Yep, that'd do it. Note to self: need to work on getting the main parts
of that integrated into regular initscripts rather than hanging out off
by themselves
Turns out we had forked it into a separate file (which we put in our
customization RPM...) and commented out the mounting of /mnt/live.
(Fixed in our RPM!)
Anyway, off-topic question: Do people have a suggestion for how to
auto-generate the thumbnails for Nautilus before the live CD runs. That
way, Nautilus will have pre-generated thumbnails for the images and
movies. That will look nice, plus avoid a TERRIBLE I/O storm caused by
Nautilus opening these folders and saying, "Oh, I'll make thumbnails now."
I'd like to script this process, like:
$ wget
http://example.com/lotsa-images.zip
$ unzip lotsa-images.zip
$ magically_create_thumbnails
and put the resulting directory into the ISO.
