools-013. I rebuilt livecd-tools-020 on CentOS5, but I
get the same error that I had on F10.
Does anyone know what changed in the newer livecd-tools that no longer
supports CentOS5?
Thanks,
