Right, I've finally reached the point in my project where I'm ready to
begin creating the live cd (woo!).
A few questions:
1) I need livna to begin with (haven't converted files to theora/ogg
yet). When I specify livna in the ks using the mirrorlist from my
livna.repo file, it hangs.
Hmm, what does the kickstart section with regards to the repository
configuration look like?
2) copy_dir goes in the revisor.conf file right?
Yes, in the model configuration, e.g.:
[f9-i386-foo]
description=(...)
(...)
copy_dir=/tmp (which btw in general is a bad location to choose for
copy_dir because of all the other bits that are in there, but OK)
3) Where does this copy the data too? For now I need it to be copied
to the home directory of the livecd's user.
Everything in the copy_dir directory tree should be copied over "/" on
the live system.
Kind regards,
