similar to: Build a LiveCD?

Hi, I'm currently writing an install script for an application, and my already limited Bash skills are a bit rusty. I want to check if a group exists, and if it doesn't, then create it. Only thing I found is: if [ grep medintux /etc/group ]; then continue else groupadd medintux fi Apparently I can't seem to "negate" the test, e. g. something like if !(grep medintux

Regarding http://twitter.com/CentOS/statuses/79336297579282432 I don't have a twitter account so I'm spamming the list since it looks on topic :) I'd like to see on the LiveCD the following: 1. latest dd_rescue 2. latest gparted 3. ntfs-3g 4. screen 5. mc How about you? -- Nux! www.nux.ro

This is an issue I've researched quite a bit on bug lists, and looked in the Syslinux Wiki for a way to do this, but haven't yet found a solution. 1) I have an existing Fedora 13 LiveCD which I burned to a CD and tested on a system without issue. 2) I then took that same ISO and dropped it in my pxelinux.cfg/default for being able to boot over the network. I made sure to extract the

I updated the livecd-tools package from version 013 to 014. This update introduces new interesting features like : - support for Xen kernel - built-in md5sum into the resulting LiveCD ISO - a new API See https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd/wiki/GetToolset for instructions on how to get this updated toolset. Since it is a major update, I expect some bugs. I am looking for feedback from

Hi, I like to add some of my own utilities, etc.. to the CentOS 5.0 LiveCD. IOW I am looking for a way to rebuild the livecd for specific purposes. Can someone reach me handle where to start? The only thing I've found so far is the out-of-the-box iso. Thanks, John

Hi all, I was wondering if it possible to have a Centos LiveCD installation boot from a Compact Flash in a embeded x86 (Wrap/Alix) platform *and* be able to save the changes made to the File System back to the Flash memory. So, the next time the LiveCD boots it will have all the changes made. The problem I'm trying yo solve is: - fast boot time - fast recovery when the Linux is shutdown

It appears that the liveCD (CentOS-5.2-i386-LoveCD.iso that I downloaded late last week) does not contain either netcat or tcpdump. Given the frequent use of a livecd for testing and debugging, those would seem to be key tools that should be available. Obviously a LiveCD can't contain everything anybody might ever want, but I'd give those two tools a pretty high priority; certainly much

Hi All, I have fully configured Centos 6.4 machine and my own application inside. I want to remastering my own machine so that can used to another machine without any configuration. any software like remastersys on Centos which can use for remastering Centos 6 ?

I asked before (about 2 weeks) about this, and was told it was in testing. I wonder when it will be available. My GF is considering leaving Debian due to it not recognizing her hardware very well, and I thought a CentOS 5 LiveCD might be a reasonable way for her to see whether CentOS might do a better job. If no LiveCD is forthcoming soon, then I'll burn a copy of the CentOS 4 LiveCD and let

This enables the ability to take the ovirt-node-image iso and deploy it to an iscsi disk. It also provides a sample pxe configuration for booting based on the iscsi root device.

Hello, I just downloaded the very great CentOS LiveCD and have some issue with the sum. when I do md5sum -c md5sum.livecd they simply don't match. But when check the size file with the file size posted by johnny in the announce http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2006-May/012905.html They both match (in 717729792 bytes) Probably I am doing something wrong, just to be sure

Greetings, I made a Fedora AOS livecd ISO image using fedora-aos.ks (from fedora-kickstarts-0.12.1-1.fc12.noarch) and livecd-tools-031-1.fc12.1.i686. This boots fine with qemu and directly from CD. I used the script from http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/livecd/attachments/20090922/85647312/attachment.py to edit the ISO image, and, even if I make no changes, I get the following error

I created both English and French release notes pages for the upcoming CentOS LiveCD 5.2: http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveCD5.2 http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveCD5.2/French The content is quite similar to the one from the CentOS LiveCD 5.1 except for these changes: - 5.1 -> 5.2 - file information (filename, size, md5sum, sha1sum) - updated package

This is the second generation of the edit-livecd tool that replaces our original bash script with a python version and aims to reuse as much as the livecd-creator libraries as possible. The main reason for the new creator class is to avoid the need for a kisckstart file in order to edit an existing livecd image. edit-livecd is useful for people who don't have the development and yum

I have been following these instructions: https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=501 to put a bunch of utilities (Clonezilla, SystemRescue, CentOS netinstall/rescue, etc.) on a single USB key. It works great for everything (including Ubuntu Live) except the CentOS 6.4 LiveCD. (You can see my postings at the bottom of the forum.) When booting the LiveCD, I got: Kernel panic - not syncing:

I'm upgrading my current RedHat9 installation to CentOS 4.4, so decided to buy the 4.4 LiveCD (rather than downloading and burning an ISO). I thought the LiveCD was simply a 'reduced' version and that I could install from it, but I find I don't actually know what to do with it and can't find any relatively simple instructions (I'm a bit of a newbie to linux but think
