[Fedora-livecd-list] How to add icons to desktop for a custom remix

[Jane Dogalt]

Actually, what you want to do is create a new file instead of appending to that one.  That is one of those '.d' directories, where you can have lots of files, each one doing a specific thing.  In this case, the liveinst one is owned by anaconda, and only meant to control the liveinst icon that gets added to the desktop.  I'd go with >> zz-gamestuffs.sh or whatever.  I assume the zz has something to do with being processed in alpha-sort order, so I'd keep that prefix.

-dmc
