boot from external CDROM - a requested feature

[Ian Brown]

Hello,
Sorry, may previous message was sent before finishing it...

I am evaluating kadischi live-cd and very impressed by it's functionality.

 I tried to boot a kadischi live-cd from an external USB CD rom and
it failed.
Other live-cd (like ubuntu or knoppix) do succeed to boot from
an external USB CDROM.

 Is it possible to add support for booting kadischi live cd  from an
external USB CDROM ?

Regards,
IB

It would be possible, yes.
However I myself do not have a USB CDROM to use.

I think we could probably come up with something if you visit the
#fedora-livecd channel via IRC at irc.freenode.net.

Right now find_live_cd.c has a good few devices it handles which is where
device support would be needed with Kadischi for your particular device.
