[Fedora-livecd-list] [PATCH] Re: local caching

Ok just to repost - here's the current delta to livecd-creator that I can't
live without.

The first part is answering "Why is my network pegged?" (though does anyone
know if there's a nice way to use something like Wireshark to get this
info?)

The second is defaulting to a persistent cache for downloads.  This is not
protected against concurrent execution - should we go ahead and add a
--nocache option for those people who have a local fedora mirror?


Finally one random tip unrelated to this mail: use "ionice -c3
livecd-creator [OPTIONS]" if you're actually trying to use your laptop at
the same time yum is making your CD.  I wonder if it would make sense to
just do this by default in yum?
