livecd-tools 032 is being built for rawhide and will probably be used for
the nightly builds soon. Please speak up if you see any brokenness that might
be due to this update.

Is there a change log somewhere to check what changed for testing?

It turns out I messed up the tag and the Makefile version change is included
in the tar archive when it should have been done as a patch or a new tag.
Since I expect will do another tag soon I won't worry about it too much.
The other change that was just in the spec file is that parted is now
required. It is used by livecd-iso-to-disk.

Will this update include the
patches I sent to allow spins to be
generated without the liveuser?

I don't remember seeing those. I thought most of your patches was for
the livebase.ks rather than livecd-creator. I also didn't remember seeing
anything in the commit log that looked like your patches.
We are trying to get some more pending patches reviewed, and I think what
you are trying to do is in scope for that whether as part of livebase
or livecd-creator. I hadn't thought of that before you prompted me with
this message and had been thinking it was a separate issue (for spins instead
of livecd).

Oops never mind. The patches are in spin-kickstarts. I will blame it
on Monday.

Yeah, but we are trying to get some people together to review pending
livecd-creator patches, and I think some of them can probably help with
reviewing your stuff. On that low a level I think the livebase kickstart
and the livecd-creator tool are closely related.

One think I would like to talk about with livecd-creator would be a way
to setup the livecd to have uninterrupted boot.
The problem is per architecture this is difficult to do. x86_64 and
i686, you can add a total_timeout=1 flag to the syslinux.cfg file.
For systems that use grup, you could put in a md5 passwd that can not be
generated.
I originally wrote a patch for this for passing this from the kick start
but I am not thinking it could be done via the command.
The question is, am I the only one who thinks this is interesting?

It seems like most of the time if you can do stuff at the console you can
also mess with the media you are booting from. I don't see a lot of cases
where there is a security benefit.
Being able to reduce the wait time probably has more value in making it boot
faster. So I think having a way to do that would be useful.
