Hey Patrice,
Together with Geerd-Dietger Hoffmann I am preparing a custom LiveCD for
giving presentations with your wiimote and CentOS 5.3. This solution was
specifically made for FrOSCon 2009 this weekend.
I implemented most of the suggestions I made previously, and integrated
both the multimedia packages (players/codecs) as well as the hardware
drivers from ELRepo.
To have sufficient diskspace for a CD (700MB) I had to remove some
productivity applications and clean up other items you normally would keep
on a LiveCD. I will make the kickstart-file available once I have finished
this work.
Thanks for your work, without it I would probably never have looked at it !
PS I am also planning to include your work as an example in my own
presentation for FrOSCon.
PS2 I had to make slight modifications to livecd-creator to make it work
with a newer syslinux. A newer syslinux has various advantages. I'll
probably make some more modifications to it after FrOSCon.
Kind regards,
