Minimal LiveCD

[Manoj Bhatta]

Hi,

I want to make minimal LiveCD without any GUI.
And after booting, i want to copy some data from LIVECD to my HDD.

I have tried using "fedora-livecd".
It boots up fine, but i could not logon.
How can i put my data into LiveCD and copy into HDD automatically.

Thanks for wonderful tool.


Thanks
Manoj

1. Store your data somewhere in liveCD build_install tree (for example
/var/tmp/...)
2. After boot, mount partition of your hdd.
3. Copy as usual

In my customized liveCD, all ext3, vfat & ntfs of all IDE hdd will be
mounted automatically.

I want to make it automatic. When system boots up, my (script/package) 
will copy my data to HDD.

You not need login to do that. Put your script into /etc/rc.d/rc.local
for example. It works automatically at boot, after all system scripts.
