I've had a lot of luck filling the ks %post are with customizations, yum updating, adding custom packages, etc.
Also getting comfortable modifying the /livecd/kadischi.tar.gz files to populate /root with some needed KDE menus and scripts, etc. Also am getting a handle on the py and sh scripts.
I've noticed I have to append "smp" to the kernel version in kadischi.py to get an smp kernel. Maybe there could be a command line option for smp? Just an idea.
Right now I'm trying to come up with some way to speed up X11 and the desktop launch. It seems pretty slow compared to knoppix. I assume it's the decompression of the lib and bin files, not sure.
Has anyone come up with a way to speed things up? I'm guessing I can either save some bins and libs to media uncompressed (just as the kernel, kadaschi.tar.gz, initrd, isolinux, etc. are) or maybe decompress tarballs on startup into a ramdisk or some such.
Any ideas or success stories are appreciated.
