Don't waste your time quibbling with Rahul about the erroneous
information in the article. He is very defensive when it comes to
articles and web pages. None of the FC6 repositories  have the rpm.
Various announcements say that livecd-tools would be available for
FC6. It would appear that it never got moved from development into
Extras.

Searched with Google and http://rpm.pbone.net and found the rpm at
these locations:

http://people.redhat.com/davidz/livecd/i386/livecd-tools-001-1.i386.rpm

http://fedoranews.org/tchung/livecd/livecd-tools/livecd-tools-001-2.fc6.i386.rpm

ftp://ftp.icm.edu.pl/vol/rzm1/linux-kde-redhat/kde-redhat/fedora/6/i386/RPMS.unstable/livecd-tools-001-1.fc6.i386.rpm

ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/apt.kde-redhat.org/kde-redhat/fedora/6/i386/RPMS.unstable/livecd-tools-001-1.fc6.i386.rpm

Don't know how current the packages are in relation to those available
for F7 or F8.
