similar to: Making custom USB install media

Almost. I've read that, and I can get it to work. I guess I could phrase my question as "Given that the default image for 6.6 and 7.0 do this, how do I make custom media that does it to?" When I make custom media, it only works off an actual DVD. I need help making custom media that has that USB/EFI magic in it.

Can someone point me

Hello, I have made a bootable CD (with revisor) of CentOS 6. The CD boots and starts a game automatically (for an exhibition). I have one problem: The default sound settings are not correct. After the machine is booted, I have to open gnome-volume-control, select "Hardware", and select "Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output" under "Profile". How can I set this up

The fedora spins SIG https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Spins_SIG?rd=SIGs/Spins created/assembled a whole bunch of tools for doing just that. I used such machinery to do pretty much the same as what you are a number of years ago. I think there was even graphical tool called 'revisor'.

Greetings, I am almost tearing my hear out searching for revisor for Centos 6. I am aware that SL6 has it. The question is safe to use it?

I took a stab at making a bootable CentOS 5 Live USB pendrive and I ended up with a kernel panic. I was able to do this with a live CD of CentOS 4, but it seems the same procedure does not work for the new version. Has anyone been able to accomplish this? Any and all thoughts are apprecicated! Mark
